He brought Richard there too, though. Richard is a candidate. The Man in Black as Locke tells him so, and also, chooses not to, or cannot kill him when he first arrives in the island. To respond to someone above who suggested that maybe candidates can enter Jacob's home whenever, Richard never could, and he was…

When were they invited?

Could be an indentured servant, too..

And, Sawyer, like Jacob, would greet a strange intruder by roughing him up a little bit.

I think it was just to symbolize the yin/yang them to the whole show, that even in that place of death and evil, something vibrant and alive and beautiful could exist - the butterfly.

Why did the man in black have to wait 140 years before enacting his plan?

I thought GTA4 was awesome.

Spike room on hard was ridiculous. So was the fight against the flaming cerberus that shot the exploding dogs at you while you had to fight those asshole jackals. So were the multiple Zeus battles.

Anyone who says this game is too easy: play it on hard. On hard, this game is fucking ridiculous at some points.
