@LucasReis - LOCK2K: I'm a huge dork, so I'm really into tabletop RPGs, wargames, and collectible card games. The WoW Trading Card Game is particularly fun, although I don't actually enjoy playing WoW. I'm also a minor god of Foosball, a skill that only seems to come in handy when everyone around is incredibly drunk.

@arionfrost: Ah, I'll have to grab it when I get home. Sorry, this Battle.net stuff takes some getting used to.

@iceph03nix: Because having spherical wooden outdoor speakers is cool, dude. Sometimes you've gotta just do something for the sheer awesomeness of it all.

@Archaotic: 4 is totally Cut Man. It's kinda subtle, but the shape of his hat, the shape of his weapon, and the awesome collection of scissors subtly shoved into his belt give it away.

@Klausaidon: Haha, I've been a professional programmer for years now. The tool just doesn't seem to actually do what it says it's doing sometimes, especially when you dig deeper and deeper into triggers. It is fun though - when I don't want to throw my monitor through a window.

This is sort of only tangentially related, but...damn, the SC II map editor is amazing, but it seems loaded with bugs. I mean, when events are triggered, it seems almost random the order the program executes them - making a lot of the "last created [object]" commands pretty much useless. All I'm trying to do is make

@itsavw: This system would be ideal, but probably a huuuuge pain in the ass to implement - especially after they already spent so much time rebuilding Battle.net.

@ClaudioIphigenia: Best decision? Buying a PS3 on a whim at the mall. Worst decision? Buying Animal Crossing instead of Beyond Good and Evil for the 'Cube.....*sob*

@arionfrost: It would probably be a good time, beating the hell out of each other after arguing over dumb crap in the comments. Name's Nekheny on bnet (okay, it's actually NEKHENY - I had no idea that caps lock was on, doesn't help that all the text in the GUI is capitalized so I figured it was a stylistic thing.)

@bakura: Bold tags - you type [less-than sign]b[greater-than sign]whatever you want bold goes in here [less-than sign]\b[greater-than sign].

Staying away from the water might save you from Cthulhu, but what protects you from the Colour Out of Space? Nothing. Nothing can save you from the horrors of beyond.

@apierion: Thanks for the clarification - I thought something was amiss with the article, but you've explained what it was.

@Gravidos: Eighteen pounds?! Jeez, they're like six bucks here I thought...

@drivenbyart: Yeah, but recent Wizards of the Coast-sponsored software sucks all kinds of ass. A lot of the more famous DnD games are from the TSR era for this very reason.....Actually, only Neverwinter Nights and its sequel were built using rules from WotC.

@Walking Eye!:The Business-Casual Gamer: If you have time, let them know that they seem new and offer some tips - maybe even offering up a rematch after they get a chance to fast-forward through the replay?

@Fernando Jorge: I never beat Planescape: Torment or most of the other isometric DnD 2nd Edition based RPGs. If you never played them when they were first out, they're really hard to get into - some of the mechanics have aged extremely poorly.

Man, a game with combat based on DnD 4.0 would be so awesome....too bad it will likely never happen.

@Cururu: Ah, thanks. I heard the "hooks" for both of those, but didn't know where to find the ring.

@SolusArtifex: Yeah - it seems a lot of higher-tech units have in-jokes strewn throughout their dialogue.
