    5v5 Tournament ???

    Oh hey a tournament dealy but you seem to be full up. Ah, well, if anyone needs a ringer I can't promise that I'll do well but I can promise that I'll show up! My body is warm and my butt is in my seat, if that's what you're looking for I'm your man.

    Death of Diplomacy

    We can learn from history that religion has absolutely nothing to do with stability. In Egypt specifically the problem has nothing to do with religion. The military is unwilling to give up power and the citizens aren't happy with the way their government is representing them. The fact that one...

    Death of Diplomacy

    No, we don't. Our rights and freedoms are fundamentally different than the USA's all based on the idea that equality does not create equity and in fact, equality frequently creates discriminatory practices.

    Death of Diplomacy

    That would completely undermine our international reputation as neutral peace makers and diplomats.

    Wealth distribution in America

    The problem was that corporations were donating vast sums of money to political candidates, which was highly illegal. The only other solution was to prosecute the offenders. Honestly declaring businesses sentient beings was probably the easiest way to do it.

    Wealth distribution in America

    The problem is the debate itself. Capitalism invites us to moralize wealth because it equates hard work and risk taking with its generation. The traditional narrative is that you start your own business, work 18 hour days 6 days a week (taking Sunday off for church obviously) and eventually...

    Pay Day 2

    One of those games I would absolutely love to get but then I remember that everyone I know is completely distractible and won't play any game for more than 2 weeks.

    Steam Family Sharing

    I'm really excited for this, I get kicked off steam all the time because I was dumb enough to buy my mother games through my own account.

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    It really doesn't. It expands the Freedom, Order and Autocracy social policies into much larger and more important trees but absolutely fails to capture the differences between each. It would honestly be more accurate to describe the ideologies as Communism, Fascism and AMERICA FUCK YEAH. Can...

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    Wow, I guess civ games have always lacked a... nuanced approach to political ideologies.

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    4 was amazing once Beyond the Sword came out. Its aged terribly but civ games always do.

    MAP ROTATION YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    Aztec is pretty decent providing both teams cling to a minimum level of competence. But, you know, pubs. Assault was made with 5v5 matches in mind and is tolerable in that setting. There are a half dozen extremely strong camping spots inside the building, taking someone out opens up whatever...

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    One of the funny things about civ5 is that the game is MUCH faster on higher difficulties. Since the AI stops being a bunch of useless twats around level 5 (hard) you can actually sell or trade things to them and an extra ~720 gold every 30 turns is beyond helpful.

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    Okay, so I'm gathering people have played once or twice and then never again. Well, if you decide to give it another go I strongly suggest making sure you've at least upgraded to Civ5 gold which gets you all the DLC and the first expansion. Gods and Kings (the first expansion) VASTLY improved...

    Anyone playing Civilization 5?

    Love this game, I managed to book *pulls up the tab* oh god 371 hours in it over the the last 6 months. In my defense I'm pretty sure I left it running for a week while I was out of town for work. Sooo, anyone else play it?

    A Multitasking Video Game Makes Old Brains Act Younger

    I'm all for making them play Starcraft. Bonus, everyone knows you're better at RTS' when you're drunk

    MAP ROTATION YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    I've always considered CS (and its sequels/expansions) to be particularly difficult to create maps for. Look at the best maps and you'll notice that once you've learned them they come with a great deal of subtlety and all of which is impeccably balanced, both for 10 man and 40 man games. As much...

    MAP ROTATION YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    I notice the stutter issues anywhere you can see the background of the map.

    MAP ROTATION YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    Yup, hate that map. I get terrible frame drops on it and I'm gathering that's a pretty common complaint on that map post patch. It's also got way too many cramped corridors for 32 people.
