Honestly, it's a toss up between Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. I put so much time into both of those games. I'm pretty sure that if I took the hours that I dedicated to those games and applied them towards a college degree, I would be well on my way to a doctorate lol The reason for KotOR is that it had an immense amount of replay value. Nearly every choice you made in the game affected the way the game would turn out, as well as how the game would play. The Dark Side would give you some awesome power-ups to doing damage, while playing light side would make you nearly invincible if you played right. There was a wealth of story as well. The reason for Morrowind is that the game was one of the best open world games ever. The tutorial was long enough to teach you the basics, but short enough that it didn't feel as if the game was an overbearing mother. It placed you in the game, and you got to decide how you wanted to play it. You want to be a great warrior who can take down even the strongest of enemies without breaking a sweat? Go right ahead. Want to be the strongest mage ever? Go for it. Want to be so stealthy that you can sneak up on someone who's looking in your direction? You can do that too. There were also a ton of game-enhancing glitches that made things more interesting as well. That's great news! And if you mean book/band, then my favorite book is Halo: First Strike and my favorite band is a toss-up between Disturbed and Mudvayne.

Members of the Month get a 'wish'. If it's feasible, we grant it. Ash wanted a Hello Kitty smiley, and we said, "sure".

These questions appear to be deep, but are actually aren't. 1. Unanswerable. The question assumes that everything has a reason to it, when there might not be a reason at all. There are consequences to actions, true, but a reason implies intent. If there is no intent, then there can be no 'why'. 2. Reality is relative to the observer. In other words, a schizophrenic's reality differs from your own but since they appear in your reality, you call their reality a false reality. So yes, to you the universe is real. 3. Unanswerable. If we didn't, we would have no way of knowing for sure unless whatever was controlling us wanted us to. If we do, we have no way of confirming that we actually do unless there is a higher power in which to ask, and even if there were they could lie about it.

GSD is far better than me at Halo. Well, if the background check, title insurance, and deeds/attorneys count as fees then that's (350+400+250)+8,690.40 = 9,690.40 And 9,690.40/90,000 = 10.76 Which rounds up to 10.8 About a hundred.

The name change game. I think it was Absolute Dog. Their ego suffers and they see being corrected as usurping what little authority they have, generally.

You want one that's lightweight enough for you to be able to control easily and that you will be able to remove it from your leg if you tip over. I'd suggest a low-power dirt-bike at first so you can get the hang of handling a motorcycle, and then upgrading to whatever else you want to learn to ride from there.

That is completely dependent on the individuals listening to the music. There are a couple of decent ones, like Windows Movie Maker 2012. However, each one has it's own set of limitations and such. Doing a google search for 'free video editing software' and some trial and error will get you on the right track to one you can use. As for animations, it's something you need to learn how to do to be able to do it. Roosterteeth hired someone to make that animation, and I'm sure they had experience with animating. The only time you need to get a driver's license for another state is if you become a resident of that state (i.e. live there for over 90 days). However, that's rarely enforced. As long as your DL is not expired or hasn't been revoked then you'll be fine. The only additional testing you'd have to take is if you wanted to get a California driver's license.

Widow and widower come from the 'Old English' words wydewe and wydewa. It's actually the other way around, the common name for the Latrodectus spiders comes from the word widow, rather than the word widow coming from the common name of the Latrodectus spider. The reason the spider is named 'black widow' is because after mating the female spider will kill and eat her mate, thereby making her a widow in a most gruesome manner. Interestingly enough, in some societies women prosper after becoming widows. So there have been cases of women murdering their husbands for financial gain, or so that they can remarry someone else without losing face in a divorce. These women are called 'black widows' after the spider. So the word 'widow' predates the naming of the Latrodectus spider 'black widow', but the term 'black widow' that is used to describe wife/husband fratricide comes directly from the spiders behavior.

Very rarely, but yes I do.

Offbeat Items, Introductions/Goodbyes, and the Clan Recruitment/Advertising sections of the forum. 1. RSR has been pretty quiet about the Spring Update so far, but there are a couple of things that have yet to be rolled out. 2. We assume the reason GSD doesn't talk much is because of shyness.

That's who I thought it could be as well, but I didn't see massive scarring on his neck. Agent Maine is also bald and has a tattoo on his skull: The guy who we saw had a half head of hair and different tattoos than Maine did. There's also a suspicious lack of scarring on his neck, where Agent Maine was shot quite a few times. Which is why he isn't able to talk. So no, I don't think it's Maine. Unless, of course, this is an oversight.

I like Pepsi more than coke, but there doesn't appear to be Vanilla Pepsi anymore. So it's basically a tie. There are plenty of people that think that you can grow taller naturally, even past the age where you normally quit growing. However, there isn't a healthy way to do so. To legitimately grow after your pituitary gland has finished producing HGH (Human Growth Hormone) would require exercise with injections of HGH or surgery. HGH is the slow route, and even then it's not guaranteed to make you taller. It will definitely build a ton of muscle mass though. You have to get the dose just right, which means you have to go through the proper channels. Otherwise, you may experience many of the same side effects as other performance enhancing drugs. Surgery is the quicker way, but it is excruciatingly painful. There's also some side effects, such as having weaker bones in your legs due to how the surgery works. Basically they break the bones in your legs and set them close enough to where they can knit, but far enough to add some height. Already answered your question. Nope, I think it's a new character. Probably one we haven't seen before, or only saw once.

Post a lot. I basically gave my opinion on everything that I had an opinion on. When Trusted became a normal member rank (it used to be mod's choice instead of based on post count) I already had the post count and immediately became trusted. Same with Dedicated, actually. 1. Me 'liking to ban' is actually a joke based on the number of bans I hand out. I am always completely fair with the punishment I hand out, and have actually banned people that were my friends because they broke the rules. I don't believe in coddling rule-breakers by giving them a near unlimited amount of chances to change their ways, and so it seems like I enjoy banning people. I also have no problem banning people, which further supports the illusion that I enjoy it. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it's satisfying to ban people lol but I only 'like' it when it's a joke. Like banning the staff from the shoutbox. 2. Oh geez, there's a lot of them. Probably the most awkward was when I was in High School, I had a brief fling with a girl who was in my class. We became pretty good friends, but then a few months later I had another fling with a girl who was a senior. Turns out they were sisters, and I had no idea before-hand. I found out after they did, and we agreed not to hang out anymore lol

Waffles. Pancakes give me indigestion for some reason, but waffles don't and are delicious. Nope. Well, maybe. Both Twam and GSD have youtube channels, and there's a video out there that may or may not be Twam. However, since it's completely unconfirmed I'm gonna say no I haven't.

1. No. Living beings are not garbage or waste and therefor are not 'litter'. Fun pun though. 2. Of course there would be. They would be going on strike against the signs they were currently making (i.e. street signs, election signs, etc.) so that would not prevent them from making signs on principle. I would wager they'd be expertly crafted signs as well. 3. Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia* actually, and because the root words are large. Also, probably as a bit of a joke. There's also sesquipedalophobia, which also means the fear of long words but is much shorter, which further supports the theory that hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia was originally created as a joke. sesquipedalophobia and hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia are synonyms, and are part of a broader phobia known as logophobia, the obsessive fear of words. 4. your* bicycle wheel, and that entirely depends on how large the hill is and the size of your wheels.

Absolute Dog says he has. I haven't personally (I think, but there's a youtube video that may or may not be him on his youtube channel). Depends on the size of the elephant, the size and grade of sandpaper, whether you're using a machine or doing it by hand, and whether or not the elephant is alive during the sandpapering.

That completely depends on your genetics and there isn't an actual figure. My beard has literally every naturally occurring color of hair when it's grown out, but for some reason appears red from a distance. What you call trouble I call entertainment. I created the list in boot camp, during the very little down-time we had. I believe it was a group effort, and the reason is that during transit normal bubble wrap can pop, causing it to be useless for actual protection. Unpoppable bubble wrap would be able to offer the protection needed for fragile packages. Yeah, it's no fun compared to it's predecessor, but it does the original job better.

At least 701 First Person Shooter games and at least 210 Third Person Shooter games for a total of at least 911 First and Third person shooter games that qualify in that genre. Here's the lists of fps and tps games: FPS TPS I have several. Here are a few. Several of those are jokes, but still. Once again ;P A wood-chuck would chuck as much wood as a wood-chuck could chuck if a wood-chuck could chuck wood. I wouldn't say it's annoying, but it is the most asked question on these threads lol Definitely me.

If you don't have it already, then there's no way for you to get it.

Jarmila Kratochvílová and the time is 1:53.28. It was set in 1983.

UNSC Spartan II is correct.

Basically means either the disc has an issue with it, your system cache has an issue, or the disc drive itself has an issue. Here's the MS Support article: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/errors/error-code-03-80-00 It lists the troubleshooting steps necessary to resolve the issue. If the disc is damaged though, you may have to get another copy of Reach or get the GoD version. Unfortunately there is literally no way to know for certain. The battles were chaotic, to say the least, and ammunition wasn't kept track of as well as one might imagine it being. Most governments kept a good count of how many artillery shells were used, primarily because of the expense and size of them, but nobody kept track of the number of bullets, arrows (possibility but unlikely), or any other 'throwaway' ammunition like that. As far as why no one counted, probably because no one really cared. To most of the nations involved, it seemed that WWII was going to be the end of the world. A much more impending and pressing end than Y2K, 2012, or any other predicted end of the world. Counting little balls of lead as they were fired would have been trivial at best.

1. I got injured and there was a lot of stuff going on with my family back home, so when they offered it I said okay. Either that or spend over 6 months being a drain on the government, which I didn't want to do. 2. Primarily pay. Each of those jobs had a higher pay than the last. With the exception of insurance salesman to roofer, because I had to quit my job due to a lack of feasible transportation. Me. Duh.

At the moment I'm unemployed due to a long illness, but I don't have a specific career that I want to be in (except game design, but I can't afford the schooling necessary). As long as I don't feel as if I'm being cheated at my job, I usually enjoy it, and I'm a jack of all trades. So far I've been: A United States Marine (General Under Honorable Discharge) A Walmart Deli Associate A Recycling Specialist Insurance Salesman A Roofer A General Contractor's Apprentice First and Second Tier Technical Support under contract for Apple I've never been fired (or even close to being fired) and I've never found a job that I couldn't do with a bit of training.
