All day today it has been clearing my last visited marks. So it says there aren't any new threads, even though there are.

Weird.

Look, the people who say 'we shouldn't try' don't get to bring in 'a different point of view' until the question is, 'can we borrow your money?'. It's a big shit pile-on against every plan or question that doesn't involve their money. It doesn't involve their fucking money to ask how many people are...

Why does any discussion of space always involve the 'not worth the money' crowd? What do you have to contribute to the conversation? We'll never have the technology to create self-sustaining space endeavors until we try. So waiting to try until we do is a catch-22. And the economic value will always...

Someone could argue the chances were merely miniscule, not zero.

And I have a letter from a crazy person ranting about atheists who speaks english natively that will argue against your word choice position.

I don't see any reason why not to allow varied 'has minions' classes...

...But at the same time, there's no reason to have more than one summoner in the basic set.

Actually, it reads very much more like someone who has a mental disorder such as attention deficit or psychosis; the choppy, dragging sentences are little bits of the conscious mind trying to form concepts that aren't tainted by their condition.

I pointed out that we have robots on Mars right now. They've run far longer than anyone had dared expect. But...

Bananas and coconuts are the reason that you can't move back to the isles that were bombed. They collect the radioactive potassium and cesium.

Those aren't really 'false' alerts, if they trigger the radiation sensors. o-o

Squishiness isn't even a balancing factor, anyhow, unless you expect people to be knocked out of combat via hit point loss frequently - as in, more than once per battle.
