The Gaming Den

The TRO did in fact hit the stree... well, the internet, anyway. It has yet to be in dead-tree format, but who knows? I like how you backpedal so well. Hard copy is for sale at GenCon. [/img] And yet you still have not PMd me for my addy. Don't want your apology in person? Heh. Cent13 You know, Why...

Back on track.

Why do people think that the Jihad is "increadible"?

One of the colleges I was looking into back when I thought I could go on to my 4 year degree would have let me in solely by affirmative action. It was a predominately black college that needed more white people because of it. Honestly, if I could hack it I would have gone there over the local colle...

Duane Loose was responsible for a lot of that art. He had (has) a very distinctive style that makes the drawings look like they were done on a drafting table.

I am a big fan of his work.

Clutch is another reason the game is not a roaring success. What is wrong with BattleTech? Well, one thing is the hubris of the High Priesthood, those heads having been turned by fanboy worship. That's kind of insulting F.T. I was never in any "High Priesthood". The sole reason I founded ...

Maybe it is time that the truth was brought out. The story isn't pretty though, as it involves:

1. BattleTech
2. A sociopathic egomaniac
3. A sealed basement
4. Two lonely sailors on shore leave
5. Target Practice
6. A fellow with "Crazy Eyes".
7. A twitchy oriental
8. Murder

I don't think you would, Clutch. Because if I did, I think every swinging dick on this forum would hit the Ignore button on you in one hell of a hurry. Your ego had already taken over a lot of your life by May of 2003 - it doesn't appear things have improved since then. My GOD. We trusted you, look...

You can call me The Butcher. Ah yes. The man who ordered the destruction of a marked ambulance full of wounded....."Just in case." Anyway, I think I qualified my statement as to why I think there is "too much mech" in BattleTech. I know that statement seems counterintuitive, but...

The absolute last thing this game needs is another Technical Readout. Fan-Produced or otherwise. But then again, I've always despised custom designs outside of battlefield jury-rigging and Solaris VII. So, it's a personal bias. I'm a miniatures guy. I enjoy assembling and painting miniatures. I thin...

Maricopa doesn't even border Mexico. Why isn't there a similar rise in crime inside urban Phoenix, or Tuscon, or San Diego and subsequent lack of drop of violent crime? Where are the parallels? Where are your facts? Golly. I honestly cannot respond to that with a civil tongue. Crissa. Keep your fee...

My conclusion is - 4) Therefore, he has used his position as sheriff, his widespread local popularity, and the overall inefficiency of federal law enforcement to his advantage to avoid/delay the righteous punishment that must surely follow his manifest wickedness. The fact that he is *getting away ...

I don't live in the "Google" world. I live in the real life world. Clutch What does that even mean? What does that have to do with your failure to engage in even the most basic research RE: Arpaio's appalling actions? Arpaio is the Sheriff of the fifth largest and one of the most politica...

Strangely, the fact that Arpaio has a really terrible record comparing arrests to successful prosecution hasn't gotten the Feds much involved past the thousands of lawsuits against him and his county. I don't want to say you're an idiot, Clutch, but... You're an idiot. Anyone could have typed somet...

Of course, he could just arrest his political opposition. I'm sorry Crissa, but I work in Federal Law enforcement and this is nonsense. Do you have any idea how raging a hard on the FBI has for busting crooked cops? If there is one iota of truth to these allegations, then the FBI is up that Sheriff...

Okay, so I've been following the discussion of illegal immigration here, and I have to ask what the liberal side plans to do about it. I've gotten the impression from the brief search I did that they want to reform the system to make it easier for the people we want to immigrate get in. But that on...

What? Do you have any proof of that?

C'mon, insult me all you want, but don't lie about my position.

I did infer a bit. I have a date tonight, so we can debate more tomorrow.

CLUTCH, shut up... at least in regards to Israel/Palestine. Blaming Arab nations for not encouraging the Palestinians to fight harder is a strange thing to advocate when you're also taking the position that a Ghandi would solve all their problems. Thing is, it wouldn't - Israel is never giving up t...

I can only assume he meant "European funded death camp" Because that would actually make sense. EDIT: Clutch, You know how we could save all the poor mexicans being harrassed in Arizona? We could move them all to Mexico! Oh wait, forced deportation is not a solution to people being asshol...

If the local sheriffs didn't act like that (Arpaio) the impression would fade away. All the training in the world doesn't change the sheer facts that driving while brown is still a crime in some places, that police still use their weapons not in defense of the law but as punishment for not heeling ...

However, given the fact that the entire culture is made of people who are trying to express themselves and be their own person regardless of cultural norms, it's more appropriate to think of it as an anti-culture, I suppose...

I don't know. To criticize the Jewish State is to be anti-semetic to a lot of folks. Israel is the Jewish State.

The truth is often politically incorrect.

In response to accusations of controlling the media, Jews try to cancel Oliver Stone's upcoming series. Irony overload.
