Warmachine and You
Played a quickie with Denis this weekend, it ended poorly for everyone's favorite hottie, Sorcha. She was unceremoniously shot 8 times in the back while on the ground by some gutless long-gunners while she was recovering from a passing eathquake. Which brings up my next question about Warmachine and you.
Denis and I play our games to the death of the warcaster, and the games seem to end rather shortly, and without any other troops really getting in the mix at all. We both like to see what the casters can do, but it seems the first person to move the caster into a position to really be used effectively, they are counterattacked and smeared across the earth.
While it is fun, it leaves somewhat of a empty feeling when it is all done and said, at least for me. We have these kick ass mini's and all this firepower and brute strength on the board, and it comes down to who moves their caster out from behind the wall of steel first.
Is this your experience, too? Of course, this will all change when we start to play scenarios, and if we ever use two casters. I didn't really follow either game played at GenCon so I don't know how it worked out there.
Either way, it is fun, and I am still addicted, I was just wondering if there Denis and I were missing something, since we only play each other.

Some stupid kid
now ownzorz "Lil Rudy" on AOL and AIM. I guess i still had it in my system and for some odd reason i thought it was rudy. He was just full of sugar and spice as all pre-teen 10 year olds are these days and can't spell worth a dime.
sooooo... i've made my decision, and i'm importing a bunch of vitamins to the philippines. Its my first order, so i hope it'll pan out. Investment is always risky, and I wish there was 100% chance that I know exactly if I'll be able to sell any of it. But either i'll be extremely healthy with 5 years supply of multi vitamins or not! Of course if I'm stuck with 5 years of multis, i will gladly ensure my fellow AT team members health as well!
I'll be back on the 21st and so i will call whoever is in town and up for gaming. Actually I'll be in Las vegas with my mom but, i'll be back by end of year. Any new years parties invites????

Wait -- I thought Dave Chappelle went nutz and there's no more show? Did he get it back together? Or is this just some stuff that they filmed before his meltdown? (Ie, when he went nutz.)
Jael -- one more thing about SoCal Gencon, perhaps the most important and saddest thing -- NO ASIAN PORN STARS. Sorry buddy.
PS Fremont is still full of crazy horny chicks -- pretty much overrun by this time -- who will play hero to Fremont now?

That's an annoying hot dog!
Normally I'd sleep until 9:30 or so but this morning I woke up as 7:30 and thought, "I'd fired up as fuck to prime some miniatures!" So that's what I'm gonna do! I have these huge bags under my eyes, too, it's aweomse ( <-- British spelling).
Update! Eric, I forgot to mention -- you were right about the Rick James episode of the Chapelle Show. That was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in years. I wish I had two extra hands, so I could give four thumbs up!

Click this link, then stare at the middle of the picture for as long as you can without blinking. I swear, I think I just had an acid trip or something. (Promise, no ghouls jumping out at you or other such stupid shit)..
TRIPPY! CLICK MEH!
TRIPPY! CLICK MEH!

how's everything smokin'?
Just wanted to drop a quick line. I see the WOW fever has swept back. Check out this add-on website curse-gaming.com. Can't believe after a year, WOW is still the top 2 searches on the yahoo google search engine under the game category. Chicks in wow? Hot chicks?... I dunno.
Sorry to hear your having so much virus problems with your computer rude. We have trend micro as a virus scanner for the company, but honestly I think there's still a few undetected viruses in my computer that the program hasn't picked up. I'm thinking of switching to Norton.
As for factory life, recently I moved, after experiencing a break-in to the house, to the factory complex. It's more secure, I get a pre-modern room instead of a pre-historic house, and there is running elec, water, cable access, dsl and limited other occupants! So considering it's in the philippines, it's a high tech dormatory. My roomates are the best part. Next door, is two guys from malay, one of whom is the owner of magnatron factory for a type of semicon paste screen applicator thingamabob, drinks a lot of whisky and walks around the house with a big beer belly, and the other guy is outgoing, scuba diving, cave exploring, outdoor type. No one here is a gamer, however. It's a rare trait so i haven't done much gaming. My building mates are quite characters and it's interesting to find out stuff about malaysia and they have never been to the US. I always thought EVERYONE must have been or seen the US. MUST. So wrong, it's such a funny notion.

there was not enough so cal convention coverage.

Wow Rude, 12 worms and trojans? One for every month of the year! I hereby appoint you The Action Team's official Internet Security Expert. Maybe you could load a different virus onto your system every day of December leading up to Christmas. It would be an advent calendar of infection!
I love Rocky Road ice cream. Every time I eat a bowl of it I am immediately tempted to eat another.
Enron and I fortified ourselves with pizza (Extreme Pizza!) and delicious beer and went to it with his new Merc army yesterday. All in all a good showing by the new guy. Although I trounced him my first game, when we called the second game on time things were very even, with I would say the advantage leading towards him! Anyway we're talking about building some terrain come the new year! My dream of building a 30mm scale reproduction of Edwardian London may soon be realized!

yeah the trend micro scanner is the one I used initially to find all the crap on my computer. Would also help if I didn't download random torrents. And after d/ling them, when I go to execute them, nothing happens. Yup! I'm sure I infected the hell outta myself that way a few times. Oh well! Comp is CLEAN as all shit now, so time to rebuild!
Norton sucks anyway.
You can get better (and free) complete system scans through Trend Micro's free online scanner. That and Spybot Search & Destroy (also free) together will kill about 98% of the shit you can pick up. You can take it up to 99.9% by getting your hands on the (free free free) CWShredder application. Those three things combined have only failed to completely clean any system I've gone into in very very rare circumstances.
And, they don't imbed themselves into every orifice of your computer, causing rectal bleeding and ass herpes when you try to remove them (like Norton).
