Yup, and then South Carmain started imitating Gboy after I got Gboy over as a main event heel.

Could you expand on why you like it so much, Sweaty? I found it to be okay but didn't feel the hype was justified. By gaming standards the story wasn't bad, but I didn't think it was worthy of the accolades the game received. As you say it's more of an interactive novel, but compared to a novel the plot is less than substandard. The interactivity does elevate the plot, but also detracts with the clumsily shoehorned and somewhat tedious gameplay. The pacing and direction were pretty terrible at times too.
That said it is worth trying. It's short, cheap, and a relatively unique experience. And it is better than the abomination that was Hotel Dusk. I got because of all the praise it got at the Dojo (grrr!). Gaming has some immense and yet untapped potential as a storytelling medium. To The Moon does show glimpses of that potential but I dunno. I think the bar for praise should be higher than To The Moon jumped.

Thanks for the extensive reply Ginger, very interesting indeed. I tend to pretty much agree with everything you wrote (with the exception of your usage of the term "mulatto"). So I was at a toilet yesterday, as you do. I'll withhold the details of what I was doing but when I was done I washed my hands, as you do. While I was drying my hands, a guy came into the toilet scatting (Pat, fuck off. Not what you think despite the unfortunate phrasing) and it was Bobby himself. True story! No doubt you've wondered if Grammy winners still urinate. I can confirm yes, they do. Don't tell him that Hmmmmm Alright. His absence speaks volumes.

;D Speaking of race and colour. What is everyone's opinion on the "post racial society"? Globalisation is clearly threatening to slowly break down national and racial barriers, potentially. But is this desirable in ya'll opinions, or will it mean a future of bland homogenisation, stripping us of our cultural diversity and racial heritage? Personally, I think this breakdown is probably a necessary, I have little love for national or racial barriers, but I am surprised at how attached some people seem to be to them. I think people need to realise that at the fundamental level we are all exactly the same, regardless of race, geography, or indeed gender . It's bound to happen, eventually. And there'll be pros and cons. I'd guess more pros than cons but I'm not wise enough to try guess the butterfly effect of these continued changes politically. I'll leave that for beeds to muse. That said, despite the whinging of so many, this is surely the greatest time ever to be a living human and the growing acceptance of diversity and the breaking of barriers sure appears to be a giant factor in that. Besides, can anything that gives us more and more mulatto butts be a bad thing overall? I'm not as optimistic in regards to this, and I'll just look at this from one angle to tell you for why. It's killing languages, and eventually I can envisage a time where only a handful are still used. That wont happen any time soon, but if the effect it's having on minor languages spreads to more widely used ones I can surely see them dying too. In Ireland, Gaeilge is on it's death bed and close to the point of no return. This is only anecdotal but the mindset of the yoofs today and recent years (and I include younger me in this bracket, shamefully) is that they only see language in practical, communicative terms. Why learn it when you can talk to others in English anyway? That resistance, along with dreadful teaching methods leads to hardly anyone being able to speak it, despite it being a compulsory subject throughout the entirety of school. I can see that state of mind spreading to other nations eventually. Why continue to speak Mongolian/Lettish/A.N. Other when you can talk to so many more with English/Mandarin etc. To spread the thoughts wider, this is also affecting the cultural behemoth that is Eurovision. Despite it's critics, I love it. I love the glimpses into the quirky differences each culture. I love hearing the variety in languages, how they sound, how their sound affects the choice of melodies etc. Sadly, year after year countries are abandoning such choices in favour of, actually to paraphrase you earlier "bland homogenisation, stripped of their cultural diversity and racial heritage". The number of forgettable English sung tunes is disheartening. Gimme more of this, please! And less of this. Despite all this, I'm not predicting the end of all cultural diversity. The combining of cultures and ideas has, and will continue to, bring us exciting and brilliant new things. I just fear it being diminished overall in time. Language is such a vital element of the variety of arts and opinions the world over that any loss can only leave us poorer. As one example - while even translated into English "Gitanjali" is a tremendous work of art, so much is lost such as the melodies, the phonetics. The free verse of the translations inhibited the marvellous lyrical qualities of the Bengali originals. I have to assume even the sentiment was diminished. I wont even get into the effect the wider culture had on the writings and what effect changes there might have on art. The only point I'm making here is that the sounds and definitions available to him in Bengali allowed him to create art that's next to, if not impossible, to write in English. It'd be a shame for differences like that to be lost. I guess in short, so far it's all been a great thing. After all, would Bobby McFerrin be the God he is without being influenced by the variety of sounds the world over we now have access to? I just fear a future Bobby McFerrin wont have the same range of sounds to influence him that current Bobby has. In conclusion, Bobby McFerrin is the pinnacle of human arts; of humanity itself. That so huh? Then, aaah, care to muse about any *ahem* siblings you may have of the female variety? Some of the early SUcKers claim to know Pat personally. However I do not know if they were being honest about it, or if the existence "Pat" is an elaborate prank by them.

The giant gap between the top 2 and the rest is somewhat interesting, and more people voting for Shenmue II HD over the first game seems a little strange. Still, tis nice every so often to let the cynicism fade and just enjoy how bigShenmue's vote penis is on these things. I wont vote, but I will post in this topic which will bring many many eyes from my many many guest fans. You're welcome.

not really, always got average grades Sometimes the most gifted children get the lowest grades...I can attest to this truth. It was probably around that time when SUcK really started warping him. Credit where it's due, loike.

You disappeared for a good few months there. Dude, too far. I know we joke around to but say the months without me were good? You hurt me. I thought we were forming a tight bond too

It's true though, most of Pat's posts go so far over our heads that they actually go under. It's like we're all Fagurhólsmýri Airport and Pat just refuses to land. Why wont you use our runway, Pat? Our asphalt is most friendly. We'd even let the Guatemalan Air Force enter us.
