Quick everyone, PM Mahz with your wishlist for Guild updates and new features. The more the better. In fact, send him a PM about it every day. Make that every hour. Chop chop!

To all the homies in Florida -- stay safe out there. Now is not the time to wrangle an alligator and surf it down the flooded streets. I know, it's hard to resist the urge.

Bio

On the old version of the Guild I was the record holder for 'Most Infraction Points Without Being Permabanned'.

My primary roleplaying genres are fantasy and science fiction. Big fan of The Elder Scrolls, The Lord of the Rings, Warhammer 40,000, Mass Effect, Fallout and others.

Because Dervish, you're supposed to care about these people, and idolize them for no reason what-so-ever!


Let me stop you right there -- these people are idolized for being highly skilled actors who we adore for bringing characters to life on the silver screen. That is not "no reason what-so-ever".

Well, either Lithuanians are seriously dumb, or they just need to get their facts straight, because I was only stating what I read. >w<


Classic mistake. Do not believe the media.

Can I ask how you define maths and actual physics? Or rather, where the line is drawn? The way I see it, 2+2=4 is as fundamental and real as any complex concept a mathematician could come up with. The layman's explanation might be simplified, but it's no less true (assuming good reporting, that is.) I only learned the mathematics of why applying force to open a door at the hinge has less effect than applying the force at the outer edge, but even without knowing the maths, just knowing where to most effectively apply force inherently contains core knowledge and comprehension of important physics concepts (that was a clusterfuck of a sentence, jesus.)


Someone can explain to me why a neutron star functions the way it does, but I cannot detect one using calculations and advanced technology. That's the difference to me.
Halo said What about physics and "pop-science", as it's called, how'd you feel about that? That doesn't really require you to be a natural mathematician, just to take an interest. An example would be the way the Higgs Boson's discovery was reported in the news - it wasn't reams of technical data or any such thing.


That's not something I define as mathematics or actual physics. It's a layman's explanation of the facts. That, of course, I adore and indulge in plenty.
It combines the very simplistic combat system of the Elder Scrolls (attack, blocking, heavy attack, eyyyy) with skills assigned to hotkeys. The result is a system that doesn't have the visceral quality of the normal Elder Scrolls combat, nor the flashy versatility of a proper MMO's buttonmashing. It just... sucks.
Played it last time. Big disappointment.
I'm sure it's a fascinating subject (the only constant, unwavering language in the universe) but I am very, very bad at it... which means I don't like it.


This is on my Samsung Galaxy Note II using the Chrome app. Works just fine (layout is a little wonky though -- and I'm not talking about the cropping of the screen, I just zoomed in for clarity).
I'm surprised he actually decided to use it.

Take that however you will.
