17:02, Chad> I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Starcraft MMO... Be interesting to see how they do that.
20:19, Cryoburner doesn't really care. : P
20:20, Cryoburner> I'd say it probably would not be a Starcraft MMO though. It seems unlikely they would release two games in the same franchise around the same time.
20:26, Raptorjedi> A Starcraft MMO (which is probably in at least the planning stages) will probably be mentioned a few years after Starcraft 2 has been out.
22:12, Chad> Oh, but it is a MMO! I know! I have powers!
22:41, Cryoburner> Hey Chad, have you tried that new course in Albatross18 yet?
23:47, Chad> Haven't played that in a long time.
00:19, Chad> Sweet... Googles Meadia Server works pretty dang well.
00:20, Chad meant: Media
03:24, Chad> Any WoW players getting the "Authenticator"? :P
03:25, Deanfrz> Damn the authenticators, full speed ahead!
03:26, Chad> Yes Sir!
03:34, Tom> Thank you, Admiral Farragut.
04:26, Deanfrz> Dont thank me, thank HCR 362!
04:41, Chad> I have no idea what that Bill does...
04:44, Starchaser> mmmm. double strength coffee
04:48, Tom> Chad: basically it's scaremongering regarding Iran, finally calling for a naval blockade
04:50, Starchaser> oh how fun.
04:51, Chad> Nuke'em all! :P
04:53, Chad> You know what would be better to fund then wars? Energy, Making the Earth cleaner, Helping mankind. But alas, those are just dreams.
04:57, Chad> WoW should donate 80% of the monthly subscription fee's to a worthy cause, they don't need more freakin' money. :P
04:59, Starchaser> yes but our race is greedy. why would they do it if they don't have to. (not that I support money hoarding of multi million dollar companies)
05:06, Starchaser> What was Galloc
05:09, Chad> The spacebar in Firefox 3 scrolls the page. Neato.
05:10, Starchaser> I find that feature annoying when plaing Flash based games.
05:11, Chad> Haven't had that problem yet.
05:11, Chad> Of course I rarely play flash games.
05:13, Cryoburner> The spacebar does the same thing in Opera and IE. :P
05:15, Cryoburner> In case someone has a 10 year old mouse without a scroll wheel, I guess.
05:17, Cryoburner whispers: Or arrow keys.
05:18, Chad> Never know.
05:18, Starchaser> Who has A mouse with arrow keys?
05:18, Starchaser> :P
05:19, Chad> Mine does.
05:19, Starchaser> Well that was unexpected.
05:20, Chad> http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/images/logitech_mx518.jpg
05:20, Chad> :P
05:23, Starchaser> Cool. but whats with all the lumps at the back?
05:23, Chad> No lumps, just painted to look like its been shot, or something.
05:27, Chad> Yay for marketing! http://gizmodo.com/5020416/sharper-image-human-touch-massage-chairs-look-f amiliar
05:32, Cryoburner> Actually my MX500 has arrow keys (buttons) too. :P
05:34, Cryoburner> That is a chair.
05:46, Tom> Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Not that time, though!
05:47, Tom> also, I have an MX518 too!
14:05, Buuks> And it is gonna be Diablo III.
14:06, Buuks> http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/
14:09, Starchaser> Does anyone know where the Pretend to be a Time Traveler for a day thread is?
14:11, Starchaser> Never mind I found it.
16:29, Languidiir> the first the last the the.
16:29, Languidiir> I can't for the life of me find anything to do.
16:34, Duskesko> get a job
16:35, Duskesko> i did, best thing ever
16:36, Duskesko> its like a gym membership with cool friends except they pay me
17:00, Chad> Diablo 3.... How original...
17:12, Duskesko> DIABLO III
17:12, Duskesko> or
17:12, Duskesko> DIABLO ]|[
17:31, Duskesko> I think people who play paranoia just like to die a lot.
17:33, Duskesko> and by "a lot" i mean ALL THE FUCKING TIME
17:51, Kalliope> Depends on the tone of the individual game.
17:52, Kalliope> Unless you're playing a 'straight' style game, dying in interesting and amusing ways is part of the package.
17:54, Duskesko> A traffic accident is hardly interesting. Now the autohack hitting a door and laser pistols exploding... that was fun.
18:17, Xenomorph smiles due to information beyond your clearance
18:19, Duskesko smiles because he is stupid.
18:42, Kalliope> I'm inclined to agree with you.
18:42, Kalliope> Not on the stupidity -- the traffic accident.
