Well, it looks like 8 of the teams that make up Formula 1 have had enough of Max Mosely and the demands being placed on them from the budget cap. They are going to form their own Championship in 2010 before the budget cap kicks in. When that...

Has anybody played the PC Game Stalker? It's set in and around Chernobyl in 2012. If so, I would love to know how to get the papers out of the underground lab. I keep getting locked into the room beneath the control room and get "someone is...

My kid and I play this is the car. It's easy, and gross! Simple start with a "base", and add three ingredients. Your goal is to create the grossest item. Important notes: The base should always be simple, and not itself gross.

I promised myself I wouldn't post this strangely addictive bubble shooting game until I bested 200. 231, suckas! The secret is to direct all of your balls so they provide upward momentum to at least two balls on every. Single. Shot. Hate me...

Ronaldo's goal against Porto last night was pretty impressive, as was Adebayor's overhead kick in the last round. Any more good ones?

It's summer! Favorite Slurpee (tm) flavors, real or imagined! Cherry Lime

Duke Nukem Developer 3D Realms shuts down The article links to a post by Joe Siegler. Since the 3D Realms forums are overloaded, I'll quote it here: It's not a marketing thing. It's true. I have nothing further to say at this time. Crap.

Oh sweet. It looks as though one of the most prestigious teams ever to grace Formula one will be back in 2010. More here, but it looks like with the withdrawal of BMW Sauber, they were chosen to fill the spot. I look forward to seeing the...

Currently I'm aware of only one country with several "national" football associations: the UK. Is this an exception for specific reasons or could any country send more than one team to international tournaments?

I, for one, am I shocked. Well, not that shocked. You know, now that I think about it, I'm kind of wondering what took so long.Veteran games developer 3D Realms has closed down because of a lack of funds. Founded in 1987, the firm popularised...

Rules: 1. No major holidays (New Years, Easter, Hanukkah) Use your discretion. 2. Anything else goes - birthdays, anniversaries, inventions 3. We're going in order, but you can post for already mentioned dates. March 14 - Catwoman's Birthday...

Down to the last couple weeks, so we should probably move on to the AL. The NL threads, particularly the NL East, can still use more entries. Last time on the "Adventures of Ichiro and Enemies" or "Wait, they only have to beat three teams and...

I'd like to run a game, but frankly it seems like way too much work*, so I'm looking to pawn off most (most=all) of the grunt work on someone. PM me if interested. *I'm a lazy sack of shit. Sue me.

Well, it looks like Ferrari went out and found someone to take over from Massa while he recovers. It looks like Michael Schumacher is going to be back in Formula One after all. Story here He may be 40, but he still has more skill than most on...

Chuck Daly, former championship coach of the Detroit Pistons, has been diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer. And Colleen Howe, wife of Mr. Hockey, died today of Pick's disease.

Did anyone else have fun with/pull their hair out over Ice Breaker ? If you've any hair left, you can give it up to Ice Breaker: The Red Clan. ::pulls on wig:: You'll know where I'll be. :D

My mother-in-law just bought a Nintendo DS, primarily to play one game: Slingo Quest. She’s been playing it night and day for hours on end. I need simple, really, really simple games to add to her collection. She’s an unrepentant technophobe who...

I think it would be fun to have a Mellodome Rock Band (or Guitar Hero) contest. I personally own Rock Band 1, Rock Band 2, Beatles Rock Band, Guitar Hero 2, Guitar Hero 3, Guitar Hero Aerosmith, Guitar Hero World Tour, and Guitar Hero 5. If people...

Although I said I'd be sticking around after stepping down as mod, I haven't really been here all that much, and as a result, I've let the Feud sit idle for the past few weeks. I apologize for that, and to keep things moving smoothly I think it...

I was actually crying. I usually rooted against him, but I admired his work ethic and the NFL will miss him dearly. So sad for one so young to die. This is a bad week for celebrities.

I saw this on another board recently: The Broken Picture Telephone Game. One person writes a short description, then the next person has to draw a picture of the description, then a third person writes a description for the second person's drawing,...

Don't have time to do a write up now, but wanted to get picks on the record before the season officially began. Rays 95-67 Red Sox (WC)91-71 Yankees 90-72 Blue Jays 81-81 Orioles 78-84

So there this "massive social online game" called erepublik, which left me slightly puzzled; there's nothing much you can do in the game at the beginning except to log in, click a button to work, buy some food, and wait for another day. Does anyone...

Hey. Anyone play anything good online? A couple of years ago I got hooked on Wordhunt (essentially Boggle) at this site: http://tothegames.com/ What kills me is how good some people are at it. What also kills me is how addicted to it I...

For our anniversary, I bought my husband tickets for three games in late April. For those who don't know, he died in January. I don't want to use the tickets and would rather not sell them, but I'd love if someone can get some use out of them. ...

OSKEE WOW WOW ILLINOIS!
