Domebo Feud, Round 6: Company Names Sorry for the late start, I got sidetracked last night and forgot! THE RULES 1. DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS 2. The object is to come up with the most popular answer. Points...
It's really quite simple - you decide on a name, pick the gender and outfit and send your Brute out to battle, gladiator style. Fights give XP, which in turn give new weapons, skills or even pets. They are also automatic, so you don't get to play...
I'm either going to put the hoodoo on my team here, or seem like a prophet in 3 months, but the football "Incredible Dream" is still on. With City still competing in the UEFA Cup, and Man United on the trail of a possible 5-timer, there is a...
Paul Newman It was suggested that my no-other-commentary Quik-E rule was painfully restrictive, so I will lose it. But for quick references purposes, I ask that posters place their choice in the upper left of their post, and skip a few lines...
I've been certified for many years, but haven't been in the water in over 10 years. I've decided I'm going to dive this summer, and I wanted to get some advice about equipment. I've got a friend across the street who works for Northeastern...

...........So should Pete Rose. Fucking with the game is fucking with the game and that is my contention. It looks more and more like everyone in this era, with the hopeful exclusion of KGJ has boosted their stats with dope and it's just as bad...
It's just a few games to go until the end of the English football season now. My team (Newcastle United) is in dire straits. We're in the Premier League but in serious danger of being relegated, despite being one of the biggest clubs in terms of...
ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! "...for a performance-enhancing substance" Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Have a nice summer, ballbag!
It's here (gibber). I started last night and still only managed to level 17. Very different game play to chapter one. Much more changing round of the skills to win each battle. No glowing frames, but once you get higher, you can go back to...
Otherwise, I'll hit you on the head with a guitar...KABONG!!!
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.
It's a simple javascript word game. Letters show up, and you try to form words. If the rack fills up and you don't create a word, the letters will drop out and you lose points. Various bonus multipliers increase the score. Best of all, each game...

For free! I haven't got satellite tv myself and don't know anyone willing to get the fight on pay-per-view because it is on so late, so is there any way I'd be able to watch the fight online? If worst comes to worse, I'll listen to it on the...
I don't care about the races but that was pretty hot. Calvin Borel rides a horse that was purchased for $9,500 from dead last past horses worth $3,500,000 to the win. He won by over 20 lengths.
Time for some dingbats (a.k.a. Rebus puzzles). If you aren't familiar with them, they're a "visual pun" of a well known phrase. For instance, the dingbat: BLU E Is a pun of "blue movie". The phrase should be obvious, when somebody...
Yep, you read right. Strategery in Monopoly (the board game). Here's the scoop: My classes finish after about two hours, leaving us with a good few hours of "required" study hall. We don't really need a few hours, so we've found other things...

Another game imported from the Dope. What do these three things have in common? Great Expectations dice apples The Lovely Bones "Sunset Boulevard" "Desperate Housewives"
This is it, today starts the season. I like my Yankees, the starters look great and the bullpen looks great. The hitters will be good until A-Rod returns and then maybe great. The problem is Boston and Tampa both look good. I think these might...
Notice I said good, not great.
I have no idea if this post should go here in The Dark Room, in Games and Sports or the Guggenheim. Mods, do as you will. I throw my hands in the air and wave em like I just don't care. You don't have have to post anything to guess, or guess any...

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...
Ah, I have left this way too late. I am looking for 4 players with a couple of hours to spare. This will be like Battleship, with players posting or PMing once every 5 minutes or so. The game should be quick, and so would probably take an hour,...
The contest begins... NOW! You have one week to pimp the chosen avatar. You can use any method available to you to create something new. ONE entry per poster and once your entry is received there will be no additional editing. A title...
The 2009 Presidential Cycling Tour of Turkey just ended a few hours ago on an appalling note. The whole tour had been closely fought, with Daryl Impey of team Barloworld holding on to a 1-second lead going into the eighth and final stage. In the...

I know the answer so I'm posting this in G&S for you to find out: X² = X * X X² = X + X + ... + X (X times) d/dX X² = d/dX (X + X + ... + X) 2 * X = 1 + 1 + ... + 1 (X times) 2 * X = X 2 = 1 Where's the error?
Trebuchet: Build your own trebuchet and see if you can beat the challenges. There's a distance, accuracy, and power challenge. The distance one I've never managed to do very well on, but the power and accuracy ones I've done halfway decent on. ...

A couple of my friends left for a hike to the North Pole a couple of days ago. They will start at a Russian ice station. One is a quad, who will be pulled on a sled by the other. Go guys! http://www.teamindependence.ca/

Hi, all. Not wishing to tread on glee's toes, but I have been having some thoughts about a roleplaying campaign and there seems to be enough interest that one game alone won't be enough... and besides, having spent the time thinking it over, it...
Mine are: Doom II: Never finished it. The farthest I got was the part were the Cyberdemon is wandering the map outside some tower-like structures. Civilization 3 (I've never played any other one of the civ games): I just got bored with the...
Ronaldo's goal against Porto last night was pretty impressive, as was Adebayor's overhead kick in the last round. Any more good ones?
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
As many of you know, I've been out with a knee injury since last April. The first game of our season is this Saturday. The first time I get to run with the ball, the first time I get to tackle, the first time I get to scrum down in ten months. ...

Watching the America's Game boxset brought this to mind. I'll give the Super Bowl, who was named MVP, comment on whether or not they actually deserved the award and if not who should have gotten or who should have been considered for co-MVP status....
I tend to waste quite a bit of time in front of the computer, not really doing anything, and have found three excellent puzzles that I like to think help keep my brain at least slightly active. Everyone knows Sudoku - there's tons of online...
