Since this is a new board, and we seem to be gaining users fast, would anyone be interested in setting up a Domebo online guild? There are enough games out there - Everquest, Guild Wars, Shadowbane etc that would fit. Most players are probably...

I finally built a computer capable of playing more recent games. I've wanted to play half life 2 since it came out, and I now I can. Of course with HL2, comes steam. And with steam comes online games that I haven't played since the first Half Life...

Story here: http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/story/600430.html Doesn't seem like a real obvious match to me. The high maintenance spotlight-craving Dallas diva is going to a city that isn't exactly a media hub (I went to college there) with a...

When steam first came on the scene oh so many years ago, I was derisive. It was buggy, memory chugging, and bandwidth intensive. It was overly intrusive to my privacy. And the concept was icky to me because I rejected all sorts of online activation...

Arsenal's just gone through against Roma after a penalty shoot-out that went to sudden death. That puts Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal in the last eight, pretty good showing from the English teams. Who's the favourites to win, now? Man...

Ok - let''s try this. This Feud is about the game shows Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune, created by Merv Griffin. DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS READ THE RULES! Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer,...

Well, it's must win time for England in the 5th Test. Looks like we won't be playing Sidebottom or Harmison either and they will give Khan a run instead. Sidebottom was very poor in the last test and Harmison just looks liek he doesn't want to be...

I'm growing tired of playing CoD:4. CoD:5 isn't all that good, from what I've heard, especially if you're played CoD:4 before. Are there any decent shooters on the horizon?

Whenever there's a discussion about cursed sports teams, my favorite one to bring up is "The Curse of the Colonel." In 1985, the Hanshin Tigers of Osaka won the Japan Series. The night of their victory, crowds of drunken fans were celebrating in...

Anyone a hockey fan here? I'm reading Puck Daddy's blog now; I almost forgot today was the day! The Wings aren't in the market so I hadn't been paying attention. Calgary's picked up Olli Jokinen and Jordan Leopold. Those seem to be the biggest...

I just started playing Diablo again, but I don't understand the rules. I have a longbow with damage 3-6 +32% damage. My base damage (with no weapon active) is 3-3. With the bow equipped, it displays the damage as 6-9. Where does the +32% come...

The next issue of City of Heroes will include a feature called Mission Architect, which will allow players to design their own original missions and story arcs to share with other players. More info found here: ...

I've tried this before on another message board, let's see if it works here. Try and guess the song from the clue... They're all popular music, from a range of genres. Some I think are easy, others are rather tough. 1. The bucket, we hear, is...

For the entertainment I propose, there is but one imperative. The cognitive content of our typing doesn't matter. The topic of conversation may be variable. But within the structure of our discourse, we should avoid one element. If you understand my...

I'll start the pub crawl rolling. The Football Hooligan's Arms.

This is not an official feud, since rebo isn't putting it up or scoring it. I just wanna feud. The game will end when we have 20 entries or by when I get to work and take a look tomorrow. I start work at 8:30 am and I'll score it soon after. The...

If you can name the song, give yourself a point. If you can name the artist, give yourself another point. If you can voulez-vous coucher avec moi give yourself 10,000 points. If you win, you get one whole internets! Why R&B? Because I need an...

The Pats seem preety confident Brady is coming back and will be his old self. Nothing wrong with his arm, true, and good doctorin' should get his knee back to "100%", but I don't think he'll ever be the same. The psychological part of this injury is...

http://www.sporcle.com/games/usuk_words.php I got 36 of 45 before time ran out. I was very annoyed that I missed a couple of very easy answers. I KNOW what a spanner is. I know what treacle is. I suck!

You can with Pandemic 2. Apparently, this game has been around for a while. I only found out about it last night and I've killed all of mankind twice. Once with Wigglyworm and another time with Teeny Testes. I have to admit, the only times I've...

Ok, who has been giving England lessons in how to bat. I mean 553/5 at lunch on the second day. Is the pitch playing that true??

I love playing the feuds, enough to commit to running one here if there's any interest. Unless of course another SDMBohemian else has had a burning desire to do so longer than I've been posting here/there. Whaddya think?

Is anybody watching the rugby? Wales just had their dreams of a Grand Slam crushed by the French. Does anybody have any predictions on eventual winner? That defeat just made a lot of teams, including England, viable contenders.
