  1. May I ask why defensive players were suddenly added to the mix out of no where? Not a fan
  2. Is anyone taking the reigns on the second league? I have never run one before, and have a little one on the way during the season, so I wouldn't be able to play full time babysitter on this. Otherwise I'm willing to get #2 going and drop my spot in the current one. I also really wish the draft was next week instead of Wednesday.
  3. What these guys said - should be a pretty easy bolt-on job. Do make sure you get new/correct gaskets. Happy wrenching!
  4. Not when one of your 3 decent players gets hurt, and you're now down to third string backs on the waiver wire. I was in a 10 team PPR league last year, and the injuries to Percy Harvin and Darren Sproles sunk my season (plus Stafford sucking big ones, grumble grumble...) Maybe we can get enough people for two 10's? if not, two leagues of 8 are the way to go. As I said before, I'll volunteer to switch to the newly opening league. Not sure I can be commish though. As it's set right now, the draft is a week from tomorrow, so we probably need to get this sorted asap.
  5. You can count me out of a 16 team league, that sounds terrible. 12 would be the max I would consider, otherwise there just isn't enough talent to make Sundays feel even remotely enjoyable.
  6. I know more than 2 additional people wanted in... Why not two leagues of 8? I'll volunteer for the second league if necessary.
  7. Whoa whoa whoa, hold your horses guys. I was on vacation last week, and now it seems we're capping it off before I can get signed up?? I still want in! NVM, apparently I'm #10. Also, Flex should be RB, WR or TE (if you're crazy enough), no QBs.
  8. For the most part, I trust Preacher when it comes to all things cheap.
  9. Got it in the sale as well. Really enjoying it so far! Damn does that woman take a beating though...
  10. Damn you.... I ALREADY OWN AND HAVE BEATEN THIS ON 360, WHY AM I BUYING IT AGAIN??? Here's hoping the expansions are cool.
  11. I have a problem... Just bought Fallout: NV Ultimate edition for $5 on Steam sale. I already own and have beaten the game (not expansions) on Xbox 360. Someone stop me, please.

      Expansions = good. PC mods = perfectly excellent. AWOP is really really brutal, esp. with Gun Runners.

      So, what is the problem again? :P

  12. Wait a second, if this raid goes down on the new server and the ender dragon is slain, is he gone forever and no one else gets a chance to see it? Forgive my ignorance, I never made it to the End before. I don't want to miss out on the opportunity if that is the case.

    Just a rule

    That's pretty damn shady, in my opinion.
  14. The hair is fun, but slurpies are pretty overrated, imo. Wait, what was the question?

    Windows 9

    Personally, I think Windows 8 is great once you understand how things are organized. I have NEVER worked on a faster machine than my home rig once I got Win8 running on it. Any time I hear someone say that it's awful, I think they really want it to be like the above picture. Makes me imagine MS giving a giant middle finger to the haters, saying "You want to live in the past? HERE YOU GO. ENJOY."
  16. I have a feeling I know what the answers will be, but I'll ask anyway. Should I grab FFVII off Steam? Never played any FF game before, but loved Chrono Trigger.

  17. Personally, I don't count the Clicker grab a cheap death at all. These are supposed to be VERY dangerous enemies, and it would have killed the immersion for me if I could get out of a mess I started by punching one in the fungus. Silence and stealth are key to dealing with those things, and when you screw those things up and don't get your gun trained on one in time, it should be game over. I understand why they have the companions able to hold clickers off - it would royally suck if you had to babysit them the whole time for fear of game over because you were busy dealing with your own stuff (classic "escort mission" PITA for some FPS). That is making it a more enjoyable game, imo. As for the bow aiming, I wouldn't call it clunky since you can see the whole friggin arc where the arrow will fly. It's not EASY to hit a moving target with it, but it isn't easy in real life either. By the end of the game though I became much more proficient with it. Using it was about picking your spots and waiting for the target to move into your aim, not trying to follow the moving target. The AI isn't perfect in this game, and I did encounter a few instances of weird enemy behavior/glitches, but I refuse to let that bring down my opinion of one of the best games I have played.
  18. Dude, you're barely halfway through. So much awesome to come.
  19. Just finished it last night. What a great game. Joel and Ellie might be two of my favorite game characters ever.
  20. I have the one you linked, but have never tried to stream to it. The one I have used for that is this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/3D+Wi-Fi+Built-In+Blu-ray+Player/4793709.p?id=1218540212212&skuId=4793709&st=blu ray player&cp=1&lp=3
  21. Hooking it up directly to the player? Even with the USB port, it would probably be picky regarding the hard drive setup, file types, etc if it's recognized. That player only has a wired ethernet connection besides the A/V connection. If you had the hard drive set up in a NAS situation, then the "smart" features of the player *might* be able to connect to it to stream content. It does mention DLNA capability, which means it theoretically could connect to a smart phone or other computer on the network. I do know that model player has a more limited "smart" feature set compared to the next step up that includes wifi. That player gives you options, but I'm not sure how well or if they would work in your situation. I've used the next model up from this before and it can see my desktop on the network and stream content. Not sure about this one.
  22. 10 hours in and I'm 61% through , according the save game thingy. Playing on Hard, and it's been challenging, but not frustratingly so.* God this game is so good. *My gaming time prior to putting in this game was on my second playthrough of Dark Souls, so my perception of difficulty may be slightly skewed.
