Weekend Discussion
by Jeff "geedeck" Gondek, Jan 20, 2008 7:20am PSTGood morning Shackers, hope this weekend finds you well. It might even be a bit of an extended one for some, with Martin Luther King Jr Day being recognized in the US. Doing anything interesting this weekend? I saw the Ohio Roller Girls get stomped by their compatriots from Detroit last night, and discovered that seeing a pack of girls elbow their way around a skate track is actually pretty alright. And did you catch this TF2 video from NastyJack? You should. Also, mindfk offers guiding words to those Shackers overwhelmed by the early game in EVE.
If you haven't checked out the ShackBlog lately, here's what you've been missing:
Daily Filter: Planetside 2, Deadlight
Weekend PC digital deals: strategy-o-rama
38 Studios, Harry Potter Kinect - Shacknews Daily: May 25, 2012
Minecraft for Xbox 360 dev working on 'Adventure' update
Demon's Souls servers extended again
Here is a compiled list of all the teams. I made this from your posts, so if there are errors, its the captain's fault, not mine! Feel free to point out any corrections/deletions/additions. But I figured this will be the easiest way to view everyone's teams. Note for teams that I didnt know the name for I just put down the captains name.
They all look pretty even, after a quick glance im pretty scared of skankcores team though!

Where: moron.empx.net (ShackEst TF2 server)
When: Between 12h00 and 13h00 EST
Why:
Me and my fellow ubisoftians are playing TF2 in a tournament of game dev studios. We need the practice before the tournament starts and I figure if we can beat the shack we might have a slim chance of beating Valve. I won't be picking teams so join early if you want a spot.

Did you get to try the RB drums with the gum rubber on them?? I'm really hoping they are the way to go to quiet them down even more. With the felt mod, they still are pretty loud. :(

OK, so this girl, overeducated and underemployed, hears inanimated objects talk to her and help her make good in other people's lives!
OK, so this girl, she dies and becomes a grim reaper, takin' souls. One of her partners is a drunk British guy, one of them is Jasmine Guy, and one of them is Inigo Montoya. He calls her peanut!
OK, so this guy, he can bring people back from the dead. BUT! BUT! Only for one minute! And he makes pies! And the chicks around him are really fucking short, and intensely hot, OH SHIT, one of them can be that chick from Wicked!
I mean, all three shows are great, but dude. Dude.

I think I should go back to bussing. This is my first experience as a car owner and I'm told it's only going to get worse! HEHE. Can't complain though since we got the car for free from the GF's folks...

At about 4:21 in the video, there's the sticker screen for players to link to active game characters. And who happens to be active game characters? Ness, Lucario (pokemon) and DA MAN.
Also, Ouendan and ChibiRobo assist trophies? There better be some Phoenix Wright in this game or I'll be upset.

Got up with one of those pee bones you get when you wake up. Went to relieve it and stood there waiting for the stream. Finally came and SHOT FUCKING EVERYWHERE. Total WTF is going on moment scrambling to stifle the stream (which fucking burns to you females) and I look down and realize that an inspector sticker had been covering good ole one eye's eye.
Again, WTF and TLDR, check your boxers before you wear them, if they're new.

Of note however, he 'hit' the fence yesterday at 60mph... and just rode the fence almost sideways for about half a second before rejoining the course, he still came in first.

I picked up nhl 08 and man it's a nice looking game and the controls are going to take getting used to but seem great.
However I have one question. Did this game make anyone else their bitch? I got this baby on the lowest difficulty and it is just mocking me :(. I'll get about 40 shots on target to their 13 and I'm losing 4-1 or so. This game is making me sad but it's also so much fun. I think it hates me.

I was freaking out this weekend, when my computer started blue-screening and failing to read my main drive.
I opened up my case once, played with the cables, made sure everything was seated well, and it all worked again for about a day.
Then the same thing happened again, blue screen, can't boot from OS drive.
I think the problem was a intermittent sata cable, because I replaced the cable, and everything is working fine again. I think it got a little too twisted/bent or something. Very odd.
Anyone else ever have a sata cable just poop out on them?
