I said he could buy one. I said nothing about rolling.

Changing Medications (Level of Trust Required)
The Old Hack replied to ProfessorTomoe's topic in Off Topic Discussion
*sigh* I hope things will work out. I know this must feel disappointing but modern medicine is a very wide field. There might still be a good solution somewhere out there. -

According to Nioi, it treated a colour changing spell and a temporary rejuvenation spell as a curse. I think that durn thing is way too trigger happy on the false positives. -
I don't have one of these handy, but you can buy a vowel.

Big talk from the Pharaoh who built his kingdom on the backs of camels.

No, I prefer Clydesdales.

That would be if there were no PLOT reason for her presence. There is one. Magus wants a witness who can explain his motivations to the currently possessed and presumably unaware Elliot. -
I'm sorry. I don't watch Tom Cruise movies.

I want to know what the anniversary of the paper shredder is. There is no more satisfying way to deal with the excess forms documenting forms that document forms. In an office I used to work in, the paper shredder was voted the greatest office accessory ever made.

Certainly you can have the expectation, it just isn't proof.

And a bigger chance of that than any other individual outcome.

We only see Magus' head and shoulders, and not much of the shoulders. The superficial impression is male but that may be because he was male in all the other images on the page. In other words, insufficient data.

The chances of rolling a seven on two dice is one in six. It is not coincidental, it is by far the most common outcome when rolling two dice.

video games Video Game Discussion Part 3
The Old Hack replied to Zorua's topic in Off Topic Discussion
Oh yes. This could happen, too. I still remember with vast satisfaction how a level 59 rogue once went on a killing spree in our starting area. He got himself swarmed by lowbies. He had a crowd of at least a dozen or more of us constantly using stuns, roots and whatever else we could think of on him. Some of them kept getting through and eventually he went down under a pile of enraged level 6 to 11 characters. We had a field day on the forums with that one. Another rather less extreme example took place in the desert next to the enormous Un'Goro Crater. A level 60 night elf rogue decided to gank two undead priests who were adventuring next to the crater. These two were both level 48, I think. Normally he would likely have won handily but instead both priests used mind control on him and made him jump into the Crater. The furious rogue had to spend a long time recovering his body due to the vast distances and finally returned almost half an hour later, bent on revenge. When he attacked them, they mind controlled him once more and had him leap into the Crater again. At that point he made a fatal mistake. He went on the forums and complained about how he had been treated. Needless to say, the levels of sympathy for a ganker targeting victims far below him in level were not exactly high. The storms of scorn that greeted him were awesome to behold. He made one last outraged attempt and posted, "Well, what would YOU say if some crappy undead priest mind controlled you to jump into Un'Goro Crater?" The very next post replied, "I would say, AIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" For some reason he gave up after that. -
Given that it was Pepe le Pew, odiferous is perhaps a better word.

Hang in there, Prof. Sooner or later you will beat this thing. We're rooting for you. -
So seconded.

video games Video Game Discussion Part 3
The Old Hack replied to Zorua's topic in Off Topic Discussion
It is such an immensely satisfying feeling in any game when your defences are working so well that you do not even need to pay attention to any attackers. There was this time once where I was playing my World of Warcraft paladin way back before any expansions even. I had reached level 60 (max at the time) and was headed for a dangerous area known as the Plaguelands. I was supposed to meet up with friends so I waited in what was technically a hostile area but populated only by the lowest level of the enemy faction. Then, suddenly I hear an odd clanking sound repeat itself over and over and notice that an enemy player is attacking me. A level 6 rogue. Well, the massive mismatch means that she can't really hurt me, so I felt it would be mean to hit back. I try to shoo her off but she keeps attacking me. And by then the sound of her blunting her blades against my plate armour is starting to irritate me and I think she has actually managed to make a pixel of my health bar disappear, so I decide that enough is enough and turn on my retribution aura. This is a damage shield that returns a minor amount of damage to anyone who hits you. Minor damage for a level 60, that is. For a level 6, not so much. Three hits later the rogue had killed herself hitting me. She stopped bothering me after that. -
Please pardon my French, I was in a silly mood and wanted to sound extravagant Or possibly like Pepe le Pew!

At least you tried it once. Even a lifetime quest of pursuing that ideal will feel fruitful for you from now on, because now you know that the ideal exists. <3

One move into the game and already Rhoda is busted.

Amen to that. So much depends on the individual school, the individual community and even the individual teacher. (I am not making a political comment here, not intentionally anyway -- merely reminiscing about how I had horrible experiences in some schools and with some teachers, and good experiences with others.)

In other words, the pyramids were erected by magic. Poor van Däniken -- he was convinced that alien astronauts had built the pyramids, but in reality a wizard did it! What? You can't tell me that the Pharaohs weren't wizards even by your own definition!
