    [MMO] The WarCraft Movie

    Not sure whether this properly goes in the Media forum or the Games forum, but the people I wanted to talk about it with are more reliably over here so.... I've been reading reviews for the past two weeks with grim determination, knowing that no matter how awful they were, I still *had* to see...

    Looking for an oddly specific game (Or, the Minecraft Thread)

    I've done some googling, but not found a game that's quite what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a multiplayer game (I want to play with exactly one other person, although massively multiplayer might be fine as long as we can find each other and ignore everyone else). My long distance...

    [Music] Brighter Than Today - A Humanist Anthem

    I've been working on secular humanist music that doesn't suck for the past few years. Got a recording up of the song I'm currently working on. Curious what you think?

    [Webcomic] Trenches

    Trenches has gotten some discussion in the PVP thread, about how stale it's been and how unlikeable the "protagonist" is. But I've actually been really liking this new arc (notably, the original "main character" has barely shown up so far. Cora and Quentin seem to be taking the lead with Isaac...

    [Fanfiction] Friendship is Optimal

    Did you ever feel like the world didn't have enough fanfiction that asks the question "What would happen if you created a superintelligence AI to run a My Little Pony MMO, and then gave it the instruction 'Satisfy human values as effectively as possible using friendship and ponies?", knowing...

    Cloudberry Kingdom (Insane Platformer)

    A friend of mine has spent the past few years working on a platformer that randomly generates levels, based on various settings you choose, and scales difficulty based on how well you've been doing at the game. He's pitching it to Microsoft next week...

    Darwin Day: Good Evolution Games?

    Darwin's birthay is on February 12th, which is a Sunday. I'd kinda like to do something fun to celebrate. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good games that feature natural selection? Video games would work if necessary (to run through a lot of iterations quickly), but I'd prefer something...

    Disturbingly well edited Frollo/Cinderella slash video

    This is a pretty creepy video splicing together footage from Cinderella and Hunchback of Notre Dame. (Since "creepy" is a word with a lot of meanings and there are definitely things on the internet I wish I could unsee, I will clarify that I mean "approximately as creepy as the original...

    So I made some Harry Potter Fanfiction Fanart Fanart.

    I'm not sure if the internet is meant to handle that much recursion, or whether this is something I should be proud of, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Based on another work of fan-fanart which I though had a great concept, which I wanted to see a more epic version of. Inspired by...

    I vote for "Fractured Psyche"

    http://www.cad-comic.com/cad/20110808 Seriously. It would be quite the twist!

    Legend of Korra

    Huzzah. Looks about as awesome as we figured it would. The storyline has something to do with people who don't like benders, who use chi-blocking. Best new info is that there'll be two seasons, not one. (Of 12 and 14 episodes, respectively)

    Starslip Discussion Thread

    Don't think we've had this for a while. And today's strip was excellent. http://starslip.com/2011/04/08/the-old-man-and-c/ (Spoiler talk) I accidentally glanced ahead, and said "oh cool! It's elderbeam!" Then went back to reading. Then read what he actually SAID, and my heart skipped beat...

    Pretty Little Liars is a good show and I'm not embarrassed to admit it.

    For a long time this was on my "guilty pleasure" list. At first glance the show looked like a girly soap opera marketed to the Twilight crowd, and I kept it classified under that stereotype for a while. But the fact is it's genuinely good show. Good acting, interesting plot, with a great...

    Looking for feedback on my game, Metrognome

    I've been working on this for the past few months. Next week I'm going to the Indie Game Festival, and hopefully I'll meet some cool people there and show it off to them. I'm looking for feedback, both for general improvements as well as specific things you think I should focus on in the next...

    Choices about a broken laptop

    My laptop slipped off a table yesterday and landed on the power supply connector. The computer still works, if you stick a fresh battery in, but it cannot be charged up on its own. Rendering it mostly useless. The frame of the computer was dented in such a way that you can't really install a new...

    Dexter (Also Walking Dead, sort of) - SPOILERS

    Has anyone been watching Dexter Season 5 AND Walking Dead? Because I have things to say about both their finales. (If you like one of them, you should probably watch the other one... they have pretty much the same target demographic I think). Spoilers for both, throughout the rest of this...

    Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality Book 1 is done, and you should read it

    A while ago I posted about Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. It's a fanfiction. It's also one of the best things I've ever read. The premise is "What would the Potterverse look like if Harry (and Voldemort) were really smart." This means A) that people tend NOT to do things like...

    Tangled AKA Rapunzel

    So I went and saw Tangled last night. It was pretty good! I made the mistake of watching a bunch of previews and reviews first. I would have enjoyed it more, I think, if I had just seen the . (It's not exactly a twisty movie, you'll figure it all out within the first ten minutes, but the way...

    Lost My Wallet Rant

    Okay, to be honest this is more of a wannabe facebook post than a forum rant, but my dad's on facebook and he'd give me no end of grief and criticism for this. He's also on the OTHER forum I frequent. So... hey guys! 'Sup! I lost my wallet. It was pretty explicitly my fault. There is no...
