Has anyone played the board game version of Civilization? My self and two others took it on this weekend. It took 7 hours. That's way too long. It was fun though... until I began falling asleep at the table.

With all this talk of computers, I suppose I'll mention I'm towards the end of my research phase and will be buying a new laptop shortly.

Lastly, Pittsburgh is in a rat fink mood. That's why I hate when our team loses. Everyone acts like a 5 year old because of it. This will last all week.

2222. Epic number.

Cheers for the response.

Is Civilisation like the board game risk? (Or landgrab to chat frequenters)

And im now officially proud of myself: i made a redstone circuit in minecraft that played tubular bells.

2223 (semi-epic number)

I've heard a lot of people talking about Minecraft - in a very positive way, actually. How good is the game really, on a scale from 1 - 10 (1 is worst, 10 is best)? I'm considering to try it out...

2224 (not really epic at all)

Minecraft....It sounds like an interesting game but I wouldn't have the patience for it....

Civilization is a turn based game, like Risk/Landgrab, but you are not constantly at war and you have more things to do than control armies. (also if you go to war then you have side effects of it and it's possible to take down the largest empire in the game when your microscopic)

The one for the PS3 was good, but rather easy to beat.

2227.

The PS3 one was so...simple, compared to Civ III Complete. And I think I prefer Civ III to Civ V, so yea...that's all I have to say about it.

Personally i find minecraft awesome. So awesome i run a server for multiplayer. It never ceases to amaze me with possibilities.

@Blue You wont believe this. But someone recreated that using note blocks in minecraft. Ill have to edit this with a vid when i find it. ( Not on youtube i dont think, i found it researching)

Minecraft seems like a fun game to some but not me. I played Civ III complete and Civ IV.

Duly noted.

But hey, you try telling the difference at 6:50 monday morning without your glasses on and see how well you do.

I think I'll pass

@ Blue "Them good old boys were drinking whisky and rye singing this'll be the day that I die"

[Larks2242 251]

2233.

That sounds oddly familar.

Hey, we found an old non-rap song that Larks sort of recognizes! Awesome!

[Chptrk 86]

2235.

Mission success! Slightly related, I used parts of that song for an essay. I think it worked well.

[astronelson 339]

My, my, this here Anakin guy... wait, that's not part of the original.

No, but that was one of Weird Al's better moments.

That song goes "Bye bye, Miss American Pie, my Chevy hit a levy but the levy was dry," ... "those good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye singing 'this will be the day that I die'..."

[Chptrk 86]

2240.

@Seattle, it's "Bye, bye, Miss American Pie, drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry, and good ol' boys were drinking whiskey and rye singing, "This will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die" *guitar pics up*

And I'd always thought that song mention Vladimir Lenin until I read the lyrics somewhere and noticed it was Lennon, as in John. Made a bit more sense then.

No, he didn't.

We've definitely had this argument before.

Previous 10k post thread perhaps?

The source of the rumour may be a parody article in The Umpteenth Times, titled "Weird" Al Satirizes Wu-Tang Clan, Funeral Held Saturday.

Can't link, contains swearing.

I have to say, participating in forum games is great for your post count. And that's a nice name tag astronelson, very environmentally friendly

[Larks2242 251]

2246.

Name tag? I always thought of it more as a username

[Vahr 341]

Think he means his CML

I meant the 100% electrons bit..... theirs a star in all of us kindof thinking behind it.

I really must stop posting 30 posts in 3 days?

EDIT

Blue you beat me by like a second. Darn.

[astronelson 339]

2249.

10 posts per day? Madness!

[Muck308 55]

Looks like he beat you by more than that!
