  • It's almost that time... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6i0E4BMmr4 EXCITEMENT
  • While I loved District 9, it probably didn't stand a chance for Best Picture. But I'm still mad that Children of Men didn't win that award.

  • It was nice knowing you!
  • SIP? Like one of those cups that kids use so they don't spill their apple juice?
  • Q: What do you call a Paras that specializes in the study of mental phenomena that are excluded from or inexplicable by orthodox scientific study? A: A Paras-psychologist!
  • Q: What do you call a Paras that answers your phone and schedules your appointments? A: A Parasecretary!
  • Sorry I forgot to do the February theme. Thought I'd make up for it by metallifying my old-school Makarvatar. Here's the full-size pic for posterity!

  • I keep refreshing every now and then, just to make sure.
  • Javier, come back to us more often!

  • Them's some beautiful Kilo-class armaments. Nice to see the scoop design at work! Successor's got a lot of cool extras like that reflector shield.
  • Sorry I haven't been on iChat more often, and/or drinking at home. ^__^ I feel the love!
  • Another massive Successor ship I took an extremely slow approach to this ship (1.5 hours!), and it seemed to pay off; despite somewhat weak firepower, I eventually got it to duke a Kilo-class. Didn't beat him, but it was a hell of a ride. It took me FOREVER to find ships with constant thrust, and it's a pain to have only…

  • Successor Ship I too had a hell of a time finding engines, but the firepower was nice. EDIT: HOLY SHIT THIS ONE'S WAY BETTER It's a friggin' tank.
  • That ship does nicely! And playing through with it gave me some great ship design inspiration. Ended up building a killer array or structures in the back of the ship protecting thrusters from attack.
  • The scoop design also comes in handy to envelop enemy ships and blast 'em away. I'll usually circle around to a side of their ship that isn't armed, interlock with the ship and fire at will. Captain Successor has a surprising depth in terms of custom configuration. It's sometimes difficult to decide what type of ship to…
  • The ship save is just to show off your creations. Kilo-class is definitely attainable! It all comes down to key building decisions made early in the game, since it's often difficult to tear down and rebuild when a cache of new ship supplies comes along. My strategy is to build two wings outward from the command module and…
  • I don't recall how long you have to play, but if you survive to a certain point, then after death you'll see a screen allowing you to generate URLs for Twitter, Facebook and the like. Just bought the full version of the game last night, Captain Successor! Looks much more in-depth in terms of strategy and variety of ship…
  • This one turned out pretty well! I just took it for a spin and got to Juliet before being annihilated. I'll try to find more of my saved ships (I usually post the best ones to Twitter). EDIT: This one's even better. It's got Juilet-class guns! I accidentally placed a turret on the right side that fires spread shots, so you…
  • Watched last night. WOW. I wasn't a big fan of the Holmes actor but everything else was a delight. I always knew something was missing from Sherlock Holmes stories, and that something turned out to be making all the enemies robots or cyborgs. After having seen a few The Asylum movies, I feel like this one was the classiest…
  • Sometimes you just have to cut and run. If I've got enough thrust I'll sometimes slap pieces onto my ship haphazardly, rocket a safe distance away from attackers and regroup. This tactic is nearly impossible when you reach Kilo-class though.
  • Dude, kickass! Let us know when it's published.

  • Judith is another fun short game I found. The game makes neat use of repetitive actions for story advancement by way of the character having dreams running parallel with a distant past, yielding the means of advancement. Very simple gameplay, but a cool method of storytelling. I've been playing a lot of Captain Forever…
  • I realize that trying to match the sexy shrug is a daunting task, but you gotta have goals! People should see how it came out; maybe they can provide some pointers. Lauren's Sexy Shrug, take one!

  • Bought my iMac in 2007, had my own eMac before that since 2002, built a PC tower before that in 1996. I'd probably go insane from brain explosion if I didn't have a computer of my own. Of course, it'd be hard to continue to share a computer with family when I'm not living with family. I own more than one computer but would…
