  1. I think it's most likely the mafia doesn't have a way to affect a 1-time daypower directly, or at least effectively. The best thing they can do is, and me explaining this would defeat the purpose of Chair asking the question, is to bluff their way, and ask to be investigated. Of course, if there is anyone amongst the mafia who would appear good anyway, this person would be safe. Chair just wants to see the reactions to his question, decide who's reactions he deems genuine, and then for maximum effect he should go for a random person amongst the people who's reactions he doesn't deem genuine or who didn't react at all or defensively.
  2. No, actually, it is a good question.
  3. Yeah, never mind . I'm a dumb-ass, I misinterpreted my PM. Your first post wasn't there yet when I started posting, but I figured it out when I read it afterwards. Anyway, I'm not roleblocked, it worked perfectly fine. I'm the red & beige creature by the way. Well, sort of.
  4. That just made me laugh. I can be easily amused sometimes. Oh well, seems someone took my comment to heart, and actually targeted me last-minute. And it'll probably seem suspicious, with there not being a kill, but it looks like I'm roleblocked (unless there's anothere effect to it). Probably by Toon Link. For the record, I think the write-up suggests the mafia's target is protected, so leave me alone!
  5. vote: jayseven For making a "first" post.
  6. I'm available for targeting guys, if anyone wants to change their plans.
  7. (or upsetting the balance..)

  8. Nah, I just meant, that yes, if I had to choose, I'd signed up for jayseven's game, but I don't expect him to start any time soon. And I'd like to play most games, but preferrably not more than 2 at the same time.

     

    Anyway, PM sent.. If a new role isn't too much effort, I'll gladly join.

  9. I didn't request permission, I was rhetorically asking if I could, which obviously is the case.. Anyway, just wanted to express some disappointment.
  10. Which would be a major disappointment as well as the black box is actually orange.. Must.. Say.. Something on-topic. The trailer didn't excite me. It screamed "meh" (how it can scream "meh" is beyond the scope of this conversation). Perhaps if I saw more gameplay, but so far it looks a bit boring to me. It probably won't matter, it's not likely to be released here. A black box is cool though .
  11. Because I still want to share this fairly amusing and adorable video.
  12. No problem. And obviously the video works (as does the first one in the OP). Like I said, I had to do some googling, but I started with those 2 tags because I noticed you using the object tag while Gametrailers themselves (below their videos) suggest using the embed tag. I can't quickly find a currrent applicable explanation.. Object seemed to be the standard, and embed was going to be deprecated, but it seems they brought it back for compatability in HTML5 because it's used so much. Strange object doesn't work at all though, unless there's something wrong with your syntax of it, or with any of the attributes. I don't see any direct reference to the video (source url) in the object code, perhaps that's it? But from what I gather.. The embed tag is the way to go.
  13. Where is the funny videos thread by the way? I can only find a closed one. I also have a fairly amusing (and cute) video to share.

    Portal 2

    Ah yes, sarcasm. You must teach me this. I never played the bonus missions by the way, I'll look into those. Was anyone else hardcore enough to disable portal funneling? Wasn't a problem most of the time, but there was one level near the end I had to do 20 50 times over (because I kept falling in a pool of toxins ). And the achievement for falling a great distance, actually becomes a challenge (didn't get it :P).

    Portal 2

    Those boots seems made for landing. Anyway, you could fall from any height in Portal 1 as well as I recall? Chell didn't have stylish boots, but did have some sort of leg "enhancers" I believe. Can't remember falling to my death. Unless it was in a pool of toxins.
  16. The thing is.. I doubt it's because IE is simply incapable of displaying those videos. Say all you want, but before I started using Chrome, I can't remember any big problems IE had. Sure, display errors like I've posted here before (and it still seems to have), but no things that simply didn't work at all. IE doesn't have a problem with Flash in itself.. What codecs are those GameTrailer videos using? Look at this page: http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/Graphics/VideoFormatSupport/Default.html Everything works there. Perhaps there's simply some IE specific code missing from you ehh code? [link] Edit: Fact is, the above video (and I assume the ones you posted as well), simply works when viewed on the Gametrailers site, on IE 9 & 10 (and I could test 5, 7 and 8 as well). So it must be something in the embed code.. It's been a while for me, looking at code . Had to do some googling, how about that. I still don't know the specifics, but it seems to be an object vs embed thing. Solution: Get the embed code out of the object code nest. The object code still won't work, but the embed code will. Edit: Final comment: Using the embed code in itself, it works on IE 5 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10, Firefox 4, Chrome 10, Opera 10. The object code, on the other hand, doesn't work on any of them. So there lies your problem.
  17. Just curious, did you find the problem yet? Anyway, it's not working in IE 10 either :p.
  18. Apparently he's taking James Cameron's advice. I'm all in favour of this new trend. I assume this movie's shot in 3D (as opposed to 3D-fied in post-processing like many other movies)? And probably using RED cameras.. The Hobbit's going to look gorgeous.
  19. When not on duty, some Chinese (?) soldiers enjoy some quidditch in preparation for their invasion of the West next mission.
  20. I'm fine with all the delays! I'd probably like to play most of them, but not at the same time!
  21. I guess this is the most appropriate place to post this:
  22. I care about the characters, and what happens to them. I would have liked it if I had the choice to not read the updates, and have the students come to me when they have a problem, so I won't have to pretend I do not know what's going on. Still, I generally liked reading the updates, i.e. getting the story out of 'm. But there's a lot of fluff. All those short reactions to other posts.. And the 12 chan feature.. That is when it becomes a chore . You want to skim these, but you still have to keep clicking on them, otherwise you'll just have a pile of new messages to read at the end of the day, when the context will be gone as well. Anyway, like you said, that's just the game as it is. And as it is, it's fine . I may try those other games later.

    Portal 2

    I just heard about it this afternoon. Something about buying that indie pack on Steam. I only want Meat Boy and Amnesia (as far as I can recall), but I don't have a good controlpad for Meat Boy, and Amnesia I'll also buy later, but directly from the developers. But these games seem to contain some hints. To be honest, I think those cross-game promotions is getting out of hand on Steam.. All those stupid pre-order hats..
