Happy hangover day, Dazz!

Vanilla/bare bones mafias go back to basics, where essentially there's only supposed to be a couple of investigators and a killer. Most of the 'action' is during daytime phases with debates and lies and treachery.

Yvonne; posts made in playground do not count towards your postcount so I'm a bit unsure whether you'll be able to post links/vids/images just by getting posts up in games I'm afraid! Just realised my game is 3rd in the list, which means I have probably a month before sign-ups. Best get those roles sorted.

Genuinely, like, never ever had a massive report. Depressing :'(

SO I tend to avoid this thread because it's full of all sorts of spoilARS for stuff I've not decided to get into yet. But newsnight just said that marvel are killing off spiderman. Anyone want to clarify this for me?

I'll wait for the movie/documentary to change my mind from "he entertained, he died."

The film is honestly a lot more boring than the original text. The main character (blomquist?) was far too subtle. The tattoo is something that I never truly appreciated - I think there's a paragraph somehwere explaining why she got the tattoo, but I don't recall which book it's even in. In fairness none of the book titles are particularly appropriate or relevant to the subject itself. I indeed fell asleep through the original. I appreciate that lisbeth is all-round agreed to be a very accurate representation of lisbeth in the books, but generally speaking crime 'thrillers' such as this never translate great to the screen, big or small, because a lot of the narrative tends to be descriptive, or thought-led. In terms of translation the film was fairly accurate; it did not really miss much, it didn't add or derail from the story. The trailer for the americanised version is probably my favourite trailer for any movie for a while - probably because I've read the books and it was just extra familiar to me - but being able to focus on the image rather than the subtitles may lend a great deal of favour to this sort of dialogue-driven movie. I would say that if you watch Maltease Falcon, or other similar noir movies, you'll enjoy The Girl With THe Dragon Tattoo. If you don't read crime fiction (I'm still surprised it's, essentially, the best selling genre) then I don't think the scandinavian films will do much for you. It's all in the books (which truly are a great read).

Surprised I did so well - glad to stand on the podium with haden. We'll hug/copulate. Do it again!
-
We still have a killer after sprout's gone. In the next day phase it will be wise to re-read this phase and bring back what info we have (including the voting patterns!) Someone please vote already.

ZOMG er-no. That, my friends, is old-school. Lolling!
-
Cool Just wondering though - what's the logic?
-
In most seasons, I agree It's effectively what it's all about - promotion/relegation happen, but the report is what sets the tone for the following year. I've got a few 15+ guys again, but last season I pretty much had my worst change report ever. Neeeeed a good one!

I don't understand. Is jidder a bicycle now?
-
Vote: Sprout. yvonne's bought my trust with her trust in me Ese is acting very... silly about the whole thing. Eenuh is still, ofc, a huge worry. Even as a neutral, frankly I highly doubt that she would be able to win if MI6 was still around. Trev hates MI6!

So I'm the only one who came in here hoping there was a video? KIDDING.

NE Xpert 11 be part of history in the making.

Just to point out; many people have given it a go for even only one season. You don't have to commit massively to it - it's just worth a go, even if you don't like football. The focus is on tactics and strategy, and essentially the x11 thread is a nice little banter zone if you're into that sort of thing. I currently (due to time and laziness) put approximately 30 minutes of time into x11 a week - over the space of four days. Monday nights I set my tactics, tuesday I read the match report/post in the x11 thread here, then again thurs/fri I do the same. You can set tactics for games ahead of time too. As I say - it's worth giving a go. Ultimately it's worth the chance. -
Yeah - the sort of people tent makers claim fit in their wares are a pygmy race of siamese twins or something. Essentially a two-man tent is just about the size of my bed with a cover over it.

That would be double-plus good.

Cousin posted this on his facebook; Emile Heskey (England) 59 caps, 7 goals. Rene Higuita (Colombia) 68 caps, 8 goals. Jose Luis Chilavert (Paraguay) 74 caps, 8 goals. Unlucky Emile, the other two are goalkeepers... Made me lol.

I should've been in bed an hour ago (to reiterate my dedication to my innocence) so I'll head off now. Won't be able to post 'til 6ish tomorrow so hey! go crazy. I'd recommend checking on heroijan's story. Also, if odin is central to the 'story' tales is spinning, it's not uncertain that thor won't be trying to take the throne or something. Currently that's pure speculation, but unlike you nuggets I'm just going to state this rumour rather than waste everyone's time. Again; check who's voted for me. They're not being smart.

... Why? Why spend so much attention on what you think I'd've said when actually it's what you would've said in my shoes. All I'm asking is you evaluate why you're suspicious of me. At the moment you and peeps are simply interrogating me as if I'm already evil. I'm just asking you consider that I'm telling the truth, and see how that effects your current standpoint. Personally I'm just looking at you two and thinking that you're clutching at straws. heroijan I've no idea if you are the character I found via google, but from what you're saying you're claiming to be a derived interpretation of me. Are you Freyja? The accusations of "being quiet" are met with "I was away, and now I'm here and noisy!" Again - take a step back and actually look at what you're saying, guys. You can't say I'm both too quiet yet too defensive. I've explained my previous quietness, and it's only obvious that someone with a bunch of votes is going to defend their position. Peeps; I want you to re-read all I've posted today with the assumtion "this guy is town" and see how what I say makes utter sense. Heroijan; I can't contact anyone at all.
-
I'm frigg. I'm saying I googled "norse goddess of love" to see who heroijan is, and got that result. You're still refusing to be objective about my posts, and that's not going to help you in the long run. I'm happy to martyr myself because I am good.

Me or shorty? Get a uk SIM card, it'll be uk number that dials and charges at uk rates so you'll avoid international charges that you'd get on your current SIM card. The SIM card is the thing that goes in your phone under the battery, y'dig? Shorty's saying get a UK sim with £10 of credit that should cover you for the time you're here... Yeah I dunno what you don't know or if this is helpful
