  1. Ah, well if we're getting pedantic; i never denied nuffink. I was implying that your getting clichéd, which is a shame (in my eyes).
  2. Sprouty Sproutday, Sprout!
  3. well then vote... :P
  4. Me and shorty and his lass went to see this at the cinema. The film prematurely ended 30 mins before it was supposed to, and we only got to watch the last part last night illegally... And the 'abrupt' ending was the best bit for me! I didn't even realise it was a musical, so I wasn't prepared for it. Y'see, I'm not a fan of musicals - I don't see what they add to the cinema experience. The singing slows down scenes and pads them out and I just get annoyed-- especially when the songs aren't even especially poetic, or unique. Depp's songs were often cliché "MY FRIEND!" and "my arm is now complete!" were tacky as heeellll... The acting was good throughout, as was, of course, the art direction, but the songs.. well maybe it'll need another watch. I didn't mind the songs in the last 30 mins, mind you, but there was nothing in it that could compare to Nightmare..'s "What's this? What's this?" song. And I didn't realise Sascha Baron Cohen was going to be in it, and I thought his part was great. I do have a general problem with Burton -- y'see, I watch it and I feel like I really, really ought to simply LOVE it, but I end up feeling like the film's missing something, or to be more precise, that I'm not noticing something. With Scissorhands[/i] in particular, I realised The film was waay better when I was depressed... So anyway, after first viewing, I'll give Sweeny Tod a reasonable 7/10. A second viewing will firmly establish it one way or the other, though. I didn't rate Corpse Bride much, nor Big Fish (even though others tell me I really ought to give that one another chance), maybe Burton's going downhill a bit?
  5. Most roles will depend on the write-up for clues, and that is what Dom's done. We've lost a lot of investigators and protectors, so it's hard to say what level of information we can still achieve. But what we have; Vicar's information, of which very little has been explained by Eenuh, Haggis, Jonnas, My Buttons are magic!, MoogleViper, Shino and Shorty (vicar, would be good if you could check your outbox for night 5. Did you not Coolness is Tphi. Owner of the forums, head of staff. Is he teh don? (I can't remember who said this) O_W is Chairdriver and a doctor - but also something else? McMad is a misdirector - Says Dom (and McMad agrees) Moogle is a timebanner - Says Dom (and moogle disagrees) Shorty's character ends in Y - Moria said this, shorty denies this, dead end. ... I can't remember any other clues we've had, but to me, "timebanner" is worse than "misdirector"... and "Tphi" is still a threat, in my eyes. It's going to be very unlikely that we will know 100%, but another reason the mafia won the space mafia game was because nobody listened to the real clues. Dom could be lying about his power, but McMad does not deny it. Moogle says Dom is wrong, I think that's because he knows he's been caught. I doubt that Dom is wrong only about one of these things. Moogle goes from saying he's unsure about his own keywords (even though CD sent them to us...) to saying he thinks Dom is lying about Moogle. Contradictory? Well, if moogle is right, then Dom is in the box...
  6. hey, I'm not denying that you know what you're talking about. It's just a shame you have to be provoked into using your imagination on the forum these days!
  7. damn you :P I only gave that a couple of tries and gave up. Started playing it through on hard and.. damn it really is hard so far... Well I'm just about to make my way to Jenny's house. Found one collectable I didn't have already, and an extra mystery phone number.
  8. I hate money. Hate it. I don't like having it in my pocket, and instead I like having DVDs, games and books on my shelves/floor as a sort of emblem of who I am. But when me and my ex split up the first time last july, I basically had take-aways every night, drank lots of booze every night and squandered lots of dosh on DVDs. I ended up scraping the bottom of my overdraft, and despite working 7 hours 5 days a week for 8 weeks over summer, I still bob in and out of it. I currently have enough money (including my overdraft...) to have approximately £600 to live on until mid-april, if I detract rent and bills first. My dad sends me £40 a week, which goes on food or booze/tobacco (depending on which way you look at it!). I can afford to survive until april, it's the summer run that will be troublesome. I will have the choice to either go home to brighton, do 7 hours for 5 days a week for 10 weeks and continue paying rent but not staying there... But if I do this I'll be less likely to be able to find a job that just wants me in term time. If I get a job this semester, then I'll likely not be able to go back to brighton... so I'm in a wee spot of bother at the moment deciding what to do. [/stuff nobody reads]
  9. You know, you need to work on some new metaphors because saying plow all the time just makes me think you can't say penis or vagina or sex because the words make you laugh so much.
  10. Well I could imagine being the maths teacher, but as has been said already, I know nothing about maths. You want to give them some sort of mental or physical traits or characteristics to shape the narration a little? Bounding these characters a little more may give people more ideas for assuming their roles.
  11. Well nightwolf you might get away with it, as we probably don't know you well enough so far... Thing is, you could pick whoever you like really. If they're like you, then people might think "oh, that's too obvious to really be x, it's probably someone else"... So how near to finish is Moogle then, ey? Arms broken is no longer a valid excuse!
  12. As I thought -- that virgo mumbo-jumbo applies to me too! Aw, shucks :P .. Yeah I don't really believe there are only twelve kinds of people either. It's nice to indulge in believing in faith once in a while, though.
  13. In all fairness... that is probably fairly accurate But, of course, bits liek this; ... are easily applied to all. I mean, aside from those five factors, what else is there that could be seen as a motivation in life? I'd be a "garden goat" according to that, but I do think that you could put up any old horiscope and I would be able to agree with more than half of it.
  14. Ah, I got her a couple of things she did want for the day, mind. She got me things she wants me to want -- new clothes and stuff. I'm a guy, I like dvds. How hard can it be.. I'm half-welsh, so can I get some of that lovin'? *reaises he's not going to even leave the house today...* Well crap.
  15. Aye that's fairly true, but teh Pav Tav is where you go when you've just turned 18 Stay away from there! When I wait ata bar I always just wait my turn, trying not to eye the barstaff too much as I can imagine that's uncomfortable. I never wave my money around as I see other people leaning right into the bar, money flashing about... Bah, I'm so conscious of how I'm being perceived all the time. But then, I know the barstaff have a rough idea of who to serve next based on who was there first, so I let them get on with that. What annoys me is when I've been patiently waiting for them to serve three or four people ahead of me, then proceeding to serve a fresh bunch of people who have just turned up because they don't have the balls to say "sorry, this guy down here is next". When they finally get to me I will say "you know, I was here way before those guys?" and they will usually apologise... and then all is forgotten, save a small whinge to me mates when I get back to the table :P
  16. Capricorn I be, and, er, I have no idea how accurate that is. Am I capricious? No idea. EDIT: Ah. Well, erm, I can lead but it's not like i get the opportunity to do that. I do take my time with some decisions, but I'm not organised. Less strong-minded and more open-minded, though.
  17. a draw!? against the lowest team in teh two leagues ¬_¬ Got another game against the next worst team up next... sigh.
  18. Just the one sock? Dude, your kind of driving'd get your arrested. Careful, now.
  19. I'd punch Derren Brown. Then i'd just say "he made me do it!!" And run away giggling.
  20. valentines day is stupid. Last year my ex- kept saying "buy me a roooose!" But I didn't. Why? Because every girl out there was given a rose. What's so special about that? It's symbolic only in saying "I adhere to the routine banalities that society tells me to do". I gave her a rose about a month later and she did admit that it was way more special that it would've been on V-day. This'll be my first valentines alone for a couple of years, but I don't think it'll be much of a problem! Just stay in watching TV. Or maybe go out and try and take advantage of any promotional drinks offers or something.
  21. Well you can eliminate one of the pros there -- the CV bit; that applies whether you stay or go, and surely is only most relevant when you do actually leave. I would say your university life is far more important. Of course I have no idea how much money you tend to spend, and most certainly going from a crapload of hours a week to no job at all will be a drastic change in spendable dosh... I suppose only 20 hours a week is probably a good half-way point, but at some point you will have to leave, won't you?
  22. That tall and still only size 5 feet? My mum and sister aren't much taller than 5 foot 5 and must hvae the same foot size. My legs are 34" long too and my feet are size 10 most of the time... You know that thing where your feet are the same length as your arm beween the wrist and elbow? And if you hold out your arms horizontally the span from tip of the finger one side to the other is the same as your height? Does that mean your upper arms are longer than usual, or your hands are, or your shoulders are? I dunno :P
  23. From an observer's point of view, this game went down a treat Unfortunately, I never got to do anything with my role, and did feel that my ending was a bit harsh.
  24. Firstly; it's genetics[/i] :P Secondly: I'm 5'10/11... I'm 21 but thanks to a lot of sleeping and lying down, I grew a bit last year :P I think I'm completely average in height. I'm taller than both of my parents -- just, for my dad. Only problems I've ever had with my height is... er... well not being mega-tall at gigs, I suppose. I walk with a little slouch most of the time, mind.
