[quote who="Morberis" reply="109" id="2749536"] Uh huh. Apparently for the second time in a whole year. She's a dynamo. Yeah sorry why would she get all bent out of shape about a temporary banning? He's been banned before and will be again and I've never seen her get mad about it. If you're going to go off about her review argue about the points in the review not the woman. Why pick the book? Because Elemental was a h
[quote who="Xan" reply="102" id="2749500"] You know, reading this thread got me thinking the same thing. The number of people willing to go to bat for a bad novel is astounding. It's called decency. It has nothing to do with whether the book is good or not. I have no idea and I don't care. It's about really loathsome people who take pleasure in trying to hurt other people. These aren't people ridiculing some book by some author they've never m
[quote who="Jam Sandwich" reply="88" id="2749448"] Yeah, look, you're wrong. You're wrong because you're guessing on the thinnest of clues and because you have no idea of what the hell QT3 is or Brad's relationship is or who angie and Matt are. [/quote] *laughs* Sorry you are just being hilarious. Yes, the issue is just so complex. Her hubby gets banned and two days later, bam, here comes the first review she's written since the start of the year. [q
[quote who="hairrorist" reply="83" id="2749429"]Source: It's buried in the elemental thread somewhere, when the book is mentioned, Angie pipes in and says that sounds like unamommer fodder if I remember correctly.[/quote] LOL. So according to what you said, she planned on shitting on it before it came out. Occam's Razor, doesn't jive with you. Husband gets banned from their site and pissed off wife comes out of retirement to shit on book with her comic-book guy friends p
[quote who="hairrorist" reply="76" id="2749410"]FYI, that book review was announced months ago, long before the Wardell/Matt argument began.[/quote] Source? And how long did the "Wardell/Matt" start?
[quote]It's clear you people have no reading comprehension. Angie/Unnammomer reviews laughably horrible books, it's part of what she does. She doesn't spit when she says his name and she's entirely reasonable.[/quote] LOL. http://www.unamommer.com/ Review of Destiny's Embers: August 28, 2010. The last book she reviewed: January 3, 2010.

[quote who="hairrorist" reply="70" id="2749380"]Also, in what kind of bizarro 1950's Leave it to Beaver world do you live in where spouses hold the same opinions?[/quote] You're adorable. Husband gets banned from a game forum. Wife decides to "review" the book written by someone who caused her husband to get banned from.The book is merely the medium for these sad people to vent their hate.
[quote who="surlybob" reply="59" id="2749333"] Quoting TheJaker, reply 56Heh. I learned about QuarterToThree.com thanks to PC Gamer and discovered a hilarious thread: http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?t=60997 Check out the asshole parade in that thread.

I'm somewhat disappointed with the game at launch. The pre launch version of the game crashed on me repeatedly. The current version works as well as any game but the magic is generic. I'm looking forward to see what they do about that.
Heh. I learned about QuarterToThree.com thanks to PC Gamer and discovered a hilarious thread: http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?t=60997 Check out the asshole parade in that thread. It's hilarious. They're obsessed with Brad Wardell.
Brad's posts had me thinking the beta was going to make me catch cancer or something. I think he might be right. I don't want to get my hopes too high but how many YEARS away is this? Don't get me wrong I like it. I just think there's a long....long....LONG way ahead. Keep up the good work. and good luck!
I'm surprised anyone defending Steam exclusivity would try to ignore the modding issue. I presume they don't use mods? Steam requires games to have the latest version of the game without exception. Mods, by contrast, sometimes lag behind a bit and have to be updated. My favorite mod might not work with the latest version right away.
[quote who="RAWRRRR" reply="28" id="2612619"]I'm sure you also still use a horse and buggy, refusing to buy a car (which they only created so they would have a larger market for crude oil anyway)[/quote] You consider a world where all PC games come from Steam to be progress? Interesting.
I've owned every Civilization title since the first. I won't be getting Civilization 5. I don't hate Steam (though I'm starting to) I just don't like my PC games starting to feel kludged together and that's what every Steamworks game feels like to me. Supreme Commander 2 anyone?
Be careful, Brad. Beta 1Z is pretty damn fun. If it weren't for the out of memory problems I'd be one of those people saying to quit being so perfectionist.
I liked Civilization IV but they'll need to do something special for Civ V to get me to buy it. With all the mods I've got for Civ IV already it'll have to be pretty spectacular. I'm on the fence.
Does Civilization 5 have dragons?
[quote]It's kind of a stretch including elemental in the company of those games.[/quote] You some kind of troll? Elemental not in the same company as Civilization 5? What planet you been living on?
