  1. Re:Wrong. The key ingredient is: on RPG Codex - Articles On Video Game Design · · Score: 1

    Timothy Cain and Leon Boyarsky, two of the four authors listed, were behind the original Fallout game and are co-founders of Trokia games.

    So if you like Fallout, go check out what some of the main people behind it have to say about RPG design.

  2. Re:Here's a hint on Stanford Jumps Into Cloning Fray · · Score: 1

    Using the term Pro-Abortion means one is biased?

    I suppose you would like Pro-Choice instead. Well, what kind of choice are you in favor of? The choice to have an abortion or not.

    Is it even possible to be Pro-Choice and Anti-Abortion?

    Now if Dale Dunn had said something like Pro-Life vrs Pro-Death, perhaps I would agree with your attack. Also if you had attacked the term Pro-Life I might be able to follow your reasoning, as it seems to me the term Pro-Life is inherently biased to one side.

    As it stands though you sound like some general calling it collateral damage and getting mad when the journalist calls it civilian casualties. Don't hide behind nice sounding words, if you think abortion is acceptable in some cases, come right out and say it.

  3. Re:Yes, VOTE! on Slashdot, The Elections, and Space Exploration · · Score: 2

    Actually due to something called The Electoral College your vote does not matter. You do not elect the president.
    From the FAQ "Your vote helps decide which candidate receives your State's electoral votes. It is possible that an elector could ignore the results of the popular vote, but that occurs very rarely."

    I want someone to give me a good reason why I should vote for the president. As long as we have The Electoral College I will not vote for president.

  4. Re:US vs. the world on Motorola's Getting To Know You · · Score: 2

    "Contrary to what people think, even though corporations influence politicians, the vote still counts (because that's how the prez gets elected, go figure), so they still pay a lot of attention to what the public considers acceptable. "

    Now isn't that just special.

You can't influance people with p0rn? Sex is used all the time by marketing departments. When is the last time you have seen a Coke add with blood and guts?
