    Pacing? I always thought that was the one thing Dan Brown was good at his books are shit but the pages turn themselves.

    My opinion of Dan Brown is he's an Epic Troll he mixes half truths with full lies and misinterpret/misrepresents everything to generate a good amount of controversy == marketing.

  13. Re:My vote, my business on Legal War For WA State Sunshine Law · · Score: 3, Informative

    This is a very well written and intelligent post, however there's one small problem with it. There never has been any expectation of privacy on these kinds of petitions. Actually back in the day when petitions like these could carry grave consequences all the name would be publicly listed, the only "privacy" was they wouldn't identify the ring leaders.

  15. Senior Project on Surfacescapes D&D Demo · · Score: 1

    I actually did something like this for my senior year project. We tried to make a Warhammer 40k game. We didn't use MS surface we used Reactivision, to do the tracking. And Reactivision was actually much better than most of the other implementations because it could also track an objects orientation. We never really got it to work that well but it was a fun project
