Lately nothin. I have no gaming tribe to do stuff like that with. many eons ago I stayed up all night playing boardgames a lot. Robo Ralley. Kingmaker. Talisman. Rail Baron. Nuclear War. Catan. Quirks. Cosmic Encounter. god probably at least a few hundred other ones. Most of the sort of standard Milton/Bradley type board games are pretty much the same to me. but once you cross that super geeky line and fall in with actual gamers, you get introduced to a whole universe of new types of games. I probably haven't "gamed" in over a decade. But I miss it.

also don't let that stop you (viperxmns and misaka) from attempting to find individual solutions to people's icon troubles. we'll take it however we can get it, be that a code solution, or one avatar at a time.

avatars on SMF can be a hit and miss proposition. If it seems like it'll work better, we might try working a resize code into the CSS vs how it is now, which is everything gets resized via HTML or Java (which ever we check the box of). According to online sources, Java resize is worse than HTML resize, which is the one we're using. but if we can write something into the CSS, that may work better. I don't know enough about it to know, so viper will have to do it.

be someone else.

I had pretty much given up hope on ever seeing this show and lo and behold one day somebody randomly uploaded all of them to youtube. and I was like "holy fuck will you look at that".

sh. Code Geass will sue your ass just for saying that.

I have a theory that it was a souped up version of Magna's group. it could be a completely new group. but the encounter had a "magna-like" feel to me.

not that I recall. when they took Maggie to the Hilltop they drove quite a distance actually, further than they should have had to because the Saviors kept blocking the roads.

already responded to this plz stop bothering me with it.

The old board is the Proboard. That's the board this thread is about. I can maybe do up somebody's old custom rank I guess from ASMB (done a couple of those) though. been so long between posts + apparent confusion about the thread's intent kind of got me confused about what you are asking. so went and did that.

already did you way back a long time ago. mostly I caught up with this. only users from the proboard that have only recently joined this forum within maybe the last couple weeks I might have missed.

Alexandria and DC are fairly close together. Mostly I've seen them drive. Sometimes walking part way (from what I recall an undefined fraction of the distance, so they may well have already driven most of the way who knows). But mostly I've seen them drive. They drove to the Kingdom. Morgan and Carol also drove at least part way toward the Kingdom. Carol I think ran out of gas was it? And Morgan came part way with Rick and then they split up. The drove most of the way to the Hilltop I think before disembarking and trying to make it the rest of the way on foot. The Hilltop must be closer to Alexandria than the Kingdom. But still not super close. It seems like it'd be close enough maybe that one could make it in a really long walk but can't say for sure. Oceanside they drove. Heath and Tara were out foraging in a truck when she ended up crossing paths with Oceanside. The new place they drove to. They took cars following Gabriel and ended up surrounded by whoever the new people are. The Saviors I've pretty much only seen in vehicles going from place to place to collect their tributes. other than that, even encountered randomly they usually seem to be on motorcycles or in vehicles when away from their home compound/outposts. So I don't think they mostly walk between these communities, I think they mostly drive or ride horses (as cars become less useful as gas/fuel becomes more scarce in the comic). Even in the comic now they're on horses all the time to get from community to community. So I think they mostly drive to get to each others' places.

fuck that thing you maybe forgot. sleep is way better than whatever that thing is.

zeni isn't ril. he's a internet character like Beanie Babies or Rick Astley

i dono what that is. but it's only 37 dollars. and 2 and half star product rating. who WOULDN'T want to own such a thing?

Tobin is another one of those non-fleshed out characters that seems interesting to me. He's kind of a simple character, but he's had a handful of really great scenes that he's pulled off wonderfully. Like the stuff with Carol and then the stuff with Rick when he's trying to explain Alexandrians to him. He's also a character that doesn't have to speak or even have any arcs to hold the screen. Just seeing him in the background, you kind of feel like there's an actual character there and not just a throwaway filling space til he serves his actual purpose by dying dramatically (which is actually probably the case, since it's TWD, but still, he brings a nice gravity to the role).

Where's the big push for Friendship the Magician?

I'm also thinking this new group encountered at the end, might be a TV alternative-dimension variation of Magna and her group. it seems to have that vibe. And Magna would probably have tons of weapons around. Maybe like if Magna formed the Militia before the Saviors storyline finished on her own. So it'd be like The Militia in the comics, only Magna would have formed it on her own, and it's a separate community from the others.

this episode I actually kinda started to like Gregory. Even though he's an asshole, he has some of the best lines, the actor is really good, and it'll be sad when he inevitably gets kilt by stuff. It's kind of hilarious in a way that - like Rick and his group are all "we're gonna take on the Saviors" and yet they hit a brick wall with one slimey bureaucrat at the Hilltop. And he's not even that good a bureaucrat. He's such an interesting character. Like he's a coward, but he's a coward with enough balls to say no to Rick's face. Even Ezekiel had trouble doing that. Gregory was just like "hm lemme think about it - no."

in the comic but the show doesn't always follow the comic. So even though I marked it as a spoiler, doesn't mean it'll go down that way in the show.

My understanding is the communities are way far apart. The Hilltop, for example, is a historical site up on a hill surrounded by woods. I would disagree that it would be easy to just see the communities (one from the other) easily. I believe most of them are fairly far apart in terms of basic travel time. Kind of like - there are many cities around the one I live in. I can't see any of them, but if I get in a car and drive for anywhere 10 minutes to a few hours, I'd get to one. Where I think it tends to stretch credibility maybe is that Alexandria has been scouting pretty far out since its inception (or pretty close) Aaron and others would go out foraging, and also recruiting for the community. It seems odd he wouldn't have come across the Hilltop or the Kingdom or the Saviors. But then, maybe he just went out the same route all the time and hit the highway or something. Though that seems unlikely, as I would think they'd want to do different routes to cover as much ground as possible. The Kingdom and the Hilltop both grow and raise their own food, so it's conceivable they had no real reason to scout too far out, and rather stick close to their own place and just patrol for walkers and such to keep the area clear. The Saviors already do know about the Hilltop and the Kingdom when they arrive on the scene. It's clear that they don't seem to like to share information. IE - communities that are under the Saviors' thumb aren't going to find out about each other unless they find out themselves. It's kind of odd the Saviors hadn't happened upon Alexandria til just now. and it's odd given Alexandria's ongoing foraging/recruiting that they haven't found any of these places before now. But I'd say there's wiggle room there. According to the comics, I believe Alexandria is Alexandria Virginia, The Kingdom is actually in Washington DC, The Hilltop is out somewhere in Rural Virginia, Oceanside is on the East Coast of Virginia (probably), and the Saviors are probably somewhere in the middle of that area. It's not been made clear. but at any rate, most of these places are probably at least 10 miles or more away from each other. And I would think they mostly probably have walls to keep the light from going out, or don't burn a lot of lights at night so they don't attract walkers. so it's I guess conceivable, more for some groups than for others. Mainly not sure how the Saviors and Alexandria haven't run into each other before now, or Alexandria hasn't managed to stumble onto one of these other communities with all the trips they take to forage and look for people.

I think Rick was smiling at the end of the episode because he was like

also this.
