    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    Meeting people like that can drive people away from the hobby but I wouldn't say the contrary is true. For example, maybe the club owners did exactly what you advise, they banned those customers, but since you never set foot in the club again, they haven't recovered you as a customer. In my...

    "Very well, then everybody except me and Lochan should head back to sleep. Zerren, I'd appreciate if you could rest a bit now too and later join us guarding the camp. Let's all have a four hours shift, and eight hours of sound sleep. We'll need it."

    "Zerren, we spent the whole night traveling through the desert, and we are quite tired now. Do you think we should go and face this fiend now, or can we wait for the dusk? What is the evil within the temple and what is it doing as we speak?"

    Duncan notices the dragon has Teppic's trust, so he nods at his words. "Now you've find us, please take a deep breathe and relax. Oh, my name is Duncan, by the way. Some call me the Brown Warrior." He sits in front of the dragon on the hot sand. "Now tell us what happened, slowly, from the...

    "A little dragon? Now that's something interesting." he steps into the tent to wake up Teppic, and tells him to wake up the others too, then he goes back outside to welcome the dragon, his hand raised in a greeting gesture, but also ready to grab the sword on his back.

    "Do you think that's coming here? and do you happen to know what the hell it could be?" The brown warrior asks Lochan, as he shields his eyes from the sun to better look at the flying thing.

    Joshua Dyal and ledded, since you disagree so much with Dr.Strangemonkey, could you please add your own views on the matter? I'm still curious. ledded, I looked for the statistics you talked about: according to Unesco 98% of italians and 97% of americans reach the end of secondary school. I...

    "That is a good point, Teppic. That means we'll all be more tired tomorrow, but I don't think it's a bad idea. Mmm. Listen to me. You and I will take a shift of half a day each, five hours. Lochan and Skor will take instead shifts of four hours, and Talsia will take the last two hours in the...

    I'll take second or the fourth shift, so you can sleep better. Let's leave to Talsia the last one, we need her rested tomorrow. And if you really able to speak with your god, ask him who is the one without a key, why shimmering people call him a liar, if the children are still alive and how we...

    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    Yeah, since I've been a scout for 13 years, I've seen my fair share of boar packs. One even crossed our camp once. Near where I live, there are some wolves, but they are a lot less conspicuous. It's nice to know that less than 40 miles from home there are places where I can see eagles and roe...

    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    Italy has so many laws to protect tenants that it often scares the owners, who prefer to sell than to rent. Also, traditionally, italians despise monthly payments, not only for houses, but also about cars and everything else. hire purchase is way less common than in the US.

    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    Unemployment in Italy, but I think in Spain too, is a regional thing. There are areas where there is 15% unemployment rate, and areas, like where I live in, where the only unemployed people are the hopeless drunk.

    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    Thanks a lot, Doc, these are the kind of answers I was looking for. I went to check numbers about divorce, and well, they are quite impressive: in 2002 italy had the lowest divorce rate in Europe, with 7 divorces every 10.000 inhabitants. US the same year had a rate of about 40 divorces every...

    Are gamers really that pathetic?

    What screams independence about you and your parents paying two rents when you could help them pay only one, and put the money away to help your sons study too? Did your parents rent your room to someone else while you were away? Otherwise it's just a waste to me. I don't understand and I guess...

    What, no Olympics thread?

    Nope. The olympic Argentina team (olympic teams are quite different from national teams) was way too strong. We managed to score a goal, and that's more than anyone else has done. Only bronze for our soccer, but it's no shame losing against such a team. The final was Paraguay-Argentina 0-1.
