I wish it wasn't so boring going around tapping each building. I need a lot of cash to get the new $10 million building they added. I know I could do it pretty quickly if I played a couple times a day, but I don't have the patience for that. This event will draw me back in a bit more though. I like that they have staged it a bit so that new things open up later in the month. That should keep it interesting. And with the gremlins, I just send everything I have to whatever town I happen to be visiting. I don't think they bring too many extra items to anyone. I did run into a nice little glitch in the game yesterday. I shot down a UFO in a town and it started a little loop where I kept getting the reward for it over and over. I think I got about 10 of the treat bags before it finally stopped. I hope I run into that problem a few more times.

Can't wait. For some reason, I get the feeling that they're going to finish of the Terminus story very quickly and move on to something else completely.

I sped up the first reward with donuts. I'm going to play the rest of it normally. Anyway, I think there's a daily cap on the halloween rewards kind of like what they do with the friend points. You only get the halloween stuff for the first X monsters you click on in another town, per day. I hope their changes to how you buy buildings and decorations work out well. It was getting to be a pain in the ass to find the right kind of fence when expanding your town. edit: Oh, and nice Beerball pond at the bottom of your town.

Please tell me he landed a foot short of the endzone in that one.

Shouldn't someone who actually played for Schwartz be the one to make this comment?

I think it may be the original wording of "their grand unveiling". That makes it sound like the Pegula's are going to be very visible in the whole thing. I wouldn't expect to see much of them at all. You'll get some sort of parading of alumni, but you'll see very little of those two. That's how it should be. Actually, what they should really do is some sort of major ceremony or video tribute to Ralph. I'm not even sure how much they did at opening week, but that doesn't matter. This is the perfect time to do something like that one more time.

How about only referring to players by their number or initials (here or any other sports board)? There's too many duplicate initials out there and rosters turn over too quickly now. The number thing is probably more of a hockey thing though, typically when listing out line combinations.

Speaking about annoying internet habits, how about people feeling the need to post "IN" when a duplicate thread is started.

I was wondering the same thing. It seems like most of the time we are hearing MRI results before the game is even finished.

"I don't feel tardy"

Your post wasn't gibberish. I'm not entirely sure how pointing out that it's a tough job comes across as making this political.

They do this with everything now though. Everything exists so that we can find something to complain about.

I hope they got the name dropping of future villains out of the way with the pilot. They were a bit over the top with all of that. The Penguin looks like he could get an interesting story line, but the rest really didn't need to be included. Otherwise, the show was fine. I don't know what to expect from this one though. I want it to be good but I really don't have the highest hopes. On another note, how many different times have we seen the Wayne murders over the years now? I'd say somewhere around 85 times. I'm surprised that they went a little more graphic with this show than I expected, with those blood splatters as they were shot.

I've had similar thoughts about that cast. It's amazing how they can take a group like that and still put together trailers that send you running away in fear of your life. The fall can't get here soon enough. I'd really like there to be at least one movie out there that I'm interested in.

Yeah, I don't know how someone with some free time deciding to do some photoshopping reflects poorly on the Ravens' PR department.

The only power ranking I believe in is the one that says "Buffalo: 2-0".

They better get every single one of those details out there in the next few days, solidify that legacy.

Just out of curiosity, how many NFL owners do own another sports franchise?

And strangely enough, it was probably Conte that kept him out of the endzone.

Rough on the family though. It can't be easy losing out on the chance of an open casket wake.

What are the odds of this plane not crashing into the ocean. I can't believe it actually hit one of the islands.

The whole thing is a lose-lose situation for them. If they didn't respond, people out there would say that they are condoning the situation. Then there would also be the people who say they leaked it themselves. No matter what, the people who want to attack these celebrities will find a way to do that.

This is definitely a good thing to push for if possible. If it is a big company, HR is going to go out of their way to make sure you get the lowest amount possible, especially with zero experience. I was lucky enough with my first job to have my boss push for a 6 month evaluation (I was completely clueless at that point and didn't know to ask for one). They completely low-balled me on that starting salary, and really, with every salary I ever made at that place. Still, you have to start somewhere and if you can get that slightly earlier raise, every penny helps.

I can't help but view Jackson as a big sign of the failures of this organization, even though it's no fault of his own. Three different RBs drafted in the first round have been with this team over his time here. This kind of lack of vision when it comes to talent evaluation is why this team is where it is right now. It's a great credit to him that he has been able to put up the numbers he has with those other guys around, but to me he's a constant reminder or an era I want to forget. He deserves better and I hope he gets it here.

I just started a new job in August and originally when I gave my salary requirement, my now boss chuckled a bit and told me "yeah, we can do better than that". They wound up giving me $10k more than my number. I wish all of these conversations went that way.
