Yeah, I should probably be a little bit more careful. I decided to play more offensively this game, but I think I'll end up on the defensive anyway.
How did that merit a double facepalm?
That's a good point...though I was hardly stalking, just checking his profile every hour to see if he posted...

Yeah, I'm taking it to seriously. :)
We have a few threads about things that could have been improved on (an understatement, I know) in the PT, but how about the OT? What could have been done differently?
EDIT: To clarify, this does not include technical flaws, but story points, characterizations, etc.
When I have time to type out a longer post, I will, but for now I'll just say that the Ewoks should have been a lot less cute and cuddly and the stormtroopers should have been actually being able to fire a blaster.

I think you might be taking this too seriously. ;)

January 14:
A.D. 1514: A papal bull against slavery is issued by Pope Leo X.
A.D. 1690: The clarinet is invented in Germany.
Important because I play it.
A.D. 1794 AD: The first successful Cesarean section is performed in Virginia by Dr. Jessee [sic] Bennet on his wife.
Important because that's how I was born.
A.D. 1878: Racial separation on trains is deemed unconstitutional in the U.S.
That's two important anti-racist actions on the same day.
Yes, I hate when Star Wars becomes too sci-fi and has to have a scientific explanation for everything. I used to like that, but then I realized that the scientific explanations are no more realistic than the alternative.
Come on Frink, just get it over with!...unless you have big plans for your 30,000th post and you need preparation time.
Even so, hurry it up!
Sorry we couldn't get farther this evening, but my evenings tend to be pretty busy unless it's the holidays.
I can see how this could be a fast game.

Yeah, Frink, this thread should have picked up where the other thread left off, not begun it before you reached your first goal!

Hey, seriously you did well. if you'd dropped instead of moving the king, it might have been the twenty you'd predicted. In any case, I hope you've been reading up on the other variants I've suggested.
Sort of. I've taken a look at them all, but I haven't done much more than that yet.
I think they could be fun and quick. I won't be able to play while at work (unless we can find something similar to assist my visualization), but I think they will be fun. We'll just have to wait till evening. Did you get that other software working correctly?
I haven't yet sorted everything out because I don't want to spend too much time on it when I should be studying. Yesterday I wasn't home all afternoon and part of the evening, so I didn't have time then either. I might figure it out this evening, but if not, I should have it figured out tomorrow evening.

I think we're getting close, but unless I do something stupid or you do something really smart, I think I can hold off for another twenty turns or so (granted, that is slightly optimistic, but if I play well...).
And...I lasted nine more turns. :)
So one would hope, but they could be just as bad. I say don't get your expectations too high and then you'll better enjoy the movie when it comes.
Gotcha, good game.
I was considering a drop earlier, but I decided to do it a turn later. I wasn't really allowing for paratrooping, which I see I should have.
I meant that that is no where near my King. I think you typed the wrong drop in.
Is that a typo...?

No problem.

I dropped my SG on 4g, not 4h, so you may want to correct that.
