Alrighty folks...start letting people know if they guessed which fact was the lie.

My lie was the cat...Neville is dog, not a cat.

So which one was your lie?

What I am pretty sure are lies:

Woobies, I know you have a cat named Neville so I am assuming your not deaf.

Eurrsk - Although it sounds like an awesome middle name I am doubting thats true.

Nick - For me the pinkies are the lie.

Varel - I don't think you have any problem performing in public.

Dtronski - I'm pretty sure you have talked about your kittens in game, so the lie is that your a detective, alough a close second was the not being married.

For me:

1. I am engaged to another member of this guild.

2. I am a cancer survivor.

3. I have a baby that was conceived the one and only time I had sex with a woman.

Lies:

Woobies -- You're not deaf. There is a piano behind you in your profile pic, so you're probably a musician. There are very few deaf musicians existed in history (Beethoven being the only one I know of and he's not deaf until later in his career.)

Eurrsk -- You don't have Aspergers. Just a wild guess on my part here, it's not very common that autistics play MMO.

MicholasJohn16 -- You don't have knuckle problem with your pinkies. This is simply based on deductive rationalization. You helped found Stonewall Fleet so #3 could be interpret as such...and your profile clearly said you're in KY and missing Chicago.

Varel -- I don't think that you was in the Musical Theater program at Ithaca College...not exactly sure where that is and what the program is like but, you put too much details on that line of info; most of the time, people don't add details into the truth but do for a lie as a misleading tactic.

Ok...now I've got to come up with 3 things about me:

1. I have two cute little kittens that love to sit on my keyboard when I try to play game. Those darn rascals!

2. I work as a detective in a police department.

3. I've been in a relationship for 17 years but am not married.

I bought the lifer subscription for this game shortly after it was released. The F2P system didn't affect me at all. Of course you had people complaining that the F2P players were going to just buy all the skills that players before had to earn in the game. I didn't really care to be honest with you.

I actually created a F2P account just to see what it is like. You can get everything for free since you earn points to use in the store by accomplishing in-game objectives.

I love this series and have to agree that Societies was a huge let down. I still do break out SimCity 4 every now and then and play it. I'll be getting this when it comes out.

It looks like this new release will focus on limited resources and effects of making decisions.


I volunteer every year for the FutureCity competition for middle school aged kids. It's a competition where the kids write essays about their made-up city, their vision and concept for it, and they actually simulate it using SimCity, which actually counts toward their team scores. Every year they have a theme, usually focusing on a limited resource or emphasizing a specific aspect of life that is/will be important going forward. For example, in recent years they have focused on water usage and biotechnology. Hopefully they'll upgrade which version of SimCity they use so I can play with that one when I'm helping mentor their teams. :)

Can't believe the lieutenant died for no reason then. And I really wanted to see what was in the Badlands. I really hope someone else picks it up even if it is a different station. Or, maybe it just goes off the air for a year before coming right back.

We should hold a wake for it. RIP Terra Nova. (grabs a photon torpedo casing and drops in a DVD of the show...launches to Genesis planet in the hopes of a rebirth like Spock).

Re: Terra Nova

Terra Nova had a great premise, but just like V reimagined, it fell short for essentially the same reason. It took far too long for the story to get anywhere.

Yeah, suspense is good, but dont drag the audience through lots of filler episodes where little of anything really happens.

It happens alot, weirdly to other shows. BSG was refreshing different in this regard though because they focused more on episodic content, rather than huge story arcs. The latter of which is always risky in TV.

I did a little searching around and found these images that were originally leaked by the Germany magazine GameCorner. It looks like this new release will focus on limited resources and effects of making decisions.

1. I was in the Musical Theater program at Ithaca College (one of the toughest Musical Theater programs in the country - Not THE toughest but it's up there only taking about 50-70 students into the program every year)
2. I believe in reincarnation and past lives.
3. I love singing but have a strong aversion to actually performing around other people.

OH! Forgot my guesses!

Woobies - I call a lie on the Cat named Neville!
Nick - I'm thinking it's that you live in Kentucky!
Eurrsk - Maybe the obsession with aliens.

Because fringe is aimed at... A larger, lower, more common denominator than Terra Nova. I used to like fringe quite a lot, but the plots became too transparent and the characters too inconsistent within themselves, so I dropped it like a bad habit.

Totally. I watched the first couple seasons before realizing this "Sci-fi" show had no basis in reality and was either some form of fantasy or writers who assumed the authors actually knew anything about science.

1. I'm originally from Chicago, but live in Kentucky.
2. My pinkies on both my hands are missing part of my knuckle, making them bend at a 45o angle.
3. I lead an online gaming community. :P
