One of my friends was convinced it was him. I hadn't a clue. He was down the back of the church and I was sent to see if I could figure it out.

I came back and said:
"Nah, that can't be him, they're calling him Stephen"

Nice guy.

O he is the wrestler dude ahhhhhhhhhh

My 6 degrees of separation to him has no science parts. He was in college with my friends husband, but I know her from when I lived in Cork. She came up to Dublin for a weekend, we went to a rugby match, got talking to a man there, 2 years later they're married. And HE is Shamus's friend, and it was at their wedding that I met him.

I've heard of that book. I'll put it on my list. I have (I think) 35 unread books on my kindle and 6 real books on my bedside table that I need to read before I can buy more books though. I employ a strict regime of "one real, one fake", whereby a real one can be science, autobiography, history... anything really once it's factual. And then a fake one like rom com or thriller or well anything except for science fiction or fantasy because I don't understand them.

Except Harry Potter. Love a bitta Harry.

Two teams can be good aswell IMO. Although I love reading all the behind the scenes chat after.

Discworld? love them books

quickbeam

That was a question I asked in the DR, but nobody really answered me* - how complex was WWIV in the scheme of things? A lot of us never played before Boards, so obviously it was the most complex yet, but compared with how complex it can get, was it still comparatively easy.

* Molly did answer, but only in relation to live games, rather than forum-based ones.

Two teams can be interesting if you have twists and roles. The shapeshifter role was great I found.

quickbeam

I do the same Sully, except I've hundreds on my to-read list (kept on GoodReads) and about 20 physically at home waiting to be read. Then there's a whole library of books near me too, so I borrow from there too. Too many books, too little time. I alternate between heavy (eg, The Idiot which I read this year) to light (eg, Lee Child's Jack Reacher books) and get about one non-fiction in for every 3-4 fiction. Love sci-fi and fantasy though. I'd read anything except chick-lit.

I'm guessing but Id say this was pretty complicated, Im still not sure id be able to explain it top someone

quickbeam

What movies? There are no Jack Reacher movies. Just like there are only three Indiana Jones movies. I defy somebody to tell me different!
