    This post has been subbed in to act as a new OP for the thread, to facilitate the changing of the thread name as we were doing.

    Sorry QB - your post wasnt an OP, so when it was first reply, i couldnt edit the thread title. Had to sub in another OP post to do so!

    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.

    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

    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.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭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


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭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!
