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).

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.

Getting to Know Each Other

March 15 2012
Part of building a strong community is getting to know each other. While we tend to spend a lot of time in game together, we don't always have the opportunity to share information about who we are with each other so I thought I would start a little game here that could help get things started. It's called two truths and a lie.

Here is how it goes. People post two facts about themselves that is true and one that is a lie and everyone else has to guess which one is the lie.

Posting instructions: Before posting, read the last post and guess which fact is the lie. When you post, first, post which fact you think is a lie and then post two facts about you that is true and one that is a lie. The next person will read your post and guess which is the lie and then post his or her own facts and so on.

Everytime I read the notes I seem to see something new.

Also, if you max out the affection with all your companions (per character), you'll gain +50 boost to Presence stat, 5-minute reduction on Heroic Moment ability, and a +1 minute addition to the duration of the Heroic Moment buff. There are also a bunch of unlockable social emotes such as /doublelasers (costs 150k and requires level 15 Legacy) or /weld (costs 50k and requires level 12 Legacy) and a total of 4 unarmed abilities, unlocked at different PVP Valor Ranks.

Thank goodness Kira loves me! (maxed out affection with her)

Also the part where you assign a title to your other char's..i.e. spouse, child etc etc. Dang now how do I figure out who is whom's partner?? ;P

As I've said before I think this patch is gonna be exciting
