Re: Discussion: Future of Alvis in SWTOR
I said so in the chat, but I want to reiterate that Joun (and Furiel and Bul) are to be commended for acknowledging there's been a change of late, it's much better and healthier to have a discussion than to just ignore the issue. It's another reason I have crazy respect for this guild. As mentioned ...

Re: Pacific Rim
More exciting footage before the opening title than most other movies manage in their entirety, and it only got better from there. Some flaws, to be sure, and a few goofy characters, but if I'd seen Pacific Rim when I was 11 my room would have been swarming with Jaeger toys. Gonna go see it again in...

Re: Car stuff
Very clean indeed! I do love me some dark alloys on a silver car. It's not in my collection anymore, but my Volvo 740 Turbo boostbox looked a heck of a lot cooler after I sprayed the center of the wheels with Rustoleum hammer-finish anthracite. http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/media/img/readerrides/...

Re: Car stuff
Not sure if anyone has done this with a Prius, but a few folks realized that if you tore out the batteries from a Honda Insight (first-gen, their Hybrid from about a decade ago) and swapped in a hot race engine for the fuel-efficient one you had a very light, very aerodynamic drag toy. This Insight ...

Log in for the good of Alvis!
Even if you're not playing much these days, do us a favor and log in real quick. They've got a new perk that gives more XP based on the number of Guildies who have logged in recently. Also, it's a good time to get sucked back in if you haven't check out 2.0 stuff (even if you don't have 2.0, you can...

Re: Looks like Sony gets my money first...
Both do Blu-Ray, right? If my PS3 dies for any reason, not sure if I'd just get a cheapie BR player or one of those to replace. As far as games etc, I'll only be interested when they hit the $250 mark after a year or two.

Brew-Thru is a product name, like Kleenex, right? Use to be a thing to have a tye-dye shirt with the logo on it.

Re: OMFG...
So my wife is my book on tape; she loves reading out loud on road trips. She's really good at giving each character in a book a voice, but her mastery of accents is....comical. Some she's really good with, others, no way. We read "Reamde" recently and it had a character from Boston. The closest she ...

Just use your tablet to go to a website that uses flash and you'll feel better.
Which one did you get? My wife got a Nexus 7 for xmas and it's pretty freaking awesome, particularly for the money. Battery lasts FOREVAH.

Re: Dyno Massacre (from News)
Yeah, they all have a maximum speed rating which I'm sure gets ignored most of the time because people want to do their pulls in the 1:1 gear, which on a Corvette would get you something like 160mph I bet. And the portable dynos always strike me a bit sketchy compared to the stationary ones; that af...

Re: Dyno Massacre (from News)
Short aside: I was in a room once with a Toyota Supra on a dyno that was making about 950 wheel horsepower. Once the turbos got going I really wanted to get OUT of the room. That much power shouldn't be boxed up with squishy humans nearby!

Yeah, you hate to see that kind of thing. Honestly they're lucky nobody got injured, the dyno drum got trapped by luck, it should never have escaped its cage. That thing could have killed several folks before losing energy if it had gotten away at that speed, they weigh a LOT and if it was spinning ...

Re: SS build
Before 2.0 Crit was pretty easy to get; Skig had 40 percent crit chance and more than 75 surge without even trying that much. The same gear gave me about 30 percent crit chance in 2.0, and removing it all didn't hurt that much. I think I'm close to 25 percent crit chance with nearly nothing in Crit,...
