I gotta say, both of those stunts were bloody brilliant!

And to think, origami can be a form of meditation...

They were meditating on the awesomeness that Mass effect could have been once uppon a time.

Oh hey looks like we got an underbridger sighting... O.O wow its been a long time since we've had one of them come around.

[Atrocity]

Nice to wake up, come here, and first thing I see is minty. I like to get the worst things over and done with as soon as possible, so I'll know the day has no choice but to get better

Hello again, Atrocity.

So I gotta ask, how're you holding up with all that end-of-term malarkey? :whistle:

Avoiding mostly. I have my Norton Anthology of English Literature vol 2 right here next to me, I just can't bring myself to open it. Because of mass effect 1 and multiplayer my Hemingway essay. And apparently there are dozens of uni parties coming up, but since I haven't bothered to attend a single party the whole year, why start now 

Especially when they are all "academic dinner parties", or in other words, drinking according to their own stupid etiquette, while dressed in an evening dress, instead of drinking and having casual fun. I can't remember there being more than one event of the latter kind during this whole year...

I just thought this was funny. I found it on Facebook:



EA is clearly aware of fan displeasure and I think it's disingenous of EA or Bioware to say that the amount of people unhappy with the ending are "in the minority." Were that true, I would think an advertisement like this wouldn't be necessary.

Edit Note:
This is not an ad for Mass Effect 3.

*Arches eyebrow.*

Is that for real?

*Is not amused*

The image is too obvious to be real, stating "No bad endings"; is not a phrase you choose given the current climate.

I'm not even kiding, this image is real. I couldn't believe it when I saw it myself.

Please refrain from posting images, instead you should post a link. This is to help keep the thread from getting cluttered with images, and also helps to keep this thread alive just that much longer. Thank you~!

Fixed, no more banned word!

err qestion why is a name of a nor mythological creature killable only with fire that tends to live under the bridges a banned word?

[Atrocity]

That's a facebook ad, right? They're hilariously bad
My facebook insists on auto-translating all ads into Finnish, even though my language setting is in English. Auto-translate + Finnish = unintended humour. The best part is when facebook insists on translating English words in links and addresses...

The forum rules forbid to call anyone an underdweller. It's considered abuse or something, though no one told the merry folk over at MP section that. I have no idea whether BSN has some bot mechanically screening words, but best to play safe and not to use that word at all.

Don't forget that it also has regenerative abilities~! As to why it's banned, I'm not quite sure, but maybe it's because its thrown around at just about anyone who "disagrees" with the current topic.... *shrugs* Honestly though, I've got no idea...

Calling someone an underdweller will most of the time be recognised as a personal attack against said user, and judging by the box at the top of the forums, is pretty serious nowadays.

Also, most underdwellers tend to try to be clever by not insulting anyone directly, which also puts them on the winning side if they decide to complain about being called a mythical creature.

Or maybe not.

Rule 3 and 7 got it covered http://social.biowar...page/site-rules albeit loosely, it's the risk factor that counts.

Huh? I'm a bit tired, but isn't that what i basically said? Or are you just adding references to my words? If the latter, then thanks. :happy:

Hmm, if my memory serves, according to Finnish mythos they are not monsters, but rather just semi-magical folk living inside hard rock, mountains (if we had any) and such. They tend to talk funny, borrow stuff and never return what they've borrowed. Some have tails, others don't.

But we have a different species of underdwellers, well, more like forestdwellers, which are malevolent, causing people to get lost, kidnapping people to slavery and general nastiness. They keep adders as pets and their queen causes many different diseases to humans, with the help of her three sons.

Kolme poikaa on pahalla
Rujo nuolia tekee
Rampa jousta jännittää
Ampuu perisokea

Three sons has the evil one
Disformed makes the arrows
Cripple draws the string 
And the blind one shoots

Sounds much better in Finnish, but Finnish poetry is a b.tch to translate, so I won't try 
And no, I have no idea why I remember this either.

Apparently people who don't like the ending of Mass Effect 3 and are providing reasoned, logical, literary and game-design criticism at the ending (henceforth known as "detractors"), are being forced to "debate" the merits of their argument with people who dispute their claims with the emotional argument of "artistic integrity" (henceforth known as "deus-ex(-machina)-fans").

Reports indicate that due to the lack of reasoned, logical, literary or game-design defence of the ending from the "deux-ex(-machina)-fans", that the "detractors" are becoming frustrated and calling the "deus-ex(-machina)-fans" the aformentioned mythical creature.

That action became a bannable offence on these forums because of ... "reasons".

Just like the Mass Effect 3 ending, no-one has been able to figure out a reasonable explanation for why this happened.

Yes, and as a lazy under-graduate majoring in a useless subject, I would never actually do what I'm paid for

I could have sworn that you already knew about that... Like everytime Toffee and Chmarr are on, one of them happens to mention coffee and I'm always like "gimme root beer"
