The penguins are 1:5 to win the Stanley cup.

this is great news.

Ew, a Penguins fan? There are too many people who are Penguins, Capitals, Bruins, Blackhawks and Flyers fans that don't even live in those cities. The Eastern conference is overrated...!

Also, good luck with the goal-tending you guys have. I think Lundqvist is way better than Fleury.

I like everything except for the walls and flooring. The walls could have been a bit more interesting, such as more colors and a painting or two in some rooms. The floor seems to be all grey and boring. Different color flooring and maybe a rug would do. You should try a small section of multicolored wood flooring in the kitchen area, I think that would look great.

It's about time. I can't wait until the first game. Hopefully, they will start by the 15th...? The whole lockout was stupid anyways. The owners wouldn't pay the players the amount in the contracts they wrote and signed. I'm still glad there will be half a season, though. Also, it won't be the same for the team who wins the cup since it's only half a season. Either way, go Blues!

actually everything would be made out of beer cans

You're thinking of football or NASCAR.

Help / Re: Graphics Card for Blockland

« on: January 07, 2013, 08:15:27 PM »

you can get something decent for $500-600, but don't expect to run shaders on max with 100k bricks without your computer begging you to murder it

(depending on what resolution you play at, there are a lot of factors)

Here are more details:
>I don't play on fullscreen
>I am fine with running shaders on max up to and including about 30k bricks. I hardly go to servers with more than 20k bricks anyways, and if I were to (with a good computer) I could just put my shaders setting to low or even medium (if that would help the speed)

So, for these specifications, what would you suggest I get (desktop gaming computer)? Remember:  just for Blockland, shaders with no lag up to 30k bricks and not in fullscreen or with any other special stuff.

not unless you want to pay upwards of ~1500 dollars, even then desktops are better

LOL. good luck with that. for that price you could maybe play with shaders on medium at best. you will barely get a decent computer for that price.

Are desktop gaming computers, with the tower, cheaper than laptops? And remember, this computer will seriously be used for Blockland about 90% of the time and people keep telling me that I can get a gaming computer for around my price that runs Blockland really well.

Bump.

Now that I have the money (about 530$) and my brother is willing to pitch in a little for a new computer, what kind do you suggest that would be best for Blockland for around 550$ - 650$?

Preferences:
>Laptop (are there any good gaming laptops?)
>Around 550$ - 650$
*>Can run shaders on max without lag
*>Can view a large amount of bricks without lag
(Starred must be possible)

Please post links to your suggestions so I can see prices and other details.

I think he was implying you only listen to 10 different artists.

Well, there are 36 artists just on my iTunes, but I listen to many others that I haven't bought/dug up from our collection of CDs yet.

change "songs" to "artists" and he was spot on.

I don't know what you're trying to say here. That I listen to 648 different artists?
 

your musical tastes seem incredibly boring

That's your opinion. I think the same of you.

who only listens to one genre of music.

I don't know, but when you find someone that does, please tell me because I would like to meet him/her.

Have fun listening to the same 10 songs for the rest of your life

This is barely scratching the surface. My god this is nothing. This is only 1.6 days worth of music. If I had all the music I could get, it would take me at least 2 months to listen to it all.

Also, your post implies that you depend on new songs to keep you from getting bored of the music you listen to. The songs that come out each day must not be good enough for you. I can understand this.

To me, classic music doesn't get old. Some songs sound better the more I listen to them. And yes, I will have fun listening to my 648* and growing songs. Thank you.

That is extremely subjective and misinformed. There are millions of songs that are well made and the amount of well-made music has not changed in the last 50 years. The events that happened in the last 5 decades did not change the amount of well made music.

I said "in general" today's music isn't "well-made" or I don't think it sounds any good. I agree that there have been tons of good songs made recently and I can't wait until those of later generations realize that those songs were great.

The only reason you think music from the 50's-80's was better was because either you have a different musical taste or because good music survives. For example, do you remember 'Rock Me Amadeus' by Falco? No. You don't. That's because no matter to popularity of the music at the time, if it's not good it doesn't survive.

I agree.

In 2030, the same reason 'Rock Me Amadeus' didn't survive past the 80's 'Never Say Never' by Justin Beiber won't survive past the 2010's. On the other hand, the same reason 'Killer Queen' by Queen survived the 80's 'Hey Johnny Park!' by Foo Fighters will survive the 2010's.

I agree and I do hope 'Never Say Never' dies before 2030.

you have no right to say that

Well it's my opinion, so actually I do have a right.

I also mean in general. I am not saying that all of today's music is bad, there is some stuff that I like.

Stop living in the past and get with de tiems mang

Your sentence very accurately compares classic music to modern music.

In the first part of your sentence, everything is spelled correctly and there are no grammatical errors. The first part of the sentence being well typed signifies how classic music was well-made. The accurate spelling makes it easy to read which signifies how classic music sounded good, similar to how the sentence sounds good when you can read it easily.

Like the last part of your sentence, music today isn't well-made. And the bad spelling at the end of the sentence makes it sound bad when you read it. This signifies how today's music sounds like a blender.

It was a tough riddle, but I figured it out. You thought you could sneak one past me. >=)
