Hey! Flash Dungeon Keeper! Cool!! :D

Yeah, but you don't get to slap your imps.

Man, if any game needs another sequel, it's Dungeon Keeper. Damn Bullfrog getting dissolved.

synabetic September 4 2008, 05:27:28 UTC

True; this game is incredibly simple... Sigh.

Now why did you have to go and say that? I'll probbaly cry myself to sleep now.

Actually, better yet, I'll dig up my Dungeon Keeper 1 & 2 discs and take 'em out for a spin. It's been years since I've played. I sure wish a sequel would be made...

Overlord was kinda like DK in spirit, but it wasn't nearly as fun.

Wasn't there a kind of sequel where you killed secret agents instead of adventurers? I don't think it got very far, popularity-wise, but it seemed to be the same concept.

IESB.net needs to be punished for their lack of diligence when it comes to updating their Full Frontal Nerdity pages. Grrr.

ps238principal September 4 2008, 07:34:07 UTC

Was last week's there?

frustratedpilot September 4 2008, 19:22:06 UTC

The last strip they had was the Remakes one posted on August 20th.

I've seen patterns for a knitted Cthulhu, but never a crocheted one!

ps238principal September 4 2008, 07:35:13 UTC

And this one moved! At 10 bucks each, I think they lasted maybe a day and a half.

I wonder if there's a market for "Necronomicon Cozies?"

wntrrvn September 4 2008, 13:05:08 UTC

For those of you that knit and have no need for a firm grip on sanity.

The pattern is about the middle of the page.

Mines orange. :)

I'd be torn: Black, shiny eyes or something more disturbingly "toy-ish," like those "googly" eyes they sell at craft stores?

I hate you.

When you see something like the John McCain in Kingdom Come thing, you're not supposed to infect others with that. You're supposed to quarantine that knowledge.

This election is already eating my brain, I'm not sure I can take much more weirdness.

Re: Aaron... ps238principal September 4 2008, 07:34:34 UTC

It'd be even stranger if Obama looked more like Jon Stewart. :)

Re: Aaron... codeguyj September 4 2008, 13:47:30 UTC

I've already got a hero association with Jon Stewart. If I ever got famous enough to go on the Daily Show, I'd start off by handing him a Green Lantern: John Stewart action figure.

Hey! I was the one with the husband in the Stargate uniform (and later in a top hat and carrying a glowy blue death ray). Just wanted to drop a note to say how nice it was to run into you. You were incredibly friendly and gracious to us, your random customers, and chatting with you was definitely one of the highlights of the con for us. I hope you come back next year!

ps238principal September 4 2008, 18:19:52 UTC

Thanks! And pass on further congrats to your husband on his steampunk rifle! The glowy bits were really well-done. I hope to use what he told me about LEDs to try out a few projects of my own.

And I hope he gets a replacement dremel soon. :)

Hi. I'm the husband with the gun. That site was http://www.ledsupply.com. By the way, what was the site you mentioned with the sound boards and other effects?

ps238principal September 5 2008, 05:17:41 UTC

I think that was this one: http://www.sciplus.com/

I'm not sure about sound effects, but they've got motors, lights, and just a load of really cool stuff to browse through. They might even have some plasma balls; those would look pretty spiffy on the end of a death-ray, I think.
