Hearthspoils!

Just a thread for anyone playing some Hearthstone who wants to share Battletag IDs for spectating or whatever. :)

Okay, so, I want to commission something from Men at Arms, and there are books that have parts claimed past that, but as far as I can tell the official split document only goes up to the end of Guards! Guards! so I'm kind of confused? Are the splits sitting somewhere else calling to me and I just can't hear them?

Fall Anime Wrap-up and Winter Anime Hype Thread



Against all odds (and my work schedule) things have finally calmed down some in my neck of the woods, and I can get back to doing these posts proper. Gotta say I missed not doing proper posts for the end of Summer, especially with how eventful so many of the finales were. But that's the past and now it's time to look towards the future! I'll be doing posts this week for Gugure! Kokkuri-san, When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace and Yuki Yuna The Hero through this week, but since most of the shows I'm following either end next week or continue on through next season, I'll mostly be using this to talk up and discuss upcoming winter titles.

As always, other discussion's always encouraged. Any anime you've tried out recently? Movies? Thoughts on upcoming shows or series past? Feel free to share!

I think I'll be taking a break from Cardcaptor Sakura and Rurouni Kenshin for a while now. My apologies.
I'm too preoccupied right now.

Miss_Crepsley has continued her journey into **MASS EFFECT**, but has not yet figured out her christmas-newyears schedule. So expect progress in real-time and spoils-time to differ.

She also has some questions to ask about DLC, Mass Effect 2, Origin and how to get them, for the love of all that is holy (or *cough* someplace else *cough* or even for free *cough* somehow *cough*). Because I swear I found a button with a buy option for specific dlcs once, but I cannot for the life of me find it again.

Sooo how's the Steam sale treating people? Thanks to an early Christmas gift I actually have some money to spend this year.

So far I bought Brothers a Tale of Two Sons which I'd been meaning to get to for ages. It was beautiful and surprisingly macabre in an traditional fairy tale kind of way, and punched me right in the feels at the end. Hella short though. I finished it in 3 hours. Still it was only two quid.

I also got The Longest Journey which I am about half way through and absolutely loving! If you like old school point n click adventures with awesome female protagonists get this game. And like Mark I'm pre-sold on anything featuring cnenyyry jbeyqf.

And now I'm playing Alien Isolation, God help me! I watched Kim and Hannah's Let's Play of it at Yogscast so I'm thoroughly spoiled but that's only made it worse! I just got to zrqvpny and I know the Alien hide and seek fun train I'm about to ride and it scares me! :)

Iamwinterborn plays Dark Souls



Bought it for super cheap, as a prelude to playing/buying Dark Souls 2 when the redone version comes out next year.

Then discovered the controls for PC were crap, so I bought a XBOX Controller for Windows, so I could play the game. So, yeah. Not really a deal, but oh well.

So, in the comments below are my tales of my progress at both learning how to use a controller (never owned a game system in my life, keyboards and hotkeys rule!), and dying. A lot. Repeatedly. Painfully. Embarrassingly.

Current Status:



Cause of Status: Larger Guy Took Very Large Sword and Thwacked Me Repeatedly Until I Tried To Run And Then He Was Faster And He Skewered Me.

Public service announcement!

Good Omens (by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, which Mark Read a while back) has been adapted for radio, and will be broadcast all this week. The first part is on at 11pm GMT (3pm Pacific Time, I believe) this evening, 22nd December on BBC Radio 4. You can stream BBC radio live anywhere in the world, or listen afterwards on the catch-up iPlayer, for a month afterwards.

Hello, Mark Spoils! This week's blog post is Christmas-related, and pretty spoiler free! Basically how musical adaptations of A Christmas Carol , such as The Muppet Christmas Carol and Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol choosing to make songs out of the same moments is significant. Full of fun song clips that will hopefully stir some warm childhood memories. Enjoy! http://wp.me/p5dL9u-6v
So I just commissioned Star Trek: First Contact.

Man it's going to be a long wait... I want it now. :)
