  1. I think it is clear that the talking in the Night phase in Werewolves isn't actually to do with the game, it's out of character/game chat.

    On the whole, though, talking in the night phases shouldn't become a habit as a result of the Civilization game. Talking about the game at night was clearly a one off for that game. 

    With that said, if other game runners wanted to enable talking in night phases, then that's fair enough.

    Joe Hart in the dying minutes of Tottenham's crucial Carabao Cup third round tie v Rochdale:

     

    The sole highlight of Coventry City's end of season defeat against Watford in May 2010 was our goalkeeper, Kieren Westwood, getting so frustrated after conceding a 4th goal that he stormed out of his goal and repeatedly booted an advertising board. We agreed.

    Like I said before, I think Joy Division are a bit shit. Whereas, as (I hope) we will see, I really really really really like New Order. But Joy Division are a bit shit. Yet, this song is the exception. Love Will Tear Us Apart is a great great great great song and it's enough to justify Joy Division's legacy by itself. I wouldn't change anything about it. You can see how Joy Division had progressed, moving from their previous third-rate goth dithering to Love Will Tear Us Apart. In sound, in instrumentation, in atmosphere, this is already a New Order song. In every way except Curtis's vox of course, but IC gets it perfect this time and it is really sad he wasn't able to do more of this as the he and the band around him improved so much.

    Joy Division are one of my favourite bands, so, yeah, VOTE: Metalman

    Bear in mind that the producer of their two studio albums, Martin Hannett, tinkered with their sound so much, especially on their debut, Unknown Pleasures, that although great, it doesn't reflect the band's "sheet metal roar" that was their live shows and Peter Hook has said they weren't happy with it. With that said, I will agree about their progression.

    Ian Curtis was going through a lot of turmoil- he married far too young, he was the singer of a burgeoning rock band but was suffering with epilepsy and it was starting to badly affect him and the band, and he entered into an affair of sorts. It's a powerful song which resonates today.

    The picture of Bello is him playing for Paget Rangers- I'd been involved with them since they were reformed and, in 2016, I started doing the PA (Tannoy Tom 😀), so I've actually announced several of his goals!

    What’s the issue with it?

    Also, another season at St Andrews for Coventry. Lol.

    Double post, but I'm not too sad about this. At least I don't have to travel ages to watch Championship football... and we might get some tasty games! 

  6. So, this is going to be an interesting list...

    1. Tekken 2- I first got into video games playing with my best friend who lived across the road. Just a terrific fighting game, with a lot of variety. 

    2. Destruction Derby 2- this was one of the first games I played on my own Playstation.

    3. WWF Attitude- playing this probably helped me get into wrestling.

    4. GTA Vice City- I've played every GTA, but this was the first open world GTA I played, and I spent many hours in that game world.

    5. Pro Evolution Soccer- I'd obviously played FIFA 99 a lot, but PES was so different at that time- and superior!
