Olive the other Jiberdeer

Been playing this since Saturday, but decided to re-start and 5-star every case. I know that you can just go into the cases and redo the ones that you messed up, but I find this more satisfying, oddly enough. I do have to say, undoing one of my favourite mistakes will be hard, though: I think I'll buy all the DLC tonight, that way it shows up at the proper times in the story's arc. This game is brilliant.

People go on Digg? I figured that was an urban legend.

Definitely agree on the major pass. I've finished many a fight while in rubber guard, attempting the gogoplata while waiting for my opponent to try and pass - which, succeed or fail, they seem to become vulnerable to submission attempts. I've managed to get fairly good at chokeholds (currently playing as a judoist, so he's naturally good at chokes anyhow), so that usually means the finish, provided I can get it locked in tight.

Got this the other day. Most fun I've had with a sports game in a long time. Finished my career as a HW today, going undefeated through to the end. My Lightweight fighter isn't having much luck. I decided to go to the league with the single 20-minute round, and I've been having a hell of a time, barely eking out victories in the dying minutes. My fighter has an enormous glass jaw and absolutely no stamina retention (the two places I'm obviously focusing my efforts at the moment), so that's the big issue. I just had back-to-back rematch fights that each went to the final minute. In the first one, I managed to catch a lucky break and start pounding out knee strikes in the thai clinch for the TKO victory. Second one ended a bit more on my terms with a step-up armbar. Read that the sequel for this game is not a matter of if, but when. Quite pleased with that; I'll even pay full price for that one. EA Sports have sold me on this one. (That said, when I went 40-0, I feel like a great section of the audience were saying "Yeah, that's all well and good, but how would he stack up in the UFC?" )

So, I've never really watched baseball, but after watching a couple of Braves games over the weekend with a buddy, I'm sort of hooked. Erm...any tips for a newbie fan?

I know I'm late to the party, but god do I love this game. I'm only a little ways into the missions, given that I keep getting distracted by gambling or hunting or generally dicking around. This is everything a sandbox should be

Smallville, Gents. I just started watching the first season. Tell me if I should continue.

I found the main story on Community fell a bit flat for me this week. It was still a solid episode (and excellent when placed up against any other television show I watch), but I found Abed's story more interesting this week. Maybe it's just that Annie-and-Jeff-centric episodes are my least favourite, with the exception of anything focussing on Shirley. Two weeks without Community may kill me, though.

Metric. Help me out here, folks - what're their best albums/songs?

Matzat would never write this well. I think you quoted the wrong post, so I decided to help you out.

Source. Eeeeek.

Justin Bieber got robbed.

From their label's website. Colour me unsurprised, but a bit sad.

22 bucks for a t-shirt? The hell is that? Seriously though, looks good to me, a person with no experience in or knowledge of the field.

Now she's pregnant with a baby girl. So the Doctor's daughter is inside the Doctor's daughter, who played the Doctor's daughter.

GoGo, you're quickly becoming simultaneously my favourite and least favourite poster, based on the fact that you post what I believe/am thinking before I believe/think it. Glee has the rest of the season to become interesting again, or I leave it forever. It's rapidly becoming this year's Heroes in my books.

Sousa, are you soliciting write-ups for the top 10? If so, I want in. I want iiiin.

Joe Banks, 82 years young, has come to this pond everyday for the past 17 years to feed the ducks. But last month Joe made a discovery: the ducks were gone. Some say the ducks went to Canada, others say Toronto. And some people think Joe used to sit down there near those ducks. But it could be that there's just no room, in this modern world, for an old man and his ducks.
