Not I. More of a console gamer. The only MMO I ever got into was FFXI.

I play Russian Roulette, money on the table.
Haven't lost yet.
Take my winnings and buy snus.

So with RR, if everybody puts their money on the table and 1 in 6 blow their brains out, does everyone else just divide the loser's stake by 5 and take their share?

20% extra to my pot doesn't really seem worth a bullet through the central cortex to me given the 17% risk of death....

Just my $0.02, but it doesn't look like great odds.

No you never seen that one episode of, well I forgot the show, but this is how they did it:


2 guys playing the game. Other people bet on which side will win, making a giant pot, payouts depending on odds of the one your bet on. If you win the round you go on to the next opponent, the odds get less in your favor the more rounds you go through.

Lots of money in it actually. It's like cock fighting, lots of people guessing which one will die first. Not that I think he is really playing Russian Roulette.

I love warcraft but my ex roomate looked like Cartman from the WOW southpark episode, after seeing that I decided not to play lol.

that's kind of a myth... most completely stupidly dedicated wow'ers i know are actually quite thin from missing meals due to raiding..

I got addicted to WOW for about 2 weeks. During those 2 weeks, I ignored my family, slacked on my homework and was a total bee-yotch from lack of sleep. I quit playing cold-turkey and my husband couldn't have been happier! BUT, during those 2 weeks, I loved the game, I have nothing against WOW. Just me and my blasted addictive personality! UGH!!!

Lol, yah he wasn't fat but definately had the the whole drone/slobber/stare thing going on and did nothing else but play it lol. I figured spending my time/money on crack would be less addictive lol. :twisted:


It looks awesome and I love Warcraft but my computer sucks. How much a month is it to play?

His setup was pretty crazy, not sure what the hardward was but the graphics looked pretty great for an MMORPG. My laptop can barely handle going on snuson nowadays lol. It'd be cool if they had it for xbox but kinda hard without the mouse.

[nathancipher]

used to play, never really got into it enough to make all the grinding worth it...think i got to like the mid 50s, pre expansions

[dEFinitionofEPIC]

started in November of this year:

Level 75 Pally - Ret/Prot
Level 47 hunter - BM
Uldum

...got pressured into it by my brother and some friends but i'm glad i did... its an epic game. im loving the new lfg...even on days when i don't feel like playing much its fun to just do my random dungeon for drops, xp, and emblems and then get off... i can see why it would be addictive but if you have a job and a life it really doesn't suck you in too much... i probly play an avg of 1 1/2 hrs/ day and on the weekends maybe a little more... def not cartman status
