Tic-tac-toe is so overrated. How about some poker?

na, im in full time education, quite boring really.

on the topic of games, apart from chess and blackjack(card game) i cant say im good at any other games. but monopoly is far to long of a game. and the end results from poker usually aren’t pleasant.

and the end results from poker usually aren’t pleasant.

Thats why I perfer the "Strip" version, . Of course, im all for equality, so everyone playing has to strip,

The game I kick butt at the most is Checkers. But most people prefer playing Chess. I'm getting better at it, but it's not something I go out of my way to play a lot.

 

[rodnylee]

they're making a hobbit movie?!?! thats gonna be some crazzzy production values!

EDIT: quick question, do you get an auto ki for becoming a jr mem?

 

[Tamerlane]

Hobbits?

If they are making a Hobbit movie that would be awesome. o_o

Also about the Ki question I am not really sure.

 

[Gold Knight]

No.

LoL.

Speaking of movies, I'm more excited about the Ghost Rider movie. Looks like it'll have some wicked SFX. Check out the official site sometimes - http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/ghostrider/

Click on the motorcycle and watch Nick Cage's head half on fire XD

If there's a Hobbit movie in the making, be interested in that for sure, too.

 

[Tamerlane]

Looks like a awesome movie.

Though I have to admit that I am not familiar with the Ghost Rider comic series. ^_^;

But I would still go to see it.

There's been a bunch of different incarnations of Ghost Rider - the first version was about a stunt motorcycle rider named Johnny Blaze whose father (also a stuntman) crashed at a show and nearly died, and the son sold his soul to the Devil so that his father would live thru the accident. The father died anyway later as a result of cancer ( not part of the bargain ) and the son becomes the Devil's tool at night as a demon called Zarathos ( the Ghost Rider ). I forget exactly why, but the Devil wasn't totally able to get the son's whole soul, and Johnny could control the Ghost Rider's actions to some degree. Most of the time, though, it's very dangerous to be near that particular Ghost Rider. Eventually, Johnny Blaze was able to free himself from the Ghost Rider, though.

The second version of the Ghost Rider was often mistaken for the first Ghost Rider, but isn't the same guy. David Ketch and his sister went to a graveyard and got caught up in a mob war of a sort and they fled, and the sister was shot by an assassin. David found an old motorcycle with a strange, glowing symbol in a junkyard and was compelled to touch it, and became the Ghost Rider. This time the Ghost Rider was an avenging angel, often called himself the "Spirit of Vengeance" and he had a cool power to make any of his victims feel the pain they've caused to others with what he called the "Penance Stare." His background was totally different from Zarathos, but because of their similar appearance Zarathos' old enemies thought it was him a lot of times. Even Johnny Blaze himself came to fight the Ghost Rider.

There's been other versions, but personally the second version is my favorite Ghost Rider. But I think they're going to do the first version of the Ghost Rider, except with the look of the second Ghost Rider.

Either way it looks like it's gonna be cool. =)

 

[abdulahi]

thanx for the info GK.
but im with tamerlane on not being familiar with the series but its looks like a cool film, im now looking forward to it now.

 

[The Boff]

I always preferred checkers myself. ^^

 

[Tanuki-dono]

Tic-tac-toe  is so overrated. How about some poker?

Poker? I'm terrible at that game. The only games I ever really win are tic-tac-toe, checkers, and bingo. I'm pathetic.

 

[Miso]

Hmm...I cannot play one of these properly I think. I don't even know checkers and tic-tac-toe...

 

[Gold Knight]
