Haven't you been paying attention? This is a thread about the Gilmore Girls articles Schild gets paid for.


The thread about community management is the "Director's Cut" one in this forum, and the one in the news forum is about the Lum interview (but is now about Project Management).

So the ultimate question is: Lorelei or Rory?



And the obvious answer:  Yes.

This.

And congrats on the job.


Wow, I think I've covered the entire essential truth of this thread in this one post - you may now return to your business.

None of the RMT (Runescape, MapleStory, that penguin one and DungeonQuest) games have kept my daughter's attention beyond a week or two.   The only reason she ever logs in to one nowadays is if her mom and I are already playing on WoW together, so she can't login on one of our accounts.  Even at nearly 10 the production values aren't enough to capture her attention.  She prefers Wow because "it looks better" and "It's more fun."    I haven't had her try Dungeon Runners yet, though, so we'll see how that goes.   Yeah, it's anecdotal but I find it noteworthy that her attitude mirrors that of other, older gamers.

Buy your daughter a WoW account of her own and get your Wife a Zhevra in the process. Then the three of you can play WoW together.

edit - that should have been posted several pages ago. If I'd have been reading this thread at the time.

Also, more pics of Jessica Alba please.

God I hated Atma, just because every step on that damn flying island was another random encounter. It was like FF4 all over again.

First time I played ff6, I just ran every single encounter on that fucking island.  Then when I got to atma weapon, I beat it only by a fluke on my 10th try.  Then, I was too gimp to do whatever was after that.

Second time, I spent the hour getting through it, and the rest of the game was way too easy.

good times.
