Join up now! humanity is under attack by an alien menace. again. brave soldiers are needed who are willing to lay down their lives on the frontlines if need be. or to die by a stray shot from a brave team member that just happens to hit them in the back. or due to a poorly placed grenade. or...

hello, been trying to solve this little problem for some hours now. maybe one of you guys has a solution. I am trying to take screenshots of a game (UFO: Extraterrestrials from 2007) but the game only reacts to the print key by copying the onscreen data as a bmp to the clipboard and overwriting...

say, you are offered the opportunity to go to one spot for 2 hours, nevermind the security, nevermind the effects it will have on the world or you, today. you are not able to effect anything. you are just there and watch. right now. where do you go? me? I'd have a splendid breakfast at...

do you remember a time when it hasn't been? when was the last time your employer said to you "wow, we are having a ball over here, have some of it"? aren't we somehow allways in a recesssion or crisis?

not going to put the title of the show up there in the thread title because you might have candidates as well. for me, right now, it is The Good Guys. it is a cop show that is very reminiscent of the 80s/90s buddy movies with a very tongue-in-cheek attitude. the one thing that made me watch it...

clearly one of the most prominent fantasy/SF creatures around in the last decades and if anything they get ever more popular. for the purpose of this thread I'd like to stick to visual media. paintings, drawings, tv shows, movies. then again who am I to keep you from voting for a literature...

is UFO: Extraterrestrials (wiki link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFO:_Extraterrestrials) the combat is basically the same as in ye olde original. no idea yet as far the tech tree goes (for some reason I am missing something in order to reseearch Plasma weapons). load times are fast and you can...

as mentioned in another thread I have only recently been introduced to the awesomeness of The Doctor. took me a bit to watch most of seasons 1-4 by now (2005 and onwards) and I was wondering what you thought the best/scariest/most memorable "monsters" were. daleks, sure. cybermen, found them...

well shame on you for not having a thread on the greenlit series for HBO of A song of Ice and Fire. or shame on me for being blind, I had a sip of Arya's drink yesterday. anyhoo, one of the most stunning fantasy series (if not the most stunning one) is coming to HBO, the pilot has been shot, it...

in the Concours Eurovision de la Chanson... this is our entry for the Eurovision Song Contest and I, for one, am delighted about it. hope this video plays in your country and nevermind the ad that might show up...

well, somebody had to do it. first thing I have to say, and I am feeling less of a man as I type it, is that I love Sandra Bullock's dress. I'll go hide in a corner now. so pretty

little discussion today in the babe thread about what actually constitutes the denominer. for the basis of this discussion (fingers crossed) let us assume the german definition but let me start with an example: got your attention, right? most likely not a german gal but the tattoo fits like...

I detest them. loathe them. put a gun to my head and I'll still refuse to read them (English major here so I obviously need to read some, the one assignment I push back as far as I can and then get it over with in one go). all they are good for is to allow people who have a cute idea or who have...

kind of surprised that this little bit of fan fiction has not yet shown up on CFC. a movie made for around 25k pounds based on LoTR and it is actually very well done. sure, it has some moments where you cringe a bit but overall it is at least on par with a larger portion of commercial movies...

so are we done with the most prominent predictions? quick internet research did not reveal anything that gained popularity so far. what will the doomsayers do?

well, I deserved this. I am a mediocre Blood Bowl player when sobre. when intoxicated I am just about 5% awesome and 95% gutwrenchingly horible. for the sake of this LP I will have had some beers before going online (the AI is pretty dastardly and I played against it for too long which is...

translation in the spoiler Servus miteinander, Gangleri hatte die Idee das dieses Forum einen Thread für Leute brauchen könnte die Deutsch lernen oder lernen wollen. Wie schon der Thread "German help needed" zeigt gibt es ja den einen oder anderen Interessenten. Wer also ein wenig...

thought about adding a little "dun dun dun" to the threat title there, then passed on it. I am chicken, hear me roar! honestly, though, this has been bothering me a bit lately. historically men have held the power in this world (with some odd exceptions thrown in there for good measure), and...

and nobody could take the rights to do with them as you'd please away from you, what would you do? -sell them, assuming somebody will get filthy rich off of it it might as well be you, right? - give it away for free. statues erected in your honour, possibly a noble prize (?) in the works...
