I'll run the league, though it will be hard with my hectic work schedule. We'll just run it in-thread and not use Yahoo or ESPN, so it'll be more accessible.

Here's some guidelines off the top of my head:

1. PM me your pick by NOON ET on Sunday. Obviously if you wanna pick the Thursday night game, have that pick in before that game starts. 

2. PM me if you wanna change your pick, but don't get crazy with it and change it 5 times a week. If so, I'll have to bring the hammer down.

3. I'll make a spreadsheet showing the picks, but it'll be locked so some dumbfuck doesn't screw it up like before.

4. You can only pick each team once.

 
The real money is (or at least used to be) in syndication (reruns outside of primetime by the local network affiliates, on cable channels, etc.). So much like the review sites evaluating Airscape for if it has the potential to breakout before deciding to review it, a TV network is evaluating whether a show has the potential to sustain itself over the 4-5 years needed to get to 88-100 episodes for syndication. If it doesn't, then it's best to cut your losses early before you get too heavily invested and move on to a new product as revenue from commercials during airing just makes it break even unless it gets big ratings.

With the rise of streaming I imagine that may change as a self-contained 1-3 season might be just as valuable per dollar spent as 5+ year long shows. With the rise of the ability to purchase complete seasons on discs or online (plus easy piracy), this seems to also have hurt the value of syndication. Fans of the show which used to catch reruns of the program now have the ability to watch whenever they want and without commercials. There is a time where shows like Scrubs and Smallville were ubiquitous in syndication, but now 4-5 years after they've been off the air in primetime you can barely find them anywhere.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;birth 1 is ridiculously fun, but I'm really looking forward to a bigger hit box. Right now I'm spending too much time trying to get the tiny box positioned perfectly for multiple enemy attacks. When I'm moving around it seems to catch multiple enemies easily, but as soon as I try to stop in the right spot I can only get 1 most of the time. :wall:

Different weapons have different size hit boxes. I remember having the same problem with trying to line up multiple characters.

 
I got 100% in Titan Attacks on Vita. It was easy. I guess all you cool trophy dudes know that already.

Yeah so we cant get rid of the dlc to get hardline out of the library?

Yeah I figured you could change the front to allow more or less games to show, but I dont want more. I want something I can go to and sort. It shouldnt be that hard for fucks sake. At least the library is in alphabetical order by default. So that helps.
Click to expand...
yeah at least on ps3 you could make your own folders and sort them different ways

 
Maybe the only thing I'd pick up from this sale is Jeanne D'Arc.

But, it has no trophies, and I doubt I'd even get around to it.

Hell, i bought Trails in the Sky from a flash sale months ago and haven't installed it yet.

My Dunderbak selection for later.  All rated in the 90s on beeradvocate.  All look like my type of beer.

I thought I was pretty clear that I was referring to getting older and lowering your standards. Younger women (not kids) all start looking more attractive than the same girl would have looked to you as a 20 year old.

When I was a teen I was only interested in goth/emo/raver chix. Yeah you get older and you become alot more accepting of different forms of beauty

That scene is hilarious. I really liked that movie except for the
overly sentimental mushy ending. Yuck. #SoullessRobot Also I thought we had American Beauty Part 2 on our hands with that one babysitter that likes Steve Carrell

This is why Tyler made a site reviewing video games, not movies. Every movie review would be the exact same.

"There were some laughs, but I did not enjoy when the humans exhibited emotions. 1/5 Robo-Diamonds."

Yeah, that mission was kind of a pain.
The time I beat it, one of the other cars somehow managed to immediately got in front of the main car and kept it going slowly the whole time so I was able to blow it up without worrying too much about the driving stuff.

So for all you Mad Max players, have you been clearing out all of the salvage spots on the map as you go? I don't know if I'm going to be able to get every last spot on the map. It's just way too much.

Yeah, if I see a salvage spot near me on the map or one pops up while I'm driving towards something else, I'll clear it out.

If you started with Vitus, you might not drink anything else. I love that beer. Those other 2 are not slouches though.

Cool. I will try at least two of them. I may not get the Esibock since it is 9% and the other two are about 6%. I probably dont need to get too drunk but we will see.

Well Gamefly didn't send me Until Dawn, but they did send me Tearaway on its first day shipping, so I guess that counts for something.  Since I have another on the way back, hopefully Until Dawn will follow behind it soon.

 
Alright, downloaded xeodrifter to the ol vita after reading all you guys playing it. Let's hope for a slow night at work so I can give it a shot.

I'm likely doing the same. I'll play it for a few days probably then flip it till the GOTY hits, plenty of other stuff to keep me busy. I have the Pip Boy edition ordered and already have someone lined up for the Pip while I keep the steelbook.

Opinions and stuff, but Jeanne d'Arc is the better of the two.

I think this will interest the JRPG fans in here: http://gematsu.com/2015/09/legend-heroes-trails-cold-steel-lionheart-edition-announced

No release date yet, but at only $10 more than just the game, I'm definitely getting that.

Liked for Scooby Doo.

 
My work bathroom always seems to have puddles under each urinal.  Granted we have a lot of blind people on my floor, but still.  I hope it's just sweaty/leaky pipes and urinals, but I doubt it.

Yeah, this happens everywhere. Plus there's always piss on toilet seats in shared bathrooms--how can somebody be so stupid they don't know to raise the seat when taking a piss while still be smart enough to make it through a doorway? I don't get it.

 
If anyone is looking for a Qualcomm compatible quick charger Groupon has the one that comes with the Droid Turbo.  I am 99% sure it charged my OG Vita when I tried it (using a spare USB to funky vita cable).  I can double check later if anyone cares.

$9.99 refurbished.  $14.99 new.  I grabbed a refurbished one and will leave it here at work along with the spare vita cable I have.

None of the USB chargers we have here will charge the vita and they trickle charge (ok a bit more then that) my Turbo.

I'm not sure if I should buy Unity now (to play it years from now when I'm finally caught up on AC), wait for a potential $9.99 price on Black Friday, or just skip it altogether since I'm not a big fan of the co-op focus.

It would be nothing short of a miracle if he could get a plat out of that game.

There's no plat, the presskit for the game just says there are 12 trophies.

And he is from Wisconsin, according to Twitter. Ya know, cuz half of fucking CAG is apparently from there.

I grabbed that box of old Nintendo boxes I have back at my parents yesterday. I'm going to start looking for some of the cartridges for cheap, and try to flip them complete. I was just looking at conkers bad fur day on ebay, and wow if I can find just a cartridge of that to go with my complete box, it sells for Hella money.
