I dunno, I just bought Socom 2, and I really dont need a new shooter game. Any new RPGs out?

[-Listy-]

Hmm, i would ask Paranoidd lol, he seems to be the guy for RPG games, im just waiting for the new Final Fantasy to come out :amaze:

[Eitri Is Berserk]

I never really got into FF. Not much for RPG, unless they're MMORPG, but I'm cutting down on the time I spend in front of a screen playing games, just because it tends to consume all of your time. All of last summer I played AOC every day, don't wanna get into another one of those cycles.

[Bartender]

I dunno, I just bought Socom 2, and I really dont need a new shooter game. Any new RPGs out?

You don't need any new RPGs, you just need Fallout. Seriously, go buy Fallout 1 and 2, and they should keep you occupied for many moons.

[Kingofdudes]

What system are they on?

[Bartender]

PC.

Well, there was also a not very good FPS on Playstation, I think, but I wouldn't bother with that.

[SonorKen]

Alright, one night done, another night to go. Was a pretty cool show tho. I felt like I was in Slipknot when I played in my mask lastnight. Anyway, you guys be careful about clicking links tonight, some people are planning a spam attack. I won't be here so hopefully 3078675309 or Super will be in here helping out tonight. If no mods are in here go to the report problem users thread in Site and report it.

Anyway, I gotta start gettin ready for tonights show, later.......

[Bartender]

Good luck with the show :)

I would help out, but CD Reviews has never yet been targeted for any kind of serious attack..

Awesome. I remember my first Dead marathon. Watched them with a big group of people; me and a whole family I'm friends with - just the kids (7 of them), not the parents - ranging in age from about 9 to 19. Enjoy it.

How's Leeds?

[Bartender]

It's pretty good, thanks, though the university seems to be built on one big hill, with the place I'm living in at the bottom, and CD-wise, it's completely devoid of decent metal :(

Got a good gig coming up towards the end of November though (Dismember, Anata, Psycroptic and some band called Sanatorium).

Haha, when I was at Cornell, there was this ridiculous hill between the dining hall I was eating at and the dorms I was staying in, I hate big hills. I think all colleges are devoid of decent metal, it has something to do with rap being more popular and selling better. Check out the big CD shops off campus, they have a slightly better selection here at least. Lots of nice gigs come through here though, too bad I have no car :(

x_x that sucks

I did some research on Sanatorium. There a death metal band according to the Metal Observer.

I finally got a Triple XXX from Peavey, and with the combo of my Schecter C-1 XXX w/ the EMGs in it, I get a crunchy rhythm even on Crunch, and the ultra is perfect for Kreator and Testament.

To say the least, the cleans on the Triple XXX are much better than any other amp except a Fender (since Fender amps PWN other amp clean channels).

Overall, I'm borrowing this one as a token of apology from the dealer I ordered the head from since it is taking too long. I was going to ask if I can keep this combo in exchange instead of having to get the head and cab, in which I just found out according ot my dad would be overkil on our budget. I'm sure Rob would be nice enough to let us purchase this amp in place of the head, and he can keep the head on the floor for demo and display.

[Bartender]

zepfan - it's not just campus that has a lack of metal, I'm talking about the whole of Leeds. I've only found (and bought) one decently priced, worth-owning metal CD in my six weeks here, compared to thirty-odd non-metal CDs.

Ravenous - Good luck with all that :)

I'm going to bed though, it's 4:14am, and I do need to sleep sometime.

Strange..I went to a costume party last night..I was so wiped out when I got home. It was pretty cool though, a live band is always fun to watch. They had a **** good lead guitarist. I talked toe the bassist a bit, I'm jealous of his rig. It was kinda strange talking to him cause he was in costume..and his costume was a school girl. It was awkward, but he was a cool dude. They played a lot of older stuff, and did a good job with it, except you couldn't hear the rythm guitarist over the bassist and lead guitar. He didn't play half of the time, just did vocals mostly.

[Bartender]

well it was kinda strange...because i ended up making out with one of the girls right in front of my "girlfriend". it was so awkward cuz i didnt know what to say.

and i say "girlfriend" because we used to go out, but we would always break up over nothing, and we found if we just remain friends with benefits than we never argue about anything. so technically i can date other people, but im burning a very pleasurable bridge.

im going to bed...what am i doing up this late.

Man, listen to this ****. We played a show Friday night. Everything was killer, large crowd, all the music was right on, the load in went perfect, no sound issues, just a great show. We made an *** load of money too. Well, we have another show Saturday night. Same kinda build up, everything should be perfect again. Well, Saturday about 11 am (show starts at 8) our guitarists girlfriend calls my bass player and says that our guitarist quit the band.

Well, he didnt call us, didnt even try. We call him non-stop and he won't answer. He has done **** like this to other bands in the past, just decide to quit and not say anything to anyone, just quit showing up. Needless to say I was ****in furious. Well, he has had issues with his hearing and tinnitus. When we finally got in touch with him (we had to literally corner his vehicle to talk to him) he said he was quitting over the tinnitus thing.

The tinnitus thing is a good reason to leave the band, no doubt about it. I am pissed about the way he handled his exodus. If you play with people for as long as we have and you consider them friends the least you can do is talk to everyone. There is no doubt in my mind if his girlfriend hadnt called us we would have all been sitting there, in front of the crowd, waiting to start.

So, were looking for a guitarist, gonna start holding auditions soon. We have a TON to offer too so I guess we can be picky. Check out www.stagefrightband.com for the ad.

Anyway, if I seem bitchy thats the reason.......

Well, he has had issues with his hearing and tinnitus. When we finally got in touch with him (we had to literally corner his vehicle to talk to him) he said he was quitting over the tinnitus thing.

The tinnitus thing is a good reason to leave the band, no doubt about it. I am pissed about the way he handled his exodus. If you play with people for as long as we have and you consider them friends the least you can do is talk to everyone. There is no doubt in my mind if his girlfriend hadnt called us we would have all been sitting there, in front of the crowd, waiting to start.

So, were looking for a guitarist, gonna start holding auditions soon. We have a TON to offer too so I guess we can be picky. Check out www.stagefrightband.com for the ad.

Anyway, if I seem bitchy thats the reason.......

*hands Stagefrightken an ice tea*

I totally know how that feels man...

I just got back from my a friend of a friend's halloween party, and I'm like so frickin tired, but I was having so much fun. Smashed pumpkins, watched the Exorcist, played Halo, scared trick-or-treaters, went trick-or-treating with this girl I met at the party (just us two), and we headed back, got dessert, and I tried my hand at Halo.

I wish you the best of luck on finding a new guitarist. :thumb:

Man, listen to this ****. We played a show Friday night. Everything was killer, large crowd, all the music was right on, the load in went perfect, no sound issues, just a great show. We made an *** load of money too. Well, we have another show Saturday night. Same kinda build up, everything should be perfect again. Well, Saturday about 11 am (show starts at 8) our guitarists girlfriend calls my bass player and says that our guitarist quit the band.

Well, he didnt call us, didnt even try. We call him non-stop and he won't answer.

Wow dude, that totally sucks. I thought you were being a bit testy in the site forum. Now I totally get it, I feel bad now :upset: Best of luck finding a new guitarist...if I wasn't all the way across the US I would try out heh. I really hate it when people pull crap like that, I know how that goes. That's the best I can do for you dude, go beat up some homeless people or something, make sure you do something fun. Hope everythign works out :thumb:

[SonorKen]

hahaha thanks guys, its gonna be a pain in the ***. We cancelled everything for next month so we can audition and then work with whom we pick. The guy we had was phenominal, Im not kiddin when I say this, he is probably one of the best unfound guitar players. He has alot of personal issues that probably kept him from being discovered.

Its gonna be tough to find someone to replace him. The other tough thing is going to be weeding through all the people who want to audition, its going to be a mess...

Anyway, ya said you were playin Halo, man, I can't wait till the 9th. H2 is gonna rule. Some guys at work have been downloading it so I may actually get to play it tomm. I have a modded XBOX (which is the only way to go) so if they have it finished I'll be playin H2 tomm.. I'll post up some screen shots if I do.

[br3ad_man]

I feel bad. I like haven't seen a person in about 3 days :upset:. I've been quite sick with diahirrea, not nice. My Dad got me some tablets and I haven't been to the toilet in 6 hours :eek: w00t.

Anyways, can you add me to AIM and send me some Pigmy Love Circus and some songs from your band? I mean, you promised. :upset: :cool: :) :thumb: :wave: :naughty: :D

[SonorKen]

haha dude, I added you last week! I havent seen you on. Add me, SniffinLippy. Im at work and will be on all day up till about 4, then I gotta go to some guitar shops and hang up some signs!!

I guess I was kinda crappy in the site forum now that I look at it. Man, I just get so sick of all the kiddies on here tho. Anyway, it looks like this reward program for great users will prolly fly. I believe the way it will work is a mod from each part of the forum will nominate users in each part, looks like R&M will have alot of people rewarded since we have a ton of killer people here...

Greetings, everyone. Just finished another long, tiring day of university; a full two hours of work. What a hardship.

My day of class is over too...it's 11:40 here :p

Lots of hw though :(

[Bartender]

I've got nothing, work-wise, to do tonight. I have an essay in either for the 5th or the 11th, I'm not sure which, but otherwise, that's it. I hope it's the 11th.

[Permanent Solution]

I have tons of hw everynight...my teachers are mean :(

[Bartender]

I don't have any teachers per se, just lecturers. Three, to be specific, and they're all very cool.

On a different note, I don't suppose you know know much about the seraphim, do you?

[Permanent Solution]

Nope, in fact I will even go so far as to say I know nothing about it/them.

[Bartender]

The highest choir of angels, God's go-to guys.

Well if anyone can help me, I'd like to know how many of them there are. I can think of 5 - Gabriel, Lucifer, the Metatron, the Omnitron and Michael.

I'd also like to know which at which hand Lucifer and Gabriel each sat, as I can't remember which is which.

This might be a good starting point..."Catholic Dictionary"

(I am writing a paper tied to religion too :p)

[Bartender]

Ah, excellent, thanks. I'll probably end up spending rather a lot of time on that site.

[Riva]

As far as I know, Gabriel was the right, and Lucifer was the left. I think there are quite a few seraphim though.

And I have uni for four hours today. Oh no! The worst part is I have to stay around and try and do two assignments in 1 day. Lucky me. :rolleyes:

[Bartender]

Yeah, well I think there are supposed to be dozens, if not hundreds, of seraphim, but I was just wondering about the "important" ones. The ones with speaking roles, so to speak.

[evilmenhavenosongs]

I got detention for writing seraphim on my homework diary once. Stupid religious school.

[Bartender]

Why did that get you detention?

[Riva]

I'm interested in mythology, so I decided to check out some sites about the Seraphim, Bartender. A lot of them are pure religious nonsense, but a few of them have some usable data.

Metatron is the scribe or archivist of Heaven. He is the first angel to sit between the 6th and 7th level of Heaven. He is also said to be the greatest magician of the angels.
(He also has another 100 names that are meant to be him.)

Gabriel is the messenger of God. He is the voice who speaks to many of the people in the Bible, including informing Mary and Joseph of Mary's pregnancy.

Michael is the general of God's armies. He is the one credited with the destruction of the Assyrian army. He is also the angel of retribution. He is also the Angel of Sunday.

Raphael is the angel of Death. He is the one who brought down Sodom and Gomorrah (sp?)

Lucifer was the angel of Music, but was cast out of Heaven. His new name, Satan, is more of a job description. (Satan means adversary)

There are seven of them, but I can't remember the names of the top of my head, and I can't remember the sites I visited because they are all mixed up and I had to glean little bits of info from one and then a bit more from another.

All that stuff really reminds me of The Northern Lights trilogy...man I loved those books (still do). Those are some my favourite books, especially the final one in the trilogy.
Which books are those, I have never heard of them :(

[Riva]

Me neither. They sound interesting though.

[Bartender]

They're known together as the His Dark Materials trilogy, comprising Northern Lights, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass, by Philip Pullman. Very good books. I think they're making a film of them, too, which they'd better not mess up.

You do realize Kerry isn't that much better?



If Americans really wanted a true leader, then maybe they'd vote for someone who wasn't rich to begin with. Someone who wasn't pampered all his life, someone who actually suffered/suffers. Of course Nader isn't up to this quota, but he beats the hell out of any president we've had in the past 100 years.

That's cool, but really my biggest problem with Bush is his frequent and blatant mix of religion in government (ex: Gay marriage, abortion, stem-cell research, Iraq). I think Kerry will be much better policy wise about this. I feel Bush has no regard for our constitution in this regard, because he violates the first amendment like it doesn't exist.

I am Latino-American for the record.

As long as there is no single religion, there is no way for world unity. Basically, the only way for unity now is scientific proof of one religion, and mass extermination of everyone who was wrong, because few would willingly convert. That is my opinion.

Yeah, well all the sites I went to had conflicting reports. Some said Archangels and Seraphim were one and the same, others said that Gabriel was the highest ranked, other Michael.

Also, Judaism, Catholicism, Protestants, Islam etc all place the angels at different ranks.

Hey Paranoidd, I like the latest entry in the blog. The funniest thing I find about the World series is that it is played completely on U.S. soil by U.S. teams, and yet they call the winner the World Champions. Just shows how self-important America can be at times. :p

Well, not just that, I'd also been told that it was the Omnitron who was the scribe/archivist, and the Metatron who was the voice.

At least one site places Michael as Prince of the Seraphim (the highest choir), while at least one other places him, despite being God's general, etc, as a member of the last and lowest (9th) choir, simplay called "angels". An angel of the people, I suppose. Yet another has said that he's in fact not only the highest ranked of the Seraphim, but highest ranked of pretty much everyone, placed above more or less everything except God.

It's all really interesting, but really confusing at the same time.
