    But we see hormones at work in many episodes. How would that work without the hardware? And the Cake twins....

    Hey, for all we know, it could be magic. After all, the word "pregnant" was never used in the show, as far as I can tell - even in The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows, they only used the phrase "having a baby". Plus, have we have had any visual indications of pregnancy so far?

  2. Well, maybe? I mean, here's the thing - he is a huge success, the man is pretty much a legend, and a lot of actors who reach that point start taking on roles based on what they want to do, rather than what the paycheck is for - at least, assuming he's not a complete disaster with money. I mean heck, they got the Shat for the Perfect Pear, why not Danny?

    Also, I changed my mind. I want to see him playing Cranky's grumpy brother.

    I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in a thread based on Starbound. For those who aren't familiar with the game, it's a 2D spacey sandbox with a bunch of different species and the PC plays what's essentially a space adventurer - you tool around from planet to planet, mining, fighting interesting wildlife, building settlements or just places for yourself, raiding ancient dungeons in order to take their furniture and so on. It's generally pretty casual and doesn't take itself excessively seriously, and that's the overall theme I have in mind. I do have some ideas to make the whole thing more accessible, though, and I'm also interested in everyone's take on it.

    1} It takes place five minutes into Equestrian future - a starship showed up, introduced the pony civilization to the cosmos, taught them how to build other spaceships and, using magic and industry, there's now the possibility for ponies, as well as other MLP species, to go into space. Overall, there wasn't much of a cultural upheaval caused by the first contact other than opening of new frontiers.

    2} There's no reason you have to play as a pony, obviously - you can be a dragon, hippogriff, yak, breezie or a buffalo if you wanted to, as well as any Starbound vanilla, modded or any other race, up to an including penguins, really. We're not really sticking to canon more than we have to here.

    3} Likewise, you don't even have to be the captain of a ship. You can play a crewmember, settler, stowaway, pirate - whatever suits your fancy.

    4} The RP takes place after the plot events of the main game - i.e. Earth has been destroyed and so has the Ruin. You might hear about these events, but they've come and gone.

    5} I might hijack some elements of the Frackin' Universe mod, especially in terms of the lore, as well as implementing bits of the pre-release lore - after all, it's a big universe and each of the races has multiple sides to it, and there's nothing to prove that either can be wrong - or right - in their interpretation of things. Plus, I'm thinking of implementing a bit of headcanon for various things as well.

    What do you think?

  4. Mixed bag, with its pros and cons

    Definite pros, no DRM, period. It has its platform if you wanna manage your games, but it's completely optional. Good selection of retro games, modified to run on modern rigs, fair selection of indie stuff as well, not so much for AAA stuff.

    Cons, no workshop style functionality for mods. Less active community, due to smaller customer size, but overall friendly anyway, as far as I've experienced.

    The quantity and level of sales are about even between the two.

    Personally, I try to get stuff on GoG if I can, and go with Steam if the game has a heavy modding community.

    That said, it's at this point that I'd like to bring mention to those of you not currently using your Poke'tars, and if you plan on reinstating your choice, or bowing out. If your name is listed below, then this question is to you - are you finished with the event?

    Uhwhupsie! There we go!

  6. I'm not confident about the actress, even with the hint. I know I've seen the shots that it references from, though. Still... need to throw my hat into the ring, so best guess is still a guess.
