| That's a perfect case study in why Team Dynamics is so critically important. Every member has to be a team player who can get along, because it only takes one jerk to ruin everything. |

Today Jim Rome was praising the Spurs saying how it's great to see the good guys win again. He said that their knucklehead factor was about zero.  |

| I'm not a fan of the NBA, but I have a lot of respect for the Spurs. They're totally a class act, and now they're currently the winningest team in any major U.S. sport (4 titles in last decade). Congrats! |

There are lots of obstacles that Obsidian put up and need to be overcome with the custom races. Things like we can't just slap on a custom skill affinity or bonus feat. But other things have been released.

| BF2 is prettier than JO, but JO is still a much better game. The gameplay is so smooth and plain fun that I ignore the few graphics glitches. How's ARMA's gameplay and controls? |

| None of the A1 guilds will be in A2, and since it's another part of the continent and 1500 years later they probably won't be known to anyone except the very rare and most esoteric of Vorinites. The mage orders are also a thing of the past as replaced by the Indigo Phoenix Society. |

They don't have to pass anything. They just let the ban lapse and local/state governments can begin taxing. |
