Civ is for a very particular kind of player, but if you are that type it seems to be like heroin.

It's not really for me. I can enjoy it well enough, but it's a little too slow.

When I was going through Basic, we had one guy that had gone through JROTC that was absolutely hilarious. He was standing at attention for our DI, and then he would move to parade rest every time he would say something to the DI, then move back to standing at attention. He did this at least 4 or 5 times while I was going through the line at the mess hall.

Yeah, if you've never played Civ before you need to do the tutorial. Also, they change stuff so much between the games it's a good idea to do it when you start a new one too. I played Civ 4 pretty heavily, but I still did the tutorial when I got Civ 5 because they changed so many things.

You guys can send me friends requests on Steam too. Username there is the same as here. And I already have like 7 or 10 Steam friends, so therefore I am more popular than Aeth!

I am the worst DOTA 2 player in the history of time. I'm pretty sure playing LoL has only made me worse, since the lane layouts are different, tower ranges are longer and (most importantly) creep AI doesn't work the same way.

That said...

"Submit to the Empire of Bone!"

All I know is you're somewhere west coast-ish in the states and that's good enough for me.

Skeleton King, eh?

There's a very useful guide for new players to Dota, called "Welcome to Dota, You Suck." Definitely worth a read.

And since you're playing SK, check out the CAPS LOCK LEORIC GUIDE. It's hilarious. And informative!

Feel free to hit me up with any questions you've got if you're wondering about something.

Yeah, I can understand that. Give the bot games a try if you haven't already, they can be a lot more forgiving for when you're just getting the hang of things.

Edit: and as far as junglers go, I'd recommend Lifestealer or Axe. The others usually require some micro, which might be a little overwhelming. Lifestealer is easy to play and straightforward, Axe is just manly as @#%^ and a ton of fun.

Civ4 was €20, Civ 3 €5 and since I'm not entirely sure that I'll like the game, this seemed a smarter thing to do

Close enough.

Because nobody ever says fuck in this thread.

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?!

I've been playing a lot of Civ 5.

Genghis Khan can go suck a bag of dicks.

Blame Diglett for that.

So much potty mouth here.

Dale Carnegie doesn't seem like he's ever been in a real leadership position.

I haven't got a @#%^ing clue what you're talking about.
I think I've got all the expansions though.

Always fun when you think you'll just wrap something up quickly and then what feels like 5 minutes later is actually 7 hours later and your sleep schedule is fubared.

Thank god for caffeine, right?

This is why I don't do things. Though I did shop today. And spent more money than I intended. Oops.

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Seriously, I hate people like that. The lead barista (our manager who isn't technically a manager) at work is almost worse though. While she is in charge and does do a lot, there's also a lot of things that she doesn't do. Yet she has this attitude that she is some great manager and does all the things and we'd be lost without her. It's really @#%^ing annoying. One of my biggest annoyances that she does is she orders too much of our products, and then doesn't face them properly in the stock room so we end up throwing stuff away because it expires. I hate waste. Like our sugar free syrups for example. Aside from the vanilla, we only go through about one bottle a month. Yet as soon as we bring a box down from the stock room, she orders a new one. Sometimes two... The boxes have four to six bottles in them, depending on the flavor, and if they don't get faced in the cabinet by the kiosk, they end up expiring and we have to throw them away. It doesn't directly cost me money, but it's the principle of the thing that bothers me.

Is that because you make them do pushups any time they think about complaining?
