    Arrow New Gods & Kings screenshot posted

    Amidst all the enthusiastic discussions regarding things such as the infamous Huns and speculations on other things revealed within GK screenshots, such as the mysterious penicillin unit and visions of sea turtles dancing in the water, I wanted to show you this new one that's out.

    There's no denying what this shows; it confirms new leaders for some existing civs!! I assume they're supplementary. This leader scene shown is for England! Perhaps the new spy trait applies to this guy and not Elizabeth?

    Who else do you think we're going to see? Honest Abe? Mao? Hatshepsut?

    Gotcha.

    HarHar - that's not fair. I was so excited... didn't expect a joke like this one from a supreme member.

    Never gonna send you spies, never gonna nuke your guys, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.

    Seriously, that was hilarious.

    I like it!


    Sorry to disappoint, guys. Just a little humor to lighten things up as we painfully wait for the expansion.

    Here's a question that popped into my head whilst showering this morning...

    If the wife of a male US president is called "the first lady"...
    what would the husband of a future female US president be called? "the first man"? "the first lord"? or something else?

    I disagree. Even when I'm the target of one, it usually gives me a chuckle.

    If it's the video, I usually hesitate closing it and find myself listening to some of it (I can't help it; it's catchy!). Sometimes I even do the Astley shuffle in my chair to the music.

    That's what at least one fictional depiction went with, after a little while of him being called the First Lady out of habit.

    First boytoy.

    I got in sooooooooooooooooo much ☺☺☺☺ when I did that on the SWTOR forums. they took away the developer tag from my forum name was worth every bit of the ten dollar bet my friend made.

    Being rick rolled always makes me laugh, its just too good.

    Why? Hint: it has two letters in it that are worth three points or more in scrabble.

    And I technically don't use my real name, as I gave it up when I claimed immigrant status. Former name being Shiav Zaied, thus Shiav being my internet handle. Unless my son steals it, as he is proud of his "super spy" dad. A fact I never let him forget despite having a menial desk job pushing papers.

  17. Ah...I just meant, what was the name you used as a Bioware Dev.

    Edmonton_Avery. Post since deleted, I went searching for the link Ah well. This was before the actual TOR site, when it was just a small sub section of Bioware Home's forum in '08

    Though if you want to see my various trollings of the forum (actually mostly mine, I think Sorin contributed handedly too) then search for "Shiav"

    Had a great quiz that was about various puns and common misperceptions and nuance in language. "The Ultimate Test" I believe. Also deleted, they cleaned the forum out after launch.

  19. No I mean in real life. Your name in real life that would be in the credits of SWTOR.

    Man, every time i see this headline, I think there's been ACTUAL new screenshots and then I see the 1-star rating. We gotta bury this stuff.
