They're probably not delaying it so they can implement anything but bug fixes, otherwise why would we get a month delay while Japan only gets a week delay?

Fuck!

Agreed 100%

Best Games:
Super Mario Galaxy
Rock Band
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (First time I played RE4, so while it was old to most people, it was new and fantastic to me)
Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings

Runner Up:
Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Worst Game:
I dunno...any Dragon Ball Z game?

Runner Up:
Guitar Hero 3 (They managed to suck every last bit of fun out of this franchise)

Biggest Let Down:
Halo 3 (With all the hype I was just expecting so much from this one, and it turned out to be just a little prettier than Halo 2  ​)

Runner Up:
God of War 2 (I think I'm the only person that thinks the first one is 100% better than this one...I beat the game in 9 hours and will probably never play it again)

I'm assuming you mean ration of Retransmitted to Sent.  Retransmitted is 180186, Sent is 18472372, so ratio is just under 1% (yes, technically not ratio...but it's late, and that's easier right now =P).

And, now that I know what MTU stands for...how do I change that to 1492? (sorry, not so good with the network stuffs)

*EDIT* Googled MTU after I posted this, and I think I got that changed correctly.

While I think allowing us to use any ROMs we may download on the VC is a stupid idea, I would LOVE if Nintendo released some sort of attachment (even if they charged on a per-use basis somehow) to allow us to rip actual carts we have lying around.  Of course, if they really do tweak each ROM they put on the VC (I've never seen anything that showed this to be true or false), then that clearly wouldn't work.

The only thing I see when I do netstat is 'Segments Retransmitted'.  Is that what you meant?  If so it's at 168549...I'm assuming that's a lot =P

And...I'm sorry, MTU?  Is that an acronym I know and am just forgetting?

As far as I know the port is open.  I followed the guide here: http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Dlink/DI-524/Utorrent.htm

So setting 'Protocol Encryption' to 'Enabled'?  And check the box next to 'Allow incoming legacy connections'?  'Cause those were both already set that way =P  Although I can do 'Forced' for the encryption.  Not sure if that'd make a difference or not, but I could try it.

And let me say, Chyld, for a 5 meg those numbers are horrific. You should call your ISP immediately and complain about not getting optimal speeds. Don't just be glad you're connected, you have broadband, and should be getting the speeds you are paying for.

Yeah, I know.  But unfortunately I have Charter as my ISP, and they suck horribly (especially in this area, where there's zero competition).  If I'm just downloading a regular file off the internet I get much higher speeds (still not the speeds I should be getting...but much higher), it's just on torrents that my speed is this horribly craptastic.

Team Healer item could be fun.  I don't often play with teams, but on the rare occasion I do I can see this being a very useful item...as long as I don't accidentally use it to heal an enemy.

While I respect the fact that you all want Christian Bale to do you in the ass (ewwwww =P), I really thought he sucked it up in Batman Begins.  I've seen him in some other stuff that he wasn't horrible in, but Batman wasn't one of them.  Everytime he tried to sound angry he just sounded constipated, and his bad acting was made even more apparent when put next to Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Cillian Murphy, Gary Oldman, & Morgan Freeman.

Guys.

One of the reasons the film media forum is pretty inactive MIGHT be because like 5 of you jump on some guy with FUCK OFF IF YOU DON'T LIKE BALE.

just a thought.

Oh, and this.

I'll rent this one when it comes out.  I WOULD go see it in the theater, but Marcus Theaters didn't want to pay as much as Paramount wanted for it, so it's not going to be showing here.  Jerks.

Right now I have upload limited to 5, download limited to 20, max connections set to 100.  If I set upload to 1/3 my max upload speed it'd be way too high, as, for some reason, the max speed I can ever get (even though I'm on a 5 meg connection) is 60-70k/s...and I (in theory) get much, much higher than that for upload speed.

I dunno...my connection has always sucked ass, but at least it stayed connected.

It's really too bad that Christian Bale is back as Batman though, as he can't act and he looks like a rubber monkey.  I hated Batman Begins, but I think about 85% of that was because of Bale....

I already updated the firmware for the router, but I haven't tried lowering the max connections for the torrents.  Good idea.

I AM able to reach the router at 192.168.0.1 when I lose the connection, which I thought was odd.  The router's still on, and wireless devices can still reach it...it just doesn't like sending a signal out through the wired connections.

*EDIT* I cut the max connections in half, and also am limiting the download speed to 20kB/s, which is horrendous, but 1) anything more and it wants to crap out on me, and 2) at least I'm still getting stuff, even if a single TV episode takes 4-6 hours to get :-\

For about 3 years now I've been using the same network setup in my apartment with (almost) no problems.  The only thing that goes wrong is about every 3 or 4 months the router (a D-Link 524) needs to be reset.  Pissed me off at first, but I've learned to deal with it.

About a week ago we had our internet upgraded from 384k to 5M.  Everything seemed to be working correctly at first, but I opened up µTorrent before I went to bed, and when I woke up the internet had died.  I tried resetting the router, but to no avail.  I tried installing the newest firmware, but that didn't work either.  Eventually what I ended up doing was unplugging both the modem and the router.  About 10 minutes later I plugged the modem back in, and about 10 minutes after that I plugged the router back in.  Problem fixed.

Being the curious person I am, I opened up µTorrent again that night, only to have the same thing happen.  I didn't realize at first, 'cause I was using the wireless internet from our router just fine, but on our desktops it was dead.  Once again the only thing I could do to get the internet working again was unplug both things for 10 minutes.

I tried plugging my computer directly into the modem the next night, opened up µTorrent, and everything was still working perfectly the next morning.  Tried it again through the router and everything failed miserably.

...anyone have any ideas?  My roommates don't like me stealing the internet at night ('cause they wake up before I do, and are pissed when they can't use the internet), and I don't like not downloading stuff =P.  Anyone able to offer any help?

Has anyone seen this that has read the book?  Because the book was absolutely amazing, and I know that they strayed from the book quite a bit on purpose, to help differentiate it from The Last Man on Earth, The Omega Man, and I Am Omega...and that worries me.  So I'm just wondering how close it is to the book, and how it compares to the book.

Anyone?

I know it's a pokemon, but pokemon are items, so he's still technically an item =P

Bonsly is a new item.  Heavy thing that doesn't fly far, but can potentially kill someone even as low as 50%.

o_O

These updates are probably helping the game too. We'll all think the wifi is going to suck, and when it comes out, it'll be awesome!

Or it'll suck...but at least we'll be prepared for it =P
