  1. As you can see, I've decided to rename the boards to have a little bit more creativity (even if they are terribly cheesy!) There have been a few suggestions for the new name of the "Entertainment & Consumer Technology" boards so I thought I'd take a poll to see which one is the most preferred.
  2. I was also thinking of "The Stage" Maybe a poll is in order to choose between The Red Carpet, The Show Floor, and The Stage?
  3. No - iPhones/iPods/iPads will go into "Consumer Technology".
  4. I genuinely want to cultivate the Tabletop Gaming part of our community because we are a "gaming forum" first and foremost, and that naturally includes Tabletop Gaming so it's only "natural" that it receives its own forum. We simply don't have enough consumer tech discussion outside of PC stuff to warrant its own "technology and consumerism" forum or sub-forum which is why I've decided that Mac-related discussion will take place on the newly renamed "PC/Mac Tech and PCCB" sub-forum and all other consumer-tech related discussion will take place in "The Red Carpet" (or whatever name we settle on for Entertainment & Consumer Technology)
  5. Then let the thought of how quickly those Mac-related threads will be buried provide soothing comfort to you
  6. The PC Tech board isn't strictly for gaming though the majority of the discussion will be centered on that. That board can essentially be used for any "computer-related" issues or discussions.
  7. Mac didn't have a "natural" home so I made the decision to include it in the "PC Tech" sub-board.
  8. Unless I get a lot more complaints, the answer is No
  9. Come up with something better for "Entertainment & Consumer Technology" then.
  10. In a cosmic first, scientists detect ‘ghost particles’ from a distant galaxy When the sun was young and faint and the Earth was barely formed, a gigantic black hole in a distant, brilliant galaxy spat out a powerful jet of radiation. That jet contained neutrinos — subatomic particles so tiny and difficult to detect they are nicknamed “ghost particles.” Four billion years later, at Earth’s South Pole, 5,160 sensors buried more than a mile beneath the ice detected a single ghostly neutrino as it interacted with an atom. Scientists then traced the particle back to the galaxy that created it.
  11. These Prefixes haven been added as per @RedSoxFan9 and @Spork3245 suggestions. Video Games - Crowdfunding, Sales & Deals Tabletop Games - Crowdfunding PC/Mac Technical and Community - PC Tech, Mac Tech, and PCCB
  12. They'll get over it What color should the Mac tag be?
  13. OK - if we go with an Apple prefix, should it go in Entertainment or PC Tech? Or should there be a "Mac" prefix for the PC Tech board (to be renamed PC/Mac Tech) and then all other Apple products (iPads, iPods) will still be part of Consumer Technology?
  14. The update launched last week for the Steam and GOG versions of Desperados, bringing support for Windows 7, 8, and 10, plus Mac and Linux. For years, playing this game on modern systems involved downloading rando files off the Internet, installing a tool, and poking around with all sorts of settings.
  15. The Justice Department will appeal the AT&T-Time Warner merger approval, according to a court document filed Thursday.
  16. Stegmaier is the designer of Scythe, a novel strategy board game released in 2016, one that is beloved by fans and critics alike. He’s set to release the third and final expansion for that game, called Scythe: The Rise of Fenris, at this year’s Gen Con in Indianapolis. After spending a few nights playing it, both with friends and as a solo experience, I’m absolutely blown away. Fenris is an incredible value, and represents board gaming’s new state of the art.
  17. Epic announced "a sweeping change" to the marketplace yesterday that will boost creators' take on their sales to 88 percent, a significantly above-standard rate increase that applies to all transactions going forward—and (this is the really good bit) to all previous transactions as well, all the way back to the launch of the UE Marketplace in 2014.
  18. Players in the Netherlands and Belgium “will be restricted from opening containers” following this week’s patch. This will prevent players in those countries from directly engaging with loot boxes, presumably in observance of Dutch and Belgian gambling law. Trading and Marketplace features have been re-enabled in the Netherlands, as well.
  19. I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE Game of Thrones I quit after the Red Wedding because I realized that not all of the characters were killed off Westworld is fine, but it's not nearly as "intelligent" a show as it thinks it is.
  20. Apart from a few areas, Africa is probably at its most peaceful since before European colonialists showed up. In fact, Ethiopia and Eritrea just ended 20 years of war.
