This is very inconvenient. If I play a different book, I have to navigate to the other book in the Discover tab in order to continue playing it.

I have played through DS1 plenty of times, so the Anor Londo archers are not usually a big deal any more. However, today was different.

First try, got invaded just as I ran up. Got killed easily. Never been invaded here before.

Second try, got an arrow in the back from the left archer. Don't usually attract his attention, but today he kept shooting. Not sure why he usually ignores me. Maybe he just doesn't like sorcerers?

Third try, a freaking vagrant showed up! Never seen one before. I was fumbling to take a screenshot while avoiding the shots from the archers and didn't mind when it killed me.

Fourth try, just got knocked off the edge by the right archer. I exited out before dying, but

Do they just have a random handful of licenses they got somewhere? Do they actually try and go by some measure of popularity? Do they have polls they do somewhere to find out what people want to buy?

I know personally I'd like Discs of Tron, Tapper, and that machine from The Last Starfighter (I know it wasn't a real game, but someone made one for it, so they could license that). But I'm sure everyone has their favorites and I'm wondering how they get chosen. The games selected so far seem pretty random.

When I leave the QBert arcade machine on, but with the volume down to 0, it's unfortunate that the knocker keeps activating occasionally whenever QBert jumps off the edge in the attract mode.

Yes, I know I can disable the knocker in the settings, but I like the knocker to be enabled when I'm playing. I just don't want it to activate when the volume is dialed down to 0.

Another option I suppose would be to disable the knocker during attract mode.

The Gremlins book just keeps on giving. I was surprised to find that there are 3 other nice Mogwai besides Gizmo, and the offspring of one of them caused the Bay of Pigs fiasco. Another caused problems with the space shuttle Columbia, although apparently not the one that caused it's destruction.

I have played 5 games against myself. This last one I really pushed for a shadow military victory. I got 7 points, but couldn't get the last 3 before the ring was tossed in.

Problem was that even though I was able to build up big armies early on, the FP (also me) saw what SP was doing and reinforced in any area SP reinforced. (FP separated Aragorn early to make sure Gondor was activated.)

They were dying and had no reinforcements left in the Gondor region at the end, but it was enough that I just didn't have the strength to finish those armies soon enough.

Next time I will try reinforcing elsewhere, but if FP reinforces there too, it just isn't going to work.

Just got to the part of the book where Kate tells Billy about why she doesn't celebrate Xmas. Turns out that besides her father's death, her grandmother died on Xmas and her dog got run over on Xmas. Also, her appendix burst while opening presents and she had to have it removed on Xmas.

It's no wonder she doesn't celebrate!

My only explanation for this is that he was already a trillion years old when we first meet him, so adding another trillion in between chapters in the 2nd book just doesn't change him at all.

Alternative theories? Maybe he's like the terminator before his learning switch is enabled in Terminator 2? Or, his depression is so absolute that it just doesn't allow for circumstances to change it.

I got the key and the postcard. Whenever I rewatch I think about getting more.

I went to a mall in the evening so I could go to the first screening. I was wearing a bath robe while perusing various stores, killing time until it was time to line up.

Turns out that I looked suspicious because they called mall security on me. I had to explain the movie to them and how Arthur wears a bathrobe the whole time.

I got a call on my phone during that time, and apparently that was enough to prove I wasn't homeless or something because they said "that looks like an expensive phone, let's go".

It was a weird experience. Do people intent on thievery typically wear bathrobes and have cheap phones? Or maybe just crazy people who are lost in space and time? Maybe the owners of the s
