    Day of the Doctor thread SPOILERS!

    I have a theory, that no one else seems to of brought up. To me the moment is Bad Wolf. When Rose became Bad Wolf she went throughout time (seen by the presence of Bad Wolf signs every where). My theory is that she went back and made the Gallifreyans believe the moment had became...

    Informing children of the birds and the bees

    I don't remember having this conversation as a child, so it mustn't have been bad. My parents were brutally honest most of the time but this mustn't of been one of them. I remember reading a particularly good explanation for younger children: "When a mummy and daddy love each other very...

    Tap water , do you drink it?

    Yup, but then the tap water here is pretty damn pure. They only started adding fluorine after the earthquakes (I'm from Christchurch, NZ). I buy bottled water when I go to Dunedin because it just tastes odd, you can still taste it in hot drinks. The water here is sourced from an aquifer so...

    Nuclear power, yay or nay?

    Yes, in the US and other geographically stable areas. Here in New Zealand and other places like Japan where there are high chances of earthquakes/tsunamis its just a bad idea. As mentioned the waste needs to be stored forever (not all waste can be used in further reactions, ie used...

    Why do people buy used games?

    I could tell you lived in the USA before I checked your profile. In NZ there are often limited choices, a lot of websites won't ship here, or the shipping is horrendous. If the game isn't a huge title then shops that don't specialise in games (or other nerd/geek culture) often don't stock it...

    What Do You Name Your RPG Characters?

    Lliustril. I find choosing a name stressful, so when I found one I liked I stuck with it. It works for almost anything, except in games where your a group/empire etc. I began using it when I needed a name for, I think, Guild Wars 2. Its from a random name generator. Suffice to say I've never...

    Poll: Your Music Library

    12,500 songs which is just short of 50GB.... I've never deleted music (I have another folder for music I don't listen to. Rock,gothic metal,soundtrack (games and movies), other metal, classical and pop. In that order. I think the reason why rock is my biggest is I've always liked it. I also...

    what surgery's have you had?

    Nothing major here, worst would be having my tonsils removed when I was 14. Apparently my throat was so badly scared from having tonsillitis so many times that they had issues removing them. The hole (where they came from?) was fun, I could stick my finger in it, once it stopped freaking me out...

    PC gaming THE COST

    I brought my computer 2 years ago. It cost me approximately $2500 NZ (£1100 or US$1700). As The Eupho Guy said "Hardware prices down under are stupidly high". I was going to build it my self, and had a $3000 budget (it had to last me, without upgrades for the rest of uni) but I found a...
