Original story from the Daily Beast is over 2 weeks old, the Academy is suing them for IP infringement, and most guests wont accept any such gift bags because they get charged tax on them, but don't let any of that stop you from recycling old news and offering it as content, Escapist.

These are not secret codes, this is how URLs work. Each of these "codes" is just the URL identifier that appears when you search by Genre in Netflix. For example, the "83" code that brings up TV Shows is what the URL resolves to when you elect to browse TV shows from the main Netflix page.

And here is a link to an article from 2012 with those exact same pictures. This isn't new in the slightest http://themetapicture.com/cool-facts-from-science-world/ EDIT - Which is the first result when you type Science World Factoids into Google. Great research and fact checking there

Misleading title advertising a competition as news. Competition run through Lockerdome, which wants my social media details for no apparent reason. Competition terms that exclude members from outside the US from competing. Yep, I'm feeling the value of that PubClub membership right now.

I for one would pay for a new Lost Vikings game. Hopefully this level ofinterest will provide some traction to make that happen

Indeed. I think a company that manages to develop a FPS with a new, I mean a seriously new mechanic, will print bank.

I guess that explains why Quake and UT are such massive franchises today... Oh wait, they're not. The arena shooter has had its day, but that age has passed. The market preference has moved on to more objective based gameplay, so the market will be saturated by games that cater to the demand...

Please stop using Lockerdome. For a start, it restricts anyone from outside the US from entering in these competitions. That may be deliberate, and is certainly not a dealbreaker, but it is quite annoying. HOWEVER, what is a dealbreaker is that it only accepts signups with Facebook and...

I flagged it for review, that image really needs to be changed. Not cool, Escapist.

So I can't enter the competition unless I link my Facebook Account? Not gonna happen, I need board games less than I need to not link my Facebook to every site that asks for it

To be honest, I don't see this having that much of an effect. I can't remember the last time I went to the Google home page, I just open a new tab and type my search term into the address bar when I need to Google something

I'd just like to put forward that I would watch the shit out of a Star Trek series built around the SCE. With regard to the recent reboots... A TV show built in the same universe could work very well, on the proviso that they let someone else do it. One of my biggest issues with the reboot is...
