    Do you think girls are good gamers?

    I find this thread offensive. There's an unstated assumption here that there is something inherently better or worse about women as compared to men. Even inviting that comparison is something I find sexist and inappropriate. So let's change the subject. Do you think blacks are good gamers...

    Poll: Cougars

    Predictable "Yes" spike in the 19 - 25 range; equally predictable "No" for the 15 - 18 range. Lulz. Anyway there's a woman I work with, towards the younger end of the Cougar range. And I'd totally tap that.

    Montreal Police "Investigate" School Shooting Game

    Good eye, it's not. The purpose of a news outlet (a reputable one, ie not Fox News) is to inform its audience of recent happenings. The purpose of a flash game is to entertain.

    Ever get the feeling that your country is run by idiots?

    Poll: Are you scared of science and progress?

    I wonder if an internet message board is really the place to be holding this poll. I suspect your responses will be more than slightly biased towards one answer.

    @ TC Yes, I do often get the feeling that your country is run by idiots. I get the same feeling about the Americans, too.

    Ask a detective/undercover cop

    I've got a question, more relating to PIs but I'm hoping you can answer anyway. There's doctor-patient privilage, and lawyer-client privilage. Is there a similar thing that prevents a PI from being called to testify against a client? If so, how far does it extend?

    Ultra obscure games that only you know exist

    Demigod and Sins were both embraced by the PC gaming community as fantastic titles that every PC gamer should buy, amidst rave reviews and thunderous applause. They are neither underrated nor overlooked, and I scoff at the notion that PC gamers are some kind of shrinking minority in an age of...
