It is. J.K. Rowling was quoted as saying that before she started writing the series seriously, that she wrote a "last chapter for the last book" that tied up all the loose ends of the book, and to give her something to work towards.

People have been posting so called "spoilers" in /b/ on 7chan for a few days, but so far, that's the only one that seems real.

Did she predict the pedo-bait Herminoine would become?

Wow, I love the new level icon I've been graced with.

When I look at my posts, though, at first glance, I think I'm reading Malachy's instead of mine. Haha.

really? because I swear if anything it'd be the other way around for me, since I was until recently level 14, in fact before the redesign, I often was caught off guard by level 14 users making posts. Luckily for me I hadn't gotten too used to my level 15 icon.

I did miss out on the old level 24 sword :(

hmm. never had that. But i always wind up having random bleeding wounds that I can't place how it happened. Really, I am bleeding on my leg right now and its on a spot that I never rub up against anything and rarely catches on things either...I don't understand it.

I also have this big nasty bruise from using my leg as a resting spot for a 60lb canoe the other day...and then I put an even heavier canoe on the same spot today.
yay for days off, eh?

There have been days I've posted almost exclusivly in this topic but since the redesign everything seems too pristine to use. It's kind of like a new bar of soap that way.

I know what you mean... It feels wrong to miss-spell or not punctuate properly. and I don't like to post...I probably have made a few more posts than a normal day, but it's still like taking a new board out right from the store, I don't want to hit a rock and fuck it up.

Oh, I think I've posted more messages yesterday night than in the past two weeks or so. I guess I'm the complete opposite, when I was a kid and I got a game I just had to rush to my NES or SNES to play it. I also felt that the forum was getting a bit repetitive lately (I guess everyone has that feeling once every now and then) and this redesign really breaks the rut in a way.

Lol, I used to like my lead pipe so much that I stopped depositing just so that I wouldn't get the lame nunchakas. But now I'm perfectly content with my stiletto/kris hybrid thingie, it's really the perfect weapon for a Stealth Jew to stab someone in the back with. But it unfortunately seems that I'm surrounded by nunchakas so I guess I'll have to carefully watch my experience in the future.

By the way, why is the smiley that I'm using for this post called "thinking"? It looks more like a "I wear shades and I'm not ashamed" icon.

I'm not liking the new layout so much.

I'm just not used to it yet.

Nor do I get the level upgrades. How the hell did I go from 11 to 17 and still get a crappy image.

Oh yes it's raining here, I got fucking school summer work.

But I did get a 5 on my AP US History exam.

And I started to read Beowulf.

Actually, if I remember correctly, I think that your experience is static now--that is, if you stop on level X, you stay at level X. They've ditched the old user-based system in favor of just more levels spread out further. That's why Pimp is only at level 50 out of 60.

It replaced the old blue lightbulb icon.

I know this was last week, but can anyone imagine the conversation the first time she introduced her man to her parents?

Jane Felix-Brown: "And this is Omar."
Mrs Felix-Brown: "He's very nice - do we know his parents?"
Jane Felix-Brown: "Well..."

Sadly enough, that's a pretty accurate statement you've made there about Colombia. I think there have been about 2,3 or 4 Colombian players with a certain level of fame who have been stabbed/shot to death in the last... what, 15 years?

The famous one is Andres lo Escobar, who's own goal put Columbia out of the World Cup in '94 (this making a mockery of his nickname "The Immortal Number 2"), but one or two others have notably been killd. But this isn't the end of it - within the domestic Columbian league players have been shot or even kidnapped (which has also happened in the Brazilian and Argentine leagues - although there kidnappings also involve club officials or members of the player's family).

Suddenly Chelsea Headhunters look like knuckle-dragging neander...oh, wait...

Ah, sweet, I wasn't yet aware of that. I guess I can just sit behind my computer in nothing but my underpants and drink beer then.

I still don't get the shades. When I see someone wearing sunglasses in the streets my first thought isn't "hey, that guy must be a philosopher". I'd sooner associate it with being an Internet badass than with Plato, Aristotle and Archimedes. Then again, maybe they'd also have worn sunglasses if the concept had been invented back then.

There's now around 60 levels for usrs instead of 30, so in essence there is now two levels for each of the old levels. Thus how I was able to go from being a Level 15 user to a level 30 user.

But I have noticved that the voting power has gone up as well. I originally had a 7.40 something voting power before the redesign, now I've got something 11.57 or so.

I think that is correct, because Tom said that there will definitly not be only ONE level 60 user now like how it used to be with level 30.

Somehwere right now, humantarget is crying. And I feel not the least bit of pitty for him.
