An old puzzle: If you put one grain of wheat on the first square of the chessboard, two on the second, four on the third, eight on the fourth, and so on, how many grains of wheat do you need to put on the 64th square? The answer is 9,223,372,036,8 54,775,808(appr oximately 9.22x10 18 ) grains of wheat. That's a lot of nutrition.

By the way, the lady playing blindfolded is Judit Polgar, a Hungarian woman who is the strongest female player ever. She only plays in womens events and at one time she was in the top ten strongest chess players in the world. The only woman to achieve that.

Hmmm this song

jayriginal:
Hmm.

Do you play chess? I'd have challenged you to take it up but chess has a way of taking over a person. Those who really play know what I am talking about.

I think there was a thread about this sometime ago.

jutino:
used to take Felvin den but i noticed that after taking it my period will be so scanty so I stop taking it, what I take now it's just paracetamol.

ephi123:
That someone said something doesn't make it true through.

Every drug has side effects to varying degrees but to generalize and say Felvin causes fibroid, haba!

hollaimpeccabl:
Felvin is much milder,take it a day b4 u start and stay away from sugary things atleast a week before you start.All those bitterleaf therapy is easier said than done...besides 2 capsule should not av much effect

I've played every God of War game (except Betrayal & Ghost of Sparta), my love for Kratos & his brand of carnage is epic. It's been a long time since I've played Doom (I believe it was the original one on PC (DOS), yup a very long time), can't really help you there.

LewisO:
CoCoLav This your iQ test is superb
Hw u doing?

This is obviously not a definitive list, you'd need to play every video game sequel known to man. What video game sequel do you consider the worst? What game made or almost made you give up on the franchise? Here are the ones I can think of right now:

Assassin's Creed: Revelations - This was probably the first AC game you never tried to finish. It suffers from the the constant back and forth gameplay, that reminds you that you're currently playing the most boring & repetitive AC video game ever created until...

Assassin's Creed III - The other AC game that bored you to death. Yes, it might have been less annoying than running back and forth like a headless chicken attempting to do the Macarena, and it had that epic pre-title reveal while you were controlling Haytham, but it still bored you. Yes, the hunting bit was exciting, but you got bored after skinning your 10th animal, while acting like a bored ninja on a tree. This was the second AC game you didn't finish. Fortunately, Ubisoft redeemed themselves with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. Apparently, we just wanted to be pirates.

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within - You thought ACR was Ubisoft's first attempt at the boring back and forth headless chicken dance? Nope, they pulled this travesty years ago, yes it also involved time travel with our dear Prince running back and forth in time in the SAME FREAKING BUILDING! By the third time of you doing the back and forth headless chicken dance, you probably threw away the game disc, while yelling "DUECES/WAKA/YOUR FATHER" or just simply screamed at it.

Duke Nukem Forever - This is solely here because I stopped playing FPSs while I was waiting for it. The majority of those who did wait & finally played it, label it as a dated disappointment.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 - This is solely here because it stopped me from playing the franchise. I was going to get this and the original game, but by the time I perused the forums, I didn't bother anymore. Then the final nail in the coffin happened - Disney bought LucasArts and then destroyed it, taking away their [only] hope of ever redeeming this franchise.

The feeling is mutual
