It is a standalone game

Temperature in space varies widely. In the shade it can be very cold, in direct sun it can be several hundred degrees.

You certainly hear about the cold more though, as its easier to add heat to the suit than to try to radiate it back. Modern space suits even have blood heaters in them!

Counting Rupees: Korea bangs

I can't really let this go, because of the air of your post. So I have a point or two to address about YOUR post in regards to HIS post.

1) I don't speak Korean, but it was extremely clear to me what the author was attempting to accomplish with the title. I was thinking along the lines of "She bangs" and "Korea bangs" (Maybe I’m grasping!). From then READING the article, it was EXTREMELY obvious that bang meant room or something similar. The title is not misleading; it appeared to be an entirely intentional use of both meanings (English slang and Korean).

2) The uppercase B means bytes, not bits. 6MB from his place in Korea is a 48Mb connection, which I'm sure is commonplace, if not slow in Korea. On the other hand, this speed is damn difficult to find in the states unless you are in an area that offers FIOS, Uverse, or some mom and pop fiber equivalent. The popular speed here in the U.S. with all the cable providers is 10Mb (1.25MB) which I'd bet money is your connection speed, and is clearly far slower than what was discussed in the article.

I swear, I read your comment and just got angry. Maybe I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, but I felt it necessary

in your post. Maybe someone will feel the same about this post and do the same to me, but for now I'll leave you with a child like emoticon to diffuse the situation and not offend anyone.

After watching the completion of ACT 1, it is clear that the solar gun does not in fact count as a special item, which is awesome!

This is very impressive, but I'm completely shocked the solar gun doesn't count as a special item and void the run! This information, if true, will help tremendously. Many thanks.

When Allison started on the show I was luke warm about her, but now I'm big on her too. That being said, she cannot replace Lana! I'm sad to see her go but wish her the best.
