I honestly forgot they were making it until it was mentioned here.
According to Starcraft II's website it's still in production and they won't be ready until they're confident that it's perfect. What's it been? Twelve years? I remember playing it in high school. My friends and I even tried to design a prequel to it, using the scenario generator. I was assigned to make the Protoss campaign.
I was about halfway done when I hit a snag in the editor that wouldn't let me run a scenario propperly (a certain character had to survive, but you didn't get him until halfway through, and so the scenario would begin with defeat. I tried the command where that part wouldn't come in until you acquired the character, but it wouldn't work). My friend I was working with was supposed to help fix that, but it didn' happen.
On topic--It was the perfect choice when they had Tina Fey play her on SNL. I've always had a tiny crush on Tina.
In case you've never seen Ms. Fay:

Fixed. Geez, I think I just scared the crap out of myself.Vin Ghostal wrote:Sarah Palin has made Dan Quayle look like a Rhodes scholar. She doesn't even strike me as fit to be a governor, let alone Vice President.
Not just in Alaska either if this is any indication.Ostentatious wrote:That, or there are a LOT of lonely guys in Alaska.

And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can't be learned]

She won because it was no secret that corruption in Alaska's government, especially with regards to oil companies, was rampant and she ran as an anti-corruption, strictly ethical candidate. She was seen as a complete change, and because of her lifestyle, as someone who was a "real Alaskan" (state pride is everything up there). As more and more information gets dug up she looks worse and worse, but there's no doubting that she loves the state, and that counted for a lot in people's minds.Ostentatious wrote:Excellent point, Galvatron91. There are mayors who have governed over more people than she has. But, what does it matter. Half the population in Alaska probably thought they were voting for Tina Fey in the first place. That, or there are a LOT of lonely guys in Alaska.
A lot of Alaskans are rethinking though - her approval rating was around 80% prior to being nominated, and I think it's around 60% now.
