You have two tubs of ice cream in your trunk, it is 87° F. outside, and you have been sitting in a line to get out for about ten minutes. As you finally are second-in-line to get out, you notice that there is a car waiting in a side-access lane perpendicular to yours. They are angled in such a way that they could get between you and the car in front of you that is about to turn out of the parking lot. Do you: * Let them get in front of you. They have been waiting too, and you have been waiting long enough that the ice cream is probably melted anyway. * Pretend to be jiving along to non-existent music that is so distracting, you wouldn’t possibly notice anyone trying to cut in front of you. Pull up as close as you can to the car in front of you to deny the person access. * Pretend to wave the other car forwards, then right before they start moving, honk and gun your engine to get in front of them. Sure they are just an octogenarian couple with a small Pomeranian in the back window, but it serves them right for being stupid enough to attempt to take a shortcut that dead ends at traffic. Besides, if they hit you, it is their fault and you get the insurance money to pay for that new bumper that you wanted after you pulled forward too far in your garage.     Community Buzz Patch Notes for 2.0 on the PTS Skill Calculator for PTS New skills: * Commando/Mercenary – Electro Net, Mortar Salvo/Missile Salvo * Vanguard/Powertech – Shoulder Cannon, Into the Fray/Close and Personal * Sentinel/Marauder – Twin Dual Saber Throw * Guardian/Juggernaut – Saber Reflect (direct, ST reflect, Tech Force and Ranged damage), Visionary/Endless Rage * Sage/Sorcerer – Force Barrier * Shadow/Assassin – Phase Walk * Gunslinger/Sniper – Ready for Anything/Spotter (stealth detection), Hightail It/Covered Escape * Scoundrel/Operative – Scamper/Exfiltrate, Street Tough/Preparedness

Your company has a policy with which the client agreed when they signed on with you. This policy states that no-showed appointments are charged to the client’s bill, as the timeslot could have been used for another client if you had been given advance notice. The client is upset with this policy now, and they threaten to take their business elsewhere unless you set another appointment free-of-charge. Do you: * Give the client an appointment for free, cheerfully and happily, as they have been a client for a long time and deserve extra attention, no matter how inconsiderate they were. * Give the client the appointment for free, but warn them that it is putting you out and you will not be repeating this favor.  Indicate that it is a burden and food out of your children’s mouths. * Give the client a figurative swift kick to the rear out the door, making darn sure it hits them on the way out. You don’t want clients that are inconsiderate cheapskates.   Community Buzz Complimentary cartel coin allotment bug   Thank you Deltia69 & Itrorx for their positive review on iTunes!  Deltia69, you made Carla laugh on your operative comment.  She said they do need a buff!

Money is beyond tight and this list already keeps you pretty poor throughout the month. Someone, not on the list, gives you a very nice present.  This upsets your normal budget of presents because now you feel obligated to by a present for them in return. You scour the house and try to see if there is an equally awesome something that you may have gotten at one point and didn't use. There's nothing. What do you do? * Suck it up and find something on caliber with what you received, which was very nice. You know you can find something budgetary, but where and how hard will it be is the question. You just decide that you're going to find them just the right gift and give it to them. * You find a pair of unopened socks and an unused fingernail trimming kit that you got from a cheeky great aunt 10 years ago. Perfect! You wrap these things up and hope that the receiver doesn't notice the cheapness of the gift. * You say thank you and hope you don't see the giver over the holidays. Maybe you'll get something that you don't want and you can "pass it on" to them. Or not, you really don't care, considering you didn't agree to buy them anything in the first place.   Community Buzz

One of the rules that you have in place, because the guild is so popular, is that any character that hasn't been played in 20 days will be removed from the guild. The reason you have this rule is so that people who play their toons on a regular basis can be invited into the guild which BioWare has a cap of 500 players allowed. You are currently hitting over 400 characters in the guild. Many of them are alts. One player logs into the game after said amount of time and finds himself removed from the guild. He whispers an officer and promptly gets invited back only to start complaining in guild chat about how stupid the rule is and then proceeds to call everyone in the guild "welfare recipients" and that he's a working man with a job, responsiblity's and kids. This is quite obviously offensive to many players in the guild. After taking him aside and talking with him privately, do you - * Understand where he is coming from but kindly ask him to apologize to the rest of the guild members even though he's still fuming. * Let him have his rant, tell everyone to ignore him. Maybe he'll shut up and cool off on his own. * /gkick his hairy wookie butt to the curb. No one talks to anyone like that and he's obviously not an intelligent person.   Community Buzz TORWARS interview with Rob Hinkle   http://torwars.com/2012/12/07/torwars-podcast-120-exclusive-interview-with-senior-systems-designer-rob-hinkle/ Want your guild highlighted?  Drop us an email at:   corellianrun@gmail.com Thank you, EVERYONE, for listening!

A certain player, new to the guild is a nice enough person when you invite them, but then you notice that in the guild vault logs, they're taking items of value out, most of which are items they can't use. You confront the player and they say that they really need the in-game money and were selling them and that they planned on paying the guild back. You - * Kindly ask the player not to do it anymore and give them enough of your own in-game currency to help them out with whatever they need. * Ask the player to stop doing it and give them another chance, letting them off with a warning. * Immediately admonish them, give them a stern lecture about guild politics and /gkick them to the curb, then let everyone in the guild know who stole from them and that they and their alts are never allowed in the guild again.  You also change guild bank access, so that only people with seniority have access, causing a few other players to /gquit.

As you approach the mail box, you see that someone has left a half-eaten and sticky looking blueberry muffin right in front of the slot where the mail goes. You roll your eyes and think that probably a drunk college student or a homeless person left it there last night. Do you: * Sweep the half-eaten muffin off the mail box and into the bushes with your hand and then mail your payment? Doing this will mean you will need to wash your hands before clocking in and make you a few minutes late. However, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that other people such as your coworkers using the mail box later won’t have to encounter the muffin. * Deftly avoid touching the sticky muffin and just mail your payment. After all, you didn’t put it there so why should you clean up after someone else’s mess and be late for work.

While you're sitting with your child a person sits not only right next to you, but practically ON you. It's truly inconsiderate. You try to move over a little to give yourself room but there isn't any. You are relieved when the person can't fit their entire ten person party into the space and you've made it clear, you're not budging one inch, even if they're breathing on you and their breath smells like putrid cotton candy. The family gives up and moves so you take this moment of freedom and set your backpack right next to you, making it look like your saving a seat. One minute after the parade starts a woman and her baby ask if there's anyone sitting next to you and essentially if you can move your backpack. You: 1 - Smile kindly and move your pack so that she can have the last spot on the parade route. 2 - Pretend you don't hear her and continue to laugh and cheer at the parade. 3 - Remember that bean burrito you had for lunch? Look her right in the eye and let all the pressure fly loud and proud. Then move the backpack.
