  1. If they added Fort Knox and I couldn't get into it I would go Berserk
  2. Of course we do! It's where St. Patrick originates from (Not born). Basically St. Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland. Now most would say there never were snakes in Ireland, but the term 'snakes' can be understood as 'demons' or 'evil' in this case. There is a lot of speculation to where he grew up, where he was sold as a slave to etc. But the morale of the story is the same. He is buried in Downpatrick here in the North and serves as an educational/religious place. The day celebrates him and what he done for Ireland, throughout the world, USA etc would typically celebrate it as a time to celebrate Ireland and their Irish heritage. Everywhere in Ireland would celebrate it, with street parades and festivals. It is safe to say lots of people here will be missing work this weekend/start of next week due to 'personal reasons' St. Patrick's Grave (Image not allowed 'in this community' for some reason. Google it) St Patrick SUPPOSEDLY drove the snakes out of Ireland but in reality there is no suggestion that snakes ever existed in Ireland. In fact, it is believed that the reference of "snakes" pertained to the pagan druids whose religion was supplanted by Catholicism also St Patrick grew up in Wales and was kidnapped by Irish Pirates (Sea raiders, not like the ones from the 1800s) and sold into Slavery. Most of our Culture was washed away when modern religion arrived (The fault of humans not the religion.) (no I'm not apart of any Celtic Religion, I'm an Atheist). Most people cant even speak Irish any more. (I don't know that much even, the education system's fault)
  3. Well since up here in the north is influenced by British (UK) and the south is it's own (EU) state I suppose it can differ. There is A lot of farmers/farmland here so we would tend to have more local grown foods as opposed to produced products. Stereo-typically potatoes is eaten a lot here. One thing I found during the G8 summit (last year here) was that 'The Belfast Boxty is a very typical Irish dish and is widely eaten'. Now, I had only ever heard of a 'Belfast Boxty' 2 weeks prior to that, because my friend in the US goes to an Irish bar that serves it, I have never once seen it on a menu here (in Belfast) nor have I heard of anyone who has had it. I can't be 100% sure about the typical diet of the southerners but here we would generally consume the same as the rest of the UK, locally sourced meats and veg. Im not sure about other areas around the world but one thing I found interesting was that here they do a 'trace' thing, where you can buy a meat or veg product, and you can trace it directly back the farm it came, from when/where it was shipped. There are a lot of local butchers and fruit/veg shops around that sell fresh produce which I hear is less common in other places. as a person from the republic (Dublin to be specific) I can say we eat the same as anyone else. lasagne, Fajitas (like tacos) Vegetables, Fast food (like McDonald's, Chinese food, Subway, KFC, Ect.) Beans, sausages, meat from the countryside and abroad, last year everyone in Europe had the surprise of horse meat being in most of the foreign meat. I didn't care, our ancestors ate horse, but apparently its no longer the cultural norm. Most people get food from supermarkets like Tesco (English owned and sell clothing and electronics), Lidl and Aldi (both Lidle and Aldi are German) and Dunnes Stores(Irish owned (which also sell clothing items) Other popular small food stores include Supervalu and Spar
  4. It's Canadian. It's cold in Winter. Originaly called Terra Nova. European immigrants, mostly English, Scots, Irish and French settled there. Well then, you got it pretty much. And our accents are slightly retarded as well. Lol. When we get drunk we sound like the Irish! And the rest of Canada cannot understand us because we talk too fast... Now I want to go to Ireland to compare my accent to the real thing. Haha You're welcome anytime
  5. It's Canadian. It's cold in Winter. Originaly called Terra Nova. European immigrants, mostly English, Scots, Irish and French settled there because of an Earthquake that was caused by Gold dust
  6. I could set up the mapping tools on my computer but Frankly I didn't have the patience after 3 hours of figuring it out. Is there any chance the Devs would implement it in an update
  7. Dublin for the nightlife, don't expect to be wowed by the beauty of Dublin, because there isn't any... And then the country for the 'authentic' feel of Ireland. There's some great hiking spots along the Wicklow way that I would recommend anyone coming to Ireland to go and do some trekking. There are various spots around the city that are beautiful. Although rare. Another thing is Kerry, which is in a tie with Wicklow for most beautiful county in my opinion
  8. I'm sorry if I appear stupid but when it says ipod does it mean it will be a useless loot-able item or will we be able to make custom playlists of music?
  9. Thanks. It's as movie accurate as I can get I am literally watching 3rd season of TWD and putting stuff up as I see it on the screen You will meet the all mighty Tara in season 4. Have patience young soul...
  10. RingoD's map mod will be included in the game as a separate map, so wish granted. yes!
  11. If the Devs build Louisville, this should be a big Petrol station on the way, I can just imagine, surrounded by woods and a lake, car pile-ups. It's..... it's Beautiful. Maybe one day the devs will add user made buildings like this to the game (with the creators permission)
  12. is that the cage where Tara hid from the Walkers?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Great project by the way
  13. Freak fires! So you have made a base that could hold off a horde of 10,000 (but zombies by now are as rare as gold in your area). So you're just chilling, there is nothing left to do and you have all the non perishables and rain barrels you would ever need, along with an acre of farmland. Lets say in a dense area a power main exploded, and within hours the fire begins to spread house to house, leaving no loot or building untouched in the immediate area, then it continues to spread, all across town, destroying almost all buildings and loot. You are doing a perimeter check when you notice the flames, you rush to your house and grab a few things but already the flames have began to claim your house. You escape, injured and with few supplies, the town is still burning, hundreds of zed are being drawn from the woods. Soon the area is infested, the infrastructure of the burnt buildings could collapse at any moment, With no food, shelter, or water you are forced from your cosy home into the harsh world all over again. You have no choice but to move to the next town over. Suddenly, as zombies migrate to the burning town, every second, as you sleep in that abandoned bar or motel along the highway, the chances of zombies breaking down your door increases in the double digits each second It would bring the survival element rushing back into the game for those of us who have made life to easy in our false sense of security
  14. 1. Alaska, U.S.A. I hope to one day get a green card and move there. (It's mah dream) I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the U.S (Besides maybe Washington state. Or Oregon. or Colorado.) preferably in a small isolated Alaskan town with 300 people or less non accessible by road or rail. Then Colorado and Washington tie and Oregon after. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the US. if not the US then a south east Asian country. Maybe Burma, Thailand, Vietnam or China. Canada maybe. 2. The authentic Ireland? By authentic do you mean Historical or what life is like for your average Joe? Or nature wise? Please respond and I will answer
  15. its also more of a political thing. Its because in the North some people want it to remain in Britain and some want it to join Ireland. You could be a muslim and be on the united Ireland side or a Hindu and on the Loyalist side
  16. Im not a catholic or Protestant so I have no clue. Plus it's not really like that down here that's more in the north Because we are all Psychics. Because Leprechauns don't exist maybe?
  17. That's like saying all black people eat KFC. Zero percent truth behind it
  18. at exactly stereotype p.m Not a big fan of cheese.
  19. Kerry gold butter. It is amazing, on toast but nothing beats nutella
  20. Nope, should it? no, sorry don't know how to help
  21. when I open worldEd it says "the Tiles directory specified in the preferences doesn't exist! (while reading Tilesets.txt)"
