February 3

Early 1990s song

[edit]

In the early 1990s was this song, and I don't remember what it is, I just remember the plot of the music video. The music video may have been shot in black and white, and involved an African-looking woman in a wedding dress running away, being chased by her groom. There was a Caucasian-looking woman on a train in civvies who saw her, swapped clothes with her, and ran in the bride's place. It's not Runaway by Janet Jackson, and I'm unsure if it's Runaway by the Corrs (I think it's earlier than that). So I guess my question is, what song is it? Thanks for any help. -Malkinann (talk) 04:42, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

MMORPG character variety: PvP vs. PvE

[edit]

In MMORPGs, do characters at the upper levels display a greater variety of builds on PvE than PvP servers, given the reduced competitive pressure to optimize? Does PvE see race-class combos that aren't viable in PvP? NeonMerlin 06:59, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, all I can say is 'probably'. And there is probably even greater variation on 'Roleplaying' servers. − Twas Now ( talkcontribse-mail ) 07:29, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, you'd also have to support the premise that PvE leads to reduced competitive pressure. I think that's quite disputable -- while I'm not sure it's wrong, I'm quite sure it's not clear-cut. — Lomn 18:31, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Information on Star & Garter Musical

[edit]

Can anyone tell me anything about a musical called the Star & Garter. I know that it was on in the West End and starred Gypsy Rose Lee. Other than that I am having difficulty finding any details.

I found a small bit of information on it... but you probably already knew it: When the page loads just scroll down a bit and you should see some highlighted text. ScarianCall me Pat 21:46, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Can you countinue to play the demos after your time is up. What I mean is, when your time is over can you get back on and play the demo again for the same time?--76.176.130.141 (talk) 23:23, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure you can. I think it hints at that on the website as well. 206.252.74.48 (talk) 15:22, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
