Anyone else watch the show?
http://dsc.discovery.com/tv/colony/colony.html?sicontent=0&sicreative=4045505073&siclientid=3429&sitrackingid=80055074&campaign=GGL|the+colony|Colony+-+Alone|GGL+TC+-+Branded+-+Show+-+Alone
Well, I missed the first two episodes, watched this week's. I got through the usual drama BS that's in these shows and also got through the 'reality' genre of it all.
It's pretty watchable, but next weeks episode may be the deal breaker for me. Some traders come into the compound and are selling their wares. Anyway, one of the survivors in the compound yells, "no guns! no guns!" No idea if that's him telling them to put them away or they don't want to buy any.
I can see how they don't want guns because seriously, the raiders that attack don't have any and if the survivors had guns the raiders would get pwnt. Then, how would you figure they get shot? Have guns with simmunition? That's what I would do, but I bet the show doesn't have that budget. That and, they probably can't play it as dramatic as group of engineers making a death mobile out of a '72 Oldsmobile Delta 88.
They should have guns in the show, it'd be more realistic. Obviously, a group of self righteous anti-gun dinks aren't going to live long in a post-apocalyptic scenario, no matter how many MacGyver devices they can create.

Maddness91 yay rapid share and such... there also torrents available almost everywhere... these are all rapidshare / other direct downloads... the first 2 are tested, the 3rd i got somewhere else... EP #1: EP #2: EP #1,2,3 (in 4 parts not 2, so it takes longer): (1st day and i'm already being helpful... i'm on a roll cool ) at the gun debate, idk if it would be legal for the show to just basically hand out real guns to the survivors... the legalities alone would prolly kill the show befor it started... also this show is supposed to be geared towards useing the mind to create things to overcome the odds of a PAW and to give viewers some thing to think about themselves... not just "ok week 2 out of 6, we have guns now and they don't, so we can basically hunt / steal anything we need now... screw all the stuff we were building..." think about it... would u watch a show that just had 10 guys w/ guns go out and loot everything every day in a place the size of a very small town? for 6 weeks? would get boring after 2-3 days... "what did we get today guys?" "food and water and we shot some guy in the foot to get it" "ok... wait... isn;t that what we did yesterday?" "yeah... sounds close... hey want some canned hot dogs?"
It'd be all staged, like the show is. Well, kind of, the raiders wont be hurting them so, yeah and I doubt they'd let them make actual deadly weapons to use against the raiders. Saw that pretty awesome cattleprod that engineer made. They'd give them guns loaded with simmunition and I doubt they'd go and kill random survivors for what they have, probably just use them to cap the Raiders.
I think those are warez, I think that's against the EULA on Gaia and could get you banned. Guild might get in trouble as well, not sure about that though.

Barru Maddness91 yay rapid share and such... there also torrents available almost everywhere... these are all rapidshare / other direct downloads... the first 2 are tested, the 3rd i got somewhere else...

I think those are warez, I think that's against the EULA on Gaia and could get you banned. Guild might get in trouble as well, not sure about that though. i wasn;t even thinking live ammo had to be involved... even if they gave them blanks, those are still dangerous (i.e. muzzle flash and ear damage) i still think there would be a big legal hassle and therefor wouldn;t be worth the risk... and low and behold, no guns were for sale anyways xd
are TV shows copyrighted? hmm, i guess they may be... i'll take off the links for now until some one says yes or a definite no...
for all that have gone to the 4th ep site, i think that sites will host the remaining eps as they get them... so no real need for me to post more links to the same site all the time...
