I started reading The Minds of Billy Milligan. It is a compelling and great book. I read from start to finish not putting it down.

I am currently reading "What are you currently reading?" over at the symthic.com forums.

It's alright.

I find majority of the complaints I hear about this game somehow never appear in my games.

I'm reading posts in a thread in which a mod is trolling a newbie for now apparent reason.

Joking aside, I'm reading Manifold: Origins by Stephen Baxter, The Confusion by Neal Stephenson, and the first Magical Girl Raising Project light novel. I haven't had much time to read recently, have probably only read a few hundred pages over the past 2-3 weeks.

A ook on platone, but it is outdatef(2009) so it's a bit disappointing.

"I'm just a loot whore."

stuff mostly unrelated to BF4 that interests nobody

Not really reading every-day-all-day but reading chapter at a time of "Reinforcement Learning: An Introduction".

Links to users' thread list who have made analytical/statistical/mathematical/cool posts on Symthic:

3VerstsNorth - Analysis of game mechanics in BF4 (tickrates, effects of tickrate, etc)
InterimAegis - Weapon comparisons/scoring.
leptis - Analysis of shotguns, recoil, recoil control and air drag.
Veritable - Scoring of BF4/BF1 firearms in terms of usability, firing and other mechanics.
pmax - Statistical analysis of BF4 players/games.
Miffyli - Random statistical analysis of BF4 battlereports/players and kill-distances. (list is cluttered with other threads).

Sorry if your name wasn't on the list, I honestly can't recall all names : ( . Nudge me if you want to be included

I don't read all that much, my attention span doesn't permit it. Currently waiting on the next Claymore novel though. Other than that, the lil' books that come in most metal CDs are usually very interesting

I have been reading "War with China: Thinking Through the Unthinkable" from the RAND Corporation.

Some months back during the summer, I also read two related reports on such hypothetical conflicts between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America. The first was about a war against the Republic of China and the second was about a war over the Paracel Islands.
