Shorty

Ah Svt, good luck in everything. You're one of the few people who I remember from when I first joined - I even remember your sig, and I think only you, Jav and Jim had sigs that I can still remember. I believe it contained "and then he opened his arms and died for me" - a little too religious for my tastes - but it showed your sincerity and unwavering morals. Of course from time to time you would be given the lockinator king title, as you denied us access to such great threads as "Am I the only female?!" - but in the end it only helped add to the memories. Personally, I'll probably never leave until I don't remember a single remaining face from when I first joined. Admittedly that date is drawing closer and closer - but for nostalgia's sake I'll be clingy a little longer. Thanks for being a great admin have fun in life and come back and see us from time to time.

Ouch, harsh card! I'm kinda glad I haven't got my name on the list - not sure its worth the risk of the slaughter :p

I've never found torrents 'faster' than anything - personally. Once I'll really max out on the down speed and it will last and all will go well, but it seems fairly rare. P2P is nearly always fast, if you pick files with a decent amount of users, but there's so much crap to sift through. The average P2P program will try to claim that a user is offering a full DVD image of some movie that hasn't been released yet at 750kb.

Ah Pokemon. Back in the days when you were good. Or I was dumb enough to think you were.

Zorro's the movie Bruce Wayne bugged his father to see that indirectly cost his parents' lives. I really liked the old Zorro movies, and the first Banderas movie, when I was younger, but I was put off this one by the stupidity of some of Bandaras' comments. "I play the legendary Zorro in... the... legend of Zorro" "Zorro is like... a modern day Robin Hood" Modern. Right.

Well, I've already heard plenty of Hot Hot Heat, and I give them a 7.5/10 for being fun and catchy, but not really my thing. I return your serve with Rise Against.

*sighs* what a masterful game. So much to do, so few days to do it in. I wish I had my n64 over here!

Yes. LALALLALALLALALALLALALALALA

For the first time ever I actually have decent TV. Over here I have DirecTV sattelite and a TiVo - so even if nothing's on (very unlikely) - my TiVo has probably taped something worth watching

No, no. Arguing because you can't say swearwords is childish.

Obviously the winner is never going to pay up - why would anyone bid that much when you can get the system for half the price brand new? Someone probably did it just so that they could send an email saying 'ha, ha, you thought you were going to make a bunch of money from some sucker, but now you're just left with listing fees'.

I don't have that latter problem - but I do have the issue of getting an idea for something big, and making anything of it. Every big novelist probably did though.

Thanks for the link - I have been trying to figure out the url for ages :P

Your watts are the amps x volts. Even I remember that from GCSE Physics.

Can some draw up a graph to show how long it would take, theoretically, for Microsoft to go bankrupt.

GAME has been downhill for a long time. It was good in the early days of Electronics Boutique, good deals, good overall prices, lots of low cost second hand games, good trade-in prices... now they never have the best price. I never shop at GAME because online prices are always better.

Yeah but I heard Xbox Magazine is biased to Xbox. There will never be balance!

Ok I guess I just got NFS (need for speed) in my head. Blame it on scotoma I'll get my coat.

Must have a disgusting amount of money to throw around!

I tend to use SVCD2DVD but... next time I need something from my PC onto a DVD (as soon as I get DSL back) - I'll give your program a try

I think most people use Ctrl+Alt+Delete to close applications and processes that they can't simply bring up - otherwise they would just use the little 'x' right? Typically I use ctrl+alt+del to close crashing programs and background apps.

Living at my girlfriend's - so here's her PC Pentium (ugh - I miss my own computer) 3.06Ghz 512MB RAM (considering 1.5GB upgrade) Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Heatsink model (mine) 111GB HDD 1 DVD-rw/rom and 2 virtual drives A terrible dial up modem A Westell 6100 router for a DSL connection that doesn't work yet Again with the *missing own computer* point.

Yes, but I don't think they look bad - personally I didn't find the freckles the main problem - there was just another issue that I can't place. I'll have my creative-art-boffin friends look over it for an explanation :P Edit: btw, it's been bugging me - what's NFSW?? I checked acronymfinder.com to no avail. I keep thinking "Need for Speed -- something".

Bright Eyes are amazing and I can't believe I missed the Clash off my list

I hate when games have an ending like OoT, when you've watched it you have to reset, then your save continues from before beating the last boss. I'd rather be able to wander the world after saving it - with people saying new things Like in ToS.
