  1. Do what i do, it does sometimes work. Had one of them delivery notes pop through the door. I opened the door as the guy was at the end of the street. Ended up chasing him up the road. He said even though he hit the quota for the day, i could have the package still. It was in the van he was heading back to. I've also had arsey postmen, who did knock on the door. But as it does happen, i was in the lavatorium (it happens when expecting a package, will he come now, or now. Oh, i'll risk it). I happened to get to the door as he was 1/2 way through filling the form in. Package in his hand as well, and upon asking for the package/letter the note was referring to, he refused and said pick it up from the depot. By the time the postman had got to my house anyway, the depot was closed. Had to wait until the next day to get it, and left a nice complaint with them as well.
  2. I don't use GAME. Yes, i know it sounds iffy with the fact that Skyward Sword was ordered with themselves. I had ordered a batch of games with GAME (including Skyward Sword), but they cancelled all my X-360 orders after Gears 3. Couldn't cancel any orders, so left the orders there. All cancellation emails came through as expected, except for Skyward Sword. Which came through as accepted payment. Which caused me to go nuts and express choice words to GAME's customer service department. Who blamed my bank for the payment not being issued, and the bank blamed GAME. Because like flameboy, they said they authorised the payments but GAME decided to not take payment. I think they didn't want to sell me the game at the reduced price THEY set. I bank with HSBC. Have done for many years and had no problems with them. They've been great with service, explained everything to me and all that.
  3. Wonder if GAME will rekindle themselves with me and have it at mine today, highly doubt it mind. Both GAME and my bank are blaming each other for the mishaps i've had with GAME. They say the banks fault, the bank say it is GAME's fault. Can't win can i.
  4. EHow has a section on spider graphs which can help you here Edit: Cheers @Rummy, i knew there was a whitty joke there somewhere.
  5. Cool, it's a little different using Robin in the challenge maps. Makes it more fun with all the guards who think Robin ain't good enough. Havn't heard of that yet, i'm at 79% so nearly at that point.
  6. I seriously need to upgrade my weaponry and magic skills. Everytime i go near the giants, i get wiped out within 1 punch. And i barely do any damage to them. I used some of my money to talk to a mage to assist me with acquring better powers/skill. I'm not a full mage, i am 1/2 mage and 1/2 warrior. Use powers and an axe to take down my foes. And once they are down, i pillage them for everything of value. Some might say i have an "interesting" approach. I say i need the gold to purchase property.

    50/50

    Wasn't this a TV show back in the 90's/early 00's??.
  8. Congrats Murr, glad everything went well.
  9. I'm sure we can top-up the ale-ment we have brewed up here. (i'll leave now)
  10. Had it since Saturday, i can give this opinion so far
  11. I see we got to the root of the problem here
  12. Or, leave yourself on the horse and fast travel. Horsey doesn't vanish then, well not as long as i've done this. They are stupid though, had to reload my game because my horse decided by itself to run into a dragon and kill itself. Am i really that bad of an owner??
  13. Don't ask, ya don't get. Well in a case, don't ask and sometimes you get.
  14. She has an original song (or two) on the album, forget what it is called though.
  15. Something to watch-out for
  16. If there are still lines available, i'm more than happy to take some off your hands. And, as a special treat. I am thinking about doing the entire song for a bit of fun. Could be a few days on that though.
  17. Original is by Fleet Foxes. I listened to both versions on the way into work this morning. The original, in my opinion now, doesn't have the same feeling compared to Birdys version. It is still good, i have no doubt about that.
  18. I think it's because of the sheer amount of information the game requires to run causes the staggering. I know my game locked out as i was entering a town after defeating a dragon, so i had to reload and lost that progress. Other than that little hic-cup, i've had no other issues at all. My character is one from the south. Majoring in 1 handed weaponry and magic, with the occasional use of archery. Using a lot of Nord weaponry atm, because it looks great. I should upgrade to a better sword, the enemies are starting to get tougher now. Missions are varied, and i like that.
  19. The first Creed had the right idea, just implemented it in a way which was tedious to me after the 2nd target. Basically "pickpocket, interrogate, evesdrop" before going for the target felt tedious to me. The way Ubi did II and implemented it into Brotherhood and Revelations is, in my opinion, better than the 1st. Missions had/have variety to them compared to the 1st. I do have intentions to play the original again, it's a case of as and when.
  20. Contract has been extended past March until September 2012. I suppose it is a good thing, means i've got employment until the end of September 2012. Until........ (click to see)
  21. Following on from the good thread. The bad side is, i hate contact centre work. Talking to whiney, moany people who always have an attitude with you. They never listen, they are rude and all that. No wonder people quit work here on a near-weekly basis. Also, with management contradicting everything that was done, people failed quality checks even after being told the call was correct. I was unchallenged in that line of work and felt like a robot doing it. Which means, job searching is now in order to find a replacement job. Oh, it will also mean that if i am still in HMRC in July, i won't be able to go to London for the you know what (if we do one that is). I was barely able to go last time.
  22. I do yes. (Please don't ask for a rebate, i don't work on that side)
  23. I know AC-II had a different way of going about being an assassin. Yes, it wasn't the same as the first title. But it did have the stealth element and the discovering about the target, just took a different approach about it.
  24. I'm going to be addicted to this version of the song, even though i've heard the original many times. Got this song downloaded for free, there was a link in the description for it. Going to see what the rest of the album is like. I am considering downloading it.
  25. What was that........... Sorry, but the fast show should not be revived like this. It was nowhere near on-par with the classic show, even though many of the actors/stars were present, it didn't feel like the fast show at all. Probably since it was missing Englebert Humpledink. Oh, and the original magic as well. Chanel 9 is ruined, where was the tacky-ness of it.
