  1. Job woes/wins

    I use cans to and from work and buds in the office and I think you should too. Not sure what your working environment is like, does your job require a lot of frequent/ad-hoc communication with people sitting around you? If so, people will have to come up to you and poke/wave at you to get a response if you are wearing large, noise-cancelling headphones. It will also give off the impression that not only do you not want to be disturbed by anyone but that you are actively blocking out all sound, and by extension people, around yourself. People may think that you are anti-social, or people may be reluctant to come up and speak to you, which could be to your detriment. If you really need to focus and not be disturbed then fair enough, but you don't want to be seen like that all the time. In my case I work as part of a project team so there is always frequent discussion among the team during the day, so there's not a lot of opportunities to listen to music. When we do need to focus, we do put our buds in, so that we can still listen to others and easily remove the earpieces or put them back in when needed. Perhaps I'm over-thinking it, but yes I think it would be weird if you wore cans in the office. TL;DR cans will appear obtrusive and a bit anti-social compared to buds which are less noticeable, don't block out as much sound and are easier to remove / put back in whenever you need to talk to someone.

    Fluky GG shot I got in Trials last week.
  3. Destiny

    Didn't have the best of luck playing Trials yesterday, but had fun all the same. This about sums up our night: Having said that, I did have one pretty decent game.
  4. Destiny

    Yeah, I'm up for it. Will be available from around half 7.
  5. Never realised there were Smash events so close to where I live. If you ever plan on going again I'll come along as well. You're welcome to, though you might want to check what station you're getting in to because my house is a bit off the beaten track. You can if you get here early enough though we will most likely be gone by about 11-12.
  6. I live in Holloway, nearest tube is Caledonian Road (one stop up from King's Cross).
  7. The Friend Zone. Also Zone 2
  8. Alright, I've procrastinated enough, let's try to organise this... Friday Night: @Dannyboy\-the\-Dane @Shorty @Sheikah @Rummy (possibly) Saturday Night: @Dannyboy\-the\-Dane @Jimbob @Shorty @Sheikah Can people please confirm (those who haven't sent me PMs). Yeah mate, of course. I'm trying to get the Friday off work, so people can come round in the afternoon if necessary.
  9. Destiny

    Can't do tonight! Going to completely miss out on Xur selling those awesome goodies unfortunately.
  10. Destiny

    No it's not, what you on about?! I'm afraid I'm in Cardiff this weekend. I'm coming back Sunday afternoon so would be happy to do Trials then if you're around. Just realised that I haven't actually beaten Skolas yet! I've got 2 months to do it just the once in order to get the Year 1 emblem thing.
  11. Destiny

    Ask and you shall receive.
  12. I'm going to say 7 as my absolute max for people sleeping over. I have 2 sofas and a futon, plus a space in my room in a double bed. Everyone else would have to sleep on the floor. I will have to check on what my housemates are up to and confirm they're cool with me inviting over a bunch of weirdos from the internet , but they should be cool with it. You would be more than welcome, Danny.
  13. Yes of course. I may as well extend an invite to anyone cool who needs a floor/sofa to sleep on. I live in London now and have a pretty spacial living room so would be up for people coming over on the Friday or Saturday for drinks and shenanigans.
  14. Destiny

    Excellent! Shall we say half 8? (Don't really mind when to be honest, I'm around all day)
  15. Game of Thrones

  16. The Xpert Thread

    I have to admit, the start of the season came way earlier than I thought it would be and was pretty unprepared for it (not trying to make excuses for my lacklustre performance against @MilaGi!). Isn't there usually a month gap between seasons? I've scrapped investment in the youth academy as it was providing me with dross and became a drain on my finances. I know some of you have gotten some golden talents in the past (looking at you Peeps) but I feel more in control if I just venture into the transfer market myself.
  17. Job woes/wins

    So I have a Job Win and a Job Woe to share. The win is that my reward for the year was communicated to me yesterday - I'm getting a small pay rise and a sweet bonus which was way more than I expected. It's a nice vindication for all the hard work I've put in over the last two years.
  18. Destiny

    Anyone up for Trials of Osiris tonight?
  19. Destiny

    Hey Ed, sorry for the late response but I'm going to have to drop out. I feel rough as hell and don't think I'll be up for Destiny tonight. Maybe you could take Daft's place? @Deathjam @Shorty
  20. Destiny

    Been away on hols for a while. I came back late last night and have spent most of the day digesting E3 content. Liking the looks of the new subclasses. I totally predicted the Titan one, just hope it's viable in PvE content. Anyway, I should be online tomorrow. Up for whatevers, Prison of Elders or Nightfall anyone? Should be online around half 7.
  21. Xpert Eleven Season 35

    Well done dan, thoroughly deserved. To win it with three games to spare is also pretty special. I was hoping that I could make a difference to the title race at the end of the season, but I guess it will be a dead rubber now. The rest of us will need to step up our game next season!
  22. Destiny

    I don't mind dropping out since I have everything I need from Vault of Glass.
  23. Destiny

    I wouldn't mind making up the numbers!
  24. Destiny

    Absolutely, will be online tonight.
  25. Football Season 2014/2015
