  1. MAJORITAH HAS BEEN REACHED. DETAILS TO FOLLOW.
  2. VOTESINGS Cube: (6) Magnus Peterson, The Peeps, Mr-Paul, Sheikah, Yvonne
  3. It did? Well shit. Sowwie everyone. I could've put the mixers through and then ID'd them afterwards, but that'd equal to more of a ballache for me when the booze is refused - I suppose it might inconvenience them as well ¬_¬
  4. NIGHT ONE ENDS. Due to the amazing confusion Cell had place on everyone, there was no real organisation in the way of the peoples' actions. A pirate fled on his ship. A shadow prowled unseen through the night. A card shark eyed up his opponent. A traveller and a reporter found themselves with nothing to do. However in the land of the dead, Beetlejuice was flipping through the employment section - the obituaries. Finding a tasty job which was just too good to pass up he travelled to the human world to offer his services as the greatest bio-exorcist that ever lived. However it was a trap. When he revealed himself and presented his business card he found himself caught in an exorcism. Banished to the land of death for the dead. @Mr\-Paul @The Peeps @ReZourceman @Esequiel @DuD @Diageo 12 REMAIN. MAJORITAH IS SEVEN. BEGIN.
  5. S'what I meant, when I said valid form I meant from Tesco's not so rigid list. I didn't stop her from buying the mixers (did I say I did? :S). I used it as evidence to fist her argument that she wasn't going to drink any of the following purchasers of alcohol. But after I refused the sale of the alcohol to her friends she suddenly didn't want all that cranberry juice.
  6. I see it. No way Arkham City deserves 5 stars.
  7. It's not that they're being a stickler, it's that it'd be against the law to accept it as a valid form of ID. Sure, it may be seen as nitpicking when buying alcohol/tobacco. But if you need ID for something more official I wouldn't be surprised if they stuck to it more rigidly.
  8. How many times does a passport need renewing?
  9. Because it needs renewing as it has expired. It's like membership to any club/whatever, if you have an out of date card it won't be accepted. The same applies to national ID. Would you expect your bank card to work after the expiry date? Of course not.
  10. This is a really weird gray area where discretion can come into place. At Tesco we're only allowed to accept "valid" ID, which normally extends to a passport, valid drivers license and ID with a PASS logo on it. But we've accepted so many different kinds of ID (mainly due to the amount of foreign students we have here), even a passport which was out of date (discretion here, yes it shows that the person is old enough but it's out of date = not a valid form of ID = shouldn't really be accepted)
  11. I don't think it's that bad personally. It's the same sense of satisfaction when you have to refuse a sale of alcohol/tobacco to someone who you know isn't old enough and they know full well they're not allowed it. Just because it's a video game it shouldn't make any difference. To an extreme comparison it's almost like taking comfort that someone who has broken the law gets punished. I don't think it's wrong to find enjoyment that someone is going to prison for something they know is wrong and tried to get away with it. One time I had a group of students try and be sneaky with buying alcohol, they came in a group. The first one had a shitload of cranberry juice and other mixers and it was clear that she wasn't buying all of that to maintain regularity. So I do what I always do in these situations and ID everyone straight away and get it all sorted beforehand. Naturally she didn't have ID and swore she wasn't going to drink any of the many bottles of spirits her friends were purchasing. When confronted with the fact that she was buying all these mixers she went silent and I told them all that if she didn't have ID that I would refuse the sale as they would be buying alcohol and providing it to someone who hadn't proven their age. Which I am obliged to do. The alcohol purchasers went to 'put them back' but less than five minutes later they had the same bottles and went to the checkout directly opposite me. I went over to the other checkout and told them they weren't having any of it. They tried to trick the system, fucked up and got called on it. There's no way I wasn't going to feel satisfied after that.
  12. VOTES: SILLY RANDOM ONES. MAJORITAH NOT REACHED. DIAGEO HAS ENTERED THE ARENA. THE GAME MAY HAVE CHANGED. NIGHT ONE BEGINS. @Mr\-Paul @The Peeps @ReZourceman @Esequiel @DuD @Diageo SEND IN YO' SHIT. DAY ONE BEGINNETH IN APPROX 24 HOURS... Let's say about 11ish tomorrow night.
  13. Seems I forgot to tag you properly in the sign up topic. I suppose I could squeeze you in?
  14. 1. @Mr\-Paul knows that feel bro. 10. @The Peeps has the real feel. 11. @ReZourceman wants his feel caught on reel. 12. @Esequiel has a tingling anus. Shamelessly copied from sign up thread. Cell had sent his minions their identity information. Now it was time for the fun to begin! PM'S ARE BEING SENT OUT NOW.
  15. Took @Goafer's costume idea and stole it.
  16. Corrected. ¬_¬
  17. Diageo @Dannyboy\-the\-Dane None of you got the feels? Game shall begins sometime tomorrow.
  18. I was also surprised when it arrived. It normally only gets delivered months later, after I've forgotten about it and when it arrives I get worried that I ordered something from Amazon when drunk and forgot about it.
  19. What is the giraffe thing? I've noticed some people on the friends list have their picture changed to the same giraffe. Does that mean something good?
  20. DOES NOONE ELSE HAVE THE FEELING?! or a tingling anus like Esequiel?
  21. They're awesome. Your tongue aches for days after due to biting it and it hurts like hell getting food out your teeth... actually, they're not so great. As long as you don't fall a fair bit and hit something hard, it's normally a good day. And as long as you keep obstacles out of the way [tables etc] it's best to just let them fit it out.
  22. Even though he said City would be his last - is Skywalker still the Joker?
  23. During GameCity last week I recorded these power lunch things they were streaming live on the Guardian site when it was on (1pm) and then I uploaded it when I got home. I did this from Monday-Saturday. Today I'm being told that there was some closed media policy which wasn't mentioned anywhere and I have to take the videos down. If there's something like that I can vaugely understand. But I haven't been subtle about filming it, it's not as if I've been filming in the back of a cinema. I've been at the front each day, phone on table positioned nicely, lifting it up to focus on the TV screens if they've shown a trailer in front of all to see. No one has said one fucking word about it. Each day I uploaded it, tagged the presenters/the festival/the location/the guests and haven't heard a word to me about it not being allowed, asking my intentions or asking for it to be taken down. And that's what's really pissed me off about this whole thing. I've sent a weak permission asking thing to the Guardian and an email to some other chap asking what length is acceptable as "posting full videos = not fine", because it took me fucking ages sorting those videos out and I'm not just going to break down straight away without some chance for compromise. Not sure how long they'll be able to stay before I break to the pressure, so please check them out before it's too late! http://www.derek-wheatley.com
  24. Cella had been enjoying his popcorn as he sat watching his favourite classic films. His loyal DVD collection by his side. The Woman in Red approached him, "Fucks sake woman, can't you see I'm watching a film? Make another TV show mafia. It should be done by the time the film's finished." "I already have one, but the people want you." "No shit." Putting the film on pause he stood up and took a massive intake of breath. Cell gobbed out sixteen Cell Jnr's "Bring them in." Cell commanded. The Woman in Red left the room and brought in sixteen N-E members, gagging for action. "Off you go." The Cell Jnr's jumped into the DVD collection and assimilated what they wanted from a film. "In you go." The lil Cells leapt into the mouths of the N-E volunteers. 1. CUBE IS FEELING IT. 2. YVONNE HAS SO MANY FEELS. 3. Sheikah wants to sign up. 4. Jimbob is having the feeling. 5. Dedede has the feel. 6. Magnus Peterson wants me to shut up and take his feel. 7. DuD has more than a feeling. 8. Rummy feels it coming in the air tonight. 9. Mr-Paul knows that feel bro. 10. The Peeps has the real feel. 11. ReZourceman wants his feel caught on reel. 12. Esequiel has a tingling anus. 13. 14. 15. 16. ARE YOU FEELING IT?! [Regular mafia shit applies unless stated otherwise]
