Just to point out to any long-serving unemployed, there's a shitload of jobs going for next year's census. cehck out http://www.censusjobs.co.uk and see what you got. You can only apply for one, btw. The job's not 'til march next year but it's still something to look forward to. They follow the double-tick scheme, which means if you have a mental/physical disability, you're guarenteed an interview. Only issue with this, of course, is if you find a job between now and then. Job hunting so far; either it's bar work, retail, demands experience or is too far away for me. Volunteering is the way forward to get that experience.

Yeah the hand thing was a bit silly. I think I'd rather just break my thumb then lop it off, y'know? He wasn't in the comic, was he? Think they're going to have him replace someone else in teh story?

Either zell did it, or cubr or peeps is lying, then. Vote: Zell

Damn your temptation, Empire Magazine Offer! Sorely tempted by this. Took some will-power to decline it. Will probably go back and get it later.

mmmm human beings

That's... wha.... I.... *cries*

I targetted myself, and my pm suggests I succeeded; I 'knocked myself out'. If peeps is truthful that he switched me and maddog, then we have a list of 3 people of which 1 must be the mafia killer. Unless he's lying. This whole 'room' nonsense should stop as it's ridiculous. So to clarify; I targetted jayseven last night. Peeps claims to switch targets, therefore surely I would've ended up targetting maddog. Which most certainly did not happen.

Wait -- cube's saying I'm definitely not mafia, and that's not good enough? Lol. Eenuh- honestly, this mafia is really confusing for me. I can't remember why I've assumed everyone is innocent on the list I posted a couple of pages back. Danny could be for being a 'vig', maddog could be for having a double vote, diageo could be for simply refusing to believe me forever and a day. To the point of FRUSTRATION. People won't post why they think THEY are innocent anymore, and all this sideswiping is just annoying.

http://www.copyrightservice.co.uk/protect/p16_photography_copyright Using their source photo is still using their copyrighted image. '5 changes' and that sort of malarky really applies to reshooting a similar picture, rather than editing an existing one. I'd say that you get your pal's promise of taking responsibility and liability in writing, but still I don't think ignorance of a law really stands up in any court. You can risk it, thinking you'll never get caught -- or just find a decent stock photo somewhere. I don't really know who to email about this -- http://www.cla.co.uk might be worth asking for advice, but who knows. Interesting subject!

Vote: Cube Duh.

Well we played some worms 2 and Castle Crashers - CC went down well until you get to the catfishboss thing in teh river. I've known it from previous playthroughs -- it's where the noobs will die and lose patence while I am left to kill it, or won't be arsed to play through again. Llama; I have beatle's rockband, but essentially this group of people is two able and experienced gamers and two... girls, who hold the controller wrong (use d-pad, steer with their whole arms) and have no experience whatsoever with gaming. But rockband will be our next attempt As for Left4 dead -- 2-player co-op. As was Peggle, which is annoying as it was probably the preferred game for everyone. Will probably look into that Viva Pinata Party Planet whatever game, or scene it, which I think I can get for £14 with the buzzers or £10~ without. Gotta say, Wii wins at this sort of market. Sure, Kinect is a solution -- but it's too expensive, and my room isn't big enoough to use it so I'd not get enough use out of it.

If it's between me and zell then clearly it's Zell. I've listed my targets for each nght repeatedly, and I'm the one saying we should all just spill the beans so we can decisively get rid of someone. It hurts my head. Zell and dannyboy are my main problems. Fact is we've not had many (any?) kills since danny came out as a killer. Regardless of what people think, he's surely still a suspect.

Did you have it with the buzzers or just using the pad? Contemplating getting Catan as well, despite owning the board game, just because it'll save me lugging all that stuff over with me!

Taking my console around a friends house. There'll be two guys and two girls. Any ideas? Castle Crashers is my default 4-player game, and similar ones like Scott Pilgrim and Streets of Rage probably won't cut the mustard with the girls. I can't think of any other 4-player games at all. Stuff like Halo and MW2 won't be appropriate either. I need 'fun' games, preferrably on XBLA so I don't have to go and buy something. Technically I've only got like two hours before I set out :P but it'll be interesting to hear any suggestions for further occasions, anyway! Just realised I also have Worms 1 and 2 and Peggle!

I'm not sorry for your loss. 'm just very fucking jealous. You speak of this dog (yet you do not name him, which is interesting considering this is the most personal post you've ever made on this forum) being someone more important than your family. To me, my family aren't what the world tells me famly should be. I never had that sort of attachment that you formed. I've known rats from birth to death and I've not shed a tear. I really do feel that you have experienced something that I have never encountered, and at my age, I never will. There was no pet to follow me through life with its static existence. I had no object to which I could project my evolution upon. To have a creature be with you through puberty, through your own transgression, and still be there is something fantastic, something I can never truly appreciate but only envy. I made a thread recently about crying. This thread -- your post brought me close to that. You stayed with someone who could not do anything else themselves and you showed them your love 'til their last hour, something that I can only hope will happen to me when I reach my death bed. While you may feel only sorrow and sadness, you must know that you did a noble deed -- must've sought recogniton of your actions by making this thread. While you come across as fairly sturmudgeon in your approach to the arts within this forum, or at least fairly steel-willed, I find it touching that you want to share this moment that has such importance to you with the rest of us. For this, I am thankful. It must've been a fairly harrowing experience, but, again, I have to stress that what you have done is something we all wish we could've done. While you will be grieving, you did the best you could in those final hours that your friend had, and despite any spirituality - I'm sure he is glad that you did so. Best wishes. O_W.

Hudsucker Proxy genuinely has my heart. Watched it when I was a young'un, and it's entrenched.

There's a neighbourhood cat that is welcome in our house. It likes to lick a certain chair. I will try and record this.

best backheel ever?

Dan 'Skid Marks' Dare?

Haters gonna hate. You can't beat this video, can you?

And if we run out of cider... then that's probably what started the apocalypse in the first place.

I didn't realise I was! Well we've already had a lynch bomb so I feel ok. Or at least I FELT alright. Now I'm all kinds of paranoid...

Let's get on with this. One maff down, two in the bag. Game over man, game over! Changevote: Ellmeister Bring it.

OT: I was thinking of doing a post-apocalyptic mafia for my next one, Jonnas, but as to which type of apocalypse... two of them :P

Only had one quit, and can do fine without him. I think the rule changes are to encourage managers to put out a more varied side - trying to prevent one from just playing their strongest team every game. Lost 2-0 to mcoy in the friendly, which i don't think was too bad. he had 9 chances, I only had two. It's going to be another defensive season as I try to get my strikers up to par. GULP!
