Thanking your post for the understanding, R_A, not out of some sadistic impulse Work phoned me back at half 12 and said I have work next week, and I later found out that three other people have been told that tomorrow is their last day, so I'll basically be the last temp in the building :S Bit gutted because two of them made work enjoyable and they won't be there monday, and I won't be there friday, so can't say g'bye. @Wesley I've genuinely spent non-internet time worrying about you recently.

To be honest, when you win a game 4-0 and it's bad news then you know you can't blame that game at all. Harry can't be disappointed with the performance on the night at all. Bonus question that I could probably google but can't be bothered; Birmingham's Rooney is totally unrelated...?

Apologies for lateness in accepting the game. Tea Cup Final Showdown all set! I need to win 2-0! Fat chance!

Grey haired man and the red-haired woman (weakest link?) appear to be our suspicious people. Red-haired seems to have been the blocked kill, here.

Been off work all week because of a chest infection, which I didn't want to spread in the office and which makes the prospect of talking for 7 hours straight on the phone to people not only daunting but borderline ridiculous. Called to say I wouldn't be in today and they've given me the prep to being let go over the phone... I'm a temp so they can basically do as they please. I appreciate that 5 days off is hard for any company to cover, especially when I've been pretty much carrying the shitty campaign we were working on. Mixed feelings, but I was going to finish at the end of next week anyway (they don't know this, but they know I'm going to Oz...) - this may just mean that I'll miss out on the xmas party!

Work do is thursday 22nd, they've given us friday off paid. It's upstairs at a nice pub, with free food and free drinks all night! However it's also the only evening the 'Four Amigos' get together -- that's me and three long-standing mates. One's coming down from huddersfield for xmas but I'm going over to bournemouth for the same time. There's one circle of friends having a meal tonight but I've opted out as I don't feel 100%, and another circle are doing something... at some point... but I can't remember when. After work this saturday I'll be going straight to an xmas party, which'll be knackering but fun, I'm sure!

I reverse tracked diageo and got that he was targetted by cube and heroijan. Nobody else. He died. So one of these two did the killing. Pretty simple!

Then I think heroijan's explanation for last night is certainly the weakest. He claims to be able to, basically, protect people. He claims that he targetted diageo. He thinks that someone messed with this -- specifically dannyboy? I htink this is a nonsense defense. I think that heroijan is making shit up. I think that it makes sense to lynch heroijan. If it's wrong then cube did it. It's really straghtforward. Voting patterns will be noticed.

I targetted diageo to see who else would target him. I got cube and heroijan as others that targetted him. Having read other posts, I think jonnas makes one point that makes me wonder -- would yvonne still consider Heroijan's target as diageo even if his target had been changed by dannnyboy? Dannyboy has to clear this up. Either cube or heroijan killed diageo, that much is clear.

Ahyes I would've been thinking about the Hanger. Fairly sure I didn't play 1, and I couldn't remember the name of that level

It's one of you two. I'm sure of it.

Your parents aren't expecting to to pass with flying colours. Of course, they hope that their child is the best child in the universe, but they love you unconditionally and just want you to be happy. Once you start believing that you start working for yourself rather than trying to reach the potential goals of others, or stress about that. You're a smart guy, man. You'll be fine, mentally as well Take some time out maybe?

Wesley it's the middle of the day in the middle of the week... You alright

forgot to set tactiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiics played my weakest keeeperrrr nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I think it's more likely that one of the two in teh room already killed diageo, and the third man saw who was in the room, while the two in the room already did not necessarily see who else was tehre. Cube has admitted he was in the room and I'd like to identify who else was in the room before he gets persecuted. I also want to hear heroijan reply to my post when he's online. Double post. Ah! Good timing! Vote: heroicjanitor. Including myself, three people targetted diageo last night. I am the third man. I saw that diageo was targetted by cube and heroicjanitor. Cube was quick to come clean, heroijan's trying to shift focus onto the other death.

Dudes. THPS 1 and 2 were fab - basically platformers on a skateboard. Was it warehouse where you could just about do the whole level in one run if you were good enough? I'd love to get this - soundtrack would concern me, and whether they stick with the original gap checklists or go apeshit crazy and try to add too much. Skater list is far less important for me - but there needs to be spiderman in there somewhere... and the bail videos! Aaaah nostalgia attack!

You've endured a lot of mental stress in a relatively short period of time. It's fairly easy to overthink the situation and find yourself worrying about the minute detail. The more exams and the more essays you do, the more relaxed you'll be both about what you are capable of and what is expected of you. You're right about learning to deal with the stress, and you're right to type it out on here. You will gain perspective - if you go into every exam or essay thinking it's the most important in the world, you will suffer from the panic. If you realise that before you finish uni you'll have done probably a hundred essays/exams (or 50 or whatever), so was each individual one truly that important? You will fail something, you will excel at something else. Chin up!

From the video description alone I know I don't want to watch it. Added a spoiler tag, just for extra precaution.

What makes you say 4 people targetted diageo? One person enters a room with 3 people, including diageo's dead body = 4 people. Three targetted diageo. Where's teh 4th come into it? Who did you target last night? Roleblocker down. Ice-cream killer needs to chiiiilll!

Oh, man, yeah! For some reason I'd gotten all confused at some point and thought a pint was 360ml! Stupid post-midnight maths.

It's basically a pint of whiskey each, with a small shot on the side -- not exactly advisable! Timescale makes it doable (I've shared a ~750ml bottle of gin with a friend on a few occasions) ... hope you've learned some good things and had a chance to spout shit, and regret nothing in the morning. Just down some water before you go... And as you're in US timezones and perhaps you're still going... then stop now and thank me later.

I still need to learn how to do the whole dev thing. Fairly gutted (as always) at no double jumps and barely any visibles -- my team tends to play one or two bars above their skill week-in week-out they just care not to put it down on paper and make it official. BLEH.

I did indeed purchase the game, perhaps foolishly. I was enjoying it to a point -- the level with lava was great fun. I spent at least 30 mins just fucking about with it. But the problem is that there's no real learning curve as such - for instance, the very first part of the game it didn't tell me (or perhaps I missed it) how precisely to pick up earth. There's no real 'tutorial', instead each level so far seems to have an entirely different focus, and generally it's quite punishing. I think you're meant to have patience and just work through each one, but not having the ability to say exactly how the tribespeople get from a to b, for example, means sometimes a couple will go round the long way, and then drown because your tower power's run out. Bastion was so well put together that it's a bit of a shock to the system. I'm very surprised you only used one weapon (fang repeater? Slays like a boss!). I really thought I was going to do the same but I had maybe 4-6 weapons I'd switch about, routinely. I didn't use the bow or spear very much, though. The vigils mostly occur naturaly if you use all the weapons, and using the Who Knows Where you can quickly get them.

You gotta go back to it, man. Just did the run through on new game plus in about 3 hours to get the last two achievements. Joy of a game! The complaints to be had can be that the game was essentially too easy once you got the potions and weapons strong enough to just stroll through enemies, but the experience in general made it worth it. Sequel with co-op, plz. From Dust next!

Finally got round to getting Bastion thanks to @Shorty's points as an early xmas gift! I've basically played it loads all weekend, finished the story and found it was an absolute joy to play - the hack n' slash wasn't too tricky, and the whole presentation and story-telling was beautiful. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Started my new game plus, and racing through it like a badass. There were a couple of the proving grounds that I simply could not do -- the cael[something?] hammer, the pistols and the shield (I'm sure there was another), but there's no achievement to be attained for doing all of them. Checked a few people on my friends list and was surprised to see that not everyone seems to have completed it. Why not? I also have 1200ish points spare and don't know what xbla game to get next. Was considering the Prince of Persia HD thing as I remember playing the original a bit as a kid. Anyone tried it?
