It's the only honourable way out for a forum warrior.

Was also raised in this thread too. Maybe that will be their next idea, jack up the price to account for all their "losses" due to piracy.

Rather interesting day to start, exit the elevator and there's some dude standing RIGHT in front of the doors, he's just stepping in before I can get out. So ended up bumping him a fair bit with his coffee in his hand, heh. Either some people storming the elevators or people that walk out and then stop gazing around in bewilderment At least it's sunny outside!

Path of least resistance, yup.

Cheer up!

Nope he didn't, more of a rejection of a "well it could be worse" I guess. How did DRM messing with your playing get compared to losing a limb anyway. Although, some company losing theoretical sums of money due to piracy isn't that bad, when you think of it that way. Also, this is a rather amusing DRM - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-12-...s-sam-3-pirates

Laughing like hell at the football teams from Manchester, right now.

With built-in guns and motorized blades ?

Maybe trade schools will get more respect these days, they don't get as much as Universities here, heh.

Christmas party nearing so have to pick somethings from the menu, assuming we order from the normal menu and don't get some crap picked by the manager. Have a nice dish of ribs, one of the most expensive there too, heh. Generally a lousy day, overall though, haven't seen the sun in 3-4 days.

I'm averaging 3 or 4 a year. This year the majority has been stuff from GOG, heh.

I always wanted to see mercenary tourism in Somalia.

Plugging away at Ground Control as Major Bastila, am a bit sad that the Daredevils were KIA, serves me right for rushing to that evac point.

Vizime was fun for me, punctuated by that annoying swamp. If you quit after 20 minutes, I guess it'd just get worse for you though.

Gothic III now available

Well that's a decent rejection, heh. You never heard the argument that second-hand buyers are bad people for not giving their money to the developers ? It's pretty silly but people get their backs up about it.

No saved passwords in GOG Interesting little tidbit, wondered at how many answered like I did for that question on the survey.

Doesn't that class as abandonware, or is that just wishful thinking

Turned up some with a quick google, as well. Plenty of people are deal hunters, it seems.

I salute his dedication to the task.

Yep, but those aren't the pirates really, those are the leechers/pubs (they set up the torrents as well). Splitting hairs, I suppose.

Have done that in a school project, deadline was kinda close and we'd done zip for it, so I decided to just solo it, but eventually dragged in 50% of the team. Usually was the case in school for freezing out others (well was one group where they excluded one, but that was race, heh) not some sort of "you can't handle this, untermensch" attitude. Realized the client wants something hinted at in the spec (yay for craptastic project management) and that something is really, really, really nasty to implement. Have no idea on how to do this, so typical Monday, heh.

GOG Holiday promotion Empire Earth to be given away for free from the 12th to the 14th.

Hm, I dunno, the pirate groups always seem to be in their 30s (at least the ones busted - so they started late 20s or so I guess) and amusing amounts work in the software industry (which does make sense).
