I love Kamelot, they're awesome - I miss Roy Khans voice but the new guy is good aswell. They've done some amazing songs, I still remember first time I heard The Epica album is a masterpiece, me and my mate sat in his room listening to the album with our jaws on the floor, just amazed by the composition. Not to forget, Epica was inspired by Kamelot aswell, and they do some pretty nice pieces, Consign to Oblivion and Phantom Agony are really good aswell.

We've had about 25C today, and it's going to be warmer yet tomorrow. It's frickin' May and it's already sweltering summer heat. Why can't I just live in the arctic?

I've got a mate of mine that has about 15million gold, the little AH manipulator that he is. Should probably ask him about it and see if it is possible.

Saw in the news that one of our lorries crashed on the way to our depot an hour ago. I got a really weird feeling to know what driver it is from just looking at the trailer.

First I was like "Huh? You drunk, mate?" then I was like and now I'm like **** that noise.

*Hides all Hammerfall T-shirts*

My sympathies, majestic.

WTF?

Annoying day at work today, and some weird weather. About 15C and loads of fog, about 15-20m visibility and almost crashed three times when white lorries drove out of the mist. Driving to work was arduous aswell, had an average speed of about 50-60 at times when the fog was at it's thickest.

Sauce?

Iirc my father had to wait two months to get his cataract surgery, my mother got her chemo for arthritis pretty quickly aswell.

That just blew my mind. My friend got his treatment in 24 hours, the problem lies not in public healthcare but where they've chosen to put their funding. That is the sad truth. While everyone does have a right to free healthcare, people have to take a number... Almost every doctor in the government healthcare system has a private clinic and that private clinic lets you skip the ticket machine (they even use government facilities to do the procedures). Usually, the people who have an urgent issue get pushed up the line, but that again depends on how old you are and other factors. This is mindblowing to me, they're using government facilities for their private clinics? Sounds more like a scam to me.

There's one American car that I really want, it's owned by a guy relatively nearby that I buy my tyres from, it's a Ford Galaxie 500/Ford LTD that my father used to own... Trying to persuade the owner to let me buy it if he's going to sell it. It's the only thing I can imagine taking a bank loan for.

This is possibly the best news I've ever read in a Politics thread!

It was probably because you posted a picture of your wife, there was too much jealousy after that I suppose.

Ended up playing Mutant Chronicles for two days, was loads of fun. The world is similar to Warhammer but is entirely focused on our solar system and it's less grimdark and more 80's/90's action like in it's tone. We ended up being only two players though, wich was kind of dissapointing, but it was fun nonetheless.

No problem, my pleasure There are some real gems in 5e, I love how the classes have built in prestige branches, scaling of spells and that you don't have to invest in less than interesting feats to build up to the real gems.

On a personal note; I dislike it, but I'm particular they say. So I'm a bit biased towards old 3.5e. It's quicker and easier, the classes (Druids and clerics are still stupid powerful.) are generally speaking more fun, spells are more balanced; Cantrips scale with your level, so attack cantrips are almost always useful, you can push your spells with higher slots for more duration/damage or targets, the feats are more useful and balanced but more rare; but some are very much more useful than others, and sometimes just plain needed to play your character effectively. (Constitution saves are used instead of a skill to maintain focus on a spell, wizards, warlocks, bards, clerics and druids don't get constitution save bonuses unless you pick a feat) Skills are more boring now, you no longer allocate points, you have a proficiency bonus wich increases slightly with level, so you have to use one of the rare feats if you want to expand your portfolio. You can still use non-class skills, but you're limited to your abilityscore, so if you feel your Wiz needs some points in diplomacy you're SOL until you get a level with an Ability Score Bonus; Either raise attributes by two points or pick a feat. So your characters are more stiff. That said, you've got more options to chose skills when you create that character, just make sure you pick the right stuff. Monsters don't have any scaling mechanic anymore, so if you want a really badass orc chieftain you have to improvise. There might be more, nothing pops up right now, I'm a bit to tired from work.

Right at this moment, we're running DnD 5e, I'm running one freeform campaign (Wich was originally played in 3.5E but all the players nagged me into switching over) with some inspiration from NWN2 and I'm reading through Princes of the Apocalypse to prepare for that later. I've got one Warhammer40K Only War campaign I'm running, and I'm writing an campaign for Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader. I've got Shadowrun on my table aswell, but my players are severely disillusioned by the system itself. I've got one campaign going for a Swedish game called Neotech(Cyberpunk) and I'm writing one for Eon(Low-Medium fantasy) from the same company. The "main" GM is running Storm Kings Thunder - wich we are currently focusing on-, Curse of Strahd and Out of the Abyss, a Vampire campaign, Dark Heresy, The written adventures for Rogue Trader and Only War. One campaign for Eon wich is on hold I think (Since his ex had one of the central roles). And he also holds the Mutant Chronicles campaigns. He also holds an On/Off Star Wars campaign. His girlfriend is prepping for the Tyranny of Dragons campaign, it's going to be her first foray into GM'ing. So... alot of systems! I've missed some probably, that's just what I can remember on the top of my head. We've got dozens of systems that we're running, my personal favourite is the old Eon/Neotech(Different settings, same system), but noone else likes them. Eon/Neotech DnD 3.5 DnD 5 Mutant Chronicles Warhammer 40k Vampire StarWars 3.5e I'm going to have to look through our bookshelf to remember the rest XD

Got beer and pen and paper RPG's tomorrow, looking forward to that immensly after working these long weeks. Working extra plus ordered overtime is awful, but there is a payoff coming in two weeks. ^^

I'm going to count the cold that hit me like a brick at work today as the third.

Edit fail...

I just hope the next one doesn't involve my car. Oh yeah, and I've gotten confirmation that I'm going to be bumped up to 100% (Fulltime) employment from 1'st of June until 31'st December, meaning I won't get an "overtime stop" once I'm about to get the really nice dough. Every time they order overtime I'm going to get twice(~300sek/h) the hourly wage instead of "extra time"(~150SEK/h) pay.

I'm beginning to think I'm hexed or something, a lorry driver drove into my tug today at work...

That's about the same level I'd say, but the one that said Dune is a POS book; Y'all need to start an office collection for a bounty...
