Come on guys. Nobody wants to be a mod. That's just ridiculous talk.
Ahh. I know where you mean. Haven't had any need to go into Belmont/Geelong recently. At least the rowing equipment wouldn't be ruined when it does get flooded, or I'd expect that to be the case for the most part.Shaneus said:
Also, I barely post in here, but people can add me on steam if they want. My id is the TheFuuury, or just go into AusGAF and look for Mutiny! Mainly play L4D2 and on occasion Killing Floor and Goldeneye Source. Will probably give TF2 another go once I download some massive update.

It's an alright game. Reminds me of Kula World, except instead of collecting all the fruit, you're making ilo and milo dance together. There's unskippable bits (in the demo) which pissed me off, but the visuals and cutesyness are amazing.
Happy Birthday Syth! I didn't know you were HolyCheck.
For those that care, the Australian Open is coming round this year, and to help the Queensland Floods, some of the players are playing a charity match which is livestreamed here. It's a lighthearted game, so it should be good and funny 
Unless there's a Australian Open thread already, or mentioned in the QLD thread in OT, then yeah. Should be good.

Merry Birthmas, Syth!
I always thought the reason that the admins allowed AusGAF to have its own little community was to keep an eye on us.evlcookie said:
Isn't a little wierd that there's no other country sub-community, like German or French GAF? I think there is more of them posting on here than Australians.
I wonder if we are a tad bit too insular having our own little community to discuss local events?
Pre AusGAF thread, Aussie gaming news used to fall off the front page pretty quickly causing a lot of people to miss news that was potentially a big deal to a small number of people. Unless that thread veered into talking about beer which would keep it on the front page for longer.
The UK, US and Japan have enough followers that any decent news will have a multipage thread pretty quickly. They have their own bargain threads too, and Japan has weekly sales threads which are pretty much an institution. AusGAF was born out of a bargain thread. Started by Cheesy iirc.
Threads do get started for big news that the wider community might be interested in. Censorship and so forth.

The CBD didn't cop much flooding overall. Some buildings that are the in the very low areas. 95% of the CBD is back and operational. Its a little quiet as there aren't many at the shops and what not, but just about everyone will be back at work today.jambo said:
Now wednesday, the place was eerily quiet. I came and did a half days work, and it was just empty. Some Cafe's / restaurants were open, with a few people there (presumably tourists stuck here). But it's the first time i've seen ALL the shops closed during the day. was weird.

So I've been told to stay home because the computer servers won't come back online until Wednesday.
I'm bored :\

Friend of mine used to work in a net cafe in the mall. Can't remember what it was called, but you had to go up some stairs to get to it.giri said:
The local net Cafe's, if they were ever going to survive, needed to promote more internet cafe competition. ie. one cafe vs another sort of thing. Giving people a reason to go there other than "mum doesn't see me leet skillz, so won't let me play at home".Agyar said:
Oh and they needed to not reak (sp?) of B.O.
Seriously, the bunker was an affront to the senses to go into.
Cyber Room was my old stomping ground. The amount of money I spent there playing BF1942/Desert Combat, I could have put into a better PC. Went by the handle of Pussywillow (taken from Ned Flanders line in this classic episode) as it was one of the few FPSs I was competent at competitively and it was delightful to hear comments yelled out by strangers like "Fie on you, Pussywillow! or more bluntly - "Fuck you, Pussywillow" after racking up a string of kills.
It was a funny place back in the heyday - youd get a lot of homeless guys come in and watch porn and the general LAN-party feel to the place when it was at its peak cant be matched.
Then WoW happened.
