Curious, what happened last time? Didn't it work out? I remember seeing one and thought about going but was in another state so I didn't pay attention to it.
like that?
Very nice!
I need some people tosubmitvolunteer to provide me with some Log files from my little Steam Cat application. Basically I have it loading all various pieces of data I require, minus a couple small things, but I need some others to run it and save an xml log file and return it to me for some error / verification purposes.
Also a bit of extra testing doesn't hurt.I have suppressed all the save functions until I am happy with them, so you can't damage your data/steam install etc.
Anyone interested, chuck me a PM.

That makes it okay then, stupid commentators.
You should have watched yesterday when Henri Leconte was commentating the Tsonga match.
You know what a nose bleed means in anime/manga...
WHAT KIND OF MANGA WERE YOU WRITING ABOUT JINTOR!
Tomic can learn a lot from hewitt
hewitt never ever gives up even at match point. Credit to the nation and whilst he was a dick at times, he seems to have turned that around
That said, that should be his last match at Melbourne Park. He has proven to the world he can still match it, but he won't ever reach the top again.
It's time to go and become a cushy commentator
ITS SHIT LIKE THIS SERRELS

Thanks man. Really awesome thing to say!
And re: tennis, totally agree. Hewitt's mental strength is ridiculous. The only other player that I think comes close in that respect is Nadal. If Murray had Hewitt's tenacity he might have a couple of slams under his belt.

How does it work? I'm interested in trying it out. Is it enhanced chat functionality without games or store or whatever?
I would but it's on Saturday. If I'm home this Saturday I'll come along but I really can't promise anything.
Just lets you edit Steam Categories external to Steam, because the system inside steam is fuck off awful.
(ie. I got the shits with it and wanted to play with the steam files to see if I could actually do it.)
If you are interested, it doesn't do much yet other than some reporting as I disabled all the Save features for now until I am happy I won't break peoples Steam. (Fairly sure it does not as mine is still functioning, but you never know and people are dicks).
Edit: Cricket Thread time! Aus to bat.

Yeah, that's fair enough. I have two Steam folders (one for a TF2 idle account) so I'd be happy to even test save functionality for you at any point. Just let me know.
I got Ze Goggles and that no-hat hat for the Sniper last night as drops randomly lol. Got Ze Goggles on a pony server, fucking ponies. hate the show but the servers are always populated and around my skill level.
Cool, thanks, chucked you a PM with details.

Yep, Marsh out and Watson will slot back in. Would like to see Watson coming in first drop with the opening pair left to build on their chemistry and Clarke come in once the new ball is well and truly smashed.

If anybody has Trine 2 and would like to play some co-op like, today, that would be rad.
Working friday here, fuck all people will be in, so little or no pressure 8)
I was picturing a 'head flung back in massive shock and arousal' nosebleed.

I get the feeling most of our workers are going to call in sick so it will be a fucking nightmare to try and keep operations flowing, expect some angry phonecalls from the call centre. Especially since Australia Day is apparently a 'damaging' day for public housing.
Should be great fun! My fault for not organising an annual leave day in advance before the other admin worker did. In any case if I don't work Friday all the work will still be waiting for me on Monday, but now with a shorter deadline and more people chasing me with more vigour.
Sharapova showed last night she is the biggest cheat in world tennis
It is common fact that tennis players listen to the way the ball comes off the opposing players raquet to determine whether its a slice, spun etc.
Sharapova grunts to cover the noise of her racquet. And last night when she was losing she started to grunt louder.
Discuss.

This was discussed a few days ago (or maybe yesterday). Someone had a link to a study about it being about balance.
The grunt isn't needed though according to the study so she is indeed using it to put the other player off.
I remarked about a game earlier in the week where she started winning more once she started to get the grunts up.
It isn't cheating. They simply aren't pulling them up on it.
She is not the only one doing it.
I wish. Katawa Shoujo has had a devastating effect on my libido.

I read that as "Sharapova showed last night she has the biggest chest in world tennis."
Let me give you a comparison
In football if as a player shoots towards goal they grunt and shriek, i have to award a free kick t the other team and give the player a yellow card for unsportsmanlike conduct
because its seen as intentionally distracting the other player. Just like you can't yell miss it you fool when someone is shooting
So if football gets it right, why cant tennis......

Sounds like the umpire/referee/whatever in tennis isn't doing their job properly then if it is indeed against the rules.

WTA Rules for the Tour
2. Deliberate Hindrance
Any hindrance caused by a player that is ruled deliberate will result in
the loss of a point.
the umpires need to grow some balls and so does the WTA. They need to rule that grunting is a hindrance

Can in AFL. Least grassroots footy. Least I did a lot. You're just not allowed to insult their mothers or anything. You can tell them that they're crap at footy though.
I think they're all waiting for another umpire to make the first move, or more likely the governing body.
You can do it in football if its sledging, just not in a way which is purely designed to intentionally distract a player who has the ball or may need to stop a shot
so

You wouldn't want to be in the hotel room next to Maria Sharapova on her wedding night! The bloody noise would drive you mad!
and Jo Griggs said this
Jo Griggs after Sharapova's win.. "you've gotta wonder what she'd be like giving birth!" #wow
LOOOOOOOL
Happens all the time in AFL. Players are jumping around and shouting all kinds of stuff when players take a shot at goal.

Choc, what is the internal word on Modnation Vita? The whole press release about the MP is incredibly funny.
Also Ponting looks good. Hopefully he and Cowan can bat out the day and build us a nice total to kick off from tomorrow.

Here you go Omi.
A nice big warm cat hug. I sent him back in time to give you a hug while you were still a baby so that you grow up to be a happy, loving child who creates beautiful things that appease peoples OCD.
Also cats like nice warm baby clothing. They wish they could wear it too but, you know, the thumbs and all. That is why they are so opposed to so many things, the lack of useful thumbs makes them grumpy.
