Damn it Rep, think about the scrolling us phone gaf users endured! Twice!
Are you guys against shitty reviews where it's clear that it's a case of a game not suiting the reviewer rather than the game being genuinely shit?
Well, you can do something about it!
I wrote this comment this morning on a shitty, shitty IGN review of WRC3. Someone in the WRC3 thread here came up with the idea to upvote it so the author sees it. For the uninitiated, WRC3 is a game based on the World Rally Championship and isn't developed by a massive company like Codemasters or Polyphony, nor is it published by a big-name business like Activision or Microsoft. It's been developed by Milestone (who have previously worked on the SBK motorcycle series) and published by Black Bean (who?).
So, if you hate shitty reviews, go here and upvote! It might not make a difference... but it just might. The fact that a small game company could have a poor selling but great game on their hands because of sites like IGN, while the sorry excuse for a "finished" game F1 2012 (now on it's seventh patch since it came out three weeks ago) becomes a blockbuster because it's able to blind reviewers with glitz and glam long enough for them to push out a glowing review before it's cracks start to show.

I'm the same. Even for domestic students it's like 900 a course, skipping class seems like such a waste. None of the classes I do are lectopia'd either, and I don't want to miss important stuff.
Nah, I agree with you. Barbecue as a noun for food rather than equipment is totally weird and sounds wrong.

Now you're just placating me to sound like the far better man, aren't you?
Nice, He used to live around the corner from me in Walkerville.
In other news, still looking for an accounting graduate position
. Got to the final stage of the ATO process but completely stuffed up the easy written assessment after the interview because of stressing myself out before hand so I couldn't concentrate and kept looking at the clock. I have 5 applications out at the moment so I hope something sticks. I worked July and August as an assistant accountant at a property management and development company but that was more a book keeping position and wasn't going to allow me to do my CA.
Starting to get really pissed off with the government organisations because you go for an interview, it goes well, then they never get back to you. I ring, they say we haven't made a decision yet but we will in the next week and we'll get back to you. 4 months later -_-
Then there was RM Williams who were looking for a graduate accountant in January who I went for two interviews with and they didn't have the guts to tell me sorry, but we gave it to the "experienced" guy. Even after I called them and they said they would get back to me the following week.
No place for a straight shooter, employers want to be lied to.
/end bitch
Hmm XCOM or hitting people with my car door in sleeping dogs time?
Sometimes I like to argue the opposite of what I think to see if I can convince myself otherwise. Usually it just makes me look like an idiot rather than the better man.
My tickets came in the mail today:O I totally squealed!

Oh, I know that. I'm just an arsehole that does the same but sometimes tries to bail out of a discussion by diverting attention away from the true point by making flippant offhand remarks.
I am ashamed of this country.

This is what happens when you process asylum claims based on their manner of arrival.

Waiting for Soundgarden to come out and tour for their new album, didn't go to Big Day Out this year because i'd rather see them at their own show.
Dream show would be a Soundgarden and Pearl Jam joint show but that would be pretty brutal on Matt Cameron the drummer lol would be great to see them perform some temple of the dog songs live.
I went to linkin park in 2009, i think it was, just to see Chris Cornell open for them and he played Hungerstrike which was awesome. It was truly disheartening while waiting outside for hours that so many people didn't know who he is.
Edit. Oh shit, think I just progressed from junior! took long enough

We should process them dependant on how they operate a BBQ. If they close the lid we close our doors and hearts.
But seriously, when you deny asylum seekers the very basic rights it's become an absolute disgrace.

If they are happy to eat my BBQ and stand around shooting the shit I think they should stay.

I'm trying to get people together so I have an excuse to get my BBQ on buddy. Reppie needs some seared flesh and salads in his diet to keep him in good times mode. I'm even willing to chuck some eggplant on there, I don't discriminate.
I feel like you both have strong arguments. Planet_JASE, how would you feel about a 6 month grace period? If they are still closing the lid after that they can get kicked out?

As long as they're willing to change their ways completely to my line of thinking and give up all aspects of their own culture in order to fully assimilate, then I'll meet them half way and give them a 6 month breather.
It's all about compromise and each party meeting half way. You know?

There are entire stores dedicated to selling gatchapon toys that people won from the machines but didn't want. They can get really expensive, too. This tiny Famicom was ¥1500.
If you guys want anything let me know and if I'm able to bring it back I shall. Not a lot of room in the pack though!

Nope, but with 3 out of 4 of the remaining games being at home, should be ok.... but yeah.

I am still on my first game (Normal+Ironman) and yeah, it is pretty frustrating when you make an error of judgement and cringe as your guy gets flanked by a guy you didn't know was there and dies.
But, hey, that is XCOM I guess. Reloading would feel kinda wrong to me.
And also you realised you were watching Good Game.
Good Game is by far one of the best VG TV shows out there, I don't get the hate.
