Elimination games in general aren't that fun. Especially with no other means of determining a winner. Game of Thrones board game might have been a better option.

Game of Thrones/Diplomacy: for when you have too many friends and want to be sure you'll never speak to some of them ever again.

Risk has a lot of win conditions. We always finished with someone, say, holding all of Asia or capturing 12 countries in a single turn.

Fired up Black Mesa (after a little false start, would some instructions or an installer that looks for dependencies go astray?)... Half Life is OK I guess. Been a while since I played the first one, never actually finished it, at least that I can recall. The plan is to pay through the lot in order (have finished HL2/Ep1 but not Ep2). Maybe the third will be out by the time I'm ready.

For the first time ever, my Bigpond wireless Internet modem thingy is picking up 4G from my house. Now if only I wasn't capped to 64kbps until Wednesday so I could see how much faster it is...

The task manager is definitely an improvement though, and don't tell Kritz, but I like the ribbon buttons in explorer. There are a bunch of other really good improvements too. If SP1 included a suite of mouse and desktop focused settings that you could turn on in one hit if you didn't have a touchscreen, I think it could be a good OS.

what What WHAT

Bad Fred, the ribbon is an atrocity. It's been something like 7 years since that thing's been introduced and I still hate it.

Did someone yell out to him "Go back to your own country!"? Because we're all racist, I'd be surprised if no-one called him out on it.

When he met Guan Tianlang, he spat on him and told him to go back home on the boat he came to The Masters on.

Man the golf was epic. Love the Masters. I didn't leave home for work until 9 this morning, haha. Stupid playoff.

I got here just in time though, as they were showing it in the cafeteria and I saw the winning putt.

Don't try to get back in my good books, tiger. The damage is done.

PS. There's an app on iOS that has the license to recreate Zaccaria pinball tables (an Italian pinball company from the late-70s to mid-80s). It's pretty damn good for how long it's been out for (and the dev doesn't have a history of making IRL tables).

How is playing pinball on the iPad? Or do you only play it when you have it hooked up to that iCade monstrosity?

I don't have a problem with it, really. In landscape, it doesn't feel awkward at all. Just like a big controller I guess.

I'm thinking of doing this with my iCade Core, but it's not necessary:

So yeah, I'm fine with the touchscreen on iPad :) Haven't played it on my phone since.

Sport + beer = cheering crowd

I got hooked after watching some finals matches when we were in the hotel room for Supernova Melbourne in 2010. My mates and I watched it for hours and it was amazing haha.

Not so good news for anyone that hasn't managed to watch it yet and was looking forward to it, I guess.

Always gotta stay away from Facebook, GAF and news sites when waiting to watch a recorded sports match.

Rookie move.
Click to expand...
Nah, I don't sport, so it didn't spoil anything for me. But there's always a chance that someone else was going to watch that.

Actually, I have been known to sport, but of the NBA style sporting. On three occasions I've had a finals match spoiled even though I did everything in my power to not hear the result. On one occasion, One put the result of the match in the between shows "news" segments. My recording of the match started the very second the announcer said "[team] have won the final series." Jackasses.

I didn't even name the team and it was like 14 hours ago so pffffffft.

But you linked to a news article about the team to which you said had one the match.
