I am the waifu of Chrom.
I only went to Games Paradise because I was chasing something out of print and they were the only ones showing stock.
My process goes OzGameShop > Games Empire > CSI if ordering enough stuff > Ebay > google for other shops > wait for restock at these places. Games Paradise don't even enter into it unless there are no other choices possible, Milsims will never get a dollar of mine ever again. OzGameShop gets stuff to me usually within 7 days total.
I had something sent Thursday / Friday, I live in hope for today then!
PS> What did you get?
It helps that I'm in Sydney where it arrives first. Probably another day or two to Melbourne I'd say, still pretty impressive.
I'll take a photo of what I grabbed and share when the last of it trickles in over the next couple of days. I may have gone a little nuts.

oooh, i bet you have nice chrom babies! actually, i kinda wana do a female playthrough on harder difficulty once there's a lul in games. pity there isn't a new game plus or anythin
Actually was sent Wednesday, so probably tomorrow/day after I am guessing
Photo sounds good. I just got Power Grid.
I find Tasmania tax means I'll wait a week for any board games.
Waiting for Carcassonne Expansion 1 and Galaxy Trucker to arrive, should be sometime this week I think.
I've also finally gotten around to playing the games I've ordered:
First game of Agricola:
Tied for first with 24 points. Rulebook says you resolve ties by playing a second game. ... right on.
Also my farm is TERRIBLE. Suffered a hefty penalty for those blank spaces I was unable to fill up. Everyone kept taking all the wood. :<
And also my winning game of BSG.
I intentionally didn't look at my loyalty card for the first half of the game to throw off everyone. Couldn't find a rule in the book preventing that style of play, although there are rules for halfway in where you need to look at your cards since you do actions depending on one of them.
But we were about one jump away from winning, where I took advantage of the already low morale, to make a decision as president to take a card choice that reduced it even further, then the next crisis card drawn failed the skill check causing morale to drop to 0 for the turn, giving me a swift, unexpected, victory.
Also played Peuto Rico, which is really amazing. Don't have a picture of that all set up though.

Was sorely tempted for Tharja, but Lissa's galeforce is getting hella use
You can even have a pet animal - in my case, a boar - wander around your home. I named him Henry. Henry did not get eaten.

BSG is an amazing game. We played a great game that went down to the last jump on Saturday night. I was a Cylon from the beginning and along with my fellow Cylon (who I gave the second Cylon card to during the sleeper phase) we destroyed the puny humans.
I haven't played Agricola though. Is it worth playing?
lol that is pretty great!
pffff lissar, she's annoying! tharja for life!
but what the hell, she's called Tharja in the english release???? what a turnoff! サーリャ is waaay better
Fuck yeah nipple tape emoticon!
It's a daily podcast, 30-50 minutes long, with a weekly recap that usually goes for an hour. Plenty of Spurs coverage (well, especially now cos Tim Duncan et al. are still bloody in it). Surprised you don't listen already - it's one of the highest circulated sports podcasts. The guys each have their favourite teams but it's very fairly handled discussion. They're known equally for their comprehensive knowledge of the game as well as the irreverent off-the-rails rambling.

So, I was picking up munchies for tonights festivity, and look what I found:
Almost as excited for that as I am for the Xbox thing.

First of all shane us, if that is your real name.
A: Its doritos for xbox.
B: Mountain dew, no crab juice.
C: You said you were a primarily pc gaming guy? What self respecting pcer would be excited for the xbox? Thats like hitler being excited for the russian advance on berlin!

Whatever is being done with Xbox will have nothing on that, it sounds delicious.
Also I tried some flavour of the Kettle equivalent of Grain Waves and it was the best by far. Forget Grain Waves and forget the Woolies/Safeway equivalent.

I just finished Sleeping Dogs. It was good.
Oh man, you guys missed my post after the edit I made

I've played a couple of orders through Ozgameshop and I have received both in 1 week. Which is amazing compared the experiences with Games Paradise and Milsims. Games Paradise is the worst place I have ever ordered anything from. They have terrible customer service also.
I was pleasantly surprised with that game and enjoyed every minute of it. Rare game that I have 100%ed.

I would like to finish off the relationship and investigations before shelving the game, but I can't figure out how to get to Tiffany's. There seems to be no way in, no matter the time of day or night.
:OSo, I was picking up munchies for tonights festivity, and look what I found:
how are they on a scale of lime&pepper to jalapenopep&ched??!
Was it whatever the creamy one was? I didn't like that
I honestly don't remember. I found their website to look at the 3 different flavours and it's not helping. I hate my terrible memory.

I don't get out much aside from bargain hunting and RLM
Already filled up my phone with these thanks!
DONT ASK ME IM JUST A BOY
I dunno dude. This week? Last week? Check your account!
Tiffany is just at the Karaoke club I thought?
EDIT: Actually! END GAME SPOILER
You break up with her when you realise she is cheating on you. Then it flies in your face that you were fucking Not Ping behind her back.
What have you got left to go?

I don't recall how to do it but I didn't have any trouble with it. Just call her up on your phone I think.
Yep, Rep's spoiler is spot on. Funny stuff.

I meant *date*, not which week. Means we might have it tomorrow! If it's only a matter of days, that is.
PS. I kinda adore this one:

Nope, fuck it not going to bed early! No way I will be able to get to sleep early after the day I have had. Going to bed at midnight after doping the boy up and thinking about getting up at 3am when he wakes up yelling and just trying to stay awake for the show then go back to bed.
Fuck the hype train! I'll take the express at 7am if I sleep through!

X3n - part of why i might go AMD again next upgrade. Probably won't have the full effect by then though.

Too right! Less than 2 weeks to go, I can't wait.
FWIW, I still love how you refer to your son as "the boy". It's such an obvious Simpsons influence, I can't help but hear it in Homer's tone.

They are not in front of me, obviously you have done something wrong
You're doing it wrong by living in Adelaide.
