Horrible post and you should be ashamed.
It has become less prevalent in the modern era but you can say the same for tea drinking and repressed sexuality.

Hmm, guess I should research it a bit more since it seems to still be a prevalent issue.

Upper middle class white English people in don't want to be judged shocker.

To be fair, nobody wants to be judged, especially for things often out of their control.

Is there a reason Drew talks the way he does?
It seems like he puts a massive amount of thought into forming his sentences.

How do I check how long my Premium Membership runs? Cause I got auto-renewed today and I feel like I have to be up to 2020 at this point.

He took a sacred vow never to swear on camera or on tape. It's tough.
He probably tries to do what you didn't do before asking this question.

I think Drew just likes being a very prepared and thorough person and that just comes through in his talking as well. What's wrong with that?

I've heard that about Mark Cerny. People that have interviewed him have said sometimes he takes a while to answer questions, because he's comprehending the question and then giving a very thought out answer.

No GBeast content today?
Did you ever play Chess on Atari 2600?
If you played vs CPU and turned the difficulty up, it would just go to a blank screen for a really long time before making a move.
What I'm trying to say is that Drew is running on an Atari 2600.
Apparently there's no content today because PAX is in a week? I guess?
There was a great Game Room QL with this game and Ryan, I think.

Grow Up Review by Bwad Shoemaker
I thought PAX was only supposed to ruin one weekend of content not two.'
Maybe Dan is just getting used to the new office.
Looks like Vinny joins Jeff B. on the latest 404 episode.

I really want to play that, but it needs minimum 8 GB RAM* (my PC only has 6) and a much better GPU than I have. I was bummed when I saw those specs a few weeks ago. At least I can still play No Limits 2. Also, Parkitect is great. Out of all the current wave of amusement park games, it's the one that replicates Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 and 2 the best. I wish they'd do an Unfinished of that. It's Early Access and still in Alpha. I've had it since Pre-Alpha. Other recent games are (both panned) Theme Park Studio and Roller Coaster Tycoon World. All of these game are on Steam.
*It recommends 12GB of RAM!!

Man, Rorie (or whoever else works for the GB support) is fucking ACE. I sent an Email asking if I could get a refund (because my subscription got automatically renewed and I don't have a lot of money right now AND I bought a renewal during the May Sale) and just one hour later I actually got a refund. No big deal made about it, just got what I asked for.
As somebody who recently had to CALL the Economist in England cause those assholes don't have another way to cancel a subscription, this is just fantastic.

I've emailed support many times and have gotten quick replies. Rorie is always on top of his shit.
I should bloody well hope The Economist knows a thing or two about holding onto your money

Totally. I actually hate mailing support cause I'm super anxious about causing people "trouble", even if it's their job. I'm one of those people who don't complain if the waiter brings you the wrong food. So I'm always super reliefed when things just work out and I don't have to argue with support people about it.
Though I might have to write them again cause now apparently my Premium Subscription expired even though I bought one during the May sale. I can still access Premium Content though so maybe that's just a mistake?
Cancelling that subscription has been a nightmare for me.
They tell you they need your account email adresse and you should mention it in the mail to the support. So I did just that.
Then I got an automated response, telling me that if I didn't include my mail adress they won't even receive my mail. But since I included it, I tought I'd be fine.
Well, wrong.
What you have to do is reply to that automated email and tell them your email adress again, THEN you get another automated email telling you your mail has been received.
And then, after a week, I got a mail with a dude telling me "Hey, please call this number"
Thanks. You couldn't have told me that before? Like, on your "Cancel your subscription" page? Urgh..
instant failure

I still haven't played the Bangkok map, how is it?

It's a 4 story hotel. It somehow feels smaller than the other maps for me. But it looks like they put so many things to interact with so the elusive targets should have more creative ways to kill people.

Not a big fan of Max Temkin so I don't think I'll bother watching this year.

I like the CAH people a lot. Max and Jenn are a lot of fun.
Should be a dumb ass panel. Honestly they need to mix it up anyways.

Oh my god, that Soviet Monesters Ekranoplans QL is a-mazing.
I'm actually happy that it's a smaller map. It's a nice change of pace. Really loved some of the smaller maps in Blood Money. I'd love to see a "Suburbs" equivalent.

It seems like a map that is perfect for elusive targets since its really dense but the actual story mission is a bit too straight forward since it doesnt really take advantage of a lot of the map

The PAX panel submission form only has that many spots on it for panelists, so at some point you just run out of space.
