Ahh, I'm on the GAF recommended EU server - have completely forgotten which, but it's not Fisherman's Landing.
Ahh well - I might move 'em over depending how GAFGuild goes
When I was home for summer i didn't even do one night out in town, in general it's just shite.
Went drinking plenty, Parish, Zephyr, Grove, etc. But not like a night out.
I'm in (at least I hope i'm still in it) a guild from /vg/ on 4chan (yeah i know i know) but they are a surprisingly helpful mostly friendly bunch. I have mates from RL that I play with on there in that guild.
That's the sound of me judging you
Sounds good - I'll see if I have fun with GAFGuild over the next couple of weeks and if it's lacking, I'll move over to your server

Holy shit guys! Wii U! It has games! Good ones! :lol
I'm not generally a night out person, but given the company I keep and the time of the year, it's hard to avoid. Not that I'm complaining- my tastes are incredibly undiscerning when it comes to this kind of thing. I've only ever known shit nights out.

Kinda tempted for Rayman Legends and ZombiU but everything else I'm interested in is on PC.
I'm desperately trying not to be excited for it because every console I buy gets played for a while and then shelved whilst I play on my PC...

Don't buy it. My console gaming peasant arse will love it though.
Monster Hunter 3U was a nice surprise- it wasn't like Bayonetta 2, which almost made me fall off my chair, but it's one of those "oooooh!" announcements that, even if you don't play or get MH, you gotta appreciate the importance of.

See, even though I never played Bayonetta, the fact that Nintendo are willing to pay for the sequel speaks volumes about how they're trying hard with this system.
Maybe in a year or two I'll jump on board. Actually, as soon as the first 3D Mario or any kind of Zelda/Metroid is shown I'll probably start to cave. We'll see

Whatever do you mean?
TBH, I'm kinda bummed about Bayo 2 being exclusive. I wouldn't mention it on gaming side because I don't want to piss in anyone's Cheerios but I wish it was multiplat. I have no intention of buying a Wii-U so I'll have to miss out.
Oh well!
My money is it being a timed exclusive. I'm sure they'll be able to find a publisher to put it out on other platforms.

Nah, it's a Ninty joint. I've already made my peace with it.
The Rayman game isn't though right? Really enjoyed Origins on Vita.

I, too, am looking for a new PC. Pre-built (yeah, yeah) in the £800-900 range ideally. Biggest concerns are getting the best graphics card bang for my buck (while not skimping on PSU, cooling, etc.) Any recommendations, resident UK PC experts?
I'm not sure if you'd be able to squeeze it into the budget of a prebuilt, but you'd comfortably fit a 670 in if you took the plunge to build it yourself.
This video was an excellent refresher for me since it had been a while since I put my last build together.
Otherwise for sticking with prebuilt this thread is your friend!

Gimme a PM if you want a bit of help, or just head over to the PC building thread - plenty of options, good sir
I'm feeling pretty fucking good right now. I'm mostly the warehouse guy and do a lot of the lower level IT stuff here, as we have another, main IT guy who does everthing.
He's been a bit of an unreliable Jeremy (looking for other jobs, blowing off responsibilities here, and finally has taken 2 weeks off for 'stress' following a dressing down from the managers) so I've been taking over some of the main IT stuff.
I got a new user set up on our system today with all the specialist software which nobody could figure out how to get working - got all her domain stuff sorted blah blah blah
Nothing I shouldn't be able to easily do, but it's the first time I've been given the chance to have a crack at it and I've managed it happily. Along with that, I set up a server on my own for the first time yesterday (have done plenty of hardware bits like building them before and small software stuff like setting up a RAID and an OS, but not the whole thing)
So yeah... feeling rather positive for a change!
So was I

Good, a weekend to remember!
bloody hell guys, if you're building/buying a new PC then you only need one place:

www.ebuyer.co.uk too

lol yeah I certainly feel like doing that!
Nah I've been sticking to it pretty well since the start. Been doing slimming world with the wife but as she hit her target, I've carried on doing it. I just seem to hover where I am now, even though I've started running a few weeks ago.
Maybe I'm not eating enough and so my body is going into starvation mode, or some shit.
I'm buying a bike tomorrow to take advantage of all the awesome country paths all around my village. They call me the cycler. And no my bike won't be some half grand beast but a hundred quid one from Halfords
Im so excited man. I love cycling off road.

You don't have a bike yet why would anyone call you the cycler.

Love you really, mang.

I was in Halfords last week getting new tires and a service on my bike and they had some fucking beautiful bikes for over a grand. Would've literally sucked off the dude serving me if he promised to give it to me for free

Don't buy bikes from Halfords guys seriously.

Well now you've gone and said it!
Haha I've been out in Bradford and Notts loads of times and the worst thing I've had is a black eye so I'm sure I'll be fine
Their cheap bikes are shit but they have some gorgeous expensive ones, although they are overpriced.

This.
Find yourselves a local bike shop guys. Or better still, pick up something at a local auction house, strip it down and rebuild it yourself - there's nothing quite so satisfying. Plus, if you are as incompetent as I was first time I did it, there's the spice of added danger!
My local auction house when I lived in Bedford had a weekly sale of "Eggs, Rabbits and Bicycles" (no, I have no idea why these particular things were lumped together, but it is a phrase that has stuck with me all these years) and I picked up some real bargains.

Google 'bicycle shaped objects' for more on the subject. Bikes don't need to be expensive but fuck Halfords.

Intresting.. Its the type of bike i was going to go for.. I really don't want to spend more than 150 on a bike
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_878341_langId_-1_categoryId_165499
Is that a real bike guys/musha ?
I feel the same for people who work 12 hour shifts. 8 hours is enough for me. In a perfect world 4 to 6 hour shifts would be amazing.
Thanks to smokys bso teachings I have learned a decent bike is out of my reach this week.
Thanks for saving me a good two hundred quid that I would nave spend on a better looking bso.
I will now go to sleep depressed since my hype for buying a bike tomorrow has been destroyed.
