      You don't need depth perception to play L4D2.

  2. Going to need a stiff drink after today - builders can't measure properly - wall started to crack - foundation or roof to adjust, which one I don't know - another 3 days of repair

  3. 1st weekend I got to myself in ages

  4. Have had to ban him twice before under the name Unknown Person - once for rushing (15mins) and the other for a day for his excessive use of bad language. I know that he/she knows that this is against the servers rules, but yet again failed to abide by them. I know this game can be frustrating at times, but bear in mind, it is a team game and not a 'me' game.
  5. The main reason I burned you was that the teams were unbalanced : (Dark Carnival Fairground) 1) You ignored votescramble request made by players as the score was 2,000 v 200 2) The survivors had barely moved out of saferoom and there was a charger glitch (I would have slayed the player, but couldn't find who it was) and you ended up with 3 tanks. I burnt you (and this is the 1st time in burning a tank) just to help out the survivors a little - they surely needed some help. You were banned because you were rushing and it was only for 15 mins. When you are so far away from your teammates and not in a position to spawn block properly or help in anyway, I would call that rushing. Furthermore, adding more insults without any justification is likely to get you a perma-ban.
  6. Personally, I don't agree with respawns at all, but I do tolerate it and yes, an incremental increase would be a good idea.
  7. Judging the way google updates it's street maps, there's going to be a lot of lost people around.
  8. I'm a fan - superb musicianship - makes a change listening to rap that can be understood lol.
  9. You were definitely rushing along with 2 other players who I also banned for 15 mins. Best advice in future, leave the rushers alone and stay with the majority of the group.
  10. Penultimate surveyor inspection of studio today - he was here for no more than 20 mins and I get a £700 bill. Must be in the wrong profession.

      My house inspection was about $400, or was it $700? Either way, all he did was walk around, look at stuff, run the water from every sink/shower and tell me nothing looks terribly wrong lol. They get paid a lot for what seems and easy job.

  11. We're going to get you. We're going to get you. Not another peep. Time to go to sleep.
  12. That's wierd, I don't remember banning you, seems like a mistake - sry - you are now unbanned.
  13. I would like to start off by saying 'Eye-eye, Captain', but no and nor do I suspect the police will. The main reason being, is that here in the smaller rural communities, the policing is so inadequate and the CCTV which they rely on so much in the larger towns and cities are non-existent here. On a lighter side, I got a phone call from my optician asking to go in for an eye-test. I went for the test and said, 'If you want, you can fit me up with a monocle and I'll come back in a month so you can do the other eye then'.
  14. Got builders in finishing sound-proofing studio today - no mainframe computer, only a dying old laptop, but still beats the hell out of any Vista OS.

      He's building a replica of a high-security bank vault so he can practice breaking into it for a grand heist.

      Close, extending music studio to get my grand piano in there

  15. Can't play this game: if it's not L4D2 or chess, I wouldn't have a clue.
  16. I'm happy with the way I do it - my logitech G510 gaming keyboard - courtesy of GC - does it all for me. Thanks guys

    Ghosts?

    I used to play piano in an olde 17th Century pub in North London that was frequented by Dick Turpin and during the the height of Victorian period, became one of the most popular music hall venues. It was here that Charles Dickens apparently was inspired to write the murder scene of Nancy by Bill Sykes in Oliver and was used as a title song in the musical, 'The Olde Bull and Bush'. Dickens had a slight problem in that he didn't know how Sykes would be found out. The answer came to him when the landlord's dog began howling as he was caught under the wheel of a carriage and had it's tail torn off. A local doctor who was good friends with the landlord and was there merrily drinking, improvised some surgery and saved the dog's life who lived to the grand old age of 23. Dickens then got the idea that after Bill Sykes had murdered Nancy, his dog, Bull's Eye turned against Bill and stayed with Nancy's body. The landlord's dog, Timon, can be said to be heard howling at the same time each night and makes an appearance every year on the day of the accident. I was performing on one such occasion, when everyone heard the howling and the ghost of the dog manifested itself. What started out as a low growling, grew into an audible voice as it grew closer. "Where is my tale?" The dog barked repeatedly. A few of the patrons got so scared, they left screaming. Again, the dog barked with a devilish growl. "I want my tale." The landlord became so fed up of him scaring his clients away, shouted back, "Sorry, but we don't re-tail spirits after closing."
  18. If it was a mistaken identity, I do apologise.
  19. Just to clarify from over the pond: Old English was sometimes written with a version of the Runic alphabet, brought to Britain by the Anglo-Saxons until about the 11th century.

  22. Bulldeer, as you are a member, you should know better than to spray porno images.
  23. Out of hospital - in at 7am, operation 9am (2hours) - just got home (almost 3pm). 1st part of surgery - around eye - removing damaged tissue - x-ray/scan showed no damage to blood vessels around eye - follow up operation in 2weeks. Asked surgeon about having a 'zyborg' eye; he laughed and said it would be easier to do a cyclops one. The best part was a decent sleep with anaesthetic; even better was the morphine after waking up lol.
  24. Happy to report..... Just got back from the inital consultation before operation this Wednesday. There is a glimmer of hope - retina not damaged and is responding to light - still can't see though, but surgeon said that is down to the massive bruising - will have to wear an eye patch though for at least 3-6 weeks after operation. Many thanks to you all for your kind words of comfort.
