SteamHammer Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I've managed to limit myself to just the computer game part of that KS. No extra models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 O.o Woah, there's a way for stupid people to learn a lesson, I guess, lol. Any of that work yours? ---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ---------- Honestly, if I chip in, I'll probably only do models. The game looks interesting, but the fact that they intend to ship with only one campaign and put more emphasis on the multiplayer has me kinda 'meh'.

Mako Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Nope, I use my own laptop, and back it up to an external hard drive regularly. And to dropbox too sometimes, if its really important. I'd sympathise, but I tried to tell them when we got it that it was network linked and their standard logins would work, so they didn't need local accounts. They refused and said that they had always had local accounts and it was better that way. Now I can sit back and laugh smugly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 That is still by far my favorite story arc... Mallcop Command and the one right after it are just wonderful pieces of writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 very tired. ran a self diagnostic pt test uphill in high humidity, after not sleeping too well last night. I think I might take a nap. wow Mako... glad none of that was yours, sucks for them though! Hopefully they learned their lesson so they don't have to go through all that again.

edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Oof. PT uphill would be bad enough...tossing humidity on to it is just insult to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Heh, they won't learn. For scientists, they show an amazing refusal to accept that anything other than 'how they used to do it' could be right... PT, in this? That's just sadistic. Especially doing it to yourself!

edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Eh. I know my workplace is quite the mess because they refuse to adapt to changing circumstances... even when given the option to upgrade to a better machine from a different company, they went with the new line from the same company 'because we know them.' Incidentally, the machine was so new compared to the old one it had nothing compatible in it, including the programming language. (rolls eyes) Short version, I know your pain...

bowchikawowers Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 probably not.

edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Okay, that was a little amusing bit of satire. Maybe I should take the time to watch The Daily Show when this all hits this week... Anyway, I'm about to try for a nap myself. Let's see if I can get this sleep schedule to cooperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustcrusher Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 No real-world politics please (of course, the politics of Malifaux, other games, fantasy novels, and other such things are fine). As I say in the store when the old grumps are whining about this and that, "I come here to escape reality- there are any number of places I can go if I want to face it." ---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ---------- I was too busy doing Monty Python for mine, Redd... http://montypython.50webs.com/scripts/Series_1/35.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowchikawowers Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 sorry dust, no more, I promise. to be honest, politics isn't my usual favorite either, but my dad wasn't answering his phone, and he's usually the only one I bother to talk about it with.

Dustcrusher Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 No worries- it's just tiring enough to try to stay informed with all of the spin everywhere. It seems like it used to be "what do we do based on the facts?" and now it's "is there anything we can agree on before someone starts screaming about bias and hidden agendas?" Redd, I did that and segued into the one with a terrible smuggler that finally confesses only to have the customs agent completely disbelieve him. "Look for all I know, sir, you bought those clocks before you even went to Switzerland." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustcrusher Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not too shabby. Got to work late and I'm itching to go home and work on models- not sure if I want to do Werewolves (which I'm going to paint in Altered Beast colors :-P) or Mummies first, or perhaps I'll just skip to the Bones Colossal Skeleton instead. ---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ---------- How about you?

Mako Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Ooh, the colossal. Definitely the colossal. I won a game of netrunner at last, took the naturals against NBN. I do realise I beat the wimpy deck, but I am rubbish so it's an achievement for me! Also, for those that play, the combo wayland has of tagging me when they score an agenda, then double scorched earth, is quite brutal. Would have helped if I'd remembered I had a resource I could trash to get rid of the tag, but would simply have delayed the inevitable for a few turns... hows things Ed? I'm now 200 words into the first draft of the first theophilus bit. I swear, I will read the cyberpunk before I send you it! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not bad, actually. Waking up and all that. Had a really bizarre dream that during it seemed to be based off Schlock Mercenary, lol. And no worries about that, I'm looking forward to reading it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
