Its nice to see my rep creep up a point or two in the last couple of days, thanks to some communal prodding from a certain black-beaked avian. Sometimes I look at it and think, 'Huh, am I offending people?' which I expect is a symptom of this 'I want it now, no yesterday,' culture we live in. There could also be a touch of 'My one's bigger than yours,' about it, but we won't go there.

The current two front-pagers look to be on the wane. I've no idea why I'm interested, I've got more than I came for...

CarrionCrow: I think they added too many newer items, honestly. Sounds silly to say given how many of them I went after, but the older games are long since done, and the newer ones are dragging like crazy.

Figuring the quantities are too high when mixed with the higher price points. Add in the factor of this being the third time they're appearing, and it's a great mix for some serious slowdown.
That's it... well sumarized.
What will happen, then ?... the "oldies" sale will end before the "new items" one ?...

The sale for the older items ended hours and hours and hours ago.

GOG's been pushing two newer items at a time instead of one, and it's still dragging.
Hey everyone!

I caught up. Whew.

Night was good, made a decent amount of money for a first night somewhere new and it's going to be a regular weekly pitch so very pleased with the prospect of earning a bit more money again :)

I see Halfway didn't have the decency to stick around though so I could consider buying it... just everything else in the sale Keaning.

I'm just going to randomly chime in on bits of conversations that I've just read, so this may be slightly confusing... :D

I dislike Thornton's chocolate, it's a bit rich and sickly for me... I prefer my chocolate mostly sugar... XD

I learnt most of what I know about chemistry (and science in general) form the Science of the Discworld series. Really excellent books if you want to dip your toes into a whole range of subjects.

I've +1'd a random selection of posts so hopefully hit all of our awesome gifting ninja's on the way :)

The rep system is weird. There's a limit on how much a person can go up in a day, apparently 5 points according to people in the tracker thread.
But at the same time, there's apparently no limit on how much someone's rep can go down.

So, even if someone with a lot of time on their hands does +1 every post certain people make, it still takes its sweet godsdamned time spitting those extra stars out...

Hey there. =)

Glad to hear it was a good starting point kind of evening, with potential to get bigger so you make more money.

That one went by pretty quickly, comparatively. Round three's been getting weird responses at times when it comes to certain items, and quantities being really varied just makes it that much more unpredictable.

-laughs- It's okay. If you didn't notice, then odds are you weren't looking for some older item and possibly missing it.

Hi Owl. Its an hour later where you are than it is for me. How can you sound so happy? I'm beginning to feel like a brick wall again.

I'm an owl. I live during the night... really.
But you shouldn't speak to me in the morning... anyway, not until I've filled my body with some strong coffee :D

I just had some REALLY strong chocolate, so I should be on the ceiling in a few minutes...hopefully ;-)


Endre, I didn't ask you how your day was and if the thaw has thawed yet...

Yeah some stuffs gone really quickly and others have crawled along, with price and quality seeming to have nothing to do with it.

Thank you all :)

And yes, now that you mention it.. I'm knackered, but I had to come and say hello :D
Off to bed for me now though, see you all tomorrow (or later, or yesterday... however it works)
