DampSquib: Good afternoon.
Hi there!

AgentBirdnest: Well, as long as someone replies to you, it qualifies as a conversation, which qualifies it to be in the thread ;-p
True, but there are more pleasant/fun things we can talk about. Like did you know the Moomins are responsible for Justin Bieber?

(Disclaimer: I might have just made that up, in fact I did, but you never know with those Moomins.) :-)

CarrionCrow: That would really be bad, especially with people screaming their heads off endlessly about it.

Yes, that's the one. It's looking like the best value for someone who can't afford something massive like the tier that includes the flight jacket.
Would be a fiasco for GOG - but i guess time will tell,...

Exactly. That's why i chose it. Looking at some of the screens there - i assume that Battletech was at least partially inspired by Dune... :)

CarrionCrow: Good afternoon. =)

How's your day going?
Pretty good thanks, spent most of the day gardening.
Thought it was time to tick off a few more games from the backlog.
Downloading the Drod series, give them a whirl at the weekend.

How has your day been?
Does anyone know if another sale is looming? I'm getting odd tingles and flutters, like something yawn-inducing and as yet invisible is creeping up behind me...

NoNewTaleToTell: Hi again fellows and fellowettes!

Great block of releases today but nothing I'd want to buy at the prices listed to be perfectly honest. Maybe in the next big sale I'll take a chance on the Quake and Wolfenstein series. Until then it looks like Way of the Samurai 4 is the closest to receiving my cash, depending on what the weekend promo is of course.
Good morning. =)

Yeah, Bethesda is shooting itself in the foot a bit with the higher initial prices. It gets harder to pick up old games with very little beyond shoot-bang when you've got choices like System Shock around for an FPS, along with a massive array of good stuff in other genres that are all cheaper.

Doing the same thing. Was going to pick up Fantasy and Pacific General while they were on sale, but dozed off before doing so. Oh well, full price purchases support GOG more and they're only 6 apiece retail, so no big deal.
Also going back and forth on Way of the Samurai. It might be good, or the sandbox nature might end up annoying me.

ddickinson: Hello, little Blob! *return hug*

Is your day doing any better?

Thank you. I recall you mentioning your wife and her condition before, which was very sad to hear. But I was pleased to hear things were looking up for her, and hopefully she is over the worst now. I try not to let it get to me, and for the most part I do a good job, but seeing the effect it has on the people I care about is a little much for me sometimes. But I will shut up for real now, I talk about my stuff way too much. :-)
Just want to hug you some more.*even more hugs for the cute lady*

Moomins and Justin both have a pretty large group of Beliebers, so it's not surprising :-p
I get it though. I try not to talk about unpleasant things too much, for fear of depressing people. I don't ind listening to others though. I think I'm crazy 8-)

I don't think anyone knows for sure... but if I recall correctly (which I most certainly don't, because my memory is similar to a goldfish's) the last two Fall sales started in early November. Never know with GOGOG though :-p

Sounds like a good plan. Enjoy being outside, then do enjoyable stuff inside.

Ran some errands here. Went shopping, grabbed breakfast, came back. Now it's appreciating the weather being nice and cool while deciding what to play next while deciding what to buy next. Decisions, decisions.

So you admit it, you Moomins did let him lose? That is just pure evil. :-)

And you are crazy, or rather mad. We all are. Do you not remember the thread's official quote, which also happens to be from the same author as my earlier quote. :-)

“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

I hope so. Would be very pleased with multiple shots at wiping out my list before the end of the year.

That sounds like a joy. I'm not in the least bit green-fingered, but I really enjoy the sights and smells of a garden. Around this time of year there's that lovely fecund smell of the earth and leaves breaking down and enriching. I used to live in town but I'm now out in the countryside. Its the best move I ever made :-)

Alright, I admit it!! It was us!! We only wanted people to laugh at him, instead of us for a change. We never expected people would like him! '',','',,':-O

Of course I don't remember. Obviously you are forgetting my official quote...
