I've recently been following a fantastic charity based in Oxfordshire who help disabled people engage in videogames using specially engineered and modified controllers to enable them enjoy something we all take for granted on a daily basis. Some of the work this organisation has done has been remarkable and the stories from the people have been truly inspiring. It really puts into perspective the pointless squabbles we see too often on Call of Duty! To learn more; have a browse at http://www.specialeffect.org.uk/ There is also the SpecialEffect GameBlast 24 hour endurance fundraiser that a few of you may be interested in http://www.specialeffect.org.uk/gameblast Thanks for reading

For the last couple of months I've been helping my dad coach Silverstone U8's. I've mainly been leading warm-ups, setting up cones etc. Well right now he's in Singapore for 2 weeks..... which means It's just me on my own. Tomorrow I'll attempt to coach a session with 8 year olds outnumbering me 12 to 1. Can I get them to successfully create and attack space? Or will it end up like the start of Kicking and Screaming? I'll update tomorrow...

Or forgotten to exist? Or breathe? Maybe he's been chasing a butterfly for the last week? You never know with that kid.

I'm already throwing some huge ideas around, but the time scale is too short. I'll update this as I go.

A while back on the old forum (and I'm talking mw2forum.com old) a guy called 'AskACapper' made a few posts. He's a quadraplegic gamer and comedian (and is quite popular on youtube now). He was asking for help with a petition to add button remapping in CoD to make it easier for him to game. It might be worth tweeting or messaging him to see if he can send traffic that way, I'm sure he'd be interested. http://www.youtube.com/user/askacapper/ https://twitter.com/AskACapper

This is a pretty realistic portrayal to be fair!

37-6 on locker conquest tonight. went on a 13 streak at the end of the game. had a massive push for A flag, it was mental.nades and airbursts going off everywhere, but got two guys running into a through the scanners, then dudes kept appearing out of side doors, must have killed 8-9 people within 60 seconds... locker is a fucking awesome map

Have you ever seen YourMovieSucks? Basically, y'know, he tells you why your movie sucks. Here's his The Walking Dead review:

Uh oh, with that age group you could have trouble gettin them to stand still to pick teams! Good luck, let us know how it goes...

I'm not above 2 footing an 8 year old haha

Introduce yourself as Death, the Destroyer of Worlds. That'll get their attention.

I'm sure he's lurking somewhere

I haven't seen Dylan on here for over a week - maybe he's attempting his world record attempt or perhaps he's just forgotten he's a member of this community Even if we can't scramble something together in time for the GameBlast event; there is an easy way of donating through the justgiving site. I get paid at the end of the week so I will weigh in with a few notes from my PS4 games fund. I donated a fiver earlier instead of buying the Hitman Franchise which made me feel very happy

We could get a ForeverGaming 24 hour stream going. I'm sure a few of us (especially Dylan ) would be up for it. Either way I'd really like to help out somehow.

Well a Peltier, in an environment like that, is like lighting a firecracker and then trying to make it not destroy itself. They're an incredibly clever design but without a proper environment to regulate them in, they'll burn out before you know it. I can guarantee that no more than an hour of running that fan, the peltier would've burned out. They can power small devices like in the vid. At a guess I'd say about USB power at most, so a weak phone charge or similar. You could probably boil a cup of water if you had the required equipment to keep the temps stable, but you'd be looking at a considerable amount of time for it to boil. To be perfectly frank, you'd be better off with a solar panel and a rechargeable battery for darkness.

In my limited experience so far it's not been too bad. IMO miles better than COD community and alot less focused on K/D YMMV

Yep, give us a shout.

I think Mata is a class player, and how a player of his quality doesn't get regular first team football I don't know. Would be a great signing for United but as a Liverpool fan I'd be happier if he stayed on Chelseas' bench

one of my proudest moments http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/battlereport/show/4/426046464433915008/825647771/

Well played Tam, well played.

I know Euan Mines is the 29th. Cal I wish you could come over so we could make random women feel awkward again.

COD in "it doesn't work" shocker. I still don't get the whole Facebook thing. I wonder if Google wanted royalties to use YouTube.

It's broken for COD. My understanding is that one tap gets you your last 15 minutes game play. This worked for Killzone but COD just plucks a game previously out of its arse that you did shit in. You can't upload to YT, just Facebook. You can view the files on the PS4, It sits in a folder under your profile until you go in and physically delete it.

The one thing that jumps out at me is beware of making images blurry, the subject look fake and creating different texture areas within an image. When you airbrush and/or use layers at different opacities over one another you start losing texture in the image. Different images have different textures going on in them depending on areas of exposure to light, if they’re color or B&W etc... A great way to combat this is by using selections and adding grain. (Filter/Texture/Grain) Again images are different some have large grain some small, you can fuck with the settings in PS. But by adding grain you can reintroduce texture back into an image by using a layer at like 2-15% depending on areas. Take her cheek for example. If you have 20 layers for her cheek and you have it looking good but there is no texture select the 20 cheek layers copy and merge the 20 layers into 1 and add grain to that over top of the 20 original layers. Then mess with that layers opacity to dial it in. If you mess around with it what I’m suggesting will become clear. Adding low opacity grain to areas you’ve airbrushed will bring the image back close to original. I’m sure you’ve seen a porn image or 5,000 where the girl is so airbrushed that she looks like silly putty. Over all I think they’re good!

I thought West Ham were going to steal a win in the last few minutes but apparently not

How to get attention - resurrect an old thread! You guys still planning on meeting up in February (unless the snow drifts arrive)? We have the builders back soon so I'll be getting closely aquainted Mr Brush and Mrs Roller again but if I can sneak a day pass I might pop down

What really pisses me off on lockers is dumb shits playing engineer or when support & medic don't give ammo / health kits !
