  1. Of course there is, pretty much smack bang in the middle of the first screenshot. Go down the stairs then drop down the hole. To come back up just walk in to the water.
  2. A quick Google suggests there are third party methods for have 2 discord accounts on one PC. However I've no experience with any of them to recommend any so this would be at your own risk and your mileage may vary. Given how easy it is to use Discord on a mobile device, the easiest way (and potentially safest) would be the PC user logs in on the PC and the PS4 user joins using a phone.
  3. The server has been up for about a week already so we've made a start on setting up a base. We've set up on a Savanna plain for now and this is where you'll spawn in as a new player. Early game it's hard to have enough resources to set up big farms so we have a small crop farm, a small automatic melon and pumpkin farm as well as a kelp farm (which can be used as fuel in furnaces) We've also captured and started breeding some animals as needed the food as well as the wool for beds and leather for books. Matt has set up an automatically storage room for the most common items in the game. This just requires dumping everything in a single chest and it will get put in the correct chests. With more chests down the stairs and the potential for some bulk storage to be added in the future. The red and gold rails on the right hand side of the above picture, is a small furnace array. It's only made up of 8 furnaces but put your items in the top minecart and the fuel in the bottom, flick the lever and your items will get evenly distributed amongst the furnaces, smelted and returned to the bottom chest. Effectively this means smelting this 8x faster and great when you need to smelt hundreds of one item. We also have an afk'able mob farm just off shorte that was only finished last night. Mobs in MC give you several important things so it's useful to have an automatic way to harvest these drops. Due to lack of resources,the farm is quite small but ultimately will be 4x the size of what you see here. And of course, the drops from the mob farm are automatically sorted too 😄 Plenty more still to do but this is a good start 🙂
  4. With the announcement of the Minecraft better together update which supports cross play we've chatted about having an FG server. Last time though we never pulled the trigger as it still hadn't been rolled out to all platforms. Chatting to Matty @Misneach_ the other day about quite enjoying playing on a vanilla server, he checked and the better together is now across all platforms. So PC, PS4/5. Xbox's, Switch, phones and tablets alike can all play together on the same server and with discord available for free, it's easy to all chat together too. What is Minecraft? I think most people know of the game but having had a few conversations with FG'ers not everyone knows the game. In short, Minecraft is an open world sandbox game with the aim to traverse and survive the 3 dimensions and ultimately kill the 2 bosses, the Wither and Ender Dragon. Along the way you can take the short route, the long, manually mine and harvest resources or set up automatic farms, build, trade, fight - it's up to you. How to join; If you're on console or mobile device, the version you download will be the correct version. For PC, you will need to make you download the version which in most places it is referred to as the "Windows 10 version" (if you want to cross play do NOT get the java edition). If you're new to MC on the PC then you will need to buy it however, if you had an old java account you could, and maybe still can, claim a free Windows 10 copy. Actually joining the server, you will need an invite, however Matt has set the server up as friends of friends, so one of us already on the server should be able to chuck an invite your way if you want to join. We just need your Microsoft account name to send you a friends request and invite. I'm sure there's something important I'm missing but any questions just ask and I'll update this post to include the Q&A's.
  5. I’m with Dave, Minecraft is always a relaxing choice that I’ve spent far too much time on across the various mod packs. Though currently trying to play on 2 vanilla servers and a modded one is tricky. Sim racing is another go to of mine usually playing Assetto Corsa or Assetto Corsa Competizione. I don’t play them enough but games I can play any time and waste hours on too.
  6. Quite annoyed about you getting pole 😆 I bailed out of a couple of laps thinking my time wouldn't have been beaten. Shame both you and Lee got the strategy wrong as I think you could have had a good fight for 2nd or 3rd. The second race was a good one too, I made hard work of winning it considering my speed advantage but it was fun passing and repassing people for the win 😄
  7. Haha I know but of course I’m going to always be against a rule created solely to stop me 😆
  8. Reminds me, came across a new group listening to some youtube playlists and they're great. Definitely a bit of Dio going on in Heaven falls too. Though on the subject of covers, I've been enjoying Exit Eden recently too
  9. I'm always a bit dubious of statements such as the leadership is exclusively male and white. While no doubt a true fact, given the experience required to get to executive level (which is what I'm presuming they mean by 'leadership') then I imagine you can struggle to find someone who isn't white and male as that's who has the requisite experience because that's how the company was hiring 30-40 years ago. However that aside as it's far from the biggest issue raised for Activision Blizzard in this report. The industry does seem to going from one negative to another recently (loot box gambling, crunches and working conditions and now this) I do wonder if it will require a company the size of Activision Blizzard folding to actually bring about a change in what, as times goes on, seems to be a more and more toxic industry to work in.
  10. Now you mention it, I do vaguely recall something about a different BOP for ovals. It would certainly go some way to explain the speed of your Beetle. I fully expected the lead to be between myself and Phil (and anyone else that managed to keep the tow) as the Toyota and Nissan both have great top speeds while you would be nowhere. It's a shame you've had a couple of bad races as it's fun racing you though in your absence Mike has been keeping me company and it was a good race for the lead. The Supra is a pig to get off the line and left me chasing Mike for the lead and, while I could easily follow and I knew my ultimate pace was faster, around Sardegna is was tricky to find somewhere to pass and I only did when Mike made a mistake. A mistake from me almost let Mike back in it too but luckily for me it was as the hairpin so didn't leave any room for Mike to pass and ending up costing him time too. I then banged in the fastest lap of the race to open the gap but damn it if wasn't a close run thing for most of the race. I have to say, I don't like Mike having this ideas of grandeur of finishing higher than third, it's unnatural 😄 Regarding your times though Kiwi, did you enable BoP? The amount of times I've tested in time trial and been happy with my times to only realise I failed to enable BoP. Saying that though, there is some weird thing about different sessions or game modes giving different grip (or something else) as times can vary so much. I think it was the Gr2 race at Alsace last season, practising with Phil the night before and going great. But come practise before the race, I couldn't get within 2 seconds of my times of the night before. Qualifying starts and instantly match my practise times from the night before again.
  11. Unacceptable! Tell her she needs to go back in time, climb back in her mother’s womb and come out a different day.
  12. Doubt I’ll bother chasing numbers too much, I did it back on the day when I was watercooling and it was tedious enough the first time. However, I’m always up for some Biggus Dickus.

    What a quali from Norris and Russell!!!! Great results for them both and hope Russell can finally get some points.
  14. Agree that was better than ep3. The post credit scene was intriguing too as there’s now 5 Loki’s together. Plus Richard E Grant seems a great choice as a Loki.
  15. With the upcoming summer league, I've added a few more logos to this. Check the OP for details.
  16. So did I Lee, it’s great playing on the ps5 for the quick load times and lack of dropped frames. Though honestly I can’t tell the difference between playing the ps4 version on the ps5 and the actual ps5 version. As for actual ps5 games, I picked up Miles Morales the other day. I got the ultimate edition so playing through the original Spiderman first which does have a ps5 upgrade too.
  17. Similarly to Phil and La, I’d say I’ve been obsessive about a game here and there. Certainly to the point of all my free time being spent on the game. I think that’s where the line is though, even spending all your free time on something can be ok, it’s when yoy deliberately start making time by skipping school, work etc. Though I also find with any hobby of mine, if I’m absorbed in it too much I find myself through burning out or boredom wanting to do my other hobbies more until it breaks the obsession.
  18. Goodwood Gr4 Suzuka Gr2 Kyoto Gr3 Alsace N200 might work but everyone would just pick the Mazda so I say N300 or N400 for something different
  19. Sorry, wer’e picking Toyeugsan Martin so you can’t have any of them. Toyota for us 🙂
  20. I’m down, I got this from the FGFGF a looooooong time ago but never played it.
  21. You’ll have to go some to out curse @slamminbones 😆
  22. Hey! I’m not the only one that’s done no stop races. However, if pit stops are optional and it will benefit certain cars. If they’re mandatory, it’ll will benefit different ones. I’m not sure if one way is more balanced than the other so don’t care which way we go.
  23. So Tokyo wet is the 40 minute race? Or is race 1 the full Nordschlieffe?
  24. The pass is good value though surprised you aren’t just picking up the xbox games on PC. No doubt the xbox is a good console though and arguably the best this gen so enjoy. Certainly easier to find somewhere to fit the xbox than ps5 🤣
