  1. That just reminds me of The Specials song ๐Ÿ˜„ This might be breaking the quote maximum number as its near enough an essay ๐Ÿ˜‚ but i thought i'd share Steve Jobs' last quotes when he was in hospital. Perspective is a fine thing right now in the world we live in. โ€œI reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In othersโ€™ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to. At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death. In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of god of death drawing closer โ€ฆ Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth โ€ฆ Should be something that is more important: Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyoneโ€™s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me. What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love. Thatโ€™s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands. What is the most expensive bed in the world? Sick bed โ€ฆ You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost โ€” Life. When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading โ€” Book of Healthy Life. Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.โ€
  2. I'll make sure GT is updated today and try and get some laps in later. Is there any way to see if i've already got some lap times in on that track, like a history of my fastest laps? @phil bottle not sure why you couldn't invite that guy, i thought anyone could grab an invite from our discord? I'll look into it. You got that guy on your friend lists? Maybe he could swing by here and do an intro ๐Ÿ˜€
  3. The news just keeps coming in for 2020 don't it?! I was reading Twitter whilst the whole thing exploded. Mixer streamers apart from possibly Ninja and Shroud have really been bitten in the arse good and proper. I think the major problem is that to create competition against Twitch is nigh on impossible. If Microsoft and Facebook have gazillions to spunk on content creators but are no way near them then I don't see why they would continue their interest in it. Just a shame that so many smaller streamers trying to find a career and spending money on building some sort of base on Mixer now don't have many options. I don't see any pull towards Facebook Gaming whatsoever. So many people don't trust them any longer due to how they use their data and i've only got an account because the FG page plus a few family members I haven't seen in 30 years. I really can't see as many viewers following King Gothalion over to FBG when a lot didn't leave Twitch to go to Mixer.
  4. How many dice are in a set @Middle Class Caveman ?
  5. Thought it would be good to have a thread with our finest and most memorable days on The Hunt on our FG adventures, win or lose! I'll start it off with possibly the best night i've ever had on this on Sunday night just gone. 4 wins in a row. Yes, 4. And they weren't all just smash and grab, no one left on the server jobs either. First one was with @MrBiron as a 2 player squad where we managed to kill the boss (I believe it was the Assassin?) with an Axe and decided to take the long way around some Hunters to the furthest away extraction for the win. Next one was then with Marc @J&B and Biron although he had to leave half way through because of his inabilities to close his Fridge door ๐Ÿ™ˆ. We picked up all the clues for the Spider but then realised that a team were starting to banish the boss, so we looped around to get the 3 clues for the Butcher. It was the furthest away from the extraction but we carried on. Weirdly, when we got to the Butcher it was already dead! Sounds like the other team killed it and carried on to get the other bounty. Seeing that we got it, they fecked off leaving us to get a ton of XP and extract the bounty successfully! @Nutcuttlit then jumped on with Marc and me to complete what I can only describe as an awesome 2 rounds of Hunting. It may have felt even better for me because I took out a bunch of Hunters, muiltiple teams at once whilst we were all converging on the first boss. We ended up killing the remaining Hunter squad which bagged us the first Gauntlet of the night! Then came a much more defending round whereby we got the first Spider boss quickly and moved on to the second Assassin boss when teams started to pull in close to us. Once we downed it we were surrounded by at least 2 squads of players, trying to grab some loot. Nutty set the traps, Marc had pulled out to watch and cover us from a distance and whilst Nutty covered the larger entrance, I hung over the bounty with remaining Dark Sight. A quick squeeze of it and you could 3 Hunters imminently approaching. Then all hell broker loose. 2 Hunters entered right in front of me. The Nagant silenced pistol downed them after hitting some traps along the way. Then 3 Hunters came from multiple sources. Nutty chucked a bomb to down one but then got exploded by a Revelli shotgun or something like that which was pretty powerful. Whilst he was getting shot I took down a Hunter next to an adjacent door and then tried to come to Nutty's aide. The guy was trying to hide and shoot me so I managed to crouch around and take him out with a few shots to resurrect Nuttscratcher to end the massacre. XP farmed the nearby towns blasting everything away to end with back to back Gauntlet runs and 4 successful extractions in a row. I don't think i've took that many Hunters out and grabbed that many bounties all in one night before. Everything just fell into place. Great callouts, great teamwork and such a rewarding night! First Gauntlet run Second Gauntlet run Looking forward to hearing more about others escapades! GGFG!
  6. I had an Audi A3 once and it was something I always wanted. I think they just exude calmness and perfection whilst not having to razz it down the school lane like most chavs do. Unfortunately thats what puts me off most Mercs and BMWs - the people that have driven them around our area.
  7. Thats awesome @McNasty ! You know I don't usually go for mini emulator stuff but I can't deny they look pretty sweet. SF2 Turbo Tournament was my first ever Street Fighter game, i struggle playing the slower original versions after you've played that. I think the Switch super helps when we've gone away on little trips now. I actually take the docking station with us just in case there is a TV that it can be connected to. I think this is hilarious! Dhalsim was super annoying with those long kicks. Just take E-Honda and spam 100 hand slap at them. Then they'll be sorry! You ever thought of a Switch, Bill?
  8. I would looooove to get this tunnel done but with the ever pressing Alpha 19 Reset hanging over us, i aint sure its worth it. When do you think a full reset is the right time? I definitely think we should get us all on for a horde night. With at least 4 of us on the zombies might go a little more crazy than before....lets see how many walls and ceilings last! @Greboth @phil bottle you up for a big one? ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Each season we should check to see what is decent to get your hands on to help us know what to look out for or/and grind for. You might want to add any connecting builds that work e.g. Guns that have become awesome to use because of mods from the Artefact, etc. Lets hear what you think we need to go for!
  10. You can see the fitness making a massive impact on Prem players. So many 0-0's already and the other games they've been extremely bland. I think the fake sound has been the most interesting and fun bit of them all so far. I also managed to purchase the pass to watch Blackburn play on Saturday and I wasn't disappointed. We went 1-0 down after playing all over Bristol City and immediately responded when you thought it wouldn't be our day. A comprehensive 3-1 win puts us now 1 point off playoffs with 8 to play. Lets continue to go under the radar and pick the points up. Maybe there will be something good coming out of 2020 ๐Ÿคž
  11. I'm purposefully not reading all your comments yet as i do want to experience this for myself. I've got away with seeing no spoilers so far so hopefully it'll be worth the wait. Regardless of the outcome i think the game will be still be worth the time sink alone.
  12. I didn't realise we have the exact same car Dave! My Father-in-law sorts the cars we have out when its time. I usually have an old second hand car to just get me from A to B which allows the wife to have a slightly better one. We normally used to go for 2 second hand cars but I caved a few years back and managed to find a Kia Stonic that was the cheapest possible deal on a new finance car for a larger family car with no deposit.
  13. Sorry I couldn't make it but I did put the stream up in the background and tried to listen where I could. Phil being a shady snake by standing outside the room and asking others to check the bookcase ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'll echo @phil bottle and thank Elliott for his top effort in doing this. I think that it definitely could work on calmer days and nights in the future and its good to see something so different to what we usually do.
  14. They followed the disappointing news with a positive message, even though i don't think many were annoyed at all. Looks like your PS4 copy will get a Day one patch so you can play the game on your PS5 for no more money. A nice sweetener if you buy early and PS5 comes out around the similar time of launch.
  15. Managed to get a highlights video up from last week's carnage. Its in the Video section if you haven't seen it @G_dub52 @slamminbones @Stretch616 @techno @phil bottle @tronic44 @Greboth @crispymorgan @Findmartin @phil bottle @Spacedeck @Tadnothad @TonyAE86 @Diddums @Ajay1997
  16. Heard last night didn't go to plan as the game didn't let you party in big groups which is a bummer. Hope it was still a good evening though whatever you ended up playing ๐Ÿ‘
  17. Highlights of our FG Friday Wreckfest night where 4 hours of carnage is all wrapped into 11 minutes of fun and lolz. Enjoy!
  18. Yeah that's my only concern and it was only a little idea to see if a little tourney wouldve worked this way. If we get more people over time we can always think about it again. ๐Ÿ‘
  19. I get what you mean about parting money on these, especially if GT7 is quite close. However, looks like GT Sport is ยฃ12 and AC is ยฃ20 so both are even cheaper together than AAA game right now. 12 for GT Sport is a ridiculous bargain. Oh, and clearly Euan's managed to keep himself around the place in other ways then! ๐Ÿ˜‚
  20. Sorry, I should've stated that it can still be done on time trials. Just the 2 people are up against each other on based on their fastest times. That way it's not just about being the fastest, just beating the other person's time trial time.
  21. Omg @J4MES OX4D , have you seen this hilarious thread that someone has done with the Oxford United team in an alternate universe?! Epic work. https://twitter.com/FantasticMrOx/status/1273883838364766208?s=19
  22. Do you just want to do time trials or we could do a little versus matchups that change each week? I was thinking of enabling the tournaments section on here and we could test it out with this e.g. Week 1 - Greebs vs Phil, Lee vs George, etc. Could be a little running series we have and show it all off in a mini league format? Just some thoughts to make it interesting and possibly open it up to others that might enjoy that type of format too. (Plus this way we get to win some weeks rather than Greebs buttfuck us from Not London all the way to London). I also need to buy AC.
  23. Thanks mate, will take a look whilst i'm reviewing the place atm ๐Ÿ‘
