I've ordered a new PC case. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07RQW7W9P/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1This one will replace my current PC downstairs but will largely be made up of old parts, I will then move my current PC upstairs to my office. I have an old B450m-A motherboard which when Bios flushed should be able to take a 5600x CPU further down the line. Then when I finally get a new graphics card my 5700xt can go in the downstairs rig, but for now my GTX 660 will have to suffice. That was just a noise |

My last rig had a Corsair case. Ottm. Fuck Roblox. I fucking hate it. Pile of shite. Can't wait till the child grows out of it. Racked up £2k on your credit card? |

Not if you know where that quote came from hint: famous travellers (my quote may not be entirely accurate). Don't be thick in front of me. It's amazing how the mind fades when Mr. Tiddles is about, how was your McD's? |

We'll miss you, Captain Oz, but we'll move faster without you. Not if you know where that quote came from hint: famous travellers (my quote may not be entirely accurate).

In other news, the weekly Trails in the Sky SC playthrough I spectate reached the finale last night. It is just the best. Small spoiler (not that anyone else here is playing it and if so why not?), but among other things the discussion sparked by the in-game events took us to some research on steam powered tanks. Did you know about this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_tankSC(= Second Chapter) has turned out to be remarkably relevant to the current geopolitical situation. I can't tell you much about it because everything is a major spoiler. Just play Trails, dammit. Unlike Dip you won't regret it. |

Hello,
I spent 6.5 hrs today in motorway traffic. At least I have finally escaped the grim north of England.

The only thing I didn't like about that game of Diplomacy was waiting for the last person to click 'Ready'.
Hybrid warfare.

I liked that game of Diplomacy, though I didn’t really do much. Mucked about in and around France. Threatened Chumbles, then rolled over and showed him my soft belly. I was convinced Turkey was Tenthen. I don’t know why now … Once more I get mistaken for Shenguin. Happens a lot in Dip. |

I thought you were down with that lingo. Apologies. |

Also you had 'liked' a couple of Diplomacy posts and I thought I had identified everyone else ... I originally had Chumbles as Turkey because Turkey was one of the first countries I got a message from. Chumbles had set up the game and I thought he would be Jonesing to start. |

A Serious Question. Apart from Chumbles does anyone enjoy playing Diplomacy? |

I like Diplomacy a lot, but the waiting can be a bit much. It can also be all-consuming.
I was able to not be consumed this time ...

After the first few turns you know the lay of the land. You know what's what. You've got the cut of each person's jib. You've guessed the cut of each person's jib ... |

You've got the cut of each person's jib. You've guessed the cut of each person's jib ... I think that's the element I like though. Debating whether or not to trust someone, then waiting for the next turn to see if they've stitched you up |

I think I maybe prefer the bigger maps. The modern Europe one is good, as is the world one. It just needs people prepared to ready their moves to move the game on ...
