Morning all. I drank far too much last night. You are not alone. Terrible scenes. Any chance of putting up your avatar from the 'other place'?

4 a.m. Neptune's Pride... in answer to an idiot failing to protect a valuable star I'd given him, and who'd tried to defend his stupidity in not at the least breaking it's warp gate... "Rubbish and atrocious tactics. Your competence is far exceeded by your ambition. Strategically, you have exposed all of us; you, me and Spinnerbaits on that strap line from Mirfak to Alnitak to high speed attacks from the AI at a time when we have inbound attacks from. SonOfBlob. Tactically; offensive odds atm of your ships are 7 vs 6+1 = 7, parity; defensively they are 7+1 = 8 vs 6. So instead of your 173 ships (now attacking the AI at Ice) taking out 232 ships in defence, you're opting to attack, taking out 171 AI ships. So you've gifted a gate and 59 ships to the AI. His reply "They'l be easy enough to deal with. Also keep in mind that i moved my ships before the weaps upgrade. Whereas before, i would have lost them all." "Unbelievable. Stupid. Arrant. Garbage. IDIOCY - 'before the weaps upgrade', the odds more greatly favoured defence." Sadly I'm not allowed to call him a useless cunt. I am fighting an heroic losing battle against two of the best players in the game to try and give the others a chance of victory, of which this useless tool is one... Even Spock has his limit...

I don't know how I feel about this.

🐛 👩⚕️
In other news, with the weather closing in and the nights getting crisper I’m seriously thinking about getting into EVE online. I’ve had a few failed attempts in the past, but really space spreadsheets, what’s not to like?
OTTM -Dragon quest on the lite. I really do appreciate the lite, it’s much more kind on the hands than the big boy unit, and I basically only play with myself handheld, no TV group sessions

Morning!
Ganes: I stayed up too late to play more Link's Awakening, but at least I made some progress. Now out of the Catfish's Maw, ready for the Face Shrine. This is the point where all but a very small part of the map becomes accessible, so Link's got his work cut out. He is, however, already pretty OP at this point.
I was thinking about how the density of secrets on a small map and the ingenuity with which they are hidden makes this game the ideal first Zelda game. Nothing to do with the fact that it was my first Zelda, oh no. But it really teaches you to poke your nose everywhere and to recognise the subtle hints that something is worthy of investigation. It's maybe because of this that I got so much out of BOTW, while Bloggie (RIP) had a lot of difficulties with exactly that aspect of the game.
(It has to be said that they made some things a bit easier in the remake, like, now you can see heart pieces in the water?! It's very pretty, but in my days you had to work hard for your heart pieces, bloody kids, get off my lawn *shakes stick* has anyone seen my glasses?)
Teevee: Back to old Midsomer Murders for now.

Tuffers was banging on about this character from Rival Schools being a bit 'sexy'. Filthy boy.

Is the switch any good? The price drop on the lite has got me interested and my gaming time is shortened a bit recently so mobile gaming is much more appealing

Out for lunch. Burger. Was nice. Mrs Crank had the roast beef. It was tremendous. I'm jealous.
Games. Remote play PS4 on the laptop. Then some Nvidia Geforce Now Apex Legends. Then some proper Division on PS4.

Yes the switch is great. On the couch avoiding the family, on the train avoiding the other commuters, at your lunch break avoiding your workmates.
Also ideal for couch co-op games. Though not the new mini one for that.
Some wee guy in the restaurant we're in playing one while his folks eat/chat.

The switch is a godsend if you can’t get much time on the TV, which I don’t. But there are also games only on the switch that make it worthwhile.
