Thanks guys, I didn't want to delete your posts without your consent.

I haven't reported it yet. I found the video footage and the number plate isn't on the front of the vehicle and the guy is wearing a black helmet. So I doubt they can identify them. The insurer says because its a crime and the other vehicle wasn't involved, there is no one to claim against.

So I have to pay the excess on my policy, lose my no claims and have my insurance go up next year.

This year cost $1800 already despite having 3 years no claims. Insurance is a scam.

Good thing Raven did your dirty work.  My right of free speach has been severly impeded by this onesided termination of my opinion and valuable contributions.  I also suspect Raven of tampering with my memory, as I seemingly can't recall if I did or did not comment on your story.  Nyaa

Yes they are.  I've had some issues over the last 2 years and it's very clear that all they care about is quickly paying as little money as possible.

GG you have a high enough rank you can delete your own posts. I miss one day I miss the drama Nyaa

Driving around Australia right guys. Still working 3 hours a day, so it's not a real vacation, but it is stimulating seeing a new part of the country.

I went to Foolz' City and left the day he landed back in Australia. What a asshole I am, but it's just the way it worked out (family runs your life, not you once you have one).

Okay, so on the next podcast I am going to ask him this question, but I'd love to hear your views on this:

"There is some merit that some games garner more cultural relevance they longer they run and some games don’t really “Start” at their first release.

Of these franchises, to you which is the “first” relevant entry in the series:

Final Fantasy

GTA

Assassins Creed

Call of Duty

Doom

Super Mario Bros

Zelda

Tekken

Fallout

Elder Scrolls

Max Payne

Halo"

Add your own series to this list.

I finished up Tomb Raider 2013. What a fantastic adventure game that sometimes outdoes Uncharted in the spectacle. My absolute favorite moment is when Lara gets a grenade launcher and threatens to come after and kill everyone. The pirates know they fucked up. So good.

It is a beautiful game.

Looked at my collection last night. I bet if I completely stopped buying games today, it would take me 10+ years finish my backlog. Sad

I’m glad I’m not the only one. Will be adding another one to the pile when I buy Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door for the Switch in the next 9 days. LOL

I always have a hard time grasping that Final Fantasy 7 is considered the first relevant game in the series. The original was a pretty popular NES game. Sold over a million copies worldwide, and actually sold more in the United States than in Japan. And I think if you disregard pack-ins, it's it's one of the top 50 selling games on the console.

FF7 was the most popular RPG at the time of its release, but I wouldn't consider it the first relevant game in the series. That's silly. I liked FF6 more anyway.

Everyone knows that Mystic Quest was the first relevant Final Fantasy game, and still the only relevant one to be honest. Nyaa

I'm still bitter about Mystic Quest. I could have had any game I wanted for Christmas. What did I ask for? That piece of crud.

Yeah I will give the game that. The soundtrack was pretty great. The music for the final boss battle was absolutely kickass.

There's a rumoured Lego Zelda set in the works featuring the Decu Tree.  It will include green or pink leaves so you can model it after the Deku Tree from OoT or Botw.  There'll be minifigures representing both games as well.  All for a measily €299.

My kids will be all over this.  Wish it was a less pricy set though.  Also, there are more differences in design between OoT and Botw's Deku Tree than just the colour of the leaves?

Tried Another Crab's Treasure again yesterday.  Still couldn't beat the first boss (blue knight like lobster when you get your first 'shell').  I've improved though.  But then again, I'm expecting to feel no accomplishment when I beat him, just relief.  Not sure if that'll be enough to keep playing though.
