Random Raves XXI: The Server is Working

[mayor]

bought Crusader Kings II yesterday and started/restarted a lot of games today to get feel for it.

finally started a game as Leinster and just made myself King of Ireland.

The clock tells me it is 2:09 and I didn't notice the time... didn't happen to me in a long time. What a game

I now have six Sporcle quizzes with over 1,000 plays.

 

[Takhisis]

1,000 each?

 

[Save_Ferris]

1,000 each?

At least 1,000. I have two published quizzes with 50,000 and 30,000 plays, respectively.

That said, a lot of those are repeat plays.

Finally found that old What Hits?! CD that I had.

So happy.

If this is an April Fools' gag, it's funny as hell.

If not, still funny.

You think? Conan creeps upwards from the bottom of the page.

Got an English competition in a few hours so wish me luck.

 

[Takhisis]

On a Sunday?

 

[NedimNapoleon]

Yes, because we had teacher union strikes and now we have to make up for the lost days so we go to school every first Saturday in the month, and the only available time is on Sundays (to host competitions rather than on Saturday like usual).

 

[Takhisis]

*facepalm* At least they don't take days off your summer. Enjoy it while it lasts, everyone hates high school until they realise what they've grown into is worse.

Proof unions are evil.

I *HATE* unions.

I thought about posting a fake re-conversion story as an April Fool's joke on facebook. Couldn't go through with it though. Guess I'm not as much of a dick as I thought.

 

[choxorn]

That sucks. I remember a couple of teacher strikes here, and we never had to make up those days.

If you gon on Google today, make sure to check out the new 'I'm Steering Lucky' feature.

 

[NedimNapoleon]

I won first place.

 

[Verarde]

In 7 hours, I will be on a flight to England.

I discovered a new, fun game. I wont tell you the name because I want you guys to guess what it is. Here is a few hints. First, you have a gun, but you don't use it to kill living things (people or animals). Second, both the original game and the sequel came out within the last five years. Third, it's spawned quite a few memes.

If I've already told you what it is via PMs don't tell anyone else.

Either ways have fun guessing.

Seems like a trick question . . .
