    I know, it's like shouting into the void, but who else am I going to tell ... Beef And Dairy Network Podcast It's the number one podcast for those involved or just interested in the production of beef animals and dairy herds. Short episodes, after a few you'd know whether it's your cup of milk. Episode five is a good indicator I'd say.
  2. https://grumpygamer.com/april_fools_2022 Those comments under the announcement are a joy of confusion and happiness and lots of confusion. I really like MI3. The old one.
  3. Tacoma from Fullbright

    Steam: P84XF-Z8CQ2-ZLAMN (Just bought a Bundle, already have it.) (Mh, four years since the podcasts went away, still miss them from time to time.)
  4. Mh, this sucks. Just read the news on RPS and came here to, I don't know, read something from people who care. Thanks for the Duncan Fyfe Twitter thread Patrick R, he really did care. Very fascinating and sad. I kind of thought that everyone involved at least found something they'd liked to work on more and that's why it died. Mh!
  5. Idle Thumbs Hiatus

    I never was very active, now even less so, but still, this forum is the best! And the bestest part: Idle Santa! The joy of sending gifts, handpicked, locale little things, media I like, stupid stuff and sweets to some strange place, and then receive (in my case first receive, far to late send) awesome presents was one of the highlights of the three years it ran. Thanks to all who participated, thanks to N1njaSquirrel for organizing, and in general thanks to all the people in this forum!
  6. Dying Light

    We figured it out. Thanks for the offer osmosisch, thanks for the help TychoCelchuuu! (I really thought that was my unique Steam ID. What is my Steam ID then? Am I not special?) Tomorrow (20 GB later) I'll be able to parkour my way around and through lots of zombies. Exciting times!
  7. Dying Light

    Thanks a bunch! The name's 'castorp' as well. As I don't see Dying Light on Steam, I don't know wether there are different versions or packages one can buy. RPS said Steam has the "Dying Light Enhanced Edition" for £13.19/€16.49/$19.79/67% off - that's (most probably) the version I want, with all the nice updates and expansions out there. Just PM me your PayPal info and I send the money right away.
  8. Dying Light

    Last try, after this I'll let it rest, just, the Steam Summer Sale ends soon. Anyone? As I said, money up front.
  9. Dying Light

    Sorry for digging up this very old thread. I need help with buying this game. Would any of you nice folks be willing to buy it on Steam for me and send me the key? Money up front, via PayPal. As a German person in Germany I can't buy it via Steam because it's heavily age restricted. It's not forbidden for me to own it, I could probably buy it in a shop (games in shops, crazy, right!) showing my ID - if I was willing to look for such a shop, actually find one that sells it and wrap my head around the resurfacing concept of games as something you can touch - and it's possible to buy a key from legitimate sites and activate it, but the one (probably Austrian) site in mind that specifically caters to silly Germans with their silly laws with this offer still sells it for 40 bucks regardless of summer sales or the passing of time. I'm not (very) active here, but am a member of this fine community for ages, participated in the fantastic Idle Santa twice and both times sent my presents just a tad late - what I'm saying is: I'm legit. And very over eighteen. Thanks!
  10. I'm just catching up with season two and wanted to thank you for this great podcast! I hope even though it is pretty quiet in here everybody is listening to Tone Control. Oh, and Gone Home and Tacoma are fantastic also. I convinced friends to play Gone Home who don't play games, and they loved it.
  11. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    This triggers the dancing-part of my brain very much: Bishop Briggs - River Fantastic, also this video: Bat For Lashes - What's A Girl To Do?
  12. Games giveaway

    Mh, does anybody happen to have a spare Alan Wake for Steam? I just found out that I no longer have the option to buy or not buy this game, and even though I consciously and unconsciously managed to not buy and/or play this game for more than five years, the fact that stupid things now force my hand in that regard make me want to own and probably even play it. I have a spare Kentucky Route Zero for Steam, if anyone wants it.
  13. I present you the awesome gifts my Secret Santa sent me: Thanks a lot Mythalore! The fantastic little Christmas Penguin will from now on adorn all the Christmas trees in my home forever. Lindor are pretty much my favorite sweets, which makes it a bit spooky that you sent them. Toblerone is great too. (Even the Brexit kind.) When I'm finished with Lovecraft I will get into 'The Way Inn'. From what you said about it it sounds like my kind of book. Paperboy belongs in a museum! When I was young there still where cassettes for music - but for games, crazy. (The gifts got a bit banged up in transport.) Sorry for writing so late, the package arrived before Christmas and I'm just slow. Glad you like your gifts gerbilsinspace! Not that I'm in any way connected to them. (A friend told me that your Secret Santa might have forgotten to sign with his Thumb name. Or he just forgot that he did sign with his Thumb name, who knows.)

    The Bugle is back. And on a schedule so far. Without John Oliver, instead different hosts and Andy. The first few episodes I really really liked, some fantastic stuff. I miss John, but the other hosts are great so far, the chemistry is still there, some of the hosts even have a stand up history with Andy as well. I'm happy. If you enjoyed it before, give it a listen!
