    Or if you bought it back in 2012 like I did, you can play it right now.

    *sigggghhhhh*
    What do I do now? Stupid ISP has something in place blocking external traffic pinging myself? Can't run a server, and I'm not a networking guy. Sixsixsevenseven I call on you. Halp.

    Playing a marksman character in Skyrim in a nutshell:
    quest
    quest
    find good arrow
    arrow farming
    arrow farming
    arrow farming
    quest
    arrow farming
    quest
    more arrow farming


    I just spent 15 minutes standing next to a guard firing arrows and picking them up. 10/10 would farm ebony arrows again

    Reverse up it or get front drive. Slow application of power should get drive wheels over it no problem.


    Trucks aren't really any better on ice than cars. Fwd works better than rwd on ice anyway. 4wd of course wins.

    Ping requests are often blocked.
    Ping letsmakerobots.com and you will find 100% loss yet the site works fine.


    If its your own machine on your network, ping localhost from that machine, should give 0 to 2ms ping. Then run ipconfig to find its local ip address, ping it from another machine on network, should be close to 0 unless WiFi is involved in which case it may be higher (over 100 for my poor old wireless router running so many devices from a single antenna, 20 for a router I was using last night with 3 devices for quake, Ethernet was only 1). Then of course check port is forwarded on your router for pings from external sources and that you are using the public ip address and correct port number. then give up and use Hamachi (don't, I hate it).

    It's on a bed of ice, I put it in reverse, it spins, put it in drive, it spins. It's got something reminiscent of summer tires on it, that could be the problem.

    i'm honestly not paying for gtav now whenever it will be released on pc, but i'm still gonna play it. XD

    if it was indeed worth all of the extra pushed back release dates and it is perfect, i will pay.

    hopefully they don't pull this with just cause 3, and i heard some former criterion devs may help for driving stuffs, which sounds super awesome : D

    Fucking school system. Out Monday-Thursday of last week, for some reason Friday we had to go (I didn't because dad said "you had the whole week off"), and Monday we went, yesterday and today out due to like an inch of snow. Lemme tell ya, that's nothing. Wait until the South gets 6 feet overnight. ;)

    I drove in snow on summer tyres, quit stomping the gas, let the truck idle its way off the ice.

    I do, it can't find any traction, it's all completely smooth.
    Meh, not important, the Corolla can get out probably.

    I now have school wifi for my tablet. Woo. Using it now, just before i leave, feels pretty nice having internet at school on a screen that is bigger than 4.3 inches.

    His location seems to say Georgia.

    Pinging localhost works, pinging the router works, pinging the PC from another PC on the wireless network doesn't. :confused:

    The fact that you expected more from norton means you deserved it.
