As the title suggest looking for a pencil case that isn't completely kid focused I need a pencil case for study and I want something a little different. I'll need to have the option to get it shopped to Australia, so any postage restrictions might be a problem! Looking for stuff that is retro / tech related / nerdy etc, I can't really find anything on my googlings so far!

Alright cheers guys I'll keep with it, I find it off that people say there are no dice rolls when the weapon stat of accuracy and apparently proficiency come into it. How can a weapon with 70% accuracy not dice roll? If we are both standing still at acceptable range I'm only guaranteed 7/10 to hit....sounds like dice roll to me. I'll aim to get to the 20's this week and see if my perception changes. My solider is still pretty low so might pursue it with him and see how we go.

I'll have another look, but I am definitely of the opinion that when aiming down the sites and firing one bullet from a crouched position I would assume the bullet would fire dead straight. I've watched said straight bullet miss stationary targets. I know you need to lead moving targets but it just feels off. I've just jumped into CSS and BF2 BC2 and can confirm that I apparently can still aim so NFI what's up. Will try again, this game might get put on the back burner for a while I think :| Also does anyone else feel it's a very sparse desolate game, co-op would be a hoot but sp just feels very lonely and bleh.

Really far behind the curve I know but my goal to finish my back log of games is now in full swing. I've played to level 11 in one character and level 5 in the others trying to find a play style that fitted how I wanted to finish the game and I have since worked out what annoys me about this. Normally in loot and grind fests I've played games like WoW in a 3rd person view. As such when I moved to borderlands being in first person I was under the assumption that when I had my cross hairs on the guys head that's what it would hit when more often than not the bullets miss. This has made playing Mordecai early on annoying because I get 4 shots in my sniper then I spend half the time kiting around trying to reload. The soldier is equally annoying because half my clip hits dirt when there is a skag literally licking my crotch.......FUUUUU

Does anyone else find it vexing that a game that is in an FPS perspective doesn't reward me for having already honed my aiming skills in games that require a lot more skill than this. It makes me feel retarded because I've never missed this much in other games. While I am all for RNG what benefit is there playing properly if I have the chance to miss so many attacks >_>

Thanks to this very website I've been inspired into completing my back log of single player games. In part because I've given up addicting multi-player games cold turkey and needed a creative outlet to keep me occupied while still enjoying gaming. As such I started a simple blog I hope to improve on over time. I'd love it if people could subscribe via email to see my updates or subscribe to my YouTube channel. While I have no plans on commercializing my log it would be nice if I wasn't the only person reading it! Without further stalling here is my tentatively named blog:

Backlog Blues

Any constructive criticism is welcome :)

Hi all I've been trying to install the xbmc plugin that giantbomb offers. For some reason when I download the zip file and navigate to the add-ons menu and click install from zip, find the file and hit enter, nothing happens I get no progress bars, no indication that I am it right or wrong it is as if it hasn't noticed my input at all. Bit perplexing as I don't know where to troubleshoot from here, does anyone have any ideas on what I can try, or can you manually install it somehow? I am running the latest release of xbmc and have other addons (like weather plus) working OK.

So I think that my SSD might be dieing I was mucking around on the PC last night an had it lock up, while it was accessing the SSD. I didn't have it lock and Blue Screen but I could see it going that way if I started clicking around frantically like my gf most likely did. For some reason after it crashed it changed my default boot device to another hard drive and not my SSD.......

All fixed. Dinner was ready when I got home she felt that bad. Then I felt bad that she felt bad so I subjected myself to a rom-com...... All is now good with the world.
