One of my model trains had stopped running. When I investigated, I discovered that the motor was missing one of its carbon brushes. I didn't have a spare - so, instead, I just shoved a piece of pencil lead inside there.
It actually worked.

Which country do you live in? Are there lots of aggressive drivers?
I'm in the UK. The other drivers aren't *too* bad here, but TBH, I'm probably one of the bad ones! (I try not to be, but still...)

Transport Fever, which I played earlier this evening.

Wow, that is an incredible collection ๐ฎ .
Wouldn't surprise me if his collection increased in value over the years... the vast majority of them will probably never be worth much, but I suspect a few will increase in value dramatically!ย

You're welcome ๐ .
Glad your issue got sorted! -
Welcome aboard, Lass! I hope you enjoy this place.

Well, my 20s were kinda meh (only a few things worth remembering from them), but my 30s have been pretty good so far - so, I hope I'll have clearer memories of them in 10 or 20 years' time ๐ !

I've always preferred Sonic over Mario, personally. Not sure why: maybe it's because I delight in the inherent contradiction of being a "speedy hedgehog", or maybe it's just because I like blue ๐ .
Still, I'll acknowledge that Mario is the more influential of the two.

Transport Fever, as is often the case these days ๐ย .

The Paradox grand strategy games have some pretty darn dedicated fans... the appeal of those games is narrow, but very deep.ย

(But I guess that's what you get when you make a highly-replayable series of games that are targeted at history nerds!)

I'm 32... looks like I'm one of the older people here, going by the poll results (although I expect some of the "26-30" crowd have aged into the "31-35" bracket since they voted ๐)

PC, since it's always been what I've done most of my gaming on (apart from a brief spell on the Dreamcast in the early 2000s ๐ )

The Turing Test has quite a surprising ending. For most of the game, you play as a character called Ava, who solves puzzles under the watch of a GLaDOS-like entity called "T.O.M.". However, at the end of the game, control switches to T.O.M... and gives you the option of killing Ava and her companion Sarah, or doing nothing and allowing them to shut you down.
Was quite a shock when that happened in my game!

Portal 2 was originally going to have no portals at all. Instead, it was going to use a game mechanic called "F-Stop", which would have involved taking pictures of the in-game world, and then using those pictures to create in-game objects.
The new mechanic received some positive feedback from playtesters - but everyone was disappointed with the absence of portals ๐ .

Hogwarts Legacy
I got sorted into Ravenclaw, like I was hoping ๐ !
-
The Black Cauldron
I'd give it 8/10... it didn't deserve to be the box-office bomb that it was! -
I'd add the ability to read punched cards, just so that nobody can ever complain about lack of backward-compatibility ever again ๐ .
-
Not really... this might be a problem for people who get physical games, but I've only bought digital ones for a decade now. (Indeed, I no longer have any means of playing physical games!)

Yeah, that is pretty excessive... I just bought a new gaming laptop with 'only' 16GB of RAM. So, if this becomes the norm, I won't be able to play most new games properly (unless I upgrade my RAM, which I may very well end up doing at this rate!)

Welcome aboard, Maul! I hope you enjoy this place ๐ .

Yeah, I only use it on a few things, that are important enough to justify the extra layer of protection. When I do, I usually use the SMS method.

Transport Fever - although that was yesterday.
