I uploaded a video to Youtube. The quality was REAL terrible. :(

Dangitall, I was playing Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising for most of the day, and I made a lot of progress through this one hard mission. All day, on one mission.

Then BOOM, game resets for no reason, and I lose all my data. DAMN! Maybe I'm spoiled, but I HATE games that don't have an auto-save feature nowadays.

The reason I loved both the Fire Emblem games on the GBA SP was that they auto-saved every single turn! Every single one! It made the game a little frustrating at times, but atleast I never lost a whole day's worth of progress!
I like autosave when it's in addition to regular saving on a game like that.  Damnit, I don't want to have to do it all again because I made a mistake on day 4!

I've been save-scumming like crazy when playing Fire Emblem.

I'm talking about a propper, photoshopped shoop da whoop. Not a shitty one from paint.

*Is offended.*
Paint is by no means shitty. If you need to just paste a transparent laz0r .png over a picture, it more than gets the job done.

And as for photoshop, it's more complicated, but gets the job done in a shinier manner. Select, copy, paste over photo, rotate to your needs. If you're feeling fancy, distort the laz0r pic to wrap over the dude's head or crop it with the pen tool so it goes "behind" his hair.

Why does nobody play chess nowadays?

We have a chessboard at work, but all my coworkers care for, is that stupid table soccer.

Probably because it requires too much thinking for most people.  :(

Likewise, I can't get anybody in my family to play with me, nor most of my friends. Only one of my assistant teachers for a college course plays, and we rarely see each other much.

Huhm.
Maybe I'll be able to find some sort of chess club in Vienna, that is willing to take in an amateur.

I remember having a friend, who used to play on tournaments. She kicked my ass two out of three times, but it sure was fun :D

Also Thud!, that game sounds awesome...

TBH, chess bores the hell out of me. It seems far too formal for a combat simulation (but then, it really isn't one, so meh).

I was pretty good at playing Thud! a couple years back, but I haven't seen a game, let alone played, for far too long.

Damn, how could I get the name wrong, considering it's one of my favorite alltimers regarding books?
Edited.

Edit: Ok, it's because that's the german name and I read that version first.

I stopped playing Chess once I picked up Go.
It's like Chess, but easier to learn and way more strategy and tactics.

I haven't had the courage to pick up Go. It seems my mind isn't really suited for that kind of thinking.

Go ain't that difficult. Even made a program that could recreate part of it's rules.

Sadly, since the Games Workshop left, there's nobody around who plays any kind of tabletop or board games D:
