  1. Nice first post :) You must be one of the few who likes Windows 8 then :cheeky:
  2. I wouldn't say free. I betcha I could buy the game on eBay and then buy the preorder DLC and be well under what you spent :)
  3. I'd wait until shops start announcing pre-order bonuses before pre-ordering it.
  4. Here you go: http://www.thinksugg.com/images/1012410.jpg
  5. New Zealander. A Kiwi is technically NZ's national bird, but is a nickname for the people there as well. So TDUFREAK500 is a Kiwi. /lessonoftheday
  6. You'd think all the lost time faffing about with resolutions you'd be able to justify spending $200 on a 1080p monitor
  7. Welcome Tom. There's a few Aussies and a Kiwi or two here. Just watch the language (and read the rules thread). :)
  8. Haha, you should setup a video camera and YouTube Channel on how you prepare them all :p My latest purchase (in transit) is a tiny Bluetooth 3.0 adapter for my PC at home so that I can wirelessly stream audio from my phone to my 5.1 speakers.
  9. I was thinking of some sort of blend into chocolate mousse. Then there's SB juice and SB smoothies.
  10. Is there a shorter highlights reel video that can be viewed?
  11. Thought that was the case but didn't want to suggest it and be wrong :)
  12. How many ways can you consume strawberries? SB & Cream SB Jam SB Yoghurt SB Frozen Yoghurt SB Ice cream SB on Pavlova SB in cake? SB in cocktails Funny how something that's supposed to be good for you is largely associated with food that isn't :lol:
  13. What do you do with last seasons clothes, Mike? Your wardrobe must be massive :)
  14. Anyone watching the V8 Supercars later today at Darwin? :leaves:
  15. Spent an hour or two changing my car bluetooth unit (from 9W3 to 9W7) so that I can stream music/audio from my phone, and also wanted an excuse to fix a wiring issue that was preventing voice control from working from when I installed the old bluetooth unit 2 years ago, not that I ever use voice control - by the time you push the button for VC you might as well have just pressed the button for the function you wanted). Now I can fire up TuneIn Radio on my phone and listen to BBC4 while driving :p Took some pics to help other VW owners: Fig 1: Remove 4x T20 screws for RNS510, and 4x T20 screws for climate control. Fig 2: Pull the climate controls out a tad and the old 9W3 BT unit is revealed, surrounded in foam to prevent vibrations. Rotate and slide out, then disconnect BT. Fig 3: Some tricky locks on most of those cables to make removing them just that little bit harder (easier if you've done it before). My reverse camera video cable was short, making it even harder for me to get my hand in there. Given that that's the most recent part I installed I'm surprised I didn't give myself more room, unless the cable wasn't long enough. to start with. Fig 4: Photo of the labels for future reference. Purchased this one nearly 2 years ago now. Now that I actually look at the label I can see the AUX pins (1, 2, and 7). That's where my AUX-IN cable is connected (3 harnesses away though). Fig 5: Ummmm, which witch is which again? :p One is the original car connector, one is the MDI retrofit harness that I added, and another is for the BT. Fig 6: Got everything connected and hid the other two harnesses below the bracket that the HU rests on (otherwise you won't be able to push it back far enough). Original car QLC plugs into MDI QLC plugs into BT QLC plugs into the RNS510. I had the MDI and BT harnesses around the other way before since my old 9W3 BT harness didn't have as many wires passing through). Fig 7: Connect everything back up for testing, don't screw in until you know everything works. I had no audio going to the speakers first time, which had me confused as to what I couldn't connected incorrectly. As I went to unplug a QLC in the chain I heard another click, one of the connectors in that QLC must've popped out, worked fine after that. Fig 8: Finding my phone. Didn't ask for a PIN which was strange/interesting. Fig 9: Verify ID3 tags are displayed and track skipping works. Brilliant. 5K0___ is the unit you want, to reconfirm. Replace screws (be careful when trying to insert the side screws for the climate controls, easy to drop them) and replace trim. Go for a drive if you've been using the accessories/DRLs for ~1 hour to make sure you don't flatten the battery. Even when I turned my light switch to off there were still some lights on (parkers or DRL).
  16. 8 players isn't as bad as SRT make out (guess they haven't played TDU1 much), but it would've been nicer to have 12 or 16. If we setup an XBL party and then play we should be fine. Of course me being in a different timezone to all of you means I probably won't get to cruise with y'all that often anyway :) They just have to make sure photomode works a lot quicker, and preferably can export to USB rather than wait forever to upload.
  17. Forza Horizon: An Open World Forza!! - Page 39 You tell us :) The start of that line is from .
  18. Took the words right out of my mouth :) It must've been while you were... um, with Milli. :whistle: Given that this is Week 2, the entry period is, um, 1 week :) I thought about making it shorter (i.e. 4 days to enter and 3 days to vote, but there's no way Diablo would keep up with the banner pics, if he actually does it). Can't see Forks pic either, will see if I can whitelist that URL.
  19. Feel free to update the first post on the Leaderboard thread any time Sponge. I'll get around to it shortly.
  20. Sorry, dice took ages to stop spinning. :) Your turn, Reaper.
  21. Aha, when I click Full Link my DynDNS Internet guide blocks it as a spam website I use it to block out ads and other rubbish from all PC's on our home network. Internet Guide Setup - Dyn I've asked Diablo so we'll see how long it takes.
  22. i can't say I've ever failed to see your pics
