I'm about to order a EVGA 970 and a Fractal Design Define R5 case off of Newegg today or tomorrow. 3 day shipping is $26, but I can get a 3 month Newegg Premier membership for $20 and that'll give me free 3 day shipping. Anyone else use Newegg Premier? Should I go with that?

26 bucks for 3 days? where do you live?

Maine. It may be because of the size of the case or something.

Also, how safely does Newegg ship GPUs? I'm assuming they pack it well with lots of foam and stuff? I've only ever ordered a case and a PSU from them, so I don't have much experience.
 
"Ta" can burn in hell with "meh".

Careful -- with Newegg's questionable shipping methods, there's a good chance that only 3.5gb of the VRAM will end up usable.

Please don't tell me that this is yet another passive-agressive slight against my posting habits.

There's a passive-aggressive slight against your posting habits? o_O

No, this is just me not liking the increased use of "Ta." I've been seeing everywhere in place of Thanks/Thank you/ty lately. Internet search says it's normal for you Aussies, but in all the posts I've seen by you, it's only recently that I've noticed increased usage (as well as others too).

the fuck is Ta

that's spanish

Thi sis what I got from Urban Dictionary and it seems plausible:
A slang word for Thanks.

The word is a result of the heavy Danish influence on the English language. Most people do not realize that the English language roots are really Danish or Jutland. Equiped with this knowledge this word is easy to decipher.

The Danish word for Thanks is tak. In Scotland and upper England it was common to drop the k at the end because of the way words were pronounced during the time of old English and Middle English. Hence the slang word "Ta" which should actually be pronounced "TA-k" but over time became "Ta" is really Tak meaning "Thanks"

Well, your "ITT: JaseC pretends to be Google 'cause he's an all around good guy" comment yesterday seemed to be positively dripping with facetiousness.

oh it's like thanks in a posh way

terrible


TA in uru/argie spanish means "stop", or "done"

You live in a country where weed is legal. Nothing about your culture makes sense because everyone is high.

RIP Chariot.
Bullshit! How do these people keep making this shit? What kind of idiots are buying crap out of a box. It's not even a good box. It's the kind of box UPS throws at a very aggressive dog in the garden. A dog with various sicknesses.
I was hoping from the first couple of screenshots it'd be one of those VNs with some strategic gameplay too like Sengoku Rance. I'm not too big on VNs that are just click-throughs.
These turds called games are less than that. Shit story, shit characters, even the shit is shit. You can't read it, you can't look at it, you can't even fap to it. All you can do is starring into the deepest part of the abyss, if you squint your eyes you can see Ozium sitting there eating a chicken.
 
I'm a horrible person. I've got Witcher 3 just *sitting* there, and i've been playing Regency Solitaire and Audiosurf 2 instead.

(Regency Solitaire is hella fun by the way; it's basically Solitaire Golf with a silly Jane Austin sheen laid over the top)

So you can fap to it?

Hmm. Guess it's time to get the ol' wishlist organized.
Either it's fecking hard or I really suck.

I'm not saying you don't suck but keep at it, took me a good while to even survive the second floor. When you realize that you can't play too aggressively, complete all missions (=lots of bonus time) and get a few upgrades its not so bad anymore. At least not until the last two levels.

Nah, wasn't directed at you in a negative way other than my disbelief that you can somehow not be bothered by repeatedly answering the same questions over and over and over and over and over because people don't know how to read before posting, choose to ask unhelpful/vague questions, or make use of the search function (or in lieu of the search function: Google).

I, too, have TW3 just *sitting* here.
And I've pretty much decided I will not play it until these conditions are met:
(1) I upgrade my graphics card
(2) I get the "season pass" for a reasonable price
(3) All "season pass" content has been released

If you people want to see some real passive aggressive behavior, I can show you it.

Yeah, I'm sure you'd all love that.

Oh. It felt as though you were a stone's throw from going all (for lack of a better term) Mr. Luchador on me, so, uh, I deleted you from my friends list. I apologise for the misunderstanding, but I can't actually re-add you until my market restriction is lifted (~20 hours from now) as my friends list is full.

How would this be different than normal? ;)

No worries. Add me back if you like when you get room.
Sorry about the mix-up -- that would explain why you went all bishoptl on me in the followup post though. :lol
It probably came from my loathing of how the sales threads devolve into a flood of those "is it worth it?" questions all the time.
If I don't feel like being a wildcard and having some fun by giving random people crazy opinions on their "worth it" questions, I generally avoid the sales threads now that we have been moved to community. :D

I shall continue to play my way through. Tough game though.
