    Poll: Your presence on the Escapist.

    I've been a member for over a year and a lurker for way longer. I'm not sure what prompted me to sign up, but I mostly just read what everyone else is saying and contribute something once in a blue moon. Maybe in 4 years I'll have managed 100 posts.

    No export for you, gaijin!

    Years ago I went to a convention in London and bought volume one of The Wallflower anime, which only contained five episodes and they haven't released any more. It would've been nice to have the rest. I also bought the first volume of Inuyasha but had to return it since the video and audio was...

    Nintendo's New Handheld is a Revamped, Redesigned 3DS

    Actually, you can play GB and GBC games on the SP. I still use it to play my old Mario games and Metroid. I'm not too bothered by the news since I'm content just working my way through the backlog of games I have at the moment and only got my 3DSXL last year. It'll probably be a few...

    Hey cyclists! I could need some advice.

    Just pretend you're out for a nice cycle then cram it on to a train and ride that to your destination. (Provided it has the usual larger space for bicycles etc and it goes somewhere near your home).

    Game of Thrones: Red Viper vs The Mountain *Spoilers tagged*

    Well that was more horrific than I expected. When he died in the book it didn't really bother me too much, apart from what it meant for Tyrion. Although as people have said, TV Oberyn was more likeable and had more time to develop as a character so this time around it hit a bit harder...

    Game of Thrones: Red Viper vs The Mountain *Spoilers tagged*

    Well, considering that Khal Drogo ripped a guy's oesophagus out along with his tongue, I really don't see why not. Although season 4 is supposed to be diverging from the books quite a bit so that particular event might not even happen. It'll be interesting to see where this goes

    Poll: Do you own/use a tablet?

    I didn't really see the point in having a tablet so wasn't really interested in getting one. However, it was a bit of a pain when my flat had no internet and I wanted to contact people back home. My birthday was coming up and there was nothing I really wanted, then my mum suggested a tablet...

    Anyone else looking forward to the Eurovision Song Content tonight? Ah, political voting...

    I never really bothered with Eurovision but everyone at my university seems to be obsessed with it so I thought I'd give it a go this year. I sat down with the intention of watching it, expecting to see something along the lines of this: Such disappointment. I wish everyone would just be as...

    Your first pet you had to put to sleep.

    I'm allergic to animals so I only ever had gerbils, since they mostly stayed in their cage and it meant their fur wouldn't go everywhere. When I was about 12 we adopted two greyhounds. Poppy was a nervous wreck when we got her, so she was constantly on guard. However, she calmed down over the...

    Aversion to Children

    I've never really been comfortable around babies. Usually if someone hands me one there's just a few awkward seconds of staring then I hand it back. They're smelly and sticky and I'm just waiting for some horrible accident to occur, like not holding them correctly or accidentally dropping them...

    Whats the stupidest thing youve ever got away with in a RPG?

    Due to the fumble rules we were using at the time I managed to kill myself with my own lightsaber. This was shortly followed by Luke Skywalker doing the same. The GM decided to retcon our deaths and change the fumble rules since that meant his plot wasn't going to work out... Which plot? The...

    Trying to introduce Girlfriend to pc gaming

    Castle Crashers is a pretty fun multiplayer. It recommends you use a controller but I'm pretty sure you can just use your mouse and keyboard if you really want. Another game I love is The Binding of Isaac. Not a multiplayer but it's something you can just play whenever you feel like it without...

    Flatmate Troubles

    So... Sorry for the delay! It's been almost a month now that's she's been here. Huzzah. Yeah, I don't think there's any way I could help her if her relationship is abusive, we barely speak and I don't really know what's going on with them. I just want the place to be tidy and for the...

    Flatmate Troubles

    This is my first time living away from home and it's in a foreign country. Everything was fine at first but one of my flatmates had to move back home so now there's only two of us. Two weeks ago my flatmate said "My girlfriend's coming round to stay tomorrow, is that OK?". When I asked how long...
