Last year I converted all of my sale cards into gems right before the end of the sale. Missed the deadline this time, and my cards all went *poof*!

It sounds like your "patches" were actually completely redownloading the game. Unless those were the expansions, I didn't buy the expansions. I just finished downloading TW3 on Steam, it was 31.7GB download but once it was done there was nothing else to download.
Does Australia have really slow internet or something?
Yes. Yes it does. Maximum myself or all my mates get is 3mb/s, and thats on a good day, at 3am. My average is 500kb/s.
Although, saying this, I do have high hopes for the NBN plan, if Turnbull lets it run.

TheEyeOfNight I swear, this thread is 70% smack talk, 20% RP organization, and 10% butt jokes.
Tactical_Spam Vanden clearly loves making sweet sweet love to his school. He is the most passionate, learning oriented individual you will ever meet.
War Kitten You should ask nicely before hitting people with your stick Vanden. We're a polite society after all.
2BlackJack1 Snow is great though. Snowmen, snowball fights, frostbite, snow forts, what's not to love?
Kharne the Befriender It's just the smug look of eternal irony while you wait for Creed to pull out his Baneblade so you can steal it.
War Kitten I love how this has gone from a deathly serious war to a discussion about how Vanden is secretly a whale wearing panties. Welcome to the Crusade of Fury.
Irishpeacockz Well this crusade will be endless then as I imagine Vandan has a large collection of inflatables lying around

DSL. It's better than dialup, but not by much.

Yeah, even in the US, there are many communities that are stuck on old, copper-based DSL, simply because of how antiquated our phone system is and how little money has been invested bringing broadband out of the cities.
Shoot, in my "neighborhood", you can't even get cable television! DSL is the only "high speed" internet available, and 640k is the highest speed you can get..

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |
