    GMT
    , give or take an hour.

    I said I was going out. Change of plan! Only an errand, no gig (I cba). Back in half an hour, then stream Narwhal.

    Curse done in 2hrs 54 mins.
  • edited December 2010
    So half an hour turned into an hour. Oops. Anyways, I'm now streaming in window/desktop mode to see if that delivers better performance.

    Finished 101 in 1h24m (I think, will confirm/alter once it is visible on LS).

    Edit: 1h24m, indeed it is.

    Finished Escape in 4:20. I got relatively lucky on the Monkey Kombat, with only 6 battles, luckily. I'll start Tales tomorrow at 19:00 GMT, and will do all five episodes in a row if all goes according to plan.

    Nevermind. Escape crashed before I had a chance to save. I'll re-do it sometime.

    I finished Launch of the Screaming Narwhal in 1:18. I will start Siege in 6 minutes.
  • edited December 2010
    I shall start The Siege of Spinner Cay now.
  • edited December 2010
    Just finished a Sam & Max episode. If anyone was watching/will watch, the reason why I dithered frequently is because I kept nodding off. Combination of lack of sleep and a bug going round that's also hit my work and family. Despite this, I'll do Tales 102 tonight. Just gimme 10 mins and I'll begin.

    Edit: ok within the next ten lol

    Starting TMI 102 now.
  • edited December 2010
    I just finished The Siege of Spinner Cay in 1:21, and will start Lair of the Leviathan in abobout 10 minutes.
  • edited December 2010
    Finished The Siege of Spinner Cay in 1 hour and 7 minutes.
  • edited December 2010
    I finished the first half of Lair of the Leviathan in 45 minutes. I will continue next year, I think. (Isn't the fact that you can use 'next year' in such an ordinary fashion great about the end of December?)
  • edited December 2010
    Completed TMI 102 in 1h22m. No episodes tomorrow because nobody will watch the streams live. Tune in on Sunday GMT for TMI 103. I'll also be doing an episode of Sam & Max Season 3 on New Year's day (mid-late evening GMT) and one, maybe two 2nd Jan. I plan to wrap both races up on Monday 3rd (bank holiday in UK), except for do-overs.

    Starting Lair now.
    EDIT: Finished Lair in 1 hour and 18 minutes. Apenpaap, how on earth did you finish it that quickly?

    His post says he only finished half in 45 mins and will finish the other half later.

    Whoops, my bad. Yeah, I would have thought it impossible tp finish Lair that quickly.
  • edited December 2010
    I miss-read it at first aswell, I couldnt believe it so I checked the video on his stream page then after realising it wasnt the full episode completed, I re-read his post.


    hey Guru, Manda & hamza when are you doing your races?
  • edited December 2010
    Actually, I've been so crazy-busy with the holidays this year, I'm not entirely certain whether or not I'm going to do one. If I do, I'll probably be starting sometime next week, and odds are I'll invoke my own willingness to drag the end of the race out until the end of January if I can't finish in time.

    And even worse, I still want to do the Sam & Max race, but I haven't taken any time to prepare for it. Maybe I'll just do it anyway and see how well I can do with no route planning, no practice runs, and no puzzle reminders. I haven't even played any of The Devil's Playhouse more than once, and I haven't played the first two seasons since before The Penal Zone came out.

    It's not long in content though, there's just a bunch of walking around and the incredibly tedious Monkey Kombat.

    Are you still doing the race Blooglspash?

    Starting Trial now.
  • edited December 2010
    Ok, I've come across a weird issue with livestream. It keeps cutting out asking me to lower my bandwidth. Any way I can fix this? I'm about 37 minutes in and am just about to give Grindstump the Tuna Calada recipe.
