dont worry Trig, you stroked out on every hole, it was quiet spectacular to watch, swing after swing, all that effort and concentration trying to get hole in ones, but just wasnt to be tonight :/
Shang Ra La just doesnt seem to be the course for you
It's going to be stunning
I was routing for you @Trig in my head you had 18 hole in ones
More likely I belted the ball off the course somewhere, and then just got lost trying to retrieve it and was never seen again...
No, no, no you belted it, we went looking only to find it in the hole....... every time. It was miraculous

not sure how many people have :
into black
and not started it and might want to journey togeather through it as a small group?
i know some of you have already started playing as a group.
web store issues still seem to have been the age check verification. now need to raise a 2nd ticket for being able to use sent referal links...

im happy to wait a bit to play if its something you want to try as a group. im in no rush just putting it out there a the moment.
@LostCorpse Hope you are ok after your trip into the GPU section of the forum? 
You made a rookie error, mentioning AMD's drivers problems in that section of the forum gets a very bad reaction!! They really came down hard on you.
The truth is that both Nvidia and AMD have small driver issues from time to time. The problem with AMD is that it takes them quite a while to iron problems with their drivers when they first launch a GPU. RDNA 1 had black screen issues that took them ages to fix. RDNA 2 drivers were great from the get go. RDNA 3 however, had idle power problems and massive performance issues in VR. It took them 8/9 months to fix these problems.
AMD are a lot better than they were and I wouldn't let drivers stop you from buying one of their cards. Even if they do have problems, you are pretty sure these days that they will fix them. It's not like years ago when AMD might never fix an issue with their graphic card drivers.

@melmac my thereapist said it would be good to branch out and make new friends, i think its going pretty well to be honest.
i learning a fair bit and my name is only mud instead of that pond scum water at the bottom of the river. im getting a few thumbs up and being quoted which are all positive signs!
i think they're warming up to me tbh, give it 2months and i'll have them eating out of my hands or your money back
tbh honest im more likely yo get an AMD card than NVidia at the moment cost vs spec if for no other reason. but first i have to have the free capital to actuall buy one :/
edit : plus linux better support, as im looking to make a move in that direction.

I will watch your progress with interest!!
As I always say to anyone who asks advice. Pick a budget and buy the best card you can within that budget, doesn't matter the brand.
Do it, do it, do it. You won't regret it. Well you might but at least you won't be tied to Micros****
. I've been happily gaming on Linux for coming up to 8 years now and support is getting better all the time
