I'll download it but I haven't been able to get any further than accepting the NDA and online preamble before it just sits there and goes no further.
Maybe I'll be luckier with this build.

It seems like actually achieving anything on a day to day basis isn't a requirement.
In fairness, the kind of gossip so far has been less of "who's being sacked next" variety and more of the "have you seen the new maketing executive?" All very locker room and juvenile... incidentally, yes, I have seen the new marketing exec and, yes, she is quite attractive, but could someone explain to me why we're paying her £5,000 over the market rate for her position? Cue the sound of crickets coming from the direction of the sales and marketing director (our soon-to-be COO).
Funny, our gossip tends to be, "So, who's quitting for a better paying job next?" At the start up I was at it was more like, "So, who's going where next and can I go with them?"
As for the marketing executive, well, I'm sure she's very skilled at.......... well, something.

and nice looking jaffa's
Good to be back. I have to say that the trip back from New England was not good for the Jaffa box. I had to pack it in my backpack so it got a little crushed. I don't expect that it will have affected the jaffas though.
I know that I am old enough that I should be travelling in a more dignified manner than using a backpack. My wife uses her rolling baggage. But for me after travelling quite literally around the world (India twice, China, Japan, all over the US, Europe many times) with that backpack I just don't want to travel with anything else. Of course it means that sometimes things get a little squished or crushed. It's a tradeoff I happily make to have two hands free while moving around.

At one point in the last build I wasn't even able to get far enough to recreate my character (recall they wiped characters at one point.) I went to the Dust website to report the problem but since I didn't have a character I could not go on the website to report that I couldn't create a character.
That was brilliant thinking by them.
After many attempts and a lot of waiting around I was finally able to recreate my character but I could never get any further. I just stopped trying after a while because nobody I knew (i.e. you guys) were playing Dust anyway.
