Gaming

So I complete my first flying race. 
Once again everyone says I was great even though I wasn't but despite this I did somehow () get to third on the leaderboard surprising both snarky Imelda and myself.

I then return to Spintwitches in Hogsmeade to talk to the guy who sold me the broom. He wants me to tell him how the broom handles in flight so that he can improve his upgrades.
Well isn't that wonderful, Albie, because I've got some fantastic advice for you. Has it ever crossed your mind to "upgrade" it to have orthodox controls instead of Right Stick to change the height? Because that is so, so, stupid!

Sadly, that wasn't one of the dialogue options.

Everything else continues to be good fun. I am now growing my chomping cabbages in my gothic Room Of Requirement which now has the moody lighting thanks to slave elf Deek. There's no option to give him a sock yet.
But I don't want to free him anyway cos I need him around to change the lighting if I get bored with the current look.

How many House Elves does it take to change a light bulb?
One, apparently.

Banned for supporting slavery 

I haven't tried out Havencraft nearly as much as I should have but alpha 5 will be dropped in a couple of weeks. Maybe by then my "new" laptop will be back to working order. I've started the installation process today, anyway.

I REALLY wish they'd have just given me a new one

Anyway, I came here to say Havencraft now has a trailer video on Youtube:


And it can be wishlisted on Steam. I've no idea what the price will be, I haven't opened Steam yet. Just doing my part in promoting this game

Oh and Founder's Fortune is currently 4,74 Euros on Steam, in case anyone wants a game I have actually finished a few mods for. (3 done, about 7 to go, the last one has been in progress for.... 4 years now? )

Are they trying to "repair" it again??
I thought they were giving you a new one this time after asking for those documents.

Me too but no they replaced the motherboard I think.
Consequently I haven't really dared try it out yet.

Well I suppose the motherboard is the most significant thing to replace so hopefully it'll be the same as having a new one.
Good luck with it.

I guess, considering they replaced the graphics card previously. There isn't much else to replace 

they did replace the cooling paste first time around...

Trigger's Broom.

Or Ship Of Theseus, if you prefer.
