Now that's what I call optimism. 
'Tis about 74 now so hopefully it'll be done before 10pm.
I've left it alone in the other room now while I watch TV. Must remember to keep checking it to make sure it doesn't go into sleep mode.
I did have a little scare at 65% when my download speed plummeted to zero.
But a quick "pause then resume" sorted that out. *phew*

Any an all misspellings are henceforth blamed on the cats.
It was probably just your zombiephant gnawing the wires. 
And I've unpacked my tablet!
- but not my coloured pencils

Draw.
DRAW!
And then paint.
My install was indeed done before 10. Half nine to be exact, so that last 25% was quicker than the rest.
And then I had to update the Rockstar launcher.
And then I had to install the Social Club.
And then I had to login and remember that password again.
And then I had to prove I wasn't a robot by picking out those damn fire hydrants AGAIN!!
And then... I got to play. Took a few moments to find the right sweet spot for the graphics settings and I had to knock the resolution down a bit but it seems to be running at an acceptable frame rate now. Well, acceptable for me.
So... cars were stolen, people were shot and cops were chasing.

And this was just the installation process, imagine what the game is like

I won the tutorial in Civilization! There are so many aspects of this game I had totally forgotten It seems pretty much the same as far as I can tell, though, except for nicer graphics and a honeycomb map pattern. (I think it had squares originally? Can't really recall, though)

There are so many aspects that I didn't know in the first place. I'll have to find them out so that i can forget them

I tried playing a game but I was incessantly attacked by Barbarians (I suspect they were actually Russians posing as barbarians while Peter the Great pretended to be friendly) and I couldn't do anything but try to produce enough troops to fight them off. When defeat was inevitable I gave up.
