Halomods has actually been up for more than a day!

I think the server might finally be fixed.

I have read that book, if you ordered for the reason why I think you did then I think you will enjoy it.

I'm so close to finishing that book, I've been reading it for waaay too long... gotta be at least 6 months now. I need to be less busy.

I'm happy 'cos I want this TV.

I finished reading another book by the author of Fight Club. Rant: An Oral Biography Of Buster Casey. At first I was put off by the format of the book, but after a few chapters I started to love it. Another awesome book by an amazing writer.

Ask Santa for it.

Also, my repair box is on the way. Dealing with the tech support is always tedious.
Repairs. Xbox 360. Yes, I know what the error is. Yes, it still does it. Yes, the power supply light is green. Yes, I can read the Xbox.com support. Yes, I would like a repair. Yes, I know the console is under three year warranty. Yes, I know it will take a few weeks. Yes, I know not to send the hard drive and whatnot.
The content of the phone call could be expressed like this:
"Rate your knowledge of the subject between 1 and 10"
"10"
"What is your console's serial number"
"23978523896523"
"Is this your current address?"
"Yes."
"Here is your service number, please include it when you ship out the console."

But at least I don't have to listen to Jose anymore and now I can get my console repaired.

I sent mine in because my disk drive malfunctioned. Be prepared for a looooooooooooong wait. Mine took 5 weeks.

It varies. A friend of mine's took just two weeks or so.
In addition, I got 100% in GTA IV the day before, so I would have just spent the time doing meaningless tasks until NG2 came out.

Were you supposed to include the service number? Whoops.

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Mon May 19, 2008 6:00 pm

That's what he told me, but I'm sure they can identify by serial number as well. Probably just makes it easier than them looking it up in their system.

I suppose a 10million console userbase makes things a lot less efficient (the repairing process) compared to a 300-400k userbase

I'm so happy today. BFG Tech GeForce 9800 GTX(G92) 512MB. Just arrived at my house. I just played Crysis on Very High, and Unreal Tournament 3 Maxed out. I am so happy.

I'm watching Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. This movie NEVER gets old!! And, I also just saw the most EPIC commercial EVER! Here's how it went:

"Looking for a romantic thriller?"
*shows some clips of movies*
"Hahaha, get the fuck outta here! Coming soon to theater, "The Strangers".
Rated: GUY"

Yes. Win. Sauce. Ultimate. Fighter. Champion. Moves. Spider-man.

Hahaha
I love the projection room scene. lol. Also, "TAKE THIS YOU WINGED SPAWN OF SATAAAAANNN!!!". I'm lol'ing so hard.
