Nippy it is, then.
You know you'd hate being left out, and we couldn't have a pub crawl without our Georgeous now, could we?

B and D for me.
Still there is one question I asked about BG2 that was never answered...Who is Arthur and where is he?

No, I suppose you would need
someone to put you in a taxi home after you pass out...

I prefer to search but newbies attract newbies and they might be rehashing a discussion had several times on the forum, isn't that ok because you or I don't have to visit the new/old

thread.
Now, I guess this all dependent on whether the rehashed topic is an area of discussion or someone who wants a definitive spoilerish/techish answer to a specific question. If the latter, then by all means search. However, in searching for something as a matter of discussion might produce a couple of threads to intimidating to tackle. Example: Someone new joins the forums and wants to discover how lousy Anomen is in the sack. A search on this topic will yield one of the most heralded threads in the history of the SoA forum, however, this newbie might not want to tackle the 20 something pages to get his opinion in. I, of course, am of the ilk who will read the full thread before I post no matter the pages (alas, I digress).
Furthermore, the Anomen example is a lousy example because Aqua-Chan just revitalized the thread and may have in fact read the whole thing before posting. That said, I think I'll draught whomever (Ode, others???) and being a pub crawl. I feel intoxicated after all this nonsense anyway.

Did you say pub crawl?
It's a shame most of the pubs in SYM were closed, or we could go visit them all...

See, you understand perfectly! So glad you volunteered.
Besides, who else knows where the pubs close to their house are? Drunken Mario Kart and SF2 marathons, how could we pass that one up?
*makes note: next time, try making veiled insult slightly less veiled. Must lower oneself to level of audience*
I never said a taxi back to
my home...

I'd offer to have the drunken SNES marathons at my home but I live here in Australia. Looks like your place it is.
EDIT-And I get to go as Ryu.

Oh, and when will you be visiting here?
So now it's a fancy dress pub crawl?

My brother will be though...
Why not? Well, because I know what they look like

To answer Sleep's question:
I always begin with going to the producers site and check known bugs, known problems etc. Since most games are released quite late in Sweden, it's a big chance that the issues are already solved by the time I get my hands on the game.
If I can't find a solution there, I go to different game forums and make a search. This is not only because I'm so nice, it's also because questions tend to be much better answered when it's not the 23748th time it's asked.

@CE yes, you tend to just get given links to the old discussion anyway...

To be honest, I can't be bothered coming up with a snappy comeback. Try me again tomorrow.

Why would tomorrow be different from any other day?
