Well, at least they caught it and some random Indian dude didn't empty your account. I hope you can get it all sorted out though.

Oh, sorry, when I said game dev, I meant video games. I just happen to also be a massive board game nerd, so I talk about that quite a bit as well.

Oh it's a video game? Well I wouldn't be much help with programming but I think I could still throw some ideas out there. Also, this incident is making me realise just how useless my bank actually is. This is the second time I've been hacked, and they completely close down over the weekend (including online and phone services) which is leaving me completely stranded here. After I sort this out I think it's time to switch.

Yeah that sounds like it might be a good idea.

How's it going everyone? Due to this banking disaster it'll be yet another week before I can buy furniture, but I'm ok with it. Last night I went to my friends and we played a demo game of age of sigmar to some who hadn't played it. We might have them on board. I won it too, which was nice. It looked like I was going to lose after the first turn, and there was definitely no way I could achieve the objective so instead I just consentrated on tabling him, which I managed to do. It all came down to the wire though. If I literally didn't kill his last remain model he would have won on points, 20-6. The korgorath (the big mutated ogre thing) got a boost in the latest update and it really shows. It went on a one model wrecking spree, (accounting for like 90% of my kills). And it heals itself as it kills so, definitely worth taking in small games.

Korgorath sounds a bit OP to be honest, but I'm sure there is at least some measure of balance like low hp or being easy to hit or something.
Well, I'm probably (hopefully) going to be switching up jobs soon.
I had a not so nice incident at my current work, which was partially my laziness and partially not really knowing what the boss precisely wanted (including him saying that he told me to do things even though he did not). I'm probably going to give notice and then ask the temp agency to find me a new position, though the agency and my parents would really rather I didn't, though my dad did say that I should not tolerate someone saying "what do I pay you for?"

To be fair, it was a small game fought over a small table. It managed to get into combat by turn two, and my opponent fell for the bait in the form of the lower cannon fodder troops. He should have shot it right from the beginning instead of targeting them. He had the firepower to deal with it.
And yeah, when a boss gets personal like that and blames you for their own mistakes, then it's time to leave.

Blarg I had to take my car into the shop again this week. At least this time it was a little cheaper. Having issues with the cruise control, of all things.

Eurgh, I feel ya. Cars are money pits but once you have one you can't be without. Incidentally, mine needs new sidebeam bulbs and the radio rebooting.

I'll probably need to service the engine soon too. Ugh.

How many miles has your car got JT? Also I've started getting my furniture in. Unfortunately the biggest stuff (bed, wardrobe) is too big for my dads van. So it'll be home delivery then, and they take up to five working days. Doh.

A lot. I don't remember exactly how much off the top of my head. Over 100K, possibly 200. I'd have to check.
In other news, if you ever do pick up a Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is definitely worth it. Definitely the definitive version of the game, if not of the whole series. The 200cc race mode is insane.

Now I really want a Switch!
Also I can't believe season seven of pony is already ten episodes in. At least I'll be watching it all very soon.

In other news, I saw Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 today, and it was amazing. The opening battle alone is worth the price of admission.

Yeah it was amazing! Definitely a good follow up to the first.
