    it was always gold/white!! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly

    It was always blue and black. Some primitive minds just havent evolved to process blue and black properly, and see those colours as yellow and gold.

    actually I read that the younger people were more likely to perceive it as white and gold and older people black and blue. At the time, gold and white clothing was everywhere and that probably impacted the perception of those viewing the dress!

    I can confirm this is true. For the first 24 hours of the phenomenon, I could only see it as white/gold. After that I could only see it as blue/black. That extra day in age made all the difference and pushed me over the threshold. Now, when I look at it I still struggle to believe how I ever saw it as white/gold.

    Uhm, you lasted a day as the OP. Just so you knows :D

    There was a technical issue and it had to be changed to a Mod if I remember correctly.

    Bella Italia. We booked it through eurocamps but there's tonnes of ways to book, it's a massive site (biggest on Lake Garda I think)

    Really excited as bar a week in Butlins with the eldest lad, we haven't been able to afford a trip of this scale over the past few years due to me being out of work :(

    But enough of that, it's holiday time! Just survive the drive to airport and 6.15am flight tomorrow morning...

    Any game?
    Wonder if you could get a site wide choose your own adventure game going where individual posts could appear anywhere on the site and had to appear relevant to the thread they were in, but would offer 2 or 3 choices that could bring you to anywhere else in the site, including earlier in the same thread, with sequential linked posts creating an overarching narrative...?
    Put the kettle on, Mrs Banjo!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    wow, the earlier in the same thread could take weeks of planning. Interesting.

    Necro sends his best and says he misses us all terribly. He is trying to best to console himself with lovely beers, sitting out and relaxing in the sunshine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,880 ✭✭✭MrsFlushdraw

    I archived the game and re-ordered the archive accordingly you should still have access as a registered user tho to change your avi back.

    I gave the next 3 mods access but it's not clear who's actually next. Whoever is, pm me.

    I had a look at the overwatch archive and can't see what is causing them not to be visible, but I can they are missing when logging in as a test user


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    if u admin me, i'll fix the permission for overwatch.

    I can change my avatar, but not my name! I was MrsFD lol, don't wanna be Robert Ford for ever :)

    Did you sort back the permissions etc to standard for everyone else? I had to do for all the characters for the overwatch game.

    I did hell and back yesterday. It lived up to its name. I cannot walk today.

    But it was great craic. And if I could get through it anyone could. I am so out of shape it’s not even funny. No joke. I lack basic fitness and I survived. Sure I only found out on Friday night I was doing it!

    Sore today.

    Oh wow well done!!! Congrats on finishing it. I'd love to take up running but my right knee and hip act like they're 90yrs old on a normal day so high impact exercise is out for me. :rolleyes:

    We walked the majority of it tbh.

    But it’s given me hope and a goal. I’m going to enter an Olympic distance triathlon next summer. Mind over matter and I have a year to train.
