Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Yeah, unfortunately, the millions that get won seem to go to those who already have it, Well that's what it appears to be here.

It's common everywhere. Though when it does go to people who 'cant' handle' it things go terribly wrong. I don't think I would have many issues with large sums.

For now reason at all, my mood is getting better. Well, there are some reasons, mostly people being nice to me just because they are nice. That should increase one's mood, shouldn't it?

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

It's about market of course. As they see more people using their services they bring out better apps. Also it may just be Nokia or MS helping them out.

It doesn't seem obviously connected, market share and all these apps right now, but it might be if development time is taken into consideration. But still, I think the new generation of WP devices might maybe help. Or it could just be a coincidence plus the apps that were announced at the Nokia thingy which increases the effect.

Now Microsoft, just bring some much needed features, and I'll buy another phone with your OS in 2014!

WP8.1 is what we're all waiting for. Hopefully it has some of wow factor most of us want. As for functionality, for me I have a very short list which I think will be sorted.

From a personal perspective I don't really care about a notification centre though people are constantly on about it. Fix the toast system and make live tiles better and notification centre isn't needed in my eyes.

The only reason why I want improved notifications is the lock screen. The limit to 5 notifications is just a bad joke. When I have more apps, like Skype, Viber, Facebook and so on which give notifications in addition to messages, phone, email, Whatsapp, it's just a terrible situation.

If I want to know if I missed a message I have to put in my passcode and go to the homescreen, and then I'm forced to either have these apps all on top or I have to scroll down to see if something happened.

The one with the lightsaber is rather amusing. Not sure how that fits the character but I guess everyone has their interpretation. :)

Does the big belt buckle have significance. :p

Better lock screen would be good. I'm happy with the new glance features coming. It's what I and my wife want we both miss it from our N8s.

He actually had two lightsabers - couldn't get hold of swords apparently. No significance to the big belt buckle - made it from scratch and needed something the same size as the chest piece so it didn't look odd.

Didn't think swords were hard to come by, must be all the Deadpool look-a-likes buying them. :p I do like how all the Deadpools are different.

Though I'm not a fan of comics or anything related to a Comic Con they do look like fun.

Well the rules on weapons at comic con are a bit odd - some people just find it safer to get obvious toys. Saturday was a good laugh with the other Deadpools spent most of the day outside causing chaos and posing for lots of photos. Deadpool is expected to be a bit of a d*ck so when you've got between 5 and 8 all acting the same way it gets quite amusing. Was really busy on the Saturday though - far too many people - at one point you couldn't get either into or out of the excel for people queuing which isn't great from a safety perspective.

The problem when things become too popular, funny how things go from niche to mainstream. I've heard there are people who go to different Comic Cons around the world.

What's important is that you enjoyed it. :)

I enjoyed my dessert today. And I will enjoy the cake this afternoon even more. Birthdays of lab members are great.
