I was thinking of this for the fun of it from "Shakin' Stevens - Merry Christmas Everyone" the other day, and now that the snow is here:

Snow is falling
All around me
People postin'
"Having fun" ;)
It's the season
"Out of understanding" :mrgreen:
Merry Christmas everyone

+ I am so far enjoying viewing RPC with snow falling. :D
- Yikes to the monitor though, scratches on screens sometimes bug me too.

Especially when you pay €200 for one that you expect to have a perfect screen and it arrives like that. :P

TOCA race driver is an amazing game. I remember I used to play that all the time on PS2 when I was younger. I think it was TOCA 2 I was playing, but I assume 3 will be good too.

+ I got socks! Every Christmas is complete once you get socks. :noel:

- The only thing I found kind of irritating about ToCA RD3 is how when you accidentally go off the road you spin around and it's very hard to recover from it.
+ I got socks too! More specifically, Simpsons socks with Duff Beer and Homer Simpson on them. They're awesome! :D

+ Getting a little tipsy, but it's fun and it's Christmas. :D :noel:
+ I'm fairly sure that I'll be able to get a refund/replacement monitor, but we shall see in 2 days.

– I’ve had such a bad day today.
– I hate it so much when people younger than me order me around (i.e. tell me what to do and what not to do).

+ Reading up ways to reduce lag on Dolphin.
+ Mario Kart Wii runs decently faster and performance looks fairly good to me.

Usually I'd use DX12 as the renderer for Dolpin, but it depends on what GPU you have in your system. If you don't know what it is then it's likely Intel HD graphics.

I'll check out the PSX guide again later if I'm not busy, it's been a while since I've worked on it.

+ Rayman 2 is seriously such an amazing game. :D

+/- Been at the doctor's a long time, which ended with me getting my blood drawn from my hand, ouch! Still I think it was time I had gotten a checkup since it's been a year now. :P
+ Relaxed at home the rest of the day. :mryellow:

So last night when I wanted to contribute to the wiki, I deleted my save file for Rayman Legends on Xbox One. I deleted the local one from the console, but what I didn't know was

- Microsoft have such a stupid setup, that it actually deleted my cloud save too.

+ I was pissed off over it, but then I realised that Rayman Legends is still a really good game, so I've been playing it again since last night.

+ It remembers my online stats for the challenges.

- Oh man, that sucks!
+ Glad it remembered the online stats for you though. :)
+ I finally got all the signature takedowns in Burnout 3 which got me the Oval Racer Special! It even has B3 written on it! :D (it's Burnout 3's mascot car, like the Custom Coupe from Burnout 2) Here's a picture of it from the Burnout wiki:

+ So later this afternoon I will be going up to College Station for this Hayride with my sister and a few relatives possibly. Hopefully it will be fun!
+ I've started taking my meds again. I know it's for the best, both for me and for anyone else around me.
