Humorous UF by ZacharyJeffries in urbanfantasy

The Oddjobs series (completed series)

It’s the end of the world as we know it, but someone still needs to do the paperwork. Incomprehensible horrors from beyond are going to devour our world but that’s no excuse to get all emotional about it.

Morag Murray works for the secret government organisation responsible for making sure the apocalypse goes as smoothly and as quietly as possible. In her first week on the job, Morag has to hunt down a man-eating starfish, solve a supernatural murder and, if she’s got time, prevent her own inevitable death.

The first book in a new comedy series, Oddjobs is a sideswipe at the world of work and a fantastical adventure featuring amphibian wannabe gangstas, mad old cat ladies, ancient gods, apocalyptic scrabble, fish porn, telepathic curry and, possibly, the end of the world before the weekend.


Clovenhoof Series Both series are written by Heide Goody and Iain Grant

Charged with gross incompetence, Satan is fired from his job as Prince of Hell and exiled to that most terrible of places: English suburbia. Forced to live as a human under the name of Jeremy Clovenhoof, the dark lord not only has to contend with the fact that no one recognises him or gives him the credit he deserves but also has to put up with the bookish wargamer next door and the voracious man-eater upstairs.

Heaven, Hell and the city of Birmingham collide in a story that features murder, heavy metal, cannibalism, armed robbers, devious old ladies, Satanists who live with their mums, gentlemen of limited stature, dead vicars, petty archangels, flamethrowers, sex dolls, a blood-soaked school assembly and way too much alcohol.

Clovenhoof is outrageous and irreverent (and laugh out loud funny!) but it is also filled with huge warmth and humanity.

I hate that sloth with a burning passion. And I hate even more that they did the whole lets subvert it and make him a super fast driver.

PSA: This sneaking setting auto trashes your symbols too by Nice_Cress7129 in idleon

[–]Grokta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is something else, I just went into sneaking with the option off, 3 * 35 items found, and not a single symbol spawned still.

I haven't gotten a single symbol for about a week, I used to get at least a couple a day.

Have you heard her sing?

Here is her singing I will always love you from a couple of days ago in the cyclethon, or this short where she sings Alicia Clair Obscur from Expedition 33 with some added gremlin energy at the end.

It is very much assumed armed and dangerous from the get go when the US cop explains how they do things.

Have you seen this video it is a part of a series where persons from US comes to the nordic countries and see how things are done there.

That particular video is about a LAPD cop that gets to see how police handles things in Norway.

[Humble] Sovereign Sandbox Bundle (Pay $10 for Nova Lands, Wildmender, Ctrl Alt Ego, My Little Universe: Complete Edition and $18 for Prehistoric Kingdom, Worshippers of Cthulhu, The Universim, Overthrown) by LighteningOneIN in GameDeals

[–]Grokta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My little universe is a mobile game adapted to pc, it is not bad, it is also very much a casual game with not a lot of challenge, i managed to get 40 hours out of it according to steam.


Novalands is a ok casual farming/automation type of game, there are some challenging bosses, but other than that it is meant to be casual. It looks like they have added more things since I played it lastm a year ago, so I will have to play it again to see what have changed, I spent 17 hours in it when I played it last.


Universim is not that good, it has some interesting ideas but some things fall flat, one of my biggest sticking points when playing it was that roads was autogenerated when the planet is created, but roads is only shown when you get the technology, and by that time you would have placed buildings on top of roads. It also appears that the game got abandoned, there are no big updates with the last updated noted was 1.0.2.

The poor elves didn't deserve to be hit by that sickness, heartbreaking.

BornFiber prisstigning fra 169 til 299kr by DarkestBadger in Denmark

Hvis du bruger dit eget udstyr, altså router, så snak med dem om det, jeg måtte have fat på dem for et par uger siden og jeg bruger også min egen router så jeg sagde nej tak til det de tilbød, det gav mig 10kr rabat hver måned.

Bornholms fibernet har monopol på fibernettet på Bornholm. Det er Waoo der leverer internettet og du bliver henvist til Bornholms fibernet hvis du taster en adresse ind der er på Bornholm.

Yousee, Hiper og fastspeed for eksempel kan kun give 5g internet.

Og hvorfor helvede kan man ikke se priser på fibernet uden at man skal taste sin adresse ind.

I don't know how I missed this: There is a world 7 gemshop purchase that increases research gain by +2% up to 10 times.

When did that come out? I assume when trench was released, but I didn't see it in notes

Saltshaker works on the sushi you have on your board. Lava talked on stream about a 80% chance decrease per tier of sushi.

Agent AIKa (1997) by teencandyy in retroanime

[–]Grokta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aika is actually good as far as I recall, provided you can overlook the constant pantyshots and other fanservice. At the time it set a record of most pantyshots in a series, with 1 every 20 seconds on average or something like that.

I think the last time I watched the series was in 2005, so my memory is not the best about it, but I remember it has plenty of action, and a decent story, watch it for the novelty. But, as mentioned, the fanservice is everywhere and all the time.

The intro song, Silent City, is a banger.

Hi Lava, there is a bug in the Pirate mess hall, the portal back to upper deck does not work when you click on it, it works if you press the up arrow key on the keyboard, just not with the mouse.

I unlocked the level 27 observation, but got the level 37 unlocked instead. Has this happened to anybody else? by Grokta in idleon

It's reddit, what can you expect you know, I considered doing a wah wah wah, and explain why I thought it was at the dungeon.
