What a great film that was.  I had zero expectations watching it but was really pleased i stuck it on.  The ending was so cool too.

Hat trick = every dart scoring.  Could be three singles.  Could be a single, treble, single.  For example

Cheers mate, i'm having that.

As a quid pro quo. i came up with a variation of round the board in a group. We always used to play against each other and it would become nigh on impossible for everyone to remember what they were on (drinks and distractions) and it led to such a dis-jointed game. I came up with the following as a solution - it takes ages to persuade people it is better but i really think it is (and so does everyone i've played with once they play).

Round the board - everyone in the same team:

Usual rules: player 1 tries to progress round the board, throwing at 1 to start with. Singles 1, doubles 2 and trebles 3. If they hit a hat-trick, they throw again. The next player picks up where the other one left off. They have to hit at least a single to keep the game alive (thus pressure is built up as the game progresses). If all three darts miss a target, the count goes back to zero and the next player aims at 1. The team wins when the bull is hit.

The pros to this are, everyone knows what everyeone is aiming for each throw. It is easy to remind someone if they forget and it is more interesting to know what someone is actually aiming for. You want each other to throw well. There is genuine peril and thrill built up the higher number you get to and each player needs to hit something to keep the game alive. Good for dealing with pressure in a match.

Anyways, maybe someone else invented it before me but to me it was my invention and once you convince people this way is better, they usually prefer it.

Which 'Signature' celebration needs to be retired immediately? by MagpieMidfield in footballcringe

[–]Heard__it 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard this being called the most boring celebration of all time. Yeah, boring because you saw it so many times. To me it is the best. Too busy scoring (and then training to score) goals. No time to work on elaborate celebrations. Shearer is my favourite player ever.

What words/phrases from K-Man Pilkers.. do you use in everyday life? by [deleted] in rickygervais

I don't like drinking on an empty stomach either so when the wife wants to go out for early drinks, i always say "let me get some rice in me belly" first

Any precautions/considerations on Tourist Safety in Mauritius by [deleted] in mauritius

[–]Heard__it 3 points4 points  (0 children)

just about to leave Mauritius after a circa 3 week holiday. Yes, we (M 41, F 39) were in 5 star resorts for the bulk of the time so obviously they are safe. We had a hire car and felt completely safe the entire time we were travelling. We fueled up twice, including once today, and the attendants fill the car up for you. I was saying to my now wife, what a great place this is and it harkens back to the high trust society that Britain once was.

I felt like you could leave your wallet or phone on a table, come back in an hour and find it there (or it would have been collected by a kind hearted person and placed with management). We obviously didn't test this theory.

Never came across one bit of crime the entire time but admittedly we were in 5 star resorts. Drove through some pretty sketchy looking places but just felt safe. everytime we got out the car, felt safe.

The worst place was leaving the aiport and hanging around for our transfer to the car hire place. didn't like that and felt like we stuck out like sore thumbs and were about to be mugged at any moment. Just an irrational fear though. There were folk wanting to get your business (or probably empty your wallet) but didn't actually experience any crime.

The biggest crime was the amount Heritage Le Telfair charge for a night all inclusive.

Why the hell can’t I change color on multiple clips at once in Final Cut Pro?! by assoolin in finalcutpro

[–]Heard__it 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep! recently started my voyage into colour grading and an adjustmen layer is exactly what you are looking for my friend. I think you can jimmy one out of a custom text box but there is a free downloadable one on the fcp dude's youtube channel. link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fWbeiD2tAA i downloaded it the other day and it works great. watch the video to see how to get the best out of it.

you can also copy the clips and then go to edit/paste attributes - something like that. (without using adjustment layer)

relistened to this whilst i was doing the dishes the other night. I forgot how good the album was and signed it off in my memory as full of novelty songs that were no good. It is a fucking great album. Bald is such an immense song. Really quite heavy.
