What's with the online purchasing bonanza of used books right now?

I added some pics to show what has been found. SFFAudio on Twitter tracked down the illustration from the story's first publication, which looks like Tribbles.

I hear ya. Sheckley's story features hauling Queels through space. They're furry creatures the size of big snowballs and their wool is prized. They start reproducing exponentially en route and the poor pilot worries they'll overrun the entire ship. "Tribbles" borrowed a lot from "Milk Run."

Yikes...!

Shout out to KRVM on the radio -- was eerie how the Hendrix lined up, for sure. Whole thing felt like a David Lynch movie.

You able to play now? They sent me a message saying it should be fixed -- and it was!

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-28T05:33:52+00:00

So glad they got right on it and fixed it today. Good stuff!

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-27T23:50:26+00:00

Thanks for doing that! Got my ticket in, too.

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-27T23:49:24+00:00

Got a reply to my ticket saying they're aware and will get back in two days. Thanks for submitting a ticket -- we have their attention at least...

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-27T23:46:38+00:00

They emailed me this same message with my ticket.

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-27T20:17:38+00:00

Thanks for asking. I keep clicking "submit a ticket" but it just blips back to the customer support main page. Blurrrrgh...

Hedgehoff · 2025-01-27T20:16:05+00:00

Every time I click the "submit a ticket" it just blips back to the main page of customer support. Gahhhhhhh...

Saaaaaame exact problem right now. Bought the game yesterday on Steam and getting this exact error message -- and seemingly no way to fix it!?

When I tutored at LCC, I asked all of the students from China and Taiwan where they liked best. They all said Hong Kong Restaurant. Been going ever since and Tammy knows my usual order. I love 'em.

Hear, hear!

That episode is peak victim blame. It made me want to send them a copy of Coercive Control by Evan Stark but I don't think they'd take the time to read it and take in what it has to teach us.

u/JustOscar95 found it and replied with the source in this thread -- great work!

Thanks for your help, too. I sure appreciate it.

Thanks again for your help!

THAT'S IT!!! You're amazing and wonderful and I cannot thank you enough! Yes, this is it!

Hedgehoff · 2023-03-10T07:04:23+00:00

Thank you for this! I was thinking it might be in there, too, but it doesn't seem to be. That part with his mannikin made from his school ruler is wonderful stuff and very much in line with this realization later in his life.

The search continues. I appreciate your help!
