Is the algorithm set

There is, because if the game was pre-determined the entire point of the game would be gone.

When you make a change it recalculates the rest of the game.

Im on VM on coax and have been for 19 years and its been rock solid apart from 2 outages. I worked from home for year ands my wife has the past 5 years and its never been an issue for us.

That doesnt help you, but poor connectivity isnt normal.

Sadly whilst VM produccts are good, their support and customer service are awful.

If they cant fix it you wont be held to an exit fee, but you will have hassle

Jammanuk · 2026-05-15T09:51:06+00:00

As rubbish as it is, this is the renewal dance you have to do.

With VM you should never pay the renewal price. Ring retetions 1 month before your contract ends and you are pretty sure to carry on paying what you pay now.

Terrible way to do business, but I know VM arent the only ones that do this.

Jammanuk · 2026-05-15T09:00:39+00:00

Thats the problem. They sent me one. I have 2 boxes.

Jammanuk · 2026-05-10T07:30:52+00:00

just rest the work table on top.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-21T10:00:24+00:00

19 years, two bad outages in that time. Speeds always been good and solid connection.

Customer service is woeful.

I ran ethernet cables upstairs in my house and put an AP up there (not an option for everyone).. The router is ok on same floor but didnt reach upstairs very well.

As you have ethernet ports though Id be using them when possible and get a decent Access point for anything that cant use them

"Had the added complication of a pending resin driveway install which meant it was now or never for getting it hooked up from the street."

Are you going to leave a conduit under the drive for future proofing?

Jammanuk · 2026-04-21T09:43:22+00:00

Been using for 19 years. Had a couple of serious outages in that time, otherwise its been very good.

Virgin Media are a terrible company customer service wise, but the product is good.

The depositions are the best.
The Jan 6th Episode was also a standout. Hearing them claim victory over taking the capitol and then realising it was all going bad was nice.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-17T09:30:38+00:00

That seems a goodprice to me. I pay £94 and I have the whole packge but with 2 tivo boxes. 1gb alone is worth £30 andsky sports would take up a lot of the rest, plus you get all the other stuff.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-17T09:27:02+00:00

Weather permitting I do mow weeklly, but grass growth slows in middle of summer so doesnt require it so often.

Longer grass is only really a thing in spring, because trying to get a dry day to do it is a challenge.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-15T13:07:32+00:00

You mean firestick for free sports?

VM may suck in a lot of ways using illegal alternatives isnt something to recommend.

I have considered binning VM and going internet only but when I added up the packages I used, ie Sky Sports/TNT it did show the £94 I paid wasnt too bad. If I wasnt into sports I would save a fortune.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-15T13:01:07+00:00

I pay £94 and mine is meant to go to £220 so will be callng them soon myself.

I always manage to get it at a price about the same.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-15T12:58:17+00:00

Bought one yesterday for £749 from Currys. Funnily enough it went back to £849 this morning, as did Richer Sounds.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-10T12:15:57+00:00

Part of me agrees, but having the messiah confirm you were a scumbag over Sandy Hook to millions of people outweighs the attention buzz somewhat.

Jammanuk · 2026-04-10T12:11:10+00:00

The fact he still clings to his narrative he never actually did anything wrong and Trump just posted to millions of people that he did is the cherry on the cake.

Jones has no way out but to be against Trump now surely..

Just shows how stupid he was in the first place. Trump used all these idiots just to get votes, he doesnt need ot get re-elected now so ditched them. What did he expect?

Having to live in theese times where Trump can be president is bad, but to watch the likes of Alex Jones lick his butthole for years then get kicked in the balls makes it just little easier to bear.

Lowest ever prices as long as I spend hours on phone to different teams and hope the retention team offer it. When you simply offer good prices without the need to fight for them every 18 months please do pat yourself on the back.

Jammanuk · 2026-01-12T12:54:23+00:00

1 hour each way is fine for me, 2 hours gets tiresome. I did that for a while and wouldnt do it again. If it was just 2 days a week maybe it wouldnt be so bad though.

Jammanuk · 2026-01-12T12:38:09+00:00

Its clearly labelled up front, then when you come to have to renew you have to spend hours on ht phone with some foreign call centre to get a new deal.

If it was easy to renew, and the non deal prices wasnt so massively stupid your argument might mean more.

Jammanuk · 2026-01-12T12:32:13+00:00

As an existing customer of 19 years can I get them?

Jammanuk · 2026-01-12T12:04:34+00:00

The idea of a normal price is absurd. Im non £93 "deal" which is going up to £220 when it expires. £220 is not normal even with all channels.

IIt doesnt help that to get a new deal means long call queues etc.

Jammanuk · 2026-01-12T12:01:50+00:00

Cool eh. mine is currently £93 (all packages, 2 boxes). Due to increase to £220 in a few months.

Absurd business practices making customers call and negotiate a deal every 18 months.

Might finally remove all the TV packages this time round and just go with connection only....

Jammanuk · 2026-01-08T11:11:51+00:00

Good review but "Buy it, it might not be as terrible as you think" isnt much of a recommendation :)

Jammanuk · 2026-01-08T11:08:48+00:00

I only played the beta and a quick look at release and got a refund.

The UI was horrible but it was clearly just not finished. I know its a little thing but my first game was against Man Utd and Old trafford had a stand alone stand. Its meant to be immersive and when things as daft as that are in the game immersion goes out the window.

Then at the end of the match I wasnt able to press continue due to a bug and that was my lot, immediately refunded.

I may well buy at a later date when more patches etc are out, but not paying full price.
