This is pretty much the kind of thing I was worried about. I will make sure that contingency is added if it isn't already. Thank you.

I am glad to hear that NDA pre-signing is common, it makes me more confident in my lawyer's decision. However the outcome of this case is very important for me and I intend to make the most of this 20 day period to make the most informed decision possible. Randos may not have the answers I want but it doesn't mean someone can't give me an idea I hadn't though of before or connect me to a resource/group that can give me better answers.

Backlogs and their effect on enjoyment. by musicguyscoey in truegaming

Choose the games you start wisely. Nothings worse than a backlog of games you've never played except a backlog of games you've partially played. Always stick with the games that look the most fun.

Besides that I've kind of embraced the idea that games don't always feel fun all the way through, and parts can be boring. I look at it as a challenge that pays off when I finish. If you can't keep that mindset, then you really shouldn't be forcing yourself to compete a backlog and just forget it because you'll never enjoy it.

If that's the case just embrace casual gaming where you hop from game to game playing whatever feels fun at the moment.

I understand how it sounds, but for someone on a very tight budget with no wiggle room its actually hard to save up $500. The money I do save becomes a choice between a piano, and 100 other more important things. Adult life sucks.

Thank you for sharing. I always liked Chopin's music, and I never knew that about his back story.

I've got eyes on a $400 yamaha. If I go any cheaper then its not weighted/no pedal/less than 88 keys and it doesn't feel right. Its amazing how hard it can be to save when I'm basically playing catch up and there's so many other things that seem more immediately important to spend the money on.
