    Was googling PES 2014 earlier and got a redirection message & CAPTCHA box earlier with a messaging saying
    "Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot."

    Is this a problem or should I have googled FIFA instead :confused:

    They do that if you're looking up dodgy things multiple times. Or so I hear. :)

    Though don't know what PES could be apart from Pro Evo. Maybe like you said, EA are in bed with Google as well.

    Dodgy things? The only odd thing I googled in the last few weeks was like specialist sheep fencing for my dad which took forever, other than that its been boards & updating my Norton 360.
    Maybe EA bought the exclusive rights to google Winning Eleven blog.

    Ah there's the problem. Boards. :)

    Maybe someone else who uses your internet? Though it's usually just within a certain period of time. So like once a hour would be okay, but constant searches within like half an hour for things like pirated stuff or p0rn would cause it to popup. I haven't tried it indepth but I think when I messed around with it after discovering it, it seemed to have a short enough window.

    You still get it no matter how innocent your search is at the time.

    Maybe specialized sheep fencing means something completely different in Yank.

    Think I might know now, I sent an attachment to a cousin in new yawk last night after he told me he was dating an 19 yr old, it was a picture of peedobear which I had to Google. Not my fault he was only boasting. :pac: :pac: :pac:

    Where was Joanne Cantwell tonite to ask Trap if he'll be considering his future after the game?
    If Clare lose I hope she asks him that he might mandible claw her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    I'd like to see Clare win it despite Davey. I see a lot of last year's Galway in there (more skill and confidence than tenacity and physicality) but they don't have the same inconsistency issues like Galway do based on tradition. They just didn't have Tony Kelly's in recent times. I have a funny feeling that regardless of who wins tomorrow that there'll be a different champion next season.

    Anybody from Waterford able to tell us how good yer minors are? Hawkeye probably won't be fit to start for Galway on Sunday (rough Debs night apparently).

    I think it`ll be passed around a bit for the next few years, think both teams Sunday will win one eventually. We`d fair want to win one in that time. Hope Clare win it cause my Mum will be delighted & my Uncle & Godfather(insert WWF The Godfather gif) are flying over from the states for it. I think Clare are better than us last year tactically but can be very naive at times & give away easy scores & frees.

    Is pain and gain worth seeing


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,042 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno

    Waterford have some very talented individual players which have got them this far inspite of fairly inept management team. Great goal threat but forwards are poor in the air. If Stephen Bennet and Paddy Curran hit form and Waterford cut out the silly fouls in scoreable areas then i give them a chance.

    Don`t know if its on it but I watched Dredd recently & thought it was great.
    Here is a scene from it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 28,910 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Dredd's a great movie if you can get it. I have it on blu ray. Tempted to watch it now for the first time since the cinema.

    But think I'll start a game instead. Maybe Lego City Undercover.

    They're favourites so should be fairly interesting.

    And Judge Anderson is pure swoon in it.
    No games for me this week flung me controller earlier like a child.

    Was forced to see it in 3D as there was no 2D showing in my local. One of the very few live action movies where 3D worked well in those slo mo scenes.

    Have never done that myself, but definitely wouldn't want to do it with the Wii U controller. :) Just about to start playing Lego City now. Started up the Wii U and ended up playing a bit of Super Metroid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Them slow mo scenes looked made for the cinema in 3D, looked okayish in HD too. Darksiders 2 the boss fights are a Sort it out yourself variety & then crow which is meant to lead you on the path which was so F'N frustrating when you can't fast travel.
    If you have a WiiU & haven't played Wind Waker boy are you in for a treat twas gorgeous on the Gamecube back 10 years ago.

    Went in to HMV on the opening morning. They didn't really have much in their "grad reopening sale" but there was a lot of people. Managed to pick up the Spider-Man trilogy on bluray and the box set of firefly.

    The voucher situation is long though. I'd to register the card, post the card, recieve the card and spend it between two certain dates. I suppose beggars can't be choosers.

    Have the first Darksiders on PS3. Haven't played it yet but I will. Played WW on the Cube but will get this one. The comparison vid they released during the week makes it look so different and I remember it tlooking great.

    Delighted HMV is back open , usually spent ages in there when in dublin or when we had it down in Newbridge

    Ref bottled that decision should of been a red for striking his head.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Thank god Clare drew. Ger Canning annoyed me more towards the end than he pissed off Trevor Steven last summer.
    Cyril Farrell is fúcking delighted its going to a replay.

    rte dropping the ball by not interviewing him in a boiling room. He's right to not be happy with the referee.
