Hey folks,

Ended up being successful in the E02 from February this year however I’m 1086 in the Merit list. I’ve been an agency AO through Recruitment Co. In Lisahally for nearly 2 years now and at this point I’m really struggling to soldier on until I get placed, the work is just relentless, every day my head is splitting once I finish from the pressure to meet SLA and I dread work almost every day, I have a great track record in there and get on with everyone really well, never had any problems in however if your stats drop an inch they’re onto you instantly. Every day there’s a “ok guys we need you working as hard as possible today SLA is tight” message in teams. Haven’t taken any time off this year and have just come back from a holiday which has been a slog to build up days for. It’s just gruellingly repetitive and high paced 24/7, I completely understand I’m here to work and work hard but it’s just really taking a toll, it’s such a convoluted process to book time off and they’re very strict about when you can book long periods. The long and short of it is, do you think it’s worth staying on and hope for my E02 placement before the end of the year or should I seek something elsewhere to tide me over until then. Sorry for the rant! Cheers.

Hey folks,

Anyone actually managed to play a MP galactic conquest on AOTR or its related mods? I’ve seen a bunch of submods popping up for it and I’d like to try give it a go with a friend if anyone’s got any insight.

Also seen the Overseer and StarrySky play it on YouTube and it seemed fairly stable

Hey folks, I’m from Northern Ireland and I and a few friends are planning on making a pilgrimage to Bloodstock 2027. It’l be all our first metal festival, something we’ve been wanting do do our whole lives however I’m trying to figure out the logistics of having the best experience possible as is someone who has to hop over the water to attend. We’d love to be able to camp in Midguard since we want to mingle with some fellow metal heads etc. We have the option of getting a ferry from Belfast to Liverpool then drive on to the festival however that would be a grueling almost 8 hour drive after 4 days or partying which I don’t think is wise. We can fly over however this means we won’t be able to bring our own camping gear and I had planned on bringing raised camping beds and a large tent.

SO my real question is to anyone who has to travel a significant distance to the festival, do you guys usually opt for pre pitched camping in Asgard through something like tangerine fields and pick up anything extra you need from fat Frank’s? Or in general just any advice for attending the festival when having to travel a bit to get there.

This experience has been a very long time coming so I want to try get it right the first time, cheers!
