Not having one yet is my own fault. I didn't pay attention to the release news all year because I just assumed I'd be doing a campout like I always do (I never pre-order consoles because the launch day campout is too fun) and by the time I realized how they were handling the launch it was too late. Got all the sites on auto-refresh but...my guess is I won't have one until December unless someone lucks into an extra and sells it to me.

FWIW Target's twitter confirmed that the online order pick-up only restriction was yesterday only and that should any stores have units in stock going forward they'll be available in-store. So keep an eye on brickseek or something for your area.

Disc.

Lol, not a good couple weeks for MGT bets. Ouch.

I failed on all fronts to get one today. Am sad.

If you've been a YouTube Premium sub since before last week (11/6), they'll send you a free Stadia/Chromecast combo. https://stadia.google.com/SdFGljSduV5z Get you some. Unfortunately I canceled my subscription to Google services when G Play Music went dark. Edit: As Spork points out, you have to sign up the free trial of the Stadia subscription. Do it then cancel once the free stuff ships. Or not. Up to you. :P

Having just noodled out a way to use my Oculus Quest for Steam VR games, I'm all over this. Thanks for the heads-up!

In a week that saw conservative betting and not a ton of gains from Question cash, ManUtdRedDevils strolls back into the top spot easily outgaining the rest of the leaderboard in Week 7. Can he hold on with half the leaderboard in single week betting distance and nobody out of the running as we enter the halfway point of the regular season? ########## WEEK 7 RESULTS ########## Week 7 Feature Game: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-3.5) at Las Vegas Raiders Brady and the resurgent Bucs ran roughshod all over the Raiders, winning by a score of 41.5(45-3.5) to 20.

($900 for the correct player) Terry Bridgewater was your efficiency leader at the QB spot in Week 7, completing 82.1% of his passes. thewhyteboar was the only player to nail this question. 5) Call the winners: Detroit at Atlanta San Francisco at New England Dallas at Washington ($600 for EACH correct named game winner, $1,000 bonus if you call all 3 correctly) Several players got 2 of these, but only Keyser_Soze guessed all 3 correctly to earn the bonus. 6) Which team will get more total offensive yardage in the Pittsburgh @ Tennessee game? ($600 for the right name) The Steelers racked up 362 total yards of offense to Tennessee's 292. Bets on the Burgh get it. 7) Name the team that will record the fastest single sack in Week 7 (least time between the snap of the ball and the QB eating dirt)? ($800 for the correct call) Keanu Neal for Atlanta comes on a surprise blitz from the safety spot to come across the line unblocked and drop Stafford just 2.2 seconds after the snap for the fastest sack of the week. Biggie was the only player to call the Falcons on this one. 8) Name the player who will rush for the most yards AND the player that will have the most receiving yards in week seven. ($3,000 for each player named correctly, $6,000 bonus if both names are called) Antonio Gibson gashed the Cowboys for 128 yards to be your Week 7 rushing leader while Tyler Lockett had a big 200 yard day for Seattle to lead all receivers.

I'm sad I didn't make my usual "all washington" play and go with Gibson. The team has been splitting carries all season, didn't think one guy would get the load yesterday

HTTFT

I wish there were more duels. That's where it really shines.

I play a lot of Call of Duty and holy shit it's bad in there. Maybe every third match there's someone or multiple people just spewing racist bullshit over voice chat. You used to be able to report players for it, but that option was sadly removed some time ago.
