I’m choosing to interpret this as:

F-word ‘not said often enough in south’ - tribunal judge

Also, and worthy of note, it rhymes with “bumper”, which is important if you want to say something like:

“Dancing at the disco, bumper to bumper. Wait a minute! Where’s me jumper?” (Youtube link)

It looks like one of those “vague, unsure” ones, it’s perhaps too old a word, and with too many vague, possible sources.

Some bits of dictionaries suggest various etymologies - it likely drifted from words in Gaelic, Scots, Arabic and French, like “jupe”, “jump”, “juppe” “jubbe” and so on, which tended to mean things like “smock”, “jacket” or whatever. It’s been around in English for various clothing types for a few hundred years, and referred specifically to the woollen pullover thing from the picture above for 100-150 years.

It has no relation at all to jump as in “leap”.

What would we call it? hallo-old-chum-you-fiend? my-good-friend-the-dishonourable-sir?

Is anyone posh using British Lemmy who can help advise?

I like how the article has gentrified it to “GPS Penis” rather than the “GPS Cock and Balls” outlined in the original poster.

This is true - especially if you were wearing a thick woolly jumper whilst doing it.

What does a jumper have to do with sweating?

A retired British footballer (generally considered a very good one), and England’s “great hope” in the 1998 Football World Cup.

“Little Michael Owen is England’s great hope, he’s only 18, and he’s playing in the World Cup. If we lose, we’ll blame everything on him. No pressure”.

I had a play on the demo this evening, probably about 1hr 30 for the full match. I enjoyed playing it, and I think you’ve got the base gameplay loop working nicely.

There were a few quirks with the AI opponent getting its soldiers stuck in furniture, and repeatedly trying to reposition them until out of energy, and a few times where I struggled with positioning on top of something (instead of inside/under), but essentially no game-stopping bugs.

I was playing on Linux Mint - I didn’t look whether it’s Linux native or running through Proton, but it runs nicely regardless.

Without a campaign, it likely limits the replayability a bit - but the general gameplay itself is fun, and a great position to be in for developing things further, in whatever direction you want to go.

Also, just to note a campaign doesn’t need to be all cutscenes and gripping plot and voice acting and drama - a set of different maps that follow in an order, starting easier and getting harder (or introducing new units or map features on each level) would do the job just fine. Also, some people won’t care about single player campaign things at all - so please don’t take my personal opinion as the opinion of everyone :)

Anyway, it was good fun to play. I’ll put it on my wishlist, and I wish you good luck with the launch and ongoing development :)

Big congratulations for getting this far! Well done! There’s some novel ideas in this, which must be quite hard to do in a genre like RTS which leans heavily on familiarity.

Is it currently just single isolated random battles, or is there some sort of linked-mission pre-scripted campaign to take over the house or anything like that?

[Edit] After playing the demo, I realise it’s turn-based strategy rather than real-time strategy, but still the point stands.

I think so - he definitely played for Leeds. He must be in his 50s now, so maybe he’s took up journalism? :)

May his handful of Revels exclusively contain his least favourite flavour.

May his shopping trolley (shopping cart) always have a wheel which keeps sticking and steering him off to the side when he tries to go forwards.

Black cats of all nationalities are welcome :) The charity that declared the day is from the UK, but the idea that “black cats are beautiful and shouldn’t be overlooked” is worldwide :)

According to the best school playground scientists of the time, opening a packet of crisps upside down (i.e. so the branding/writing is upside down, and you open the bottom of the packet, at the top) actually “made you gay”.

It wasn’t just gay if you did it, but it would literally cause a spontaneous eruption of gayness in whoever did it - who would be permanently gay from that point onwards.

In the 1990s in the UK, it was gay to wear a backpack using both shoulder straps (as opposed to using one strap over one shoulder, which was the heterosexual way to carry things to school).

I genuinely didn’t realise that! It looked like they were missing, and just had the little nubs underneath.

Would you perhaps like to imagine they were missing, if only for the sake of my previous comment? :)

How often do you write the word “wads”? I can see a potential problem.

All three of ours play fetch, but only with specific objects. They’re all brothers about 2½ years old.

The tabby cat plays fetch with fluffy toy balls with feathers on them, the grey cat plays fetch with spare cat collars and the little black cat plays fetch with menthol sweet wrappers.
