Fat Princess Neowin Team Thread


Recommended Posts

Doesnt look like ill be getting fat princess this week as i just found out my credit card has been cancelled due to someone trying to put a ?30 top up on vodafone>.:angry::

I wonder if i can stick a ?20 note in to the blu ray drive:D:D

Wtf, the exact same thing happened to me last week, but with O2!

Spooky. By any chance have you used Shopto before?

Yeah I have used shopto this year.

Done a bit of searching around the internet this week and it quickly becomes apparent that a lot of those fraudulent transactions happen to people who have used shopto.

From what I understand it seems the bad guys try a phone top up as you don?t have to speak to an actually human over the phone, this is to test the card should the purchase go through then they would move on to buying more extravagant purchases.

Lucky for me the bank has stopped the purchase and cancelled my card immediately, just waiting for a replacement.

Damn really?

I got phoned a few weeks back by Halifax fraud saying a ?25 or ?30 (cant remember which) phone top up was attempted, and a ?1.79 "tester charge". They asked me to confirm if it was me, I said noooo, payments blocked, no card issued. I thought to myself how the ****? As the bank account it's tied to hasn't been used by me since March this year (old student account).

Now it clicks, that account used to be used for my ShopTo account. I thought that was suppose to just be a "scare", Shop:no:no:

Play the soccer game. Its easy to get it there. Same with Heal, Curse, Burn and Freeze 6+ enemies.

Have not played soccer game yet, I am sure I will.

In Single Player, I have noticed the bots get stuck, I had a couple of bots on my team, stuck in 1 position for the entire game, luckily we still won, but they need to fix the pathing issues. I would see lots of bots stand still, or get stuck around the map.

Man, i'm pretty worried now. I used my debt card with them so i don't know if i'll get any calls from my bank. Going to have to check any charges to my account.

    • What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
