    • I'm too old for this :-D (or... how a new game made me learn how to record my gaming at age 55)

      Damn your eyes, Dynamight, haha, so enthused was I was with the last Alpha test that I went off and learned how to record it. As I predicted before the test week started, I was the one wandering round in circles, but I loved it! I didn't interact with anyone in chat until about day 5 (I'm shy, haha) but when I did they were super friendly and encouraging.

      Anyone want to see an old dear's adventures in Fractured it's here:

      Not only am I new to play testing, but I'm new to this type of game, so I suppose in that respect it's not a bad test of interaction with the interface.

      [p.s. if you get as far as watching any of the captures, my accent is UK West Country/Dorset. Can't believe it's so strong when I moved to London at 18! I'm now living in Ireland, so hope to confuse it even more 🙂 ]

    • Spare processing time? - Protein modelling studies to aid COVID-19 drug discovery

      Hi everyone,

      This is technically Off-Topic, but on the other hand, really pretty On-Topic right now.
      I'm guessing some of our number have some very powerful machines, and also need to sleep from time to time - if so, maybe consider installing Rosetta@Home from Uni of Washington.
      Similar to the SETI screensaver from years ago, it uses background processing and downtime to help crunch calculations. This time it's to compute the possible 3D configurations of proteins involved in COVID-19 and thus help design drugs which may bind to them/block them.
      Windows, Android devices, and I think Linux, supported.
      Here is the site to join: http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/
      or just install BOINC and then select the Rosetta project.
      Thanks in advance, lovely gamers!

    • Psychometrics to establish natural fit

      Has it been suggested by anyone already to have a welcome test for new players to assess where they might be most happy? Could be interesting (as long as data isn't shared with law enforcement or any company with a name ending in Analytica 😄 )

      You people are ace! I hadn’t even expected an answer to my rather flippant post and only just remembered to check back. I’ve been laughing away at the example questions 😄
      I’m off to lick some rocks...

      p.p.s. to my amazement, someone actually watched and commented on one of my videos. I hope he will join the forum so that you can give him a knowledgeable answer.CommentOnYouTubeVid2019-07-23.JPG
