  1. ICC have handed life bans to Hong Kong cricketers Irfan Ahmed and Nadeem Ahmed whereas their teammate Haseeb Amjad has copped a five-year ban for breaching the Anti-Corruption Code. The ICC Tribunal heard evidence that all three players "fixed or contrived to fix matches" and "failed to disclose approaches to fix during a number of international fixtures across a two-year period".

     

    With the fixers finding it harder than ever before to penetrate the highest levels of the game, we are increasingly seeing them turn their attention to other avenues in the sport...

    Out now on Netflix.

     

    Completed season 1 this afternoon. The Character arc, depiction of the entire mystery surrounding the forest, cinematography were really well done. The execution and linking up characters equally well executed. The way the Amazonian terrain has been captured, beautiful! But there are problems with the pacing and the last couple of episodes are very unsatisfying I felt. This is a slow burner, I didn't mind that... I like slow burning shows with good, well poised character developments but the ending I felt on this was very obscure and weird.

    Juana del Rio was superb in her role.

    It's just another teen emo drama. Avoid. 

     

    Done.

    Any recommendations on some serious, pensive shows? I'm currently mid-way through Frontera Verde and absolutely loving it.

    Not for me. Too much teen crap in a bad way and overall depressing/sad show. 

     

    Heard season 2 was terrible as well. 

     

    Okay, skipping it then. I don't mind a sad show but provided the melancholic premise is handled and executed well.

  7. Jon Moxley will miss his match versus Kenny Omega at the upcoming AEW's All Out PPV on the 31st of this month with ‘a serious case of MRSA’ in his elbow:

    Cody Rhodes also took to Twitter to state his concern and support for Moxley and mentioned that AEW will actively try and reschedule this match down the road. A replacement match for All Out will be announced soon.

     

    :(

  8. Found this information about the babies, BB Pod and the Incubator:

     

    A Bridge baby, also known simply as a BB, is a baby that has been taken from a stillmother to be used by Bridges operatives. A stillmother's womb facilitates a connection between the world of the dead and a Bridge baby, granting Bridges operatives who establish a trance connection with a Bridge baby the ability to sense BTs. Most babies are retired after a year of service.

     

    Bridge babies are kept in portable pods which simulate the conditions of a stillmother's womb, as they will cease to function properly if they feel they are not in such a womb. Periodically, the environmental conditions of a Bridge baby's pod must be updated in a synchronization incubator with data gathered from a stillmother's womb at a given moment.

    Maybe it is not such a good idea to give the man complete freedom in making a game :rofl: .More than how good(or bad) the game is gonna be personally, I can't wait to see how this will be received.

     

    Yes, exactly. Also, with the huge open expanse of wild outdoor terrain to cover on foot I'm guessing there will be a bunch of things to do and discover!

     

    P.S. I wonder what happens if you forget to click on that "Urinate" option for too long :rofl:

  10. I just watched this Trailer:

     

     

    Okay, so I'm guessing you will need to find these supposed electronic Steel Wombs from time to time throughout the game to keep your Baby alive and have it's parameters inside that BB Pod in order? I'm more then a little confused after watching this.

    One thing though, that BB Pod looks incredibly cool!
