Telltale Games

jeffdmaples · 08/20/2009, 05:37 am

Was wondering if anyone called in sick from work or school, or if anyone scheduled the day off for this release? I probably would have but i missed the last 2 days actually being sick, so i am at work and i have to go to the doctors afterwards so i probably wont be able to play until tonight

I did last month, but it was a waste of time (& money) so I wouldn't recommend it this time round.

oh cmon, it was a fun hour and a 1/2 if you didnt use the walkthru. there are still 4 more episodes i think it was worth the 34$. i wish i could miss work to play but it probably wont matter because it hasnt even became available yet

a3HeadedMonkey · 08/20/2009, 05:59 am

I meant it was a waste of time & money not going to work, because the game didn't arrive til well after I had finished.

I didn't call in sick but left right after lunch today. I had a good excuse though: the heat is unbearable here..

vektsilver · 08/20/2009, 06:05 am

I am lucky enough to work from home. I ll just play it when it gets here and call it my lunch time

. But if I had to I would take a day off for this .

Honestly this episode had better have more awesomeness crammed into it as I'm jonesing bad. lol

I played through Sam & Max season1 and 2 because I couldnt wait any more. Not that its a bad thing at all just have played through them a ton already.

ah ok, yea miss 8 hours of work for only 2 hours game play....... i understand that

Oh yes, I called in sick today. And yesterday. And I will tomorrow too. Two wisdom teeth were pulled on Wednesday, and the coincidental release of the second chapter is just the thing to keep my mind off of it.

Except when it makes me laugh, which has been quite often. When LeChuck rode the Merfolk Key, I couldn't help but smile deeply and attempt to contain my amusement. I failed and nearly pulled a stitch.

More like 20 minutes stupid! Liek 10 if you use the walkthrough.

I would have called in sick today, but since it's exam-phase at university, I've already been doing less hours than I should have the last weeks so unfortunately, I couldn't call in sick

I did get up an hour early though to play before I had to head to work.

allready finished the chapter, so I have to go to work any way

I had request off for the day before episode 1 (it was my birthday), the day of episode 1, and then 2 days after it (which would've been my normal days off anyway) but I got laid off before that even mattered.
