I've been on it when it has been working, but is underwhelming considering you look over the ports, an old rail yard and the sides of high rise buildings, but I didn't have to pay so can't complain that much.  :p

Been working full time for a while now as far as I know, was 2014 when I was on it, don't think they have had problems since.

I'm going to chuck out a tentative data of Sunday the 28th of February for feedback

Not sure where we could do this but there's a really big park with bbq's and stuff near my new place in Haberfield that would probably be pretty good

Why wait? I have never been able to get on board with a flipped spacebar. As for switches, as long as it's not linear, it's all good
