    I think you might lose all two of your viewers.

    So, in the winter, the latch on my back door shifts just enough with the cold temperatures to get stuck when you turn the knob, preventing the door from closing properly unless you take a moment to fix it. My boyfriend is the only one who uses the back door with any sort of frequency, and he fails to shut it all the way about 99% of the time. If it's windy outside, as it is now, and the door isn't shut, it blows open a tiny bit. And since the door is made of glass and there's light on in here, it's impossible to see anything through it without being very close.

    I finally decided to turn Amnesia off for the night, after reaching a fairly good stopping point and realizing that I was simply a bit fatigued from playing. Just before stopping, I picked up an item, heard the characteristic "Graaaaaawwh" sound, and ran to hide. I hid in a corner on one side of the room, thinking the monster was on the other side, and crouched behind a small wall. Close by was a door. It wasn't until there was already a large hole in the middle of this door that I realized the monster was coming from the other side, forcing me to retreat to the other end of the room, where there were multiple sources of light and no way out. Somehow, either the thing didn't see me or it had a very short attention span and grew bored before it reached my corner. Safe and sound, I hit "save and exit."

    Off to the kitchen to wash my hands and get a drink of tea. I'm minding my own business, thinking how the game had begun to trade in "genuinely creepy" for "predictable and annoying." Suddenly, the door blows open a bit, with the typical sound of the wood scraping against its frame. I jump. Then, after recovering and realizing that my boyfriend didn't see my response, I proceed to fuss at him for the millionth time for failing to close the door.

    Embarrassing moment avoided.
    stop playing spooky games, makes you paranoid

    I'm guessing that it doesn't record forum views. Because according to EP, several threads have been watched far, far more times than youtube says. And sorting by most viewed puts vids that youtube says has 1 view at the top and vids it says has 50+ somewhere in the middle...... So either the youtube sorting is screwed up (somebody else said it works for them), or it's not registering views through the forum as actual views.

    ...

    I think I'll test this later to find out for sure.

    Perhaps he should (as Ray once said) stop taking jobs
    On the bright side, he has delightfully good luck when it comes to staying alive. There are plenty of people in the RE franchise who can't boast the same.

    But it's fun! And it's been awhile since I've played something on the computer. It's not exactly the most demanding game on the planet, but I'm proud of my little netbook for being able to handle it.

    The door to my garage is like that too, although it's the lock on the handle that's broken, so the door can never be properly closed. It's also weighted though, so it can never be ajar without a door stop or something blocking it from closing. One night I walked out into the kitchen to get something to drink, and since the refrigerator is right next to the door to the garage you face the door right as you turn and walk into the kitchen. So as I turned the corner and walked into the kitchen, right as I was about to put my hand on the refrigerator handle, the door swung open about halfway and then slammed closed, as if something had pulled it from the other side and let it close on it's own. It freaked me out for a second but I figured a strong gust of wind must have blown it open or something and shrugged it off. That's when I realized that none of the windows were open.

    Also, playing on a ~10" screen with a 1024x600 can be a lot more immersive that I had anticipated.

    Also, it appears my theory is correct. I viewed one of them as a guest on youtube and it went from 12 to 13 views. I viewed the same one through the forum and it stayed at 13.

    But at least it was just creepy all by itself, and you didn't catch yourself even for a split second thinking that an imaginary monster was tearing down the door to come and kill you.

    Second opinions?
    Make the hot chocolate and then use it to make the ramen instead of water.
