Once weekly... they'd like me to go twice a week but I tell them to "bite my shiny metal ass", that they must think to be brain surgeons at prices at the rate they charge... "so easy a caveman could do it" i tell them. bastards. on that note, if you want to contribute to my therapy, i can pm with my paypal information

... would that resemble something, say o, maybe this... http://www.evcl.com/vw/Others/MaxHippieVan.jpg

I was walking my dogs today, when I felt something warm on the bottom of my foot. Behold, bigfoot poo had squished its way through my screened beach sandals. I dug it out with a stick and carefully place the evidence into a sandwich bag. Excellent, I thought, priority mail to Darth_Rob!

When I spotted this, it made me think of some of Jahled's works. http://uploads.neowin.net/forum/post-45285-1182632119.gif

LMAO @ Emo Crayolas

Watch for F10, it ejects R2-D2, good luck finding him in the dark of space if that happens in hyperspace.

Delighted! This is much better... now I don't get panicked at the top of every hour waiting for my Planetarion ticks to rollover.

Luke get's a bunch of attempts to be capture by Empire/C'Boath in the novels which mostly fail, perhaps one succeeds? Replace Luke into Han's slot. ... and we'll just assume they slapped the Falcon's hyperdrive into his X-wing.

Yeah, no problem. I'll find another alliance to join, all players get protection for first three days to build up their planet and so far I'm in top 100 of the ~2000 players this round. Unfortunately that doesn't mean much unless you have a strong alliance to work with.

Dude, don't pull those mind trips on me... I've slept like 6hrs in the last three days... *grabs another beer*

The board time is running seven minutes fast. I notice things like these

Yeah, don't you love the way this country is going. It's wrong for the kids to touch and okay for the teachers to have sex and marry their students. There was a news story yesterday floating around about a 40yr old science teacher and track coach who is now legally married to his former 16yr old student and track athlete. I think it's contagious because I'm not nearly as turned off by the new Michael Moore movie as his previous works.

About the serious note of your request and our previous discussion, overlooking version identification for the moment, it would be possible to script a .bat file or similar to pass a registry key to regedit.exe and flip the installation that is installed, so players could easily have Rebellion in the standard folder and Reloaded goes elsewhere like %program files%/LucasArts/Star Wars Reloaded/ , using the %program files% system variable ensures the installation goes to the correct system partition and bit editon, though technically no way I know works for Vista x64 to play Rebellion, it works on XP x64. X:\Program Files\ or X:\Program Files (x86)\ respectively by the %program files% variable.

I think a lot of talk radio hosts on the right and left make some very stupid remarks so it's not purely a right-wing problem. About Glenn Beck, he was making a weak ass argument against raising the minimum wage on his Headline News tv program one night, and cited an example of a small family bakery and how raising the minimum wage would hurt the business by reducing the number of employees they could have from 5 to 3 to remain profitable. Now, this sounds accurate from the get go, but having worked in a small business for many years and having done the research to start one, there was one critical flaw his argument never took into account which is that small businesses with revenue below 500k annually are exempt from Federal minimum wage laws! I think the disgust in the U.S. is about the candidates pandering and not really having any persona or agenda other than whatever the lobbyist drop in their laps. Both parties candidates have been a let down for their constituents so far into this election cycle and has left many such as myself with little hope for the next 4 years of the White House. While I am a right-leaning moderate, I defended Bush for much of the first term, but over the last two years I have become more and more disgusted by his policies and behaviors. He has lost me on national immigration and border security and stem cell research among others. Now the "turmoil" over talk-radio. It is a free market, American listeners cant stomach the bullshit of the left-wing that gets spewed over the air waves... so long Air America! Right-wing ideas find ears and that irks liberals to their core but to attempt to squash free speech is the liberal equivalent of Guantanamo Bay. They can scream unfair all they want but at the end of day walk away as irrelevant and hypocritical. Talk radio is the smaller beast, if they succeed there, what will stop them from trying to limit Fox News or to get Lou Dobbs booted from CNN from his critical views on immigration reform?

No No... you always have "System Restore"

So often, I enjoy to toot my own whistle. So today, when opportunity presents itself, I could casually reveal (and subsequently brag about) my own IQ of 153 when last tested is still 1 point higher than that of this remarkable two year old girl being touted as the next Stephen Hawking... would anyone take that as a complement? "Her parents knew Georgia Brown was bright. After all, she could count to ten, recognised her colours and was even starting to dabble with French. But it was only when their bubbly little two-year-old took an IQ test that her towering intellect was confirmed. Georgia has become the youngest female member of Mensa after scoring a genius-rated IQ of 152." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=463539&in_page_id=1770

HAHAHA... R2 runs Windows XP, no wonder he had a memory dump after EPIII

The last time I was going to respond to this thread I got booted off the forum by the hack detection, lol. Anyways... my original response with less response and more Ackbar. http://youtube.com/watch?v=tCPjXRaP9no

hacking hacking hacking... i'm a dirty hacker, short and stout, here is my handle, and here is my spout... i'm a little hacker that loves berries and CRREEEMMMEEE! no seriously, fix this! Argh! edit: I see that it's fixed, nevermind

The first tick has official finished. Don't get too late of a start if you are want to give this a try. I need some help, so please sign up, or if you don't like, sign up and raid me either way.

So what happened if I killed Talon Karrde off in Rebellion, story continuity issues? Is Mara Jade a total bitch? Is there a Yasalamari effect? Are the Noghri on the Rebellion or the Imperial side? Does the Gilgamesh find immortaility at the end?

Ah... that explains why the Rebel AI fleet shows up with 20 Corvettes at Coruscant and I have an ISD and 20 Ties defending and it turns tail and run. I'll have to boost those AI morales a bit.

http://www.planetarion.com I used to play this turn based (1/hr) years ago. I stumbled across the website to realize that the new round starts only in a few hours @ 20:00 GMT, June 22. You can sign up for a free account or pay for extras but everyone should join, it's rather addictive. The trick to this game is to have lots of friends and use teamwork by joining an alliance. If you feel like joining up, just make a reply to this thread, and we'll get a SWR alliance or similar up and going. You can join my buddy pack (budious) and/or alliance (SWR), I'm kind of confused about how this works as they have both options now. Just reply to this thread for the join password to buddy pack or apply to the alliance and I will approve your membership after you reply and identify yourself here. About the game: 5 races, each with different types of ships, the goal is mine asteriods and use resources to build ships and advance technology of your planet. Raiding is always the most effective way to gain resources instead of finding and mining new asteriods. Obviously, if you are not in an alliance you are at a disadvantage from the start. Subsequently, within a matter of weeks, one or two alliances will be dominating the game and eventually a winner from that group will emerge. So join up early, unify with an alliance, and pick soft targets early that won't earn you reprisal raids.
