Jahled

...emmm...i'm not sure about those two; but I found this rather odd wallpaper when I hacked into YOUR computer this afternoon with my trusty ZX81: http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RgC7BC0VnfWkJYDhFiM!ae2hOwBb*oSC3uQFWUCUH1kpzpZ*IXhf0Wa4bAHrkbjhfbTUJdhExUanmUC44kx4o5Q*icJEJKkQGPcWrqWbg44/chewbacca1.jpg?dc=4675417513204100333

...Jahled observes this display of gibberish...and reaches for another banana....whilst chewing on a peanut... Suddenly he farts. The forest leaves rustle. Nearby, a bush sheds it's load of berries. ...Jahled burbs loudly as he casually discards the banana skin. Nearby, it rudely lands ontop of a startled parrot; which squarks loudly in alarm... ...Jahled mutters something incomprehensible....and scratches his armpit...

Bored, I did a Google search for, 'Yoda's Ears.' This is what I found: http://www.yodajeff.com/

....Jahled the Cave Troll cursed Gonkraidor for such humiliation and turned to Dinochick in the politest way he knew; he grunted a short incomprehensible greeting, farted and smiled as he began to pick his oversized, snot-riddled nose...before beginning to smash his key board with a lagre piece of wood...)*^$)$%* (_^%_($&%_(% +)&(*+)*^$+)*^%.......he struck again in frustration....+)+)*$^+)*^£$+^....+)^*+)*^%£_(%_(%_%_%_&(%&_(%&*(%*^%$^*$....and grunted....farted....burbed...."&$*(%$+%+*$_)($OIHFDLKHFL@KJNB)*_}...and finally headbutted the strange monitor that flickered before him....he was certain his 'charm offensive,' would woo the bone-collecting Dinochick to wipe up his snot... Reality: A packet of fags lands on the back of his head! Oh dear! Jahled must log out...

Ok guys, just downloaded this from curiously enough, the downloads section, and i'm stumped!! Does some kind soul wont to explain a few of these files, what to do with them, etc...

Master of flooding: Jahled! Dude, please explain this one to me, this 'flooding' element is bugging me!

Emm..some interesting thoughts Tk, dude, but without wishing to sound like a smug know it all (I know no more than the rest of us!!) I think the final battle scenes in EP.II spelt out the demise for the Jedi Order in the eyes and mind of George. The constant referances said by Mace/Yoda (i'm watching the footie in England at the same time, so my quality of referance is constantly distracted...!!!) about being unable to spare Jedi for missions, spells out out the order's doom in his vision. It's symbolic. All the high council can muster take on the droid army, before Yoda arrives with Palpatine's future Stormtroopers.... No treachery is needed, the deception has already been cast by Palpatine, the future Emperor. He is destroying their ranks through the conflict he has engineered...

In my experiance, when i've started a game with a character either ticked on the wrong side or double ticked as you're stating, it seems the AI follows no logic or assessment when it screws your game up. It's completely done at random, without any logic so far as to how hard or not, the incorrectly ticked charater is! Not such a bad question actually, because; unless i'm proven wrong (and this post isn't an ego smug git, kinda thing), but the recruitment element at the beginning of the game is done completely at random.... apart from those characters outlined in the game manual.

Spoken of in the book of ROTJ, I mean how the heck would the rebels defeat all those mile long Star Destroyers with 300 meter long Nebulons and a couple of converted civilian Mon Calamari Cruisers? Even in the original book it states at the battle of Yavin the Imperial fighters had better targeting systems and lasers (sadly not reflected in our favourite game). The Imperial forces were plunged into confusion; not perhaps because they were directly mind-controlled, but say because they were greatly motivated by the dark side of the force.....

...Jahled sections off portions of his supper on his plate....

Emm..i'm actually holding back about my overall verdict on the prequels until Episode III. I admit feeling glum after Ep.I, but what were we all expecting? It's the time of the Old-Republic, so no Star Destroyers, no Imperial Stormtroopers or Officers, and no TIE fighters. I think George was trying to focus Ep.I on the opening lines of the original Star Wars book, where he talks about the corruption of the republic's senate and the manipulation of Palpatine. As far as the latter is concerned he has succeeded brilliantly as the tale unfolds. In Ep.II, Palpatine is engineering a rebellion against the disintergrating republic he is the head of just so he has an excuse to create his army of clones/Stormtroopers. Despite all the 'I'm a frustrated teenager,' Anakin bits in Ep.II, the plot is working superbly. When I left the movie theater after Ep.II I was having a rush; the final scene in Ep.II involves just what Palpatine, the Emperor, had designed and engineered, the creation of his legions of Stormtroopers and the first hints of his Navy, that look a decade or two away from a Star Destroyer. He's looking on all chuffed from the balcony; but look at poor old hippy Bail Antilles, he looks on, and then away in despair; perhaps he's just figured out what's gone on.... and then they played Imperial March.... I left the movie buzzing!

The most meaningless poll I have seen; you didn't include the choice of neither, a bundle of cabbage radiates more dread and fear than the dude's avatar....

Well guys, it has to be The Empire Strikes Back, because it's the darkest of the movies, had exactly what we all basically want in Star Wars; lots of Star Destroyers, an even larger one at that, revelations about the Force, and our rebel heros being driven hither and thither by Imperial might.... ..and no Ewoks. Good poll.

Back to the original poll, it's curious that know one has voted for the timeline of the the prequels.... Note date of this post for future replies.

Blast!!! http://www.everybodyswhore.com/emptyspace/images/cavetroll.bmp

...he'll probably get eaten by a giant dog....

Must of been that tasty grub that came with the paper plane!

Gosh! Where?

HOLY IMPERIAL STAR PIES!!! These models are getting better and better and better! You model makers are excelling yourselves and injecting serious amounts of LIFE into our beloved game! Our man in Costa Rica I think said it on behalf of all us, thanks fellas; Mask, Pucho, and the guy who paid for it's creation and donated it to us guys at swrebellion. I'm running out of models to replace! Is there a card for this ship in the cards section; anyone know?

As SOCL tramped around the dank, smelly swamp...a paper plane suddenly flew out of the trees and landed in his ear....his fingers twitched as he opened the piece of paper... It was from Jahled, high up in the branches of his tree. There was even a tasty grub for SOCL. 'How thoughtful!' SOCL muttered, and nibbled on the grub. http://www.twistedmindz.co.uk/yodaspeak.html

...indeed! Maybe it was something to do with the Skippytrooper's inability to blend in with it's surroundings.... http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQCzBBsV5e2Ha4YK6o35SrZ0xWzD8t3Svhf!uTis!oOdtVQDjDeyO9uQGRo0uiwSfku4fdMF7RcWa5uk3qsqaJ34yFI5Rgj2eqB5*rVBrZs/koameleon.gif?dc=4675417204647557298

..in a dark and dank lumpy corner of a swamp, only Yoda could make sense of SOCL's murmers and mutterings.... ears you must clickerty, dude, all gibberish apparent shortly, he he, it will.... http://mysite.freeserve.com/myflash/demo.swf

By the way, that was a sentence with 131 characters (109 if you leave the spaces out) comprising a total of 23 words. 54 of these characters are in italics and there are 7 CAPITALS in the sentence. To top it off, the lines contain a total of 5 comma's and one period. You see, there I go again! ...emm..you are actually a robot, arn't you....I mean, it's just not normal...

Preety cool eh? Enjoy the site, it's above and beyond me, but cool dudes lurk around here producing coolness such as this! I never got to grips with the ZX Spectrum, so I just have to sit back and appreciate what model makers hurl at as us...
