  1. no, i think the point is that you shouldn't commit abortion because you could be aborting the next beethoven. taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly.
  2. The funny thing is Israel seems to be doing what you frequently suggest should be done in the area.
  3. A break? What with the 2 games released in the span of 6 years?
  4. Well, the fact that the creator survived the first one really messed things up in changing the two
  5. I think the correct term is nitpicking.
  6. A "bump" that I editted my previous post, as I noticed Peter was in the thread when I did it.
  7. I'm planning on it too, but haven't started my resume quite yet. Here is one that I made for my IIP placement. It had to be on one page (I don't have word installed, so it's no longer in two columns unfortunately, and a bit more general. I ended up getting a job at my University working on ScriptEase. Some wierd stuff also happened when I converted it to RichText with WordPad, as my Student accomplishments certainly didn't happen in 2007, 2008, and 2009. It seemed to make bullets years. 2002 Team player! LOL
  8. If we have an infinite number of monkey's, I have no doubt that we'd also have translated works of shakespeare
  9. The one I saw it sure looked like him. But his face is partially shadowed.
  10. So, how many civilians did Israel kill and how many Hezbollah targets? How many Hezbollah missiles and infantry killed civilians compared to military targets?
  11. From what I understand, the games industry is anything but a "fat money cake."
  12. For the longest time, I just could not understand, What he was saying.
  13. I don't keep up as much any more. But when I'm in the market, I'll do some research to see performance, any issues, and so on.
  14. I was thinking Skeeter more because he's a tech junkie. We can still have the byline that says "Come Here to discuss Hardware" right below it, as it is now.
  15. I am in the process of a total conquest in my RTR game I didn't know you could have retinue swaps. Interesting.
  16. What, no Michael Biehn or James Earl Jones?
  17. Hmmmm...would the 286 even like multiple threads running at the same time? This emulator would have to be pretty intense (and even then still slow as hell).
  18. I'd imagine if I could acquire an infinite number of monkeys, checking their working wouldn't be as difficult as us mere mortals would think.
  19. Does anyone else get the tune for Elton John's Rocket Man whenever they see Profit Man? As for the emulation, I imagine it'd be a real bugger. The 286 is a 16-bit processor, so it'd probably have to find ways to split instructions. Depending on memory constraints, you might need an outside memory manager to deal with extra addressing.
  20. Well, my expansion in Carthage continues, though a bit slowly as I wait for Reinforcements. My 0 star general that hated Carthaginians is now a 4 star general, that also gets an addition +1 against Numidian and Carthaginian troops. So given the area he's in...he's a 5 star general, and frequently a 6 (since he loathes carthaginians already). I had to load up a hotfix for siege towers....as the guys in the bottom would do a dance and all in all my siege defenses rather boring. After weathering a plague in Rome, I sent out a young general with loads of fully upgraded legionaries. Their goal is to take out the Iberians. Turns out they had a feeling something was amiss, as they tried sieging one of my places. Fortunately my full stack of legionaries (with the general and a single unit of Roman Cavalry) were able to siege Orca the same turn. He tried counter attacking with a large stack but lost, so he had to pull of his siege to try (fruitlessly) to save Orca. I demolished both armies! So with a net gain of about 2000 soldiers after the two huge fights, I think the Iberian Penninsula shouldn't be too hard to take. I have also taken Denmark/Sweden (apparently they are just one province), and figured I'd take the rest of Scandinavia. A large stack inside the town there, but my siege has brought their 120 stacks down to 83, so that should make the numbers more in my favour. I also took out a large force in Britannia Superior, and am sieging one of their towns. I see the adjacent one also has a mine (as well as a shipwright!), so it looks like it will be profitable as well. And I'm not going to need to build a big wall to protect myself from the Saxons either :D The war against Macedonia goes well. I have pushed them into the Black Sea, and it looks like they only have a single province left. Turns out they had split Thrace in two, so I'm between two of their provinces now. I cancelled the alliance against them, and am hoping I can do some bribing in the area. The people of Macedon will soon be fully a part of the Roman Empire soon. I also took a general and a full stack of legionaries onto Crete. The two cities there are Rebel from when the Greek Cities were killed. They have some large stacks, consisting of hoplites and peltastati. I besieged one of their towns, and expect a counter attack in the coming months. I also found out that Elephants really are battering rams. During a siege from Carthage, it started running into the door and did damage. Fortunately it didn't survive the hot oil being splashed on it...but I was very confused to see that. Did not expect it at all.
  21. I think it is "teh," because the weaker, more english "l33td00ds" on teh internet are teh bomb and all that In any case, I'm voting Skeeter's Junkyard.
