Yeah I know. But I didn't really want to move them. Though now you could have a billion AT teams in the area. I didn't think it was still contested. You must have had a lone guy running around (or hiding around) in the south area. The funny thing is that there is a small rectangle that I can definitely deploy guys into. If I was interested in putting guys into a position where they are immediately cut off that is.

Errrr, I get the feeling that I totally got screwed over on the drawing of the border. Half of my units are "behind enemy lines." I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that it ended in a cease fire rather than just the end of the round. EDIT: That can't be it, because there's definitely a place where I lost ground (on the North side of the map where you were making your push. I wonder why I didn't claim any. Maybe it has to actually be infantry moving there, and not just vehicles? But I still have infantry behind enemy lines. Plus I have a wierd box in the middle of your territory that I don't even remember coming close to. Very wierd.

What exactly does the nVidia "SLI" do? Back in the old days, the Voodoo 2 SLI kicked the crap out of any single Voodoo2 at any resolution. I imagine nVidia's isn't the old style Scan Line Interleave, as video cards have so much more to do than just render textures now-a-days. It makes no sense why two cards would perform slower than a single one, unless there implementation philosophy is different, or the product just isn't running optimally. Bandwidth limitations? Though it's not like the old PCI bus that the Voodoo2s ran in were super fast either...

The reason why it outperforms at higher resolutions is because it has enough fillrate and power to make graphics less of a "bottleneck." If it's not winning at lower resolutions, it's because something else is the bottleneck. Unless the game has capped the framerate.

They don't have to accept until 48 hours after their last arbitration hearing.

Sounds like a CPU issue.

I'm thinking it sure would be cool to not be sick!

I think I have since forgotten how to play this game. It's a unit placement phase is it not?

Ok... don't they already have that? Because I have a dual core 3.2 Ghz processor from Intel, and it wasn't even the best one. And I heard the AMD dual core ones were better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Raw MHz doesn't mean very much. AMD's processors for the most part could perform as good as Intel's despite being at a lower clock speed. It's more a difference in design philosophy though. Intel made a chip that they could ramp up the clock rates with.

How fast would an external graphics solution be? Would they just be using an existing interface like Firewire. It just sounds like another potential bottleneck. I can't imagine it being easy to compete with a PCI-E 16x connector attached right to the motherboard.

Sounds a bit like Eve Online. I haven't given it much thought though. Eve was a fun game, and I have since used the WoW Gateway drug to MMOs.

Hehe, I wish.

Get 768 of them, and have them each render a single line while at 1024x768!

A couple of friends and I are playing it, and it's been pretty good fun. There's just one thing missing though. The big part of why Diablo is so popular isn't because it's Diablo. It's because of battle.net. I found out after I got the game that there was no battle.net equivalent, and it's a bit of a downer as a result. The game is fun though. I've made a Conquerer, Elementalist, and an Assassin. Two of my friends got it so at least there's some MP goodness.

I did laugh my ass off when I opened up the box with my X1900XTX in it. The thing is huge!

That's a knife versus a holstered handgun. I don't keep my weapons holstered, and besides, my vampire skills have me drawing pistols as fast as I'm drawing knives. 3 yards is pretty close too. Once the range was that close I'd disregard any notion of using a firearm as well. The trick is getting to within 3 yards.

I'm playing the Titan Quest demo. We seem to be limited to 6th level or so, but it's been a decent romp. I have noticed myself smacking weak archers up cliffs at times

Do you play for real money? If not, where do you play.

That's what I'm wondering.

Ok good. I just wanted to make sure it was an accurate representation.

Tell that to the mountains of vampires I have dusted.

Excellent!

Or me. Or Gabs, or anyone really. I was wondering that too.

It's overcast above Edmonton right now, with off and on light rain. Much more bearable.

Only a fool brings a knife to a gunfight.
