#1950 Taken by Pirate never-never for the mighty G.R.O.S.S !

Pirate's Log: The ship is sailing steady. The Captain is in the top 10 after a fearsome round of raiding, Renegade is selling booze back from the people he stole it from, and Gerakken seems to keep picking up little knick-knacks looted from other empires. Stolen Canadian whiskey all around!

I hear rumours that the RCMP is hunting down pirates but due to underfunding by the Liberal Government the pirates have to date avoided capture.

Na, lurkers are still around. Morning, Tech, er, afternoon.

Trying out your recipe. My latest game is troublesome because of the Torians. Grr.

Was busy at home doing taxes today. And other RW stuff.

But I did get a chance to start a new game. Torians on a spit... Now that's some gooooooood eatin!

At least they didn't get the screech that we have out back in the shed under the Arcean skins ... 'oops, crap'.

We don't have any screech and it certainly wouldn't be hiding in the shed under the 21 Arcean skins.

Problem with them finding the stuff is that if the use it for fule it'll increase the drive output of their ships by about 1000%.

Or they could use it to strip the paint off the hulls. That'd be worse.

Been used for both on the Doom, so I can attest for its quality. Before I had the Yor painter/scraper droids, it was a handy solvent. And we partly escaped our first encounter with the Canadian Ghost Ship due to our booze burning engines. Yep, just throw in a hockey tape while swiping a case of whiskey from the officer's lounge. That's the ticket! So, what's next? Does Canadian whiskey go with Torian Chocolate Casserole? Hmm. Time to find out!

Yes. Particularly good as chaser.

                      
#1963  by Diplomat Technician - 4/12/2004 7:37:35 PM

Weird

damoose, Got one of those nice laid back government jobs?

One more closer to 1 million.

                          
#1964  by Citizen damoose - 4/12/2004 7:43:51 PM

Nope. Took the day off.

                      
#1965  by Citizen damoose - 4/13/2004 6:26:32 AM

Good Morning CSF...

I see our man Tech is now just 26k away from 1,000,000 meta points. Woot!

                      
#1966  by Veteran Disciple777 - 4/13/2004 6:37:13 AM

C'mon Tech go ahead!!!!!

      
#1967  by Citizen Magnumaniac - 4/13/2004 7:08:01 AM

Hello Canadians! Snack here.

Things are looking quite good for the Star Federation. Nice to see you all doing so well.

Just thought I'd add my thanks to others for the information in the latest SG - Rojo seems to be doing a great job. Like Damoose, I now understand SiBCaT a lot better, and might even go back to using a research pick sometime.

Good luck Tech in your surge for 1 million - hope to join you there sometime. Here's another shipment of Yor parts accumulated over the weekend to help you on your way.

                          
#1968  by Citizen Kazzryl - 4/13/2004 7:38:22 AM

Morning Canadians!

Took the day off.


Bum!

Damoose, check the Senate Halls, there is a PM for ya when you have a sec.

                        
#1969  by Diplomat Technician - 4/13/2004 7:47:58 AM

Magnumaniac,

Thanks for the Yor parts one of these days I am going to find out how to give the talking calculators a personality


Renegade,

A couple of pirates are not far behind me.

Sailing the sea call Metaverse a few pirate ships noticed a ship flying a Canadian flag. The pirates notice the ship is called the Technician. Lets catch the Technician is the pirate rally call. Must have alot of high tech booty.


Little do the pirates know the Technician contains only Yor parts. Everybody knows the Guardians have already flooded the market with Yor parts and the cargo has no value.

I am at the point where a game win does little to my score but I still hope to break 1 million before the weekend.

Boss,
What do you think of last nights game.
I think the whole game came down the goal tending.

Familiar with that, it is sad to submit a masso victory to get only 5K in your score.

      
#1971  by Citizen damoose - 4/13/2004 4:10:02 PM

Been awfully quiet here today... Well... time to go home. Maybe even kill some ETs,

Very frustrating. Ottawa outplayed Toronto in every aspect of the game but one. Goaltending. That's the one area Toronto has an edge.

That's the kind of game, if replayed all other variables the same, it would probably turn out in Ottawa's favour 4 times out of 5, but not last night...

That's the way the puck bounces...


                        
#1973  by Diplomat Technician - 4/13/2004 9:17:59 PM

It is not that Ottawa had their chances.

One closer to one million.
Maybe even tommorrow.

I am picking up a new notebook,

3.4GHz P4
1Meg of memory
128Meg of video memory

I think all I have to do to get up and running GC is,

Download Stardock Central,
Enter my Email Address, Serial number for Drengin.net,
Download GC,
GC Media,
Download AP

Am I correct is this all I have to do to get AP up and working and ready for submitting to the Metaverse ?

Do you think I will notice increase in game speed ?

I play now with a 1.2GHz Celeron, 256Meg of memory.

Spent all day in a board room.

Damoose,

It does not hurt if you spam our thread for a change

Wonder if the lurkers are around?
