I've gotta tell you. Winamp3 is great. You've got all the options of the original Winamp, and now more. It's got a media library thing now, and it also supports video files now! And the one thing I've been using a lot lately is that opacity setting. Ahhh.. Gotta love that semi-transparent goodness. (Check out a screenshot of minehere. Sweet, eh?) Mad props to the Winamp3 people. Oh yeah, and you can get it here. It's still a beta, and you might have to manually set the file associations (the box in the options menu only works partially), but I like it a lot and think it's worth it.

Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention. Polling closes 1 week from the start date.

Decided to test out the new poll feature, by reviving the RP board. Sure the RP players seem to have moved into the BCC Forum, but that doesn't mean this place is history. I present to you a stroll down memory lane: What's your favorite past (some present) RP or Fan Fiction? ---These only include a handful of RPs/FFs, most of which come from the Semi-Official BCRP Timeline, posted on the BCC Boards. The rest were included by me. Just choose one of the "other" options if I didn't include the one you wanted. They're not in any particular order, although I tried to keep it chronological to an extent. I think all of the fan fictions are on the top.--- [ 02-24-2002, 15:56: Message edited by: Cmdr Nova ]

Can't modify my profile anymore I get this: Earlier, after last upgrade, I'd get a javascript error with viewing the avatars, but I was sure it was something with my system configuration. This one looks genuine, though. Wanted to bring this up. [ 02-23-2002, 15:41: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

Kewl. Yeah, everyone, what SC said! If you've got a good idea for a poll, send it to me. Abuse of this privilege will get you ignored, though. Favorite old wishlist item, anyone? Nah.

More: http://europe.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/02...ines/index.html LOL! Boy, do I feel sorry for those involved. Hm.... I wonder what kind of headlines will show up when someone single-handedly takes New America in MP. (Also, make sure to throw the station upgraded armor/shields/weapons into that equation.) 0R10N 0|/|NZ0RZ J00!

Er.... No. But I brought the b33r!

Second, you've got to use your head--threats and/or attacks on people are not permitted, and neither are trolls. Finally, you've got to remember that you should watch your attitude. People who come on as complete bastards who want nothing more than to make a mess here, are not welcome. Oh, and remember to put those tech questions in the tech support forums. Thanx.

Yeah, I'm prepared for these new updates with new station stats. This'll make MP a bit more challenging. We better start buttin' heads again at the Orion War Room.... Guess I'm on Cadet Grayfox's "deathlist" as well. *sits on opposite corner from Fox and also waits for b!tching to begin*

And if you've got a question, post it in my house (the Newb Forum). Any question, no matter how trivial. I mean it. You don't want to bring up a question to SC at the wrong time. Really. (Most of us vets know this for a fact. ) Just get it answered by someone else first. [ 02-18-2002, 09:25: Message edited by: Cmdr Nova ]

You, JJ, and the two MIA's. (Corporal Neo, and Private Sharpy.) That's not a lot, we know, but recruitment will step up again, once MP is out.

Man.... I don't know exactly what to say. Just keep us posted, and remember--our prayers and wishes are with you.

Hm... Looks like UD and Intel have gotten closer than I thought. The download page brings you to the Intel site (the one that WeeGee linked to). Come on everyone! WeeGee and everyone else, download UD (in the downloads page, it's either the Cancer or Anthrax projects), and go to this team link, and login and join the Battlecruiser Community Team.

I've been using UD (United Devices), and joining in the fight against cancer and Antrax. (Yes, they're one of the groups working with Intel, like in that link you've got.) Uh, see my thread here if you use (or are planning to use) UD, and join my "team". I hate being the one-man show. Please consider joining if you haven't already, and let's make a difference, why don't we? While SETI@Home has you process a neverending wild-goose-chase of radio space data, these Intel and UD projects actually help science by doing the processing that medical researchers were never able to do. Try it. [ 02-15-2002, 13:25: Message edited by: Cmdr Nova ]

Hm... I was a fan of them, once. That was when Wes was still with them. Heh. Looks like they've gone stale. What a shame. Linkin Park is my band of choice, now.

This means it could be 10x harder, not changed, or 10x easier..... This isn't helping. [ 02-13-2002, 18:25: Message edited by: Cmdr Nova ]

Hey! You don't belong in here! This is Orion Fleet, man! And you're just a staff chief! (I had to say it. )

I'm writing some questions for inclusion in it. It's gonna add some fleet history (RP-wise) to it. And I'm also writing some harder questions as well. Be wary....

The last thing I will try is to fly to the drones with my asset, use the shuttles to offload the minerals and leave the drones where they are. BOLLOCKS, that didn't work either.Go into a fighter (if you have one), or FPS mode, and blow them up and buy replacements. I'm pretty sure you can replace them. Then see if that works for you to continue your career.

You know what's funny? Earlier this week, we had some egg rolls and stuff for lunch at my school. They also gave out fortune cookies. The "fortunes" weren't really fortunes, but words of wisdom. Wanna know what mine said?: "You must use moderation in everything you do." Makes me kinda think twice before going off ranting and flaming on other boards again.....

He shows lots of promise. So do you, Ep5. I think we should leave it at that. Orion Fleet Command has some stuff in store for the Academy, and you boys are gonna be our guinea pigs! Enjoy yourselves while you can. Orion Academy is gettin' a big boost soon. You'll see it when the time comes.
