Do you think the AVERAGE person could eat 1.7 burgers (proburly fries aswell) a day for over 32 years without turning into Mr. Lardarse?Well, when he ate the 19,000 hamburger he weighed almost 85 kg about 187.4 lbs, not to bad for a 6 ft tall person.

quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: The Texas still exists as a museum, as do about 3 others, including of course the Arizona... although it is underwater. If you do some more research, I believe that you will find about 8 battleships that are museums, and then of course the Iowa, which is in mothball right now.Very true, I was searching for ships that would fit in with the US Navy's ideology at the moment a.k.a have the fastest ships available. Only the Iowa Class ships really fit this requirement and possibly the North Carolina Class and or South Dakota Class.

quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: THe age of the battleship is not wuite over yet, I think they may have one more lifetime left to them. After some research I found out I was wrong, there are four battleships remaining: USS IOWA (BB-61), USS NEW JERSEY (BB-62), USS MISSOURI (BB-63) and the USS WISCONSON (BB-64). All of them are Museums except the USS IOWA.

Not likely, as I think there is only one battleship remaining in the fleet and it is in mothballs waiting to be scrapped. Unfortunately, the age of the battleship appears to have ended many, many years ago.

Chat box in MP displays too much info
jamotto replied to Captain's topic in General Multiplayer Discussions
quote:Originally posted by Captain Reed: Now I do agree with the idea of adjusting the cloak to compensate for the change of the chat box. With the cloak changed to maybe deactivate before it burns out or something like that might make it more of a challenge to do a sneak attack because of the limited amount of time before cloak becomes inactive. This sounds fine but, wouldn't this make it very hard for you to quote:This is especially true when you are trying to sneak into a sector under cloaked conditions. It makes it hard when an enemy is already waiting for you to enter the sector to really gain an advantage on somebody.If you entered the system cloaked would you have enough time to reach the intended target considering the long HJ time's for the ships you use before the cloak was turned off? -

They're Raiders after all and need a fair chance too, they already have their hands full with being massively outnumbered! Well, thanks! However, you run the risk of having your post deleted. No he doesn't. He posted on topic. You didn't. So I deleted your post. I disagree. My post was on topic. I simply said that if you are going to truncate the server info, you may consider modifing the cloaking, per your earlier post in a another forum. I would have to agree with Cc here. I see no real reason for changing it in the first place. Even with the knowledge that there is a cloaked ship in the region, it is still difficult to find the exact place they are hiding. -

Looks like a good system

Even if these laws didn't exist you still would be paying outlandish taxes as politicians would find something else to spend your money and my money on. Most, but not all, of these laws are old relics from the 1800's or so, it is funny that they are still on the law books.
