  1. Damn, sorry Anderson, I completely forgot about this (had a hell of a past two weeks)! So sorry mate. I will focus on it tomorrow if I can't dedicate any time to this tonight, promise! edit: can you post the numbers from net_graph 3 too? If it has only been happening in the pub as of late, perhaps some rates need to be tweaked. What I think would be easiest is to find me on steam either tonight or tomorrow (if you see me in pub, grab my attention and I'll happily leave to help you out; again, sorry for forgetting about this Allow me to make it up to you , and we'll jump in vent and the pub and see if we can work on this hands-on, instead of posting and posting here. If I can witness the changes happening while watching what you're changing, might make it easier to pinpoint the issue.
  2. So I am working on my next novel (which might actually be the next next one), and I have a few visceral and extended scenes that takes place in the Vietnam war, along with another flashback that deals with WWII (and quite possibly one that falls back to the American Civil War). Now, I know we have many service members as part of this group (not sure who though), and I was hoping that one or two or more could possibly help me with some questions that will assuredly arise during my research. Studying up on these events is never enough for me to feel as if I'm representing the truth of the wars; I have found that getting first-hand accounts from either members of the Armed forces, or even those who have spent considerable amounts of time studying them, adds much more credence to my writing and also allows me to honor the events themselves in that they will be historically accurate and not just products of my imagination. Anyone who think they might be willing to help me on this, can you send me a PM here on the forums or an email (oizown at gmail dot com) or even hit me up on Steam and let me know you're interested? I would greatly appreciate it, and would happily acknowledge your help in a dedication and gratuitous thanks in the back of the novel, along with happily promoting any words of your own. Also, if anyone has any sites/forums they frequent that have those that are interested in these events (or who were even there and do not mind talking about it), can you post 'em up? I will also gratuitously thank you in the credits and even shoot you less in the pub! And of course, anyone who helps me will received signed copies once it comes out (although a release date is way far off; thinking late 2013). Thank you for any assistance you all can provide; I sincerely appreciate it. Cpl. Tim Brown ps: As Gearhart already did, videos that you find informative I'd LOVE to see posted here too!
  3. ok you're all now banned for ruining my fun game time
  4. I have no qualms with people who want to hurt themselves for my amusement, but they need to up the voltage on those things dammit.
  5. $@)*%@)$ Dammit logs. i was so proud of my score too.
  6. Sinuous BEAT THIS. OR DONT. EITHER WAY QUARTERMAN SUCKS.
  7. Name: !medic Steam I.D: STEAM_0:0:19141666 Reasons for the Ban: Tag-teamed with another player to mg-tk in spawn Recommended duration of ban: Forty five years Demo Provided?: N; borschtbomber(bar) and Pvt. Michel witnessed
  8. Name: GOTT MIT UNS Steam I.D:STEAM_0:1:19337510 Reasons for the Ban:Tag-teamed with another player to mg-tk in spawn Recommended duration of ban: A decade and a half Demo Provided?: N; borschtbomber (bar) and Pvt. Michel witnesses.
  9. Name: "ҚӨпĎ" Steam I.D: STEAM_0:1:13284929 Reasons for the Ban: Team wounding 3 or 4 times in spawn Recommended duration of ban: A day? Maybe a week? Or a billion years? You pick. He played like a groovy cat most of the round, then did it towards end of map; might have just been frustration since we were losing. Demo Provided?: N; couple other 1stMRB(Magoo/Legend/Richards) were there (on other team), but he left right after doing so.
  10. HRM. I'm not 100% sure on what kind of impact Xbox has, so let's kill some other possible options. Next best bet is rate issues; do you use any of the net_graph's? If so, what are your figures like there? And if not, type net_graph 3 into your console next time you're online and gimmie those rates!
  11. Sounds like an issue with latency, either on your end or the shooter's end. If so, the only real fix is to either move closer to the server () or cut down on any other bandwidth-hogging things your computer (or computers on your network) are doing when you game. If you have other people in your home who are online when you are, make sure they aren't downloading anything or also playing video games; if you have a "Light" internet plan, it can make a difference. Hell, even if you don't have "light", if someone is watching Netflix while you're playing game, it can impact it. I can't remember what your ping is like in server offhand, where are you located?
  12. Name: likeablizzard? Steam I.D: STEAM_0:1:15077360 Reasons for the Ban: Shooting rockets at teammates in spawn, then disconnected Recommended duration of ban: Anywhere from a week to a billion years Demo Provided?: N; multiple 1stMRB were present tho (Panda/Zorbanos/Gearhart)
  13. It was, quite possibly, the greatest event ever held in that server since the beginning of time. Somehow, Parker upped the max # of people allowed, and we had at least 50 in there at one point, 25v25. There were naked girls dancing on webcam-sprays across every wall, free booze was delivered to everyone's home, and I'm pretty sure the President of the United States stopped by to, as he put it, "pwn some noobs." ( The private was down! Let's reschedule!)
  14. I know next to nothing about fantasy football, but always been interested. By no means do I think I should sign up, since I barely know anything about NFL, but could someone direct me to a site/place where I could learn about it?
  15. I don't think I need to say anything more about this...
  16. Link He was a big influence for me in my pursuit of writing/journalism/integrity. The City and the Pillar, '48, was a brave depiction of homosexuality that, in my opinion, helped fuel the early beginnings of acceptance for that not only that lifestyle (I'm not gay, but I fully support gay rights), but equal rights for all repressed individuals. To publish something of that magnitude in that day and age was incredibly risky, but he did it anyways, because that is what this art is all about; pushing people to imagine things they wouldn't normally be able to conceive of, to challenge perceptions that need to be challenged, and standing up for things no one else would stand up for. His first novel, Williwaw, was one of the first about WWII and sparked a huge literary movement and change in the documentation of such violent conflicts. He is more influential to our concept of journalism and writing than I can ever properly represent here, so I encourage anyone not familiar with his work to read up on him in honor of all that he has done for the world. RIP Eugene, you have left a great legacy, and will be remembered for a long motherfuckin' time.
  17. It's obviously Quarterman. He told me so. I have demo!
  18. word Cutts, you got that on lockdown! *clapclapclapclap*
  19. Blimp. Proof as follows: Their statement about flying at that moment Professionally-done photo showing blimp; notice its similarities to blurry image in video Possible redesign of normal Goodyear blimp as a "lighship", resembling "UFO" even more so Finally, Goodyear's Twitter confirming it was them.
  20. Just for ya'lls information, this is a fake viral video put out by a Social Media Manipulation company in order to create viral videos to promote their ability to do so. If you would like the evidence, I have it gathered somewhere in a reddit comment from last week. Feeding laxatives to seagulls WILL kill them. You can do your own research by checking the other videos from the uploader of the original seagull video, and you'll find 2 or 3 more "viral" video attempts. WHOIS information on them will direct you to a company whose business statement clearly states the art of manipulating social media sites.
  21. You're not a Brown, so anything you claim here means the exact opposite.
