  1. Well I woke up this morning to find 3 people in the TSR server so i joined, and in a couple matches several more had joined and its been around 10 people for a few hours now! I had to leave for a bit but everyone thats been wanting a good match with a larger number, jump in now!
  2. Well we had (i think i counted) 11 different people on this morning in just a couple hours and up to 9 simultaneously
  3. I have been sick the last several days and haven't been sleeping the best because of it. Last night was different though. I kept having nightmares and waking myself up trying to escape the dreams. There was one dream in particular that frightened me well above the rest. Here we go... Ok so the context: Its common for real life events to influence the happenings within dreams. This happens to me a lot actually. So my house is infested with spiders. Little guys are everywhere (some not so little) and i absolutely hate them. Last night I found a large developing egg sac in the cabinet above where I keep the pizza pan.... *shiver*. Anyway, so after making pizza, I sat down in the recliner in front of the TV and debated on whether or not I should go to bed after the pizza or play some C&C3. While I ate, I watched "Granite Flats", a spy show based in the cold war era. So with all these thoughts in my head about spiders, spies and tiberium (since the mission i'm currently on is GDI Sarajevo where the ion cannon triggers the tiberium bomb), I opt to head to bed instead to try to feel better for work tomorrow. Heh.... I wake up in a dream world, slightly but not completely lucid. It quickly turned to a nightmare. I was a GDI soldier and the tiberium bomb had gone off. Furthermore, it had caused further mutations to the surviving wildlife on earth.....including making tarantulas not only intelligent but parasitic. So I'm doing my soldier thing and this lady that reminded me of Natasha from RA starts attacking me. Her eyes are glowing green and her voice is distorted and she most certainly wants me dead. Now....in dreams, often things that don't even make sense in the dream happen...yeah. So now, i have a katana and am a master swordsman (because that makes sense right). So I engage her and after a while I am triumphant....until she starts making threats and oozing greenish goup from her mouth, shortly followed by a massive talking spider lunging out of her mouth as the dead host falls to the ground. I woke up running in place under my covers trying to get the massive talking parasitic spider off my face. She most certainly wanted me for my body but I'm a one woman kind of guy Hope you all enjoyed the read! Also welcome to my head
  4. What I found the last time I looked for such information, indicated that at some point in future development, Windows would become "versionless". In other words, you won't run windows 10 or 8, 7, etc... You will simply run Windows. After which time, the only discernible separation between one "version" or the other will be the kernel build number or access to certain features that came available (or unavailable) at certain dates. I don't particularly agree with this approach for many reasons but most of all, simply because I don't think they can pull off operating under the ideology behind it. That idea being that every Microsoft product that isn't a server or kiosk should run near-identical software, separated only by architecture. @danpaul88 - allow me to quote you out of context for a moment if you don't mind. I know what you'll say next "Well Apple has been doing that for 14 years now!" Well....Apple also brands ALL of their hardware which makes this more reasonable and even possible. I may be misinformed or of poor understanding on the subject, and as such, I am always open to others enlightening me to change my views. But personally I feel that they (M$) once again took the lazy approach in building their flagship product. The idea feels bad in my head in other words. Who knows? Maybe they can pull it off. It will require a better performance than in the past though. Sorry I kinda derailed this, we may need to split the topic now.... P.S. This was not the large writeup I had lost the first time, this is simply an on-the-fly rant so....more to come! Maybe...
  5. But.....that is a mannequin D:
  6. The native support for multiple desktops is really nice. Probably my favorite new feature.
  7. Granted. Taking pity on your case, someone donates a brand new PC!.....Still in the unopened box from 1992! Have fun figuring out Windows 3.1! P.S. Its not all that hard.... I wish for Isaac's answer to my previous wish to be thrown out of the game because thats just plain wrong :
  8. I had a super long reply typed out and almost finished when i accidentally hit the "back" shortcut key on my keyboard and lost every bit of it It was so long that most people would not have cared to read. Tell ya what though: get me 10 likes on this post letting me know there's interest in what i have to blab about and I'll retype it all! Until then, use Linux! :
  9. Click the links and you'll see what I'm talking about
  10. November is almost here, and with a new month comes a new Avatar theme! This month's theme is vintage brand logos! ....and some extra stuff too! Well its time for everyone to kill the next few minutes (or hours for some) on a google image search and then optionally your favorite image editor! Thats right! A new avatar theme! This month, we'll do something slightly nontraditional here. Let me explain... The new avatar theme is Vintage Brand Logos. <-This link takes you to a google image search for just that. That's all fine and dandy....But that's not all! No sir (or madam)! This month we're encouraging everyone to screw up their signatures as well! The "sig theme" if you will, is Vintage Product Ads. Now then! The rules? Well there really aren't any... Choose a real logo or advertisement, or optionally, a fake one! We don't care! Personally I feel that the more outrageous it is, the better! Can't find what suits you? Make your own! We'd love to see it! Both of these settings can be edited through your profile settings page. Have fun! EDIT: And vintage posters too!!! Not necessarily an advertisement. Didn't make that clear earlier but meant to!
  11. But thats the point DT! D: I'm still waiting for someone to point out the horrible error thats been on the poster from the beginning!
  12. Yo hablo poquito espanol But if you'd like, I can try to help clarify your posts a bit. I'll leave it completely up to you. I read spanish a little better than I speak it.
  13. @DP your red lines make a happy face
  14. Español o Português en Chile? Maybe this will help:
  15. Believe me I've argued that point constantly, I keep being told we're not advertising until after the "next patch". We've had about 20 patches since then, but it's still waiting for the mythical "next patch". *shrug* I believe he intended to reply to this block rather.

  17. No and I think so....Its still a closed-source program and since EA is in direct competition with Valve, not likely that EA will play nice. They would allow it on origin before Steam.
  18. Alright then. Lets just all jump ingame this weekend as we have time! The thing that folks keep forgetting is that people are more likely to join if someone is already ingame. If nobody is ingame, the likelihood that one person will get in and play alone is low. Personally I think thats the problem. We check the server but we never actually join the server when we want to play. We assume we're the only ones game for a match and then we move on. That being said....at some point, the launcher will be updated to include a lobby of sorts that I hope will alleviate this problem. Until then though, we just gotta get in there and wait for a bit. As many people as i hear about just checking the server on a daily basis but never playing because the ingame count is low or at zero, there is no way that we're all checking at different times. There must be overlap somewhere. Thats when the good matches will happen. Take the plunge my friends. Remember: If nobody is ingame, its because you aren't ingame! Also, I'll probably join in about 8 hours when i get off work
  19. Beeeeee app bap badap pow! Bap app badap pow! (just watch the video, you'll figure it out) Video
  20. There may or may not be talk of an event in the not-too-distant future. Keep your ears open
