I like IRN (even if it is expensive), 'cause (I think) it gives me an effective Research Lab level of 42 (12+10+10+10)! I think.

Oh yes, quite a few permanent ones, plus they (legally) have to be signposted. I think they also had to be bright yellow, but I don't think that's the case anymore (too many of them were getting burnt out). Yup, add in the fact that they're bright yellow, signposted & have lots of white lines on the road just after them & it's a wonder they catch anyone.

No, they'll be charged to your account & if you can't/don't pay by the end of the month, we'll remove sufficient organs to cover the shortfall. Have a nice day, please come again.

It doesn't run through a residential area though, which is the odd thing. It's a nice straight road (broken only by a few big roundabouts) on a gentle hill. They must have set the speed limit to limit accidents. That & a low speed limit pisses people off so they get caught on the speed cameras -> more revenue for the police.

Yes, mines are good.

I picked up my "new" (new to me) car today. My first one (although I've had a license for ~2 years, I've always got the train to work, but now we've moved, the train takes ~1-1.5hrs & costs ~£180 a month, so the car will be cheaper & quicker), it's a dark red '96 Vauxhall Astra with ~23k miles on the clock (exceptionally low, but the previous owner was an old person, & the mileage isn't dodgy 'cause it drives like it's not done much mileage). Drove it home on my own (first time I've actually driven by myself) which was quite nice, it's just a pity the A217 has a 40 limit. And yay for self-propelled petrol lawnmowers! :wink_smile[1]:

It's not a bug, it's an exploit of how Riding is "done" in the code. Ya see, the player's riding level is only checked when you get on a horse, so as long as it's sufficient then then you don't need to actually put many points into Riding (as long as you're happy carrying round extra equipment that will boost your Riding level high enough to get on the horse). When trying to do this, you need to attack something, then while the arrow is still in the air, move your cursor elsewhere. If you move the cursor after the first arrow hits the target it won't work ('though you can try again).

Personally I'm up for providing Phalanx info (although I've only got a level 1 in 2:497 atm) & trading. I'll ask the rest of DaGang.

Yes, congratulations everyone. :hug[1]:

[Mr Burns] Excellent! [/Mr burns] This is probably a stupid question, but, waht do you mean "how does one go about starting to play it?"?

And middle game...

Perhaps we'd get more if you put some trousers on Gogo? Modest too...

I have a nack of finding this kind of thread. It's a psychic power or something. Like always noticing when my wife spills something when eating. So, tell me again why you're not married Gogo?

Ooooooooooooooh, bannage! Gin, do you need any help raiding him?

Build lots of ABMs & then move all your res elsewhere? Or use it?

Have to? No. May wish to? Probably. I'll be waiting till the price drops (quite) a bit.

All I'm doing is raiding (mostly) inactives & then ploughing those res into more mines. I've slackened off the research for a bit as it's getting kinda expensive & mines give a more immediate return. I think my rank is fairly constant because the vast majority of my res has been spent on things that can't be taken away (buildings & research), so yeah, if I had my fleet crashed I'd loose lots of points, but not as many as (I think) most other players around my rank.

Or put some trousers on? At the very least some pants.

Changing the Alliance name/tag is one of the Admin options.

Thanks Aurora. I'm ranked 99! :yikes:

NP Gogo. Needless to say, the cats know that Something Bad is happening.

Just thought I'd let you guys & gals know that I'm moving house on the 31st of March (this Friday)& so will be (mostly) offline from Wednesday till whenever we get broadband. I'll still be checking my email & PMs when I'm at work, but I doubt I'll have time for much else.

Yeah, a very nice hit...
