Gawd-damn dalem, that was the worst Peng Challenge Thread opening post I have ever experienced in any of the threads I have read.
Do you fall over whenever you try to sit in a chair? 'Cause that was the most half-assed attempt I've ever seen. It's so bad, it almost makes me want the Just-a-carrot back to do one of his opening posts...
Sheesh.

</font>Originally posted by Sailor Malan:As a SSN to the Peng (if not the whole board), can someone explain a few strange terms I don't understand please:
Queen
female
Dame
As a lifelong grog, I have never encountered the concepts before.
- Queen <- Seanachai in drag on Friday nights</font>
- female <- those people with pleasing bumps and curves like YK2, Persephone, and Kitty. Note that this IS NOT in any way, shape or form related to list item #1</font>
- Dame <- a respectful term of address for those people with pleasing bumps and curves like YK2, Persephone, and Kitty</font>

Not a fight mind you, but I have this nice necklace to offer you... complete with a small Swiss bell.Originally posted by Kitty:*Looking for a fight or at least some human contact, if that can be found here* Hello? Anyone home?

Just to let me know when you're coming around...

Okay Dali-boy, the setup is on its way. The only thing you can count on is that the troops are of medium quality, fit, and full of ammo... otherwise, well, it's a crap shoot. Forces, weather, terrain, location, your mother's reputation, it's all up for grabs...Originally posted by SirReal:Send me a setup, whiskersnout. I want to be entertained, and you're it.

Say what you will about the Air Farce, Squids, Octopii, or other spineless lifeforms you find here, but there's no cause for insulting the Cub Scouts like that!!!Originally posted by Aces_and_8's:... Then, you and your AirFarce buddies can trade excuses as to why you decided to join a service just one step removed from the cubscouts,

The ideal setup is that I send you to Macey's place in Odds-stralia dressed in a full sheep costume.Originally posted by SirReal:Send me a setup, whiskersnout. I want to be entertained, and you're it.

But since that would be far too expensive, a CMBB setup it is... Let's see, early Rushin' (to their Doom) infantry for you, and some fun 'splody things for me should just about do it...

The question of the moment is which four posters???Originally posted by YK2:... can you imagine.. <big>ME</BIG>.. Queen of the MBT?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm in a Four Poster Bed and.. and.......

The frightening part is, you were so overcome with despair when you learned such pictures were not (thank the heavens) forthcoming that it took you nearly two days to respond.Originally posted by MrSpkr:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Mouse:

Now that's a scary thought... Seanachai running around calypso dancing in the 'Pool...Originally posted by YK2:Apocalypso!!!
Or the small gnome in his tight black Flamenco Dancer suit, all shiny with the sequins on his round little belly shining in the lights reflected off the Disco ball...
Makes me want to hurl... and I'm not talking about some strange Scottish game either...

Pseudo-God, you must be crazy! Did you get hit on the head by a Coca-Cola bottle or sumfink??? First you develop these delusions of godhood, and now you want a bunch of vestigial virgins!?!Originally posted by Seanachai:R Leete, go forth and round up a pack of Vestigial Virgins!
Seanachai, O Flatulent One from Minneapolis, you might like your virgins vestigial, degenerate, or not fully developed, but that is to be expected from you I guess.
I prefer mine with a touch more divinity about them. An' if she isn't a virgin anymore, I'll just pretend that she is. After all, what measure is a god without compassion?

Personally I hope they don't use the whole face, portraits, at least unless they can provide varying portraits for each unit type.Originally posted by kgsan:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Quenaelin:
I would like to have those whole face portraits, they add lots of personality to soldiers. Maybe I just have to mod those portraits.
In CMBO each type of unit (e.g. german pioneers squad, british paratrooper squad, U.S. infantry squad, SS platoon HQ etc.)had its own portrait, but every unit of that particular type shared the same picture. With each US infantry squad showing the same face gazing back at you it felt a bit like a war of the clones to me and didn't really help with the immersion factor. </font>

*opens rulebook to third page of notes, scribbles: *Originally posted by Berlichtingen:Mace, you bastard!
Been playing Temple of Elemental Evil. Thought I'd give it a go with an evil party. Managed to get the reputation of Butcher of Hommlet (without trying I might add). Now what this means, is that all the happy townfolk attack my party on sight. Ok, I'm up for a little mayhem. First bastard I run into... a herder. He and his two dogs were no match, but when then I got swarmed by his herd of killer SHEEP! It is all Mace's fault
Note to self: Do not antagonize sheep.

I guess he wore out his welcome among the Salt Lake City psychiatric community with his Woody Allen-esque ramblings, no matter how much he was willing to pay...

Damnation, I thought I was free of all this... I never should have run up the bow line of that scow in the harbor... but they were shipping out and those cats were chasing... grumble... grumble...
So Hoe Squaw needs recommendations for a new computer?
Well, generally I like to recommend hardware that performs the anticipated tasks well, but is not at the price point where you are still paying for the 'newness' factor, while still attempting to hold to the line that "Any machine you have to wait for is, by definition, too slow."
For most, I would recommend a P4 2.4GHz or 2.6GHz processor with the 800 MHz frontside bus and hyperthreading, although if you only run single applications at a time, you should tweak the hyperthreading off. Memory should be 1 GB. Less is soooo passe... Video cards are tough, as I am an nVidia fan (GeForce 4 Ti 5700 was my last purchase). The exact model can be debated, but look for the fastest GPU MHz, 'cause like the CPU, faster is better. Likewise, 128 MB RAM on the video card and DirectX 9 support are de rigeur.
So in your case, Hoe Squaw, I think an abacus strikes the right balance. Very affordable, and it won't process at a speed that overtaxes your neurons.
