So for all these years I thought anything near a black hole got sucked in and nothing escaped. Quasars are a pretty interesting read. Most (if not all) are seen at the center of young galaxies. They're believed to be natural occurrences among active black holes. As matter is falling into the ...

It's currently 90F in Cincinnati (I live in Erlanger, KY. about 10 miles south of downtown). I think the high for today is suppose to be 92-94. The humidity is always the issue here. The \"feels like\" temperature is 100+.

Great work on the demos/videos, Tomato and James! They're all fun to watch.

Did anyone ever download the videos I posted? I'd enjoy seeing those again.

Deathbeam.. I am fairly Certain everyone knew what Dj meant, and Thorne was just razzing him. DJ's response was just further razzing. Besides, eveyone left out intellectual property as another def for ip

Sickone is correct. I originally meant intellectual property.

Internet Service Provider, Internet Provider, Internet Protocol... they're all the same.

Hey Lothar!

As odd and beautifully unique as my alias may be, no, that's not me.

DJ YOU slacker you don't play at all. GET ON KALI MAN D1 tonight :) I know it, bud. IIRC, it's been about 2 years since I've played. I plan on getting back into Descent within a month. Once I get a few things first - converter for the 3dpro, a different IP (this one is terrible for gaming), and ...

While I usually didn't play by the same rules as Warlord, I agree with them. The only exception I can think of is if a player requested a timeout. If you agreed to halt the game, then kill someone, knowing full well that they're afk and/or their attention is needed elsewhere, I would consider that ...

Nice little discussing here! Oh, and thanks for the compliment, Behe. You improved drastically in D1 since our first matches. Had I been around a bit longer, I think you would have bested me (D3.. well, that's a much different story). Here's my opinion on the subject: Fusion = GOAT? No, very close ...

Excellent list, Dog. Since I've played Warlord and Jeds a bunch in the past, IMO, they're more than worthy to be placed among the greats. As long as they wouldn't be too rusty, I think I'd hitch a ride with them the day aliens invade the Earth. :) Oh, and there's perks with being Warlord's wingman ...

I've used this config for many years:

W = Forward
S = Backward
A = Slide Left
D = Slide Right
Shift (left) = Afterburner
Spacebar = Flare
Q = Cycle primary
E = Cycle secondary
Everything else = 3dPro (I use the hat for sliding up and down, the twist for banking, etc.)

Still improving Behe (in d1)? Nice, bud. Yeah man, when we going to play again? That's good to hear, bud. I see that your brother is playing D1(2?) as well? The more the merrier! I've always taken time away from the D scene on occasion. I suppose to preserve that "itch" of wanting to play again. So ...

Here's some D1 demos from '05. It was between Morfod and I in Athena NH.

I'm sure I can upload some more if anyone's interested.

Behemoth - another thing that kind of intrigues me - has said level of competition among D1/2 players on Kali improved or declined in recent years? It isn't very easy for me to judge, considering I never played against any of them much back at the height of IDL and the like, but someone might have ...

I'm just glad I didn't get shutout.

Space, I've played against you a few times and never noticed anything out of the ordinary. The D3 community seems to be at the phase of where the D1/D2 community was a few years ago. There's a bunch of skilled players who absolutely hate getting beat, and will make any kind of excuse possible to ...

Sign me up, too.
