I only d/led the game on saturday night and applied for the Cadet program last night /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Got a bugger-load to learn, slowly getting through it thought /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Nice to read up on a game I enjoy when I've got a break from studying /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Sanch, you should never give up personal information over the internet. It's not wise behaviour.

Hey Sanch, you were playing pretty well in-game last night, I didn't think you were really a newbie.

In response to your question: When I'm commanding, if you get the sort of order that you can hit insert to accept from me, you can very probably ignore it- these tend to be informational things that I'm transmitting to the entire team just so that anybody who needs it has it. (For instance, I'll tell the whole team to go to waypoint- this is where a con just built. Or go to Hexxxx- this is where the easy-to-rush miner that my ints can't see is mining).

On the other hand, when I'm typing in all caps with a lot of cusswords, something like "EVERY SINGLE GODDAMNED ONE OF YOU ON THIS BOMB RUN", that is my indication that indeed, you should quit your probing and get on the bomb run.

its ok to give out sex on the internet.

it only narrows it down to about half the population of earth.

Jonan · Post by **Jonan** » Mon Feb 05, 2007 5:24 pm

Actually a fair amount less than half.

ok, now I'm confused. Does Jonan suggest there aren't enough girls to go around or not enough guys? perhaps he refers to the percentage of the population that is classifed neither *looks at Whorez and Padmeeples* as skewing the ratio? Perhaps he suffests that out of 6 billion a few million capita difference is significant?

*Places bet on Shemales upsetting the balance* *looks at apo*

...don't shemales count equally on both sides of the equation such that the percentage of hes to shes remains unchanged? /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

I'll be putting me foot where me mouth is.

The're are regional differences to up to 10% more male's being born, for example, vaguely and offhandedly: somewhere down Southern Europe, then again the ex-soviet region has areas where male life-time expectancy is nearly 15 years less than female. Official numbers usually put the male population a few percent higher than the female, but most of the world don't put much effort into counting it's women. Estimates for female population (that i've seen) range from about -3% to about +5%. My money is on the high values, which is quite a considerable difference.

Granted, that difference is dried up and without reproductive value, but still...
