when "you have a word doc with the things from all the previous versions of this thread ready to copy / paste for the next time it comes around" but can't be bothered actually copy / pasting it into the new thread.

While rounding up the kids into the minivan you think/say/QC, "I need turret gunners, NOW!"

If you fumble for the cloak button when you see a speed trap on the interstate. /ninja.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ninja:" border="0" alt="ninja.gif" />

If you've been guilty of starting the Nth version of this thread. /doh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doh:" border="0" alt="doh.gif" />

If you participate in it again anyway. /blush.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

If your three year old daughter has ever said, "Make me a sammich, newbie!" /glare.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":glare:" border="0" alt="glare.gif" />

(OK, so I taught her that one...)

you slow down before entering a door for fear of being caltropped

Fart as you enter a door to ward off a pursuant. You can always claim the smell was already there.

- When some one farts, you ask "Who droped prox?"

- You've gotten your roomates to say it as well, and they dont play (network issues, still trying to get the Dplay to work with all the ports/waiting for the Dplay8)

Or the converse: You've drank too much sobe when it leaks out on your new faction in the works.

Just read that, and happens too often to me. Just to show how much this game sticks. After not playing for months, I bought a sobe the other day, looked at the cap. (since they're all new labels but caps are the same) and thought to myself I've seen this before. Then it poped in my head the dreghlar empire logo, and then thought of Allegiance. Well...now I'm back /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

When you start speaking in a southern accent because of the voice comm.

When you start saying you were going 120 Miles Per Second rather than 120 Miles Per Hour

Your up at 3am trying to figure out new "You've played this too much when..."

dude, mps is meters per second

in alleg speed is meters per second

the code proves it

Code: Select all

case SpeedTrainingOverlay:
            {
                pointDelta = Point (-1.0f, -1.0f);
                pointA = pointCenter + Point (-25.0f, -105.5f);
                pointB = pointA + (pointDelta * 100.0f);
                description = "SPEED (meters per second)";
                break;
            }

when you quote code to prove a point

Wow...Now you've just proved that your obessed with Alleg dude lol. Unless your from a place that uses meters instead of miles, like we do in america, and thats what I assumed since I thought the game was made by american developers. Anyways, you proved your point haha.

You do realize that we crashed a multibillion dollar probe on Mars a few years back because we're too damned stubborn to convert to MKS, right?
