Cool, I'll hold off then.

Is it necessary to have Queen's Gambit to participate? I don't have it yet, and as I prefer a boxed copy, it might be a bit difficult to get it by Tuesday. Haven't played ofp online in a long time, and just got arma working, so if I'll have to buy for the download to play with you guys this tuesday, I will. Is the PW updated? I joined in on a few games in the summer of 2005, so that's quite a while ago...

Wow, this couldn't be better! I come home for the holidays, haven't tried ArmA since I have a mac where I study, and finally it's working! The last time I tried playing ArmA in the summer, it didn't work at all. I have the famous Vista + 8800 combo. I don't know if it's this patch, or some other patches, but it works! Oh, and I don't know where my CD is, so that I no longer need it is even better

I have a problem with my installation. Arma has a tendency to crash when it has to hit the HD to load some scenery (that's what I think it does). It's very annoying, and if I play the basic helicopter course training, it's reproducible. I only managed to complete that when I put every setting on the lowest. I have an e6600 processor, nvidia 8800 gts 320MB. 2GB RAM and Vista Home Premium 32bit. Running the game at 1600x1200 res. I've tried using the maxmem switch at 768 MB to no avail. What does that switch actually do? Anyone got any thoughts about what I should do?

What's the problem with using on of the thousands of open trackers already running on the web? There's not much point having every addon on a tracker, as it's much work and it doesn't require as much bandwidth as the official patches. All that's needed is for someone to make the .torrent file in their favorite torrent program, using whatever tracker they want to, and post the link here in the forum. If you are worried that the tracker also tracks illegal content, just host the .torrent file on some free webspace. Then if enough people jump on to seed, and everyone shares, it will come down in less time than it would from a server. Or even better, those that normally host http mirrors choose to seed the torrent on their servers instead. That's my experience at least. When the first rush is over, just change to regular http mirrors again. edit: Here's two legal trackers that could be used: http://www.gameupdates.org/ http://game-files.net/

Thanks. I'll definitly make those changes in a future update If you are going to put in those battalion insignias, remember that CSSBN also have a contingent in Afghanistan.

Are you planning to use SLI? Afaik there is no support for that on the Xeons yet. So, if you need that, stick with Opterons. Btw, check out the God Box from the Ars system guide. They build a dual processor Opteron, so you can get a lot of advice there.

Didn't also Armstrong refuse to take a DNA test that could have proven his innocence?

The iPod plays mp3s just fine, it's a mp3-player after all. I've got the 3g 20 GB model, it works just fine, but I don't use it a lot at the moment. May replace it with a nano in the future.

No, not yet. The PC is occupied by my sister atm, and I don't really have so much time to try it out before the weekend.

Nice specs, beats the crap out of the PC I have access to, but fortunately it's just good enough to play the demo edit: If I'm reading this correctly, it'll be a new campaign, not the original

I loved Settlers 2! Do you still have to set up the roads in this one, don't think I have access to a powerful enough PC to try it out edit: Watched the trailer, and yes you have to Is it the same missions as the original? I hope so, as I never completed it

OK, I've requested membership. My user there is Eivind. Betting on the Czech to win...

The first one looks like it's from Heimevernet, the Norwegian voluntary force which can be called in when it's needed, like if the Swedes try to invade us

I’ll try and be there tonight, but I won’t come after ten as the football league starts today.

What are they doing that is against the Quran? The problem with the Quran is that there are so many contradictory statements. So basically everyone from peace-loving hippies to terrorists will try to hide behind it. Can you give an example, please? In particular, one that relates to the issue at hand? Nope, can't give you an example from the Quran regarding this, as I believe the part referring to no pictures of Muhammed is in the Hadith. But a quick search on google turned up this. Again, an example would help to understand what you are referring to. Check out this quote. I'm sure there are similar ones for the Quran, and this is what really makes the problem. Peace-loving hippies will claim peace is the message, and the terrorists war against the infidels. It would have been so much easier if people could just abandon religion and start using common sense.

What are they doing that is against the Quran? The problem with the Quran is that there are so many contradictory statements. So basically everyone from peace-loving hippies to terrorists will try to hide behind it. And the Bible is not really any better. I don't see the problem with the cartoons, as they're caricatures, and are not meant to be taken literally, as it seems a lot of muslims and Europeans think. Considering they were printed in September, I find it a bit silly to make a fuss about it now. Of course they were obviously offending to a lot of muslims, but they should understand that it was not the intent, and they can't really do anything about it. We have free press here in Europe, so they just have to respect that. That being said, religious people should be the last group to complain of lack of respect, as their “holy†books contain a lot of stuff that offends various groups, like homosexuals and women. Really, you've got to clean up your own mess before you start complaining about other things.

Judging by what I've read in the papers the last few days, Finland is no longer included in "Norden", there were going to be an united Nordic response to the embassy burnings, from Denmark, Sweden and Norway..

Are you serious? Â Burning a nations flag is an act of war against that country from a political perspective. I remember a few months ago when a Norwegian comedian (Otto Jespersen) burned the American flag on tv as part of one of his comedic acts. It did'nt take many minutes before the US embassy was in contact with the tv-station and it was all over the news everywhere. Burning a nations flag is wrong nomatter if you paid for your flag or not. When I see the Muslims stepping on and burning the Dannish and Norwegian flag I see them as the enemy to Denmark and my country. Hehe, that's a very Norwegian point of view. You guys are so in love with your flag that it is bordering on the pathological. Don't label all us Norwegians I'm in favor of letting people burn whatever they want, as long as they own it or have permission of the owner. When I heard they were burning Norwegian flags, I couldn't care less. But when they moved on to embassies, I got pissed off. I hope things start to calm down now, as it's just a silly controversy. The images of Muhammed was caricatures, so it's not like they were saying Muhammed was a terrorist by depicting him with a bomb in the turban. But I'm mightily pissed at Magazinet, the Norwegian Magazine that printed the caricatures in Norway, since they were in favour of thougher blashphemy laws in Norway. And now they're trying to say they support freedom of speech

Good engineering, innovative features and let's not forget the OS I know you can run it on regular PCs too with some hacking, but that's not the point. I've got an iBook and I'm very satisfied with it. The software just works, I never shut it down unless I'm upgrading the OS, so with 1,5 GB of memory applications start fast. The only thing I'm missing is the ability to fastly navigate in dialog boxes with the keyboard. That's about the only thing Windows is good at, excluding gaming. It'll be interesting to see if gaming on the mac will evolve, now as they've switched to Intel CPUs. I know there's some Linux apps that let you play games for Windows. My dream is that I someday can play ArmA on a mac.

I've reserved the PC for tonight, so I'll join you guys for some great coop

Yep the same except that you switch the letters so the first letter is last and the last is first etc, and then you read it in the mirror. Gotcha

I'll join you tonight Same PW as we used in June-August?

A bit late, but here it is nevertheless
