DT is correct.

Bi# is the greatest thing since the invention of the game of Descent. And 16-Man Indika absolutely rocks. That's the most fun I have ever had online.

I'll be getting out my D3 Tank just for a session in BI3 very soon.

If PXO Comes back up I promise I will dust off my trusty Logitech 3D Pro and give everyone a good chance to slaughter me ad nauseam.

I really miss playing D3, a Lot. A LOT do you hear me?

Mobius

Good News Everyone! Today you'll be reading my post in the voice of Professor Farnsworth! As I see PlanetDescent.net has died, and taken my ancient \"D3 Help\" web site with it, I will be hosting it from my domain at http://www.4sure.co.nz in the very near future. Every few months I get on...

Well, I have stopped gaming essentially, but would still be interested in 2 6DOF game... I see some sort of ports of D1 and D2 are now available. I suppose I should try to catch up on what's been going on here. Anyway, we've moved into our new home. You can see some shots of the construction process...

It's been a long time since I posted here. Anyway, moved into the new house and I'm selling lots of old stuff, including 2 3D Pros - the old game-port model. One is brand spanking new, used maybe for 10 minutes total. The other is in good condition, but I believe the down-hat may be intermittent. Bu...

Most have predicted that WW3 will be the end all of all wars. If any of the middle eastern countries (including terrorists) have nuclear capabilities, it will be brutal. It will end with Israel glassing everything around them. Merl, it was Einstein who said "I do not know what weapons will be ...

LOL Roid - that's my insane-fucked up space station, made in \"Short Hike\"! Ahhh - the memories!

Thanks Ace - that's my home town in the picture, taken from STS118 - the first launch after Columbia I believe. You can see me tuning my upload speed to get the torrent really humping along. My upload is pretty lame: only 256Kb/s (w/ 8Mb/s down: handshake is 7.95Mb/s!) so with over 200 TCP streams, ...

Holy Torrents Batman!

Downloading Fifth Gear Episodes. 4 at a time.

Just after I took this screengrab, it peaked out at 945 KB/s.

I have torrented every single top gear episode ever, and it's really hard to pick a favourite. Most of them are funny as hell.

206 miles takes a whole day?

Jebus, I reckon I can do that in under 2 hours in the 928, on the open road.

I am here! Been busy trying to build a house. We signed yesterday. *Big Gulp*. $710,000 all up. http://www.4sure.co.nz/nzonia/modelpic-west-quarter.jpg Should be in the house in early May. Still keen to play a new Descent-like game. Doesn't look like it's going to happen before my eyes fail, and I g...

Well, spank me senseless and call me charlie: THERE'S A CD WEB SITE!!111!|||!11

The chances of ever playing this game just went from \"as likely as being struck by lighning\" to \"as likely as being killed by bee stings\".

Great work.

Look, you only need Occam's Razor here people. Which is more likely: aliens formation flying for the pleaure of piss-pot town residents, or some earthly explanation? I'll take \"other earthly explanation\" any time, thanks. Try reading Michael Schermer's brilliant book \"Why people be...

There are many levels of "belief" based on the degree of certainty. I used the word "knew" (know) because of my high degree of confidence that God does not exist, and I get that confidence by what I see in the world every single day. :) Assignment for you Bee: Look up the word &...

If you run a CRT, make sure the refresh rate is better than 75Hz. Anything 85 and above is good.

On a serious, yet slightly funny note: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070625/ap_on_go_su_co/scotus_bong_hits_4 The \"Bong Hits 4 Jesus\" supreme court decision is a kick in the teeth for your kid's freedoms. See, in NZ it never would have even been an issue, because no policeman would EVER t...

I like my Monster Card and it still works so why retire it? Because it is old, useless, sucks power (like $100 a year probably) and does nothing for you that a newer card and a glide wrapper won;t do 100 times better and faster. Want to retain your old Glide card? Do what I did, mount it in a deep ...

I agree with DCrazy, the United States needs one new piece of legislation, which allows for the creation for the PSA: Parent Slapping Administration. It would solve alot of problems like these :P A good friend of mine, Dougal's favourite saying is; "Chris, the world would be a much better plac...

Heh - I'll bite. But thread title is inaccurate: you can't lose a right you never had in the first place.

5. It's too bad D3 failed to include a true Peer to Peer networking option. Without it, 1v1 play died out, and with it, the heart of the old community, leaving behind only a shell of what once was. With all due respect to Sirian - that's just not true. There IS a great Peer-to-Peer protocol in Desc...

It blows. Don't bother. It's like a Firefox version 0.6 How Apple can stand with hand on heart and say this is a V3.0 browser is beyond me. Handy for checking web sites in, but that's about it. Give them a solid year of PROPER development work on it, and it might be worth something, but for right no...

Let me be the first to say that holes in the ground != aliens. What the hell are you on man?

The movie is encouraging.

That's awesome!
I really like the automap on the second screen!

Has anyone tried this? Hell, I'd even buy a DS just to play the old game!

\"Houseboat\" with Sophia Loren and Cary Grant. You MUST see it. Damn it's a funny movie. Hollywood couldn't make that movie today, sadly. Or anything else decent for that matter.

This morning I went through the usually mundane list of emails that've arrived over the weekend.
