    I think it's quite obvious Whiskey will be collecting penalties this week for too many players on the field...
    Whiskey 18 players
    Tango 11 players
    Foxtrot 10 players

    Some of those bars are off my screen. Total point scores look pretty close if you ask me.

    you must be on a dinky screen... dont you have a big monitor, I thought you had like a 24" widescreen.
    what screen res?

    I'm on 1280x1024 and the charts fit perfect.... 19" monitor... (not even a widescreen model)
    full screen capture...

    Mike > In the morning I am in da basement on smaller monitors...My main is big enuf. Also, if team Whiskey gets penalties for too many players, can we get the ref's from a few posts back to give the penalties. I think I may get spanked...

    Marvin > Spot on...

    Can't wait till another acme jato rocket arrives, perhaps wednesday ?

    Well, I will even take extra penalties from those tarts

    Pardon ?

    Did you saw a small conglomeration around whisky ?
    We tend to have the biggest amount of players because we're good !

    18 Whisky players is ok !
    try to imagine 18 juice drinkers or 18 failed pilots ... jeez

    I demand a penalty for the person that is trying to give us a penalty !
    No Whisky for him for the rest of his life ... just bleded ! ... yuck

    Penalty to our ref MikeB12

    Team Whiskey deciding on penalty details...

    I thought something was amiss...

    I could shrink the charts even further, but with as much data as we have in them it's gonna get hard to see that small.. and I think most everyone at XS has at least a 19" or bigger monitor... in fact mine is probably one of the smaller ones (19" standard non wide screen).... so what evre fts on mine easily fits on everyone elses 21,22 and 24" widescreen.. I still want to buy a 22" widescreen, but my funds haven't come full circle yet... so I'm still on my old lcd 19" standard from 2 yrs ago. my only monitor besides and old 15" crt, pretty sad.

    I play musical monitor connection to view my folders....
    they all sit backwards facing me..

    +10 Points for the Computing Power
    +5 Points for the nice not disturbing curtain
    -16 points for the enviroment + atmosphere ... That looks like a Lair of Geek where the main RAID boss is a lvl ?? Mike

    So that makes it -1 point so you owe us another thing ...
    You can discuss the details with my Lawyer Mr.Soda umm Yoda the Unforgiving

    bobs: So, where do you work, MikeB12?
    Mike: XS.
    bobs: In... yeah, what do you do there?
    Mike: I sit in a cubicle and I update F@H Charts all day long.
    bobs: What's that?
    Mike: Well see, they wrote all this F@H software, and, uh, to save space, they used 3 teams instead of 2. So, like, Whiskey, Foxtwat & Mango? Uh, so I go through these thousands of lines of code and, uh... it doesn't really matter. I uh, I don't like my job, and, uh, I don't think I'm gonna go anymore.
    bobs: You're just not gonna go?
    Mike: Yeah.
    bobs: Won't you get fired?
    Mike: I don't know, but I really don't like it, and, uh, I'm not gonna go.
    bobs: So you're gonna quit?
    Mike: Nuh-uh. Not really. Uh... I'm just gonna stop going.
    bobs: When did you decide all that?
    Mike: About an hour ago.

    dak listening (eves dropping) and thinking, geesh, Mike has copped an attitude lately. Perhaps those referee Tarts are wearing him down. I gotta an idea....

    dak: Mike; why don't you take today & tomorrow off and do some fishing...
    Mike: Thanks Bozz....wondering what's up with dak?

    Mike smiles & skips down to da basement, comes back up after 42 minutes wearing a smile, and skips out the door...
    dak: Hey Mike, just noticed your fly is down !!!!

    lol @ Kondik.. and DAK see you next week...

    those are thermal curtains in front of mini blinds; that window faces east so the morning sun heats that area up too much right next to my machines... but I open them up in the afternoon all the time this time of year... especially now that it's cooler... but even now I'm still seeing mid 70's in the afternoon. during the summer I have to leave those thermals closed all the time or it will get over 80F in that room and over 100F right outside that window.

    That's your living room Mike ?
    If yes then you're a happy man that I'm not near you ...

    I'd silently break in your house and clean in through the night ...

    It's HORRIBLE !

    yeah, the AC does everything it can... central AC cools the house and and it's not worth the powerbill to cool the rest of the house when only that pc room is a problem... that room just stays like 5F warmer than the rest of the house because of the pc's... I'd rather deal with it than pay the huge powerbill of setting the AC at 65F and cooling that room to 70F. so I set it to 70-72, and that room stays at 75-77F during the summer. even then the dam powerbill is like $500+ in the summer... I'm so glad the hot months are over..

    He I just got 2 pc's running and their in my kitchen ( open kitchen connected to the living room, had the 'office' upstairs but since I'm home all the time I moved everything down ) but even just those two cause the living room to be much more comfortable then the other rooms without having to turn on the heating. It's pretty cold already outside, when they rigs where upstairs I would be having the windows open and an extra sweater to help me push some more mhz out of everything. Not downstairs though, I like the living room to be atleast 20c

    btw ygpm

    yeah, it's just different geographic environments. I live in the hot and humid southern US... so my heat is only used a couple times a year, and even then I have to close the vents in that pc room when the heater comes on, otherwise it gets hot in there... the AC works probably 80% of the year, and rarely shuts off in the summer months (May-August).

    I wouldn't mind trading with you Mike, I kind of dislike the cold Might be my half south american heritage ( or going back more, african heritage ).. and god knows what else got in the mix. That reminds me, I got an appointment in an two hours, and I am saving bus money by going on my bike.. it's a 30m to three quarter hour bike ride atleast but it keeps me healthy abit, if I don't catch a cold lol.
