Canvas Wings 1 Posted September 18, 2009 Hilarious Tried it again just for the halibut and scored 0.1669 The secret? I had a digital mouse-finger twitch which, if there was any justice in the world, would have earned me the 3-second penalty. However, just at that moment, an addle-brained ewe made a dash for freedom and took a dart in the dithers before her hindquarters even cleared the rest of the flock. Boosted my score big time. It just goes to show what MVR, Billy Barker, Collishaw and many of the other Top Guns proved. You didn't necessarily have to be good to be lucky, but your sure as hell had to be lucky to be good.

Flyby PC 23 Posted September 18, 2009 I know this is just a bit of fun, but in two gos, I got 4 x 0.156, 3 x 0.219, and 2 x 0.282. I make that 9 duplicate times in 10. Don't know whether this is a speed test, or multiple choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted September 18, 2009 It took me four days to even find this thread, so my odds of placing anywhere on the board at all are probably nil. Good thing I gravitate more towards the B/R planes. Cheers! Lou Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schnitzel von Krumm 0 Posted September 21, 2009 I'm mostly Bobcat with occasional gusts into Rabbit territory. Anybody else have the urge to come back in a plane and strafe those stupid sheep? There are no timing numbers, but I made a similar game for my dog's website a few years back when I was learning Javascipt. It's the Herd-a-Cow if anybody's interested.

Bullethead 12 Posted September 22, 2009 Anybody else have the urge to come back in a plane and strafe those stupid sheep? Nope. Arty's quicker. By the time my 1/2 my brain had shot the 2nd dart, the other 1/2 had called in a regimental Time on Target, battery 6, 50% VT, 50% Willy Pete. We'll be eating mutton chilli tonight .

Olham 164 Posted September 22, 2009 Oh yes, mutton stew with carrots and star anise! Sometimes, the artillery comes in very handy - and so effective! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olham 164 Posted September 22, 2009 It needs trainig like the most things. Today I tried again, and the third attempt made a Rockting Rabbit of the Bobbing Bobcat. Feels like another tin medal in a war. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullethead 12 Posted September 23, 2009 Sometimes, the artillery comes in very handy - and so effective! I've done many things in life that I don't do anymore, but the 1 thing I miss most is not being able to wave my magic radio wand and force the cartographers to adjust the contour lines on that part of the map. I had the Wrath of the Dark Gods at my fingertips. Damn, that was cool . I'll have a bit without so much wool in it, please. That's why I orderd 50% Willy Pete, to burn off all the hair. I don't know about being a Meth Addict, but during the 80's, my late 30's, I did a Lot of Amphetamines, and was NYC Ping Pong Champion for 3 years running. Now I favor Adult beverages from Tennasee mostly, my ping-pong game Stinks . . . If you hunt doves (season's now in progress ), you're pretty good if you can get your bag limit (10 birds) with 1 box of shells (25 rounds), especially if you shoot a 20-gauge. One time I went dove-hunting after eating 12 Vivarin, 6 on the way there driving from midnight to 0900, and the rest to stay awake until the next sundown. The doves looked to be moving about 5 knots instead of their usual 60, and I could see my shot patterns going out at them. Everything was in slow motion. I shot my limit on 12 20-gauge shells .

My Dad though, (an incredible wing shot) would ALWAYS bag his limit, and almost never waste a shell, while me and my brother would just try to keep up with his score. Once, when he was reloading, a covey jumped from the brush, and he got one with a .22 pistol. No joke. ZZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schnitzel von Krumm 0 Posted September 23, 2009 i think i'm rather good in this game Lol, yeah, that's a bit of a flaw in my "coding". You can click a cow twice if you're fast enough. I didn't realize the flaw was there because, well, I'm not fast enough to click a cow twice. Later when people started emailing to let me know about the problem, I tried to think of a way to fix it, but then realized, looking at how I did things, that I was lucky to have figured out how to make it work at all. When you're stymied by Javascript, you fairly quickly come to the realization that programming is not in your future. So, I decided to have a nap instead. Read "What Would Harry Do?" for an elaboration of this policy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
