LMAO:::: Pic speaks volumes:

I use the PRNT SCRN key....the key to the right of the F12 on my Keyboard...well...that the POWER KEY...and it shuts your system down <C> Fates

Hey Dagger...remember a thread like this started over at LOMAC a while back? EB shows it as 3/30/2004 <C> Fates

Found this great write up on flying lessons MJ...your gonna need it if you wanna mess with the big boys! http://www.planetbattlefield.com/bf1942/st...per/index.shtml <C> Fates

Encore to publish Fair Strike in North America and South Africa in Q1 2004!

Ok.....sorry MJ but Seattle lost....maybe due to that puke grey/blue color they choose. It was a hard fought battle, but they just couldn't topple the experience of a team with names like Fahrve and Green. Carolina beated Dallas, not a suprise, but Carolina isn't exactly a strong contender. Tennesee edged out Baltimore...didnt' think they'd do it...but with McNair injured, can they go all they way? And finally, the Colt's simply DOMINATED the Broncos. They are the only team, so far, that has not had even a remotly close game with a wildcard. What's you preditions for the coming weeks?

GO COLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Battlecom is not nearly as good as TS or Ventrillo.... I vote Teamspeak. I haven't had 1 problem at all...and we have several dialup users on TeamODB that use it with great success. Just make sure all the CODECs are available for them..and you won't have a problem at all <C> Fates

Great Site....LMAO...there's many more... http://bf1942posters.mandrake.dk/index.php?cat=2

Perfect Idea. Call the whole thing a ROUTE. Thus is you a plane, tank, ground troops, etc...you follow the waypoints of the route, with Altitude depending on your componets ability to acheive it, thus a tank can't start out at waypoint 1 @ 20,000 Feet. (of course an over-ride feature would be nice....hehe....tank drops...smashes building...hehe) F-15, F-18 and USAF had great mission editors, and they had ICON that you could click and drag...blue ones and red ones depending on side....couldn't get that messed up, and didn't have to deal with LOMAC's unpleasant way of doing it either. :D Fates

Go Carolina!!!! These guys have been a horn in the Rams butt all day...can they overcome the penalty box and finish this game witha win? I'm hoping so!! and... Go Titans! New England just needs to lose IMHO....go road team! <C> Fates

Geezzzz....do the Rams or Carolina know how to play football? What a bunch flag throwin refs....!!! AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! WILL THIS GAME EVER END???? <C> Fates
