The Tank and active users

[Chris Wolfe]

Can we get a semi-accurate count of who is riding in the Tank? After reading Jodie's post about how she came to choose our fine team as her home, (BTW, WELCOME JODIE!) I'm thinking that it might be a good idea to have on the website some kind of an explanation of what the Tank is and how it affects our active users stat. I would imagine that when you take into account Tank riders, our active users is well above 60%. That could have an impact on a person or team's decision to join us.

Full time tank. All my machines on the tank.

[MechCD]

Yeah, all ya tankers need to keep your regular user tanks active, maybe a unit a week or something


FYI: I'm not in unimatrix_zero

I am my own tank :)

[siggy]

YES..... it's a little Sherman... and it's humming alright... LOL (I fell in love with it at first sight, some little mods and it was OURS...!)

As per your production I noticed the other post about feeling pathetic.... well pretty much as been said as numbers don't really matter, and beleive me you are a great asset to this team by all means... /serious mode off

I'm working to set up a little farm of low life good to be door stopper putters to chew on some short sequence gene to be pipped in the inactive accounts to get the life line a little boost, but since I'm fumbling with Linux like a blind man trying to make is way out of a stuco maze.... so will be a while till this get's on track as I will make those putters minimalist, even thinking of booting from the network or from a diskette....

If I could only lay hands on a 8 aa sequence FCS.....

Why thank you I am honored. However I would rather not hug the tank. Maybe I could just hug all the tank people?

<<<<<TANK PEOPLE HUG>>>>>

That suits me alright.... my alcove is the second one on the right, right next to dnar... did you know he snores like a Mustang engine running on a sugar-honey mix? I can't even ear the humming of the quattro-diesel GM engines in the Tank some nights....

Oh,and close the hatch when you come in, Wylie is unsually incomfortable when there's wind blowing throught the cabin.

Also don't mind the undies in the passageway... they belong to Stilgar.... he has that strange habit / ritual with undies.....

See ya.

Yeah, it's the tank alright. XCaliburs host (where the tank is) is bogged down or too slow or something. The page just can't upload the tank from his site. I think the problem is with X's server.

Me either mate - mines run out. But this isn't a team thing, just me and you know who. Thanks for the offer of backup, but I'd rather keep the team/s out of it.

No.... X's server has never given any trouble in the past..... LOL! :D

[Martyn]

dnar, it's you! look at the upload status of the page...

Ditch the tank from you sig untill it's sorted, it's bogging everthing down.

Every page on the forum with one of your posts (that's nearly all of em) is having this problem :)

[esizemore]

Getting in the tank. Keeping one computer on my account!

[wylie]

Welcome aboard.....just sent a dump tankwards in celebration....any excuse'll do :D :D
