OK now who is going to clean up all those Sheep droppings? Oh now look everyone is stepping in it and tracking it all over the place. Wow, Jodie and sig are going to have a heck of a time cleaning all that up. :D :p :D

We're waiting to see your counter dump. Hopefully the boarding was fun for all! I know you guys were pissed when [H] passed and didn't say boo. So I wanted to make it interesting.:cool:

Thanks 1fast6! Although I suspect that the fight for 4th ain't over yet. I'll wait to see the cannon fire at the next few updates! :p

But for now, I think we'll just throw ourselves a REALLY big party and IF ya'll manage to make us retake 4th for a second time well then we'll just have to have another party! :D

HEY!!! Where are the barrels of rum from the pirate ship? :(
And what about those pirate women Q and SK, shouldn't they be overhere too. What kinda party are we thrown' here. :rolleyes:

We need to ranshack that ship!

1fast6

6th September 2001, 00:35

nah, its cool... we enjoyed it...

it did us good after smokin everybody the past few years in these DC projects... first with SETI, then folding, and now genome (a few others along the way, can't remember 'em all)... we were never passed by anyone that we didn't later pass back until [H] and now you guys (just keep that in mind!)...

there was some bad air between us and [H] when they passed us, so it was all piss and venom... not much fun... except relic... he was cool about it...

you guys are allright... come back and visit anytime... and, um... watch yer back... just cuz yer out in front, doesnt mean we ain't got a bead on ya...

Hey, you guys too! The more cross-posting the more fun it is - even when we're not racing!

Don't forget the DES and RC64 projects in there too, as well as the prime number DC project!!! You guys kick butt over there, too!

Messing around, prehaps. But you know, Jodie messing around is looking to see how good the stopping power really is on some new hot loaded teflon .50 DE round... :p :p :D

Hey I'm the farmer....those are sheep pellets you know.

Just tilt the ship and they will roll away..Let's see..a little pitch..roll..pitch back..roll again..there they are in the transporter room to beam back down on the Pirates ( or should we beam them to Italy???)

You're not really a farmer -- rancher, maybe. If you were a REAL farmer you'd be asking for the pellets for your crops.

Come on Pirates. Run with us for a while. Our boarding party has been gone only a couple of hours. Surely we're not going to leave you in our wake so soon.

6th September 2001, 03:42

Thing I hate most about these dumps is that it screws up the stats... Dyyr's stats seem to believe that if I did a 2k dump it means I'll do 2k every day from now on, rather than an average over time. Sigh. Now I won't be able to tell for a week when I'm going to hit single digits...:( :p

Congrats on getting to position 4 and capturing OCN's rubber duckie.

1fast6 was incorrect when he says there was some bad blood between [H] and OCN when we went past them. There was bad blood between our teams because stupid ass Wooga was telling Stanford that one of our team members was cheating. Everyone in the world could see it was a stats glitch. By the time we passed them we were just bored with them ;)

medic, you're half right in that other post - though we don't jump from project to project .. as we only do two offically. Unless you mean we jump back and forth between the two Stanford ones

:D

Huh?! (Rubs eyes.) Nice dump guys. Fall asleep for a minute and miss all the fun, I guess. If a stray sheep hadn't wandered in and started nibbling on my underwear (now where did it learn to do that?) I would have missed all the festivities.

Those guys went down quietly, with honor, flag still flying. Hats off to the pirates. May you enjoy 5th place as much as we did.

Hey, that sheep is kinda cute! Come here, c'mon, baaaah....

Hats off and a long toast to the pirates. They certainly know how to make this project fun.
Respect guys :)

'course we're all waiting to see what a13 is gonna let go, why havn't you dumped yet? We kind of figured you were waiting for us to pass, then you were gonna let go with a big dump to re-take 4th - c'mon, dont dissapoint us - watcha got? :D

They are Pirates. Lesson #1, never trust a Pirate. Maybe the sheep have been sabotaged.... X-Calibur, we need to get these sheep into X-Ray quick smart! Check for explosives! http://members.dingoblue.net.au/~dnar/images/icons/biggrinshoot.gif

Checking the team stats, they have more stashed away, I just know it....

But we'll Have 4 place and we'll don't give it back without a good battle if the need is there to do so

We Rock WE Rock We Rock

Time is on our side. If they don't dump pretty soon, we'll be out of range. And the longer they wait, the less time they take the four-spot back for. Actually, we can figure it out - what was our over-take date a month ago? It should be within plus-or-minus a day of that... Things don't change THAT much! The worst-case was the 20% we added to our lead over them with my farm. If they didn't counter that, then there's a day of difference. Either way, it should be *that* close to the estimate a month or two ago...

Well, the sniper rifle is a .50, that's pretty big. The round and casing is as long as my hand and fingers.

But let me assure you, when you're looking at a 9mm Sig from the wrong end, it's PLENTY big enough!! ;) :D
