  1. I use a creative fatality headset, comfortable, good sound quality and has a long cord. Newegg has them for $50 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826158082
  2. I'm working on it, got a few more posts to go, until the servers come back online you better come play cod4 for your daily dose of pain lol
  3. Not a joke but a good analogy Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh would pay $7. The eighth would pay $12. The ninth would pay $18....The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. So, that's what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. 'Since you are all such good customers,' he said, 'I'm going to reduce the cost of your beer by $20’. Drinks for the ten now cost just $ 80. The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So, the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share?' They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay. And so The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings). The sixth would now pay $2 instead of $3 (33% savings). The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% savings). The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings). The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings). The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings). Each of the six was better off than before. And, the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. 'I only got a dollar out of the $20,' declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, 'but he got $10!' 'Yeah, that's right,' exclaimed the fifth man. 'I only saved a Dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I!' 'That's true!' shouted the seventh man. 'Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!' 'Wait a minute,' yelled the first four men in unison. 'We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!' The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill! And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.
  4. Everytime I line my sights on Astronomer I'm gonna see that image now!
  5. The second one but the headphones are too big!
  6. Thought I would throw in my 2 cents worth.... Although you can get outside the perimeter wall from one spawn side (spawn A), either through the gate or under the wall, there is no way to get out from the other (B spawn). If going outside the wall is not allowed then spawn A is very easily dominated from the roof tops and it becomes a turkey shoot. Players going outside the wall cannot be seen or shot if they stay close to the wall using it as a shield but in order to shoot they must leave that protection. Its also risky going outside the wall because if you get shot you're not likely to get thawed easily. In all the times I've played the map we were never permitted to go outside until recently and until that time the team getting spawn B first always won. So in my humble opinion going outside the wall helps to balance the map so the winner is more likley to be due to the calibre of players rather than the map.
  7. lol Chaos, i'll do my best to live up to your kind words! :2guns:
  8. yup and Belted arranged to have "the instructions on how to play freezetag" on the map intro splash screen so no more excuses lol
  9. Happy Birthday Sheepdog, how many doggy years?
  10. Perhaps not the computer at all but the monitor? Do you have another monitor you can use to test? Or connect it up to your tv.
  11. I've been using a 28" Hanns G for a couple of years, big difference over the smaller monitors. If you can squeeze the extra $ it's well worth it, maybe stick it out and see what black friday has to offer.
  12. Good luck to you, I quit cold turkey 13 years ago. The toughest one for me was the after dinner smoke.

    Intro

    I heard via the grapevine that you were the exception Astronomer lol
  14. I think the USADA is suffering from a serious case of "teeny weenie". They have no jurisdiction over the Tour de France, no physical evidence and won't say who their "witnesses" are. Yup he's guilty alright, not failing all those drug tests is apparently inconsequential. Until they can produce some solid evidence Armstrong must be considered innocent, like it or not.
  15. You can enter the /+activate after loading the game but before joining the server and it works fine.

    Intro

    I've been playing MW freeze tag quite a while now so I guess its time I put up an intro. I work in the computer industry and have been gaming since the beginning of time.. well at least since space invaders, frogger and donkey kong. My accent comes from Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) where I was born, have lived in South Africa as well and since '99 have made the USA my home. I usually say South Africa when asked where I'm from as people have a better idea of where that is. Skuzapo (skuz'apo), skuz for short, is my game name and roughly translated means 'excuse me for me being here' but used in the context of a pickpocket who bumps into you and makes off with your wallet, except the skuz'apo usually made off with your life. Thanks for a great gaming enviroment, I know the XI MW freezetag players say I suck lol but i'll keep trying to make off with your lives! skuz
