Welcome Kansas88 c u on the FT server.

Welcome to the forums Cracken, c u on FT

A big thanks to admins for trying to resolve the issues and improve our gaming experience. Dealing with having beginner kits once in awhile is a very small price to pay compared to the time and effort the admins put in for us. Thanks again!

Welcome Stone, c u on FT

Happ birthday Star!

suggestion... change the name of the old server to "Moved 208.100.0.135" That way the message that the server has changed will still get to those who don't join beacuse the server is empty and so don't see the welcome screen.

Well done guys! Does that mean I gotta stop killing you Chaos?

If you need another IDE drive let me know, have a few collecting dust in the spares closet.

Great thanks!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday 007

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.

Everytime I line my sights on Astronomer I'm gonna see that image now!

The second one but the headphones are too big!

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.

lol Chaos, i'll do my best to live up to your kind words! :2guns:

yup and Belted arranged to have "the instructions on how to play freezetag" on the map intro splash screen so no more excuses lol

Happy Birthday 24KtCanadian!
