Timmah!

please be safe,,get out of the area!!!!

hi all,
i have been in communication with Flowerpower and i asked him for if he would like to share anything about this dad, he sent this message via flowerpower 
 
Good morning Dave ,
 
 From the son of Peter .
 
N MEMORIAM – TANGMERE-XI
 
All,
 
I’m writing a message on behalf of my dad, whom is known to you as Tangmere-XI.
He enjoyed gaming with you guys very frequently and also for several
(many) years in a row so most of you might know him.
 
Sadly, I have to inform you that my dad Peter passed away at 5 September last month, due to a cardiac arrest.
Still can’t believe it, but I’m sure he wants me to move on from this when the time is right, otherwise he would’ve kicked my ass.
 
Every night he was playing World at War.
Throwing around buzzwords through the headset like ‘’Jochie, Lamlul and Wichser’’ at random, these words became quite familiar to me as well.
He was always having fun with you guys and I’m glad that he did.
Even whilst I was sitting upstairs, I heard him laughing and saying these famous buzzwords all the time. But probably there were a lot more than the three I mentioned before.
 
He recently bought a new PC, and needless to say I was trying to move him over to newer, more recent Call of Duty and ActionRPG-games as I – and everybody’s mother almost – is playing these nowadays.
But… you know the fun part?
He didn’t want to as he said multiple times ‘’Nah…these guys ain’t on there - they are all on World at War so I’ll just stay there.’’ That is how much he enjoyed playing with you guys.
I couldn’t get him over to enjoy all the new-generation games with me, even when he sat at a new 3000 Dollar PC….. Thanks I guess, guys?
 
I’m so glad and thankful for the trips we made in the last years. Father and son.
As some of you may know we visited some famous WW2-sites.
2x Normandy, 1x Bastogne and two months ago we went to Germany to do some third-reich sightseeing.
These were great, great trips where we had lots of fun and where we saw many interesting stuff.
Obviously these trips are now very, very special to me.
 
Please know that Peter (Tangmere), still IS the best dad that I could’ve ever wanted, and I’m very grateful for the times I spent with him and for all that he thought me.
Although it was (way too) short, I will keep him and his memories close to my heart.
As a kid I had everything I wished for because of him and my mom and he raised me as a proper man with morals, values and virtues. I’m proud of him.
 
_On behalf of Tang…._
*I want to thank you all for the good and fun times online. It was a real pleasure.* *One last salute to you all.*
 
If you want more pictures let me know.
 
It was intense to read...what kind words from a son for his father Gr Mat (flower
 
As flower said what lovely words at his time of grief.

never forgotten and loved by us all x

Serious inquiries only
If you accept & renege, I will find out where you live, come to your house & flick you on the nose

Just to let you know that TangemereNL has passed away at the age of 56. He played on the DM3 server for a long time. He was a very funny person and is badly missed by his friends. Please spare a thought for him and his family. Thank you.

A big factor with credit scores is actually your debt to credit ratio, or the credit utilization ratio.  It's not just having debt itself but having a low ratio of debt to available credit.  Sometimes it's best to not close an account that you no longer want to use, because it helps this ratio.  A lower ratio is better for your credit score.
For example, if you have $15,000 in outstanding balances but have access to $50,000 in available credit, then your ratio is 30%.  But say you decide to no longer use a card that had a $15,000 available credit limit and you close the account.  You still have $15,000 in oustanding balances but have access to only $35,000 now, and your ratio has increased to almost 45%.  That could lead to a considerable decrease in your credit score, if all other things remain the same, i.e. payment history, on-time payments, credit checks, etc.

Debt is part of the equation. If you carry very little to no debt, your credit score will actually decrease. If you want to icrease your score, carry a bit on your credit cards. Vary the amount to see when it actually increases. Just don't be late with those payments - thats part of your score too. I noticed when I no longer had a mortgage my score took a pretty big hit. When I got another mortgage it went back up. Stupid I know, but there you are.

Be safe, brother!

Mine was 850 for a while back in 2022-2023
 

Not those kind, men of culture.
Lovely plate of thighs...
I save the grease for my cat...and drizzle on fries!
Chicken enchiladas tomorrow, baby!
Of course, save & freeze the bones for making stock/broth/consomme.
Also, if your thighs are rubbery, you're not cooking them to a hot enough internal temperature. 
Being dark meat, they should be cooked to an internal temperature of 180F - 190F to melt the collagen & connective tissue.
40 - 45 minutes at 425F should get 'er done.
Buy a dual probe ThermoPro & you'll raise your cooking game an order of magnitude.

I’m down to farm bot for yall if needed, dont know how much Ill be able to play with my work schedule.

Damn!!
Dropped my pencil Again!
Clumsy me.

OMG THIGHS love thighs! When I was in grade 9 there was this girl that sat  to my right in home class she always wore very short miniskirts and mini dresses. Most beautiful thighs ever.

Haha right on Weed.  I stopped buying life insurance.  Don't really carry much debt.
Plus the highest credit score you can get is 850...at least in the U.S.  Not sure how that translates in Canadian credit LOL

@Timmah!
@Smeggie
If 850 is the max anyone who has an Excellent in the wording has just that  an Excellent CS 

Ever have issues getting it much over 800-ish?
Not that it makes much practical difference, just slightly annoying. 
Have a good mix of credit with auto pay set for statement balance closing date, rather than due date.
 

When you become old! Like Weed your credit score will always be over 850! 
The credit bureaus know you have life insurance and all your bills will be covered, just saying.

Think you posted the wrong graph, because none of those are 850!
 

Be safe, brother!

I might be looking to get back into Rust... 

I had to quit playing DayZ because I was playing it way way way to much. At one point I was playing it for 100 hours a week. DayZ and Rust are similarly addictive and time consuming.

Be safe, brother!

Happy Birthday brothers
 
 
TIMMAH!!!!  lol

I am a huge rust guy, very fun game.  However, you should stop trying to get people into rust.  It will ruin their entire lives.
