Thanks for all of your suggestions and humour. Looks like Cub Cadet it is. According to the Farmer's Almanac, the 2018-19 winter may have me wanting one of those Diesel Electric Snow Melting jobs. I guess I''d need to win the lottery first just to pay for the fuel/electric, though. @J3st3rXI - Here are pics of my aging and ailing Ariens. It's a 20" with a 5HP Tecumseh, pull-start engine. It starts hard. Like I'm talking pull the damn starter a bazillion times, and then it might start. I let the local high school shop class give it their best shot. They lost the governor linkage for the carb, so I had to fashion one from a paperclip. It now runs too lean and fast - when I can get it started, that is. I think it could use new carb, but like you say, parts are apparently non existent after a few years, and this one was built back in the 80s. The drive clutch could use adjustment as it feels like it's engaged all the time. It's pretty hard to push as a result. One of the tires (inflatable) has a slow leak, but just fast enough to where you need to pump it up before each use. What do you think I should reasonably ask for it when I put it up for sale? I need it out of here so I'll have space for a new one, so I want it to move quick.

Not a lick of difference in COD5, but I just upgraded to a 1080Ti and it's had a somewhat satisfying effect on X-Plane 11. If COD5 is all you play, then even your 970 is overkill. I think I started on a 550 I think it was and it was running all sliders to the right without it breaking a sweat. This game is not that hard on a GPU.

Hey @spinpuppy - Calling Mr. Home Depot... My old Ariens snowblower is on its last legs. What does Home Depot got these days that I might want to get as a replacement? And is this a good time to buy, or are there better times of the year to buy one of these seasonal bad boys? My current snowblower is a two-stage with a 5.5hp engine (I think it is) and an auger of about 21" - 24". No attachments or lights or any fancy frills like that, not even an electric start. Although that sure would be nice since a lot of snowblowing happens in the dark, and yanking that goddam pull starter gets old real quick! Thanks for your expert assistance. And, btw, the Toro Personal Pace lawnmower you recommended rocks!

So the slow boat has finally docked? Oh god. There's that word. If you were in COD5 DM2 last night you know what I'm talking about. But I digress. Welcome new Idiot.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It also has shitloads of maps that weren't in the last set. It was too damn late last night for me to work that out, lol. The world won't end, I promise you.

HA! Okay. So if the other Admins are playing DJ with the maps, must be Rcon they're using? It's been a really long time since I looked at that program and I've forgotten if it actually shows the maps when the server's doing player-based rotation.

Good Morning! A new rotation set is now in play on DM2. Enjoy. Does anyone really care what the maps are that make up each new rotation set? I'd really like to know if that's any kind of a value-add for any of you. For those who may be interested, the new rotation set contains the following maps: //Small Map Rotation map mp_78bathroom map mp_asylum map mp_egn map mp_hospital map mp_killhouse map mp_koshiki map mp_little_town map mp_opera map mp_trainingcamp //Medium Map Rotation map mp_78outpost map mp_agx_depot2 map mp_alcazaba map mp_ax_neuville map mp_bgate map mp_byalistok map mp_chateau map mp_cw_burgundy map mp_db_snowypark map mp_downtown map mp_falaise5 map mp_gits_terminal map mp_jungle map mp_makin map mp_murmansk map mp_nvabase map mp_psycho map mp_reichattack map mp_snr_vimyrd map mp_stream2 map mp_turm map mp_xi_jordan5 //Large Map Rotation map mp_78townville map mp_agx_psel map mp_assault map mp_beltot map mp_byalistok map mp_claremont map mp_cw_pacific map mp_ederdam map mp_gustav map mp_kursk map mp_lsb_gloomy_moor map mp_normandie map mp_panzerschlacht_02e map mp_river_09b map mp_shrine map mp_snr_arnhemwt map mp_stronghold map mp_trenchville map mp_vm_jungle map mp_winter_crash

Hi Beers. II put the new rotation in last night, but I noticed it was playing airfield before I went in to let the guys playing know it would be available after a restart. Deaddawn let me know that he's seen the server sporadically restart over the past couple of days. Not a lot, but not normal either. I'll follow up with rugger on this. Doesn't appear to be related to the new rotation though. Whew.

Oh God, sooooo true!

Hello COD5 DM2 Fans !!! Beers is stepping down from his role as Head Admin and DM2 Server Admin. He and the ms are planning on some travel, no doubt to some exotic places. Newark, NJ comes to mind. Kidding aside, Beers has been a foundational member of the COD5 team, and in all capacities he has served, he will be sorely missed. Thank you Beers for your contributions to this clan at all levels. You have always brought great credit upon yourself and the Xtreme Idiots. Thankfully, between travels, he'll still be a regular member of the clan and we can (hopefully) still call on him for advice when needed. And still kill him a lot in the game. Now, for the rest of you lot, looks like you'll be stuck with me as the DM2 Server Admin for the foreseeable future. I can hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth already. Being retired and all, Beers had the luxury of doing rotations for servers whenever he saw fit. Apparently that usually meant Thursdays. I, on the other hand, am still a working stiff, and so the rotation changes will have to slip to the weekends. Current thought is Saturday morning. You're all watching cartoons then anyway, right? If this totally sucks for you, let me know and I'll consider your hardship, and then probably get over it. Okay, that is all for now. See you all on the server, and you can shoot me there. Mot

Thanks Beers., I figured I was going to have to scramble to get this done today, It's why I came to the site on my lunch hour looking for the login credentials Merlin sent me. @Merlin007 - we gotta connect sometime soon. I don't want Beers to have to miss any of those great destinations he and Ms. Beers want to go traveling to..

The obvious thing to do would be to post a screenshot, but that's blocked due to a "security policy". I am able to take screenshots elsewhere, so idk... Anyway the error I'm getting at https://www.xtremeidiots.com on Chrome for Android on a Galaxy Note8 says: duc?

This generally occurs when you don't have the map and the game has to download it. Not that it's the only reason, but that's the most common reason. You can use the XI Downloader to get all the maps at once if you like. You can find the downloader here:

yinn, Thank you for your appeal. The banning Admin will be with you when able. Please be patient. Additional commentary is not particularly constructive on either side of the fence. Let's let the banning Admin weigh in without escalating the matter in the meantime. Thank you.

Agree Beers. No hack present at all.

Just please, for the love of God, make my Google assistant sound like the one making the hair appointment.

Nice! Mr Wick really knows how to dip that thing.
