Yes it would. Someone should do that for him.... (makes mental note to get Brownie points) (magnumkp is in no way a brownie, nor ever has been, Oh apart from once in a stage show.)

I'm working on gr, RvS and SplinterCell wallpapers but I need to know are most peoples monitor set to 1024? How many people run it higher than that and would you like me to provide 2 versions 1024 and 1280? (Sorry not catering for you evil 800 users! Curse your little viewing pleasures.)

And now the crowd hold their breath as they wait the announcement of the winner of the Fifth Sig Awards , sponsored by Ghost Recon.net. The judges cast their eyes over the enteries, a small whispered discussion over one of the entrants is seen. And the crowd wait on...

Thats like 1500000mbs (1500 gbs?) of data transfered! OMG! I had that misfortune on RvS last night. Didn't realise why I kept dying so easily... Until now

do u think ghost recon 2 will be 56k friendly?
magnumkp replied to cajun47's topic in GR2 PC - [Cancelled]
You can't blame them really, I know it will be unpopular but heck somethings got to stop at some point. Didn't Freeserve put a 1gb a day cap on there downloads? 1 gb is quite a lot isn't it. Now onto the spam peddling ijiodts you send me useless ###### enhancing offers every day. If they could be stopped then maybe that would free up some bandwidth. Good job Irn-bru on getting kicked off BT, you must have been using it a helluva lot! (I adopted John Simpson at the start of the war (thats Gulf War 2) because I thought he was going to be a big player. Instead he got sent up north where he -
Yup always go for the juggler (nearly as good as my coo). Oh well. Freudian slip.

I got meself a 2mb line at work, and 56k at home. It kills me everytime I dial up and see a mod or file to download, even wallpapers make you think twice. But yes these forums are pretty quick its just waiting for everyones signature to get downloaded. I blame php as well.

Whats the longest you ever played GR for?
magnumkp replied to NYR_32's topic in GR (PC) - General Discussion
My longest was 1 hour 58 minutes. Then my ISP cuts me off, and 9 times out of 10 I can't be bothered to turn it back on. (35 hours? You should enter one of those touch the truck competitions or something, but you can't have mountain dew.) -
Big bump on this topic, but I was reading about the Summerhill School. http://www.summerhillschool.co.uk This is a democratic school run by the children and the teachers. Both have equal say. If you want to go to lessons, then go to lessons. If you don't then play outside. I read a quote from the Headteacher (can't find it on the site at the moment) but it was something about kids not attending any lessons if they didn't have to. Her response was how very sad a childhood you must have had if you didn't want to go to classes. Sure at the beginning some children don't but once the initial shock

I agree with you Ruin. People are all out for excuses at the moment. Look at the amount of "have you had an accident" insurance on the tv at the moment. Blame is also popular. Its not my fault... etc etc. I was brought up to be honest and fair, and I at least think I am. Something is going wrong, with this blame culture of ours but everyone, from our government (Clare Short anyone?) to the individuals on the street are getting in on the act. Nepotism is a horrible word but sadly is also very popular. Though to be fair I only got my job because I used to go to school with the bosses daughter

Thats because it is too deep. I.e. like the water you can't go prone. Clever stuff. I thought the same at first, but then I saw the enemy up to their waist in it and I realised.

magnumkp replied to cajun47's topic in GR2 PC - [Cancelled]
Interesting reading. Bloody G3, who the hell wants to look at who they are talking to? Not me (but then again, I never have my mobile on and have only sent one text message!) My local area was recently given 1500 computers by the government and with these a free 3 month dial up trial. So you would think that BT would be busting a gut to provide Broadband to my area as there would probably be a good takeup (95% of the people who got the computer continued with the dial up scheme, but to be fair half of these people are old dears who check there email once or twice a week (i've seen the s -
do u think ghost recon 2 will be 56k friendly?
magnumkp replied to cajun47's topic in GR2 PC - [Cancelled]
Most rural areas don't have it (like me, yes, I'm a carrot crunching toss-pot) and even some larger towns have only very recently got it. Our only choice is ISDN or wireless stuff by air (which some idiot has just introduced to my fair village, thus allowing BT to hold off even longer.) But how long before adsl users start to lag in games as they (the makers) have too much information to upload/download? Guess I'll just have to wait...., and wait....., and wait...... -
4/11. Maybe I shouldn't put that. People will think I am stupid. Oh hang on, I did spell "coup" "coo", so it might be too late.

I hope GR2 is 56k friendly, but I won't hold my breathe (I'd be holding it for a long time). But, surely making it 56k friendly is better for everyone? It shows time and effort has gone into making games more accesible for the majority of the population, thus more people getting into these games, creating better communities and mods. I'd love to have a better arguement for the developers to keep 56k supported, but I really don't think they will bother. (I can't get adsl at the moment, and our exchange isn't being enabled in the near future, plus at the moment I'm not willingly to spend £30 -
I knew what I meant. I thought people might do an impression of a dead pigeon, thus a bloodless coo. Honest.

400gb?! I thought my 120gb was too big. 21inch monitors are sweet, although I don't notice much different between my work one (21") and my home one (19"). You better post some benchmarks very soon. I got 3972 on '03 version of that benchmarking thing which name currently I forget with no tweaking. I am sure you'res will blow it out the water.

Lol, yup perhaps there could be a bloodless coo and a quick takeover by another well respected member.... Rules me out.

Its got to do with the posting about the amount of people with Shadow in their name. Check this thread: http://www.ghostrecon.net/forums/index.php...4965&hl=shadows (For what it is worth I think they are trying to suck out my mind and replace it with a onion.)

It took all my moral strength not to do it in Flash and have Jerusalem playing in the background, it may have been a bit OTT. (I'd love to do X69RZX in Flash and add the Dukes of Hazard theme, or inspired by frostbite Smokie and the Bandit)
-
Like em all but voted for the ship purely because I love walking past the tv and hearing the smokie and the bandit theme tune. Sweet.

This months is really picking up. Programming pride lol (I can laugh as I have just been working on a php site and somehow "mislaid" 3 contact forms and a FAQ page ) (Edit:// Not my fault! Hurrah! The server had run out of space. Phew)

Little bump on this but ZJJ suggested its nearly time for the latest round at the tournament so in my wisdom I have made you a little flash thing to help you get every point you can. Also feel free to show your support for our heroic troops with this little image: http://www.magnumkp.com/sigs/gogr.swf
