BBQ with the family and most of the town today, so no flying for me this afternoon. Have a great day, you Canucks!

Just read this quote re: negative reception to the ball...

No, not pro, just competitive, rather than just a friendly "beer" league. Organized, league play, final tournament, etc.

Pretty much. They play up to high school age (U18), and then go off to college and such, where few play. It's not that they give up just soccer - they give up everything! If anything does get played, it's usually some level of hockey.

Are you kidding? Canada at the World Cup? I don't think we've ever really gotten close to qualifying, ever.

There are different versions of softball: slow-pitch and fastball. Slow-pitch uses a looping pitching delivery, and a fourth outfielder/rover. It's less competitive. Fastball uses a "windmill" underhand delivery, which is actually the fastest way to deliver a ball. The best fastball pitchers can hit 105+ mph, better than a baseball pitcher, due to the longer period of delivery (more rotation.) In both cases, the ball is about 2x as large as the regular baseball. Baseball, or hard-ball, uses the smaller baseball, and an overhand delivery. It is the "typical" game seen on TV played by the professionals. There are many other differences in rules between the 3, as well as the size of the field, and base distances, but those are the main visible differences. I used to play on a competitive fastball team, infield, catcher, and relief pitcher.

Good to hear from you Bucky! We're patched up to 4.09m on the stock game, and the mod-pack is UltraPack 2.01n. TS infor is here: http://www.dangerdogz.com/forums/index.php/topic/1672-teamspeak-servers/

Very nice, thanks! Same guy who did Band of Brothers?

John, I swear that you find the weirdest things... Most people these days don't even know what that thing is!

Lucky dog.....

Salute, TopAce! Good to hear from you, mate! The Dogz still fly Tuesday and Thursday evenings, Saturday evenings with UbiZoo COOP's, and Sunday evenings (most of the time.)

What happened to your cannon tips?

Oh, there are so many ways that I could go with this one, but I'd better refrain.....

Yeah, you can tell the Canadian F-18's by the false canopy on the underside for aspect deception.

I've always been impressed at how our boys get the most out of the Hornet....we have some fantastic pilots, and the Hornet is a fantastic high AoA plane to fly!

Nice plane! Did he at least beat up the field on the way out?

Seems to be working better for me today.... Oh, may be not. I'm getting logged out, and can't post in the BoB 2010 thread....

Gelderland? Jeez, you're practically German then!

I d/l'ed it, no problems at all with their .exe - point it to my game folder, and in it goes. No changing of any files required (yet....) Looks like a nice map so far; not much bigger than Cannon's, but some more elevation changes. I'll have to fly over FT's house...

Pooched. Is that like bolloxed?
