thats a shame, so close and yet so far....

thats a shame, so close and yet so far....

wow, thats great Zooly. This is turning into a real dogz fest...

Following the recent exchange of posts and confusion in the Pedestal boards which had me laughing out loud by the way..I think it is time to bring up the topic of creating a standard "Dogz Time" again for when events will start. On a given day and time, we all set a time piece of some description to the same time. This will become "Dogz Time". This time may be quite a bit different from your local time but there will be no confusion about daylight saving and time zones etc. It will then be down to each person to work out their own difference from the Dogz Time. This time will then be standard, no adjustments. It could be set as a mid atlantic time so not too far out for the majority of K9 members. I think the biggest difference we have is about 8 hours east to west, so all clocks would be on the same day at least! Your thoughts please.....

Having got a new machine with allsorts of clever stuff on it, I thought that I had better start using it... System temps standing idle, no applications running (28 background processes) the temps are as follows; CPU 39 c

My warmest congratulations to you both, I hope mum and baby are doing well. Salute M8 I shall open a special bottle of Priory Special Vintage Port in your honor.

I have just spent a plesent time chatting to Roberts who wants to become a dog, (mad fool) if he stops by I am sure we will make him welcome...oh by the way....he is of scotish origin, part canadian (sounding familar?)so far so good..but here is the rub...he lives in france

thanks guys for the offers. i have been trying different things and think i have it sorted, so we will see how we go tomorrow..

Hi Guys, After losing my flying time on thursday trying to recover my sound after my 14yr old daughter ad "tweeked" some of the settings I now have my game sound louder than my teamspeak. in a heavy action scenario the talk is almost totally drowned out. Does any one have any clues as to how to go about putting this right, i think i have tried it every which way but still am having problems in not getting it quite right. Cheers Friar

As some of you may know already, I got my new rig up and running yesterday.. My old machine, in Blackdeath at 2:30 running at 1024x768 with most graphics on middle or low setting returned these; Min: 13, Max: 64, Avg:39 On the new rig, exactly the same settings; Min:58, Max: 61, Avg: 60 I took vertical sync off and the max shot up to 1000!, thats not a misprint...yes, one thousand....!!!! holy cow!

its feels great wearing the shirt, thats how we meet the 85th, they stopped us as they recognised the name from the ubi forums. we had another guy

thats great zooley. We will give you a meeting point and time near the date, i expect phone nos will be dished out as well so we can find each other.. it will be really good to meet another dog in the flesh.

perhaps the club could say thats where the centre forward gets his lightning pace from.....

Looks like we have lured another lost soul from the wilderness....... Stick around Sulky, enjoy what the dogz have to offer and we will soon get you a "DD_" infront of your call sign. It was nice talking to you and you seem like you would fit in just right, and of course if any of us go near the BBMF, its good to know we have a man on the inside.. I look forward to flying with you agian soon. Cheers Friar

Squawk should know the answer....a little bird told me....am i making a tit of myself....i heard it was a good feature, I've been raven about it....and crowing about it.....a friend of mine dunit as well.....time to go the vultures are starting to circle...

an interesting thread as i am i the same boat, its friday evening, the wife is out and i am about to hit the supply shops drawing up a kit list...............

"..surley you all have pooed your pants at some point........well there was that time when I was in the "The Downed Pilot" when I had been drinking too many pints of Spitfire and I had to pay a visit to the Rest Room (editor:put in for our American friends, for the UK bretheren, insert "Bog") and whilst standing there enjoying the moment and reading some interesting graffiti, I was surprised to find two pilots from the 69th Gay And Proud Squadron standing either side of me...

thanks for that sid, they seem to have good testimonials on the site but you never can tell, a solid recomendation from someone who has used a company is priceless.

how about this one I have just tracked down...Your thoughts please gentlemen..... Supplier

as a starting point I looked at those supplied by dell

what would you guys say to this.... intel 2 quad core q8200 processor 2.33ghz 4mb cache 1333mhz fsb vista home premium 32bit sp1 4gb 800mhz ddr2 23" widescreen hd monitor 500gb hard drive 256mb ati radeon hd 3650 graphics dvd +/- rw integrated 7.1 channel high def audio your thoughts please......

Thats great news chaps, well done, it will be great to meet you.

what about choice of OS... stick with xp pro or go the vista route, if so which flavour...home, home prem, 32bit, 64 bit ?.. I can this developing into a confusing thread..........

Yesterday, whilst disscussing the family financial situation and other thinks, I happened to comment to my wife about the age of our system and the problems we have been having (blue screens and freezes, also the printer is starting to die) and that I may have to do a re, ref, (come on friar you can say it, deep breath now......) reformat, there, I said it!, bless her cotten socks she says "could you get a new one?", "oh" says me, "I suppose we could.........." So the point of this rambling post is, do any of the UK guys know of any good packages / can offer a good reccomendations to a machine/package that would give me a new flat screen (of decent size), printer, and good machine for gaming, before I start trawling the net.....oh, and the budget £1000!!

we've thought about that before Gec, but then we have the trouble of distributing the tickets, arranging funds transfers etc, so its best we just get our own ticket.
