But, finally got my machine up and running again. FINALLY, got back in BF2 tonight. *woot*

And...yes. I see I still rule the armor.

:flipoff:

Didn't see no kippendrecht rabbit out there or he would have been ground to dust under my treads as well.

I do notice a markable improvement in the air cover. It does play hell with an APC or tank, but my kill rate was still high and I sat atop the leader board a few times (about midgame. The sissy meds usually make top spots, while the armor is covering their butts).

So I have to say.....JEFF!! Get your ass outta wow and come back to BF2 once in a while. We can kick some butt!

I need a good sidekick.

:thumbsup:

Wahoo! More WiH tankers! (Never mind Jeff)

Maybe we can form a armor squad some night. We used to do that back when and it was kickass! Jeff and I would both be engineers in tanks and go side by side repairing each other while raping and pillaging the enemy ranks. :thumbsup:

Then.....he got all weird and went to WoW.

:dunno:

:jester:

P.S. For those of you who are newer, you can generally consider everything I post after midnight as the mindless rambling of a one eyed fat man. I'm wasted by then. :hehehe:

Sorry Kip. I noticed you weren't from around here and knew our paths wouldn't cross much. Just talkin smack! Maybe on a weekend sometime. :beer:

Dink, it was 1:30 am when I dropped in last night, about an 18 pack in me, I was toast. Up at 6 and back to work to solve all of Citgo's problems.

No sissy medic can drink like that. Only a tanker.

:jester:

edit...Oh yeah. And I sniped some guys heads off last night, too. :flipoff:

Ultrasonic Testing, it is part of NDT you should know that as a welder/designer of preasure vessels (I am assuming your tanks are preasurized)

Of course I know ultrasound. I are a welder. :jester: And there's UT required in this Citgo pressure vessel spec I'm lucky enough to be perusing this morning. A beer would be nice. :hehehe:

I guess I'm not familiar with Unreal Tournament. :dunno:

I'll wander off topic and mention that our NDE company had an RT source STOLEN a couple weeks ago. They found it along side a freeway a few days later. Some crackhead probably took it and didn't have any idea what it was till he took a closer look, maybe noticed the death warnings all over it. LOL

So what is it you do now, Dink? I forget.

I went to college after doing NDT, I am now a safety engineer for the world leader in aviation electronics... things like GPS, landing systems, navigation systems, auto pilots.... im on commercial side, I know that goverments side does all that too plus things like rocket guidance... you know goverment avionics.


Someone had to get in MAJOR trouble for that source being stolen. I got written up for having the wrong TLD (personal radiation monitor), I couldn't imagine loosing a source.

and to pretend that we are still on topic.... errrrrr....hmmmmm....ahhh
I only got to play 3 maps last night and only 1 of them had tanks, and not that many tanks... It was a 32 player server so no idea what 64 players are like.

Oh that's right. It's coming back to me now. Kick butt job!

:thumbsup:

I got lucky last night and got some maps I really like. There are some I don't think I've gotten to play at all yet. I was in game for some little island map the other day, for about a round. Looked interesting. Unless you're an armor fan.

:yuck:

How many new maps are there?
