What Games Do People Play While DL'ing.

I play taipei, a very old game from 1990 by Dave Morris from MS. Help me I'm addicted to it!

Can't. JM never answered my question in the last thread about what type of video card he has. He fell asleep at the keyboard this morning. How about u? Anyway after he fell asleep I went out and starting monkeying around with my aquifer pump and squashed a finger, cut my forearm, and nicked a shin. It's all JM's fault of course for falling asleep! Not really thought. I was relaying to JM that I was signing off. I know now why he didn't respond.

Old Crab - I added a few lines in the Marathon thread last nite/morning about chocolate and people went beserk.

we were only trying to make you feel welcome in our own way
after all, what sort of people would we be if we weren't friendly? perhaps we get a little overexcited at times, but it is a thread were you can be free to let your hair (or fur) down

"And they called him "Old Crabbie".. he lived by the sea..
he scavenged for beach junk...
to sell for a fee."

"They all came to see him... till he found a big shell..
And now there's no "Old Crab",
They've sent him to (censored)

Games?! Who's got time for games?! While I'm downloading, (which doesn't take long since I got 1Mb/sec broadband) I play Photoshop 5.5, a great game from Adobe.

I play a game called "Let's stare at the screen and watch a blue line going across the screen while a thing just under it says 2.00kb/s"

It's kinda hard to explain the rules, but once you know them, it's easy.

Just don't cheat, or else you'll never be forgiven.

Having a magnificent 400 megahertz of computing power, a 56k modem that usually connects at 26,400, and an internet service that kicks me off line if somebody they like better signs on, I sit very quietly and hope.

If this were other sites I would say "pocket pool" with accusatory glances at the wallpaper section...

i'm usually d/l'ing stuff from multiple sites at once while running online streaming video with the volume nixed so i can hear the streaming audio from musicmatch at the same time with a couple IM windows open and usually cleaning out the HD in the background from the junk I d/l'ed earlier that day.

broadband is nice...

i run dsl and am close to the link, so decent sites run me through at around 380-600 mbps. the slow server sites, well, they run at their decrepit speeds.....

/me ?????
/me doesn't remember that happening

if people keep on like this i am going to develop a complex

on behalf of 1/3 of the thread's mass (now that is a scary accomplishment! ) can i just say all visitors are welcome!

it is just that the thread has been going since the 27th January 2002 !!!

so in the last 11 months with only a handful of regular posters, we have developed our own little universe

just take a little time to settle in, and for us to get used to you, is all.

just don't be surprised if the animals get a bit excited at times, we don't get many visitors

as for "being insufficiently hirsute", GM, JavaBean and werewolf half the time aren't exactly furry either, and they are all regulars

/me reads a good book while downloading

broadband???
i have a 56k modem, and get disconnected every 2 hours, if i don't get a random disconnect before that.

still, plenty of time to catch up on my reading
