*looks left and right* umm, that's a kid's game. I had it way back when, liked it, and won an auction for it out of nostalgia's sake. It's not exactly a game adults would be playing.... :uhoh:

OMFG. :eek: :drool:

Just wanted to add - Many people have mentioned how the new Pirates of the Spanish Main ships work fantastically with WSaIM. As for Old School Avalon Hill, there's nothing better IMO than Titan, the Monster Slug-a-thon game.

The Center position should be reduced to only having to field one of for a team. The scarcity of Centers makes that position disproportionally difficult to be productive in. Factor in how few teams in the NBA actually have a player that resembles a classic Center, and it's even worse. Many times...

I'm pissed. I was looking for this thread the past week, during a transfer to a new computer, and couldn't find it, since I didn't know where it would be located (don't read the boards much anymore). Oh, well - I doubt if I have enough time to properly dedicate to improve on my first year's...

just wanted to say that I, for one, am glad Carpe's back. :)

Thanks for the replies. I'll reply back when I get some time.

But - If they are hiring nobodies, why the hell would they cast them if they were "talentless"? I mean, you know what I'm getting at? ;) I know tons of people hated the first one because *gasp* it didn't have beholders or dragons that were exactly like D&D , but we shouldn't expect the next...

ummm.. what do you really MEAN, "stolen"? All movies take ideas from elsewhere - did Lucas ever mention that the Jedi Archives was a unique creation?

This FotR talk DEFINATELY belongs in a different thread. You can't just tiptoe your toe in the waters of "LotR movies had flaws." As for the D&D movie, it was heartening to hear the comment about "excitement about the franchise" etc. It was disheartening to hear them even consider such a...

Thanks, all. This is some of what I was hoping for. What HP Scanjet do you use? They have many models, don;t they? Rackir - The Fujitsu (as I've been told) is a piece of crap from the 20th century. AFAIK, the ScanPartner 15C is over 5 years old. It's very likely that the ADF needs repair - I...

It's critical for us to know how much (approximately) data you are looking to copy. If it's in the multiple-GB range, just swapping in your old HD in the new computer is the best. If it's small (1/2 a GB or so, the memory stick is the best approach.

Thanks for the recommendations. But I think my company would prefer to stick within the technologies that they have experience with (scanners), instead of utilizing one they don't know (copiers, senders). Does anyone have experience with modern scanners and OCR?

We've been using a Fujitsu ScanPartner 15C (using Kodak Imaging Professional software) :eek: We're not currently using OCR. The Fujitsu is not being used anymore because it was skipping pages too often. I'm guessing they get at least a couple hundred pages a day they need scanned. The OCR...

My work scans their Repair Orders, then manually records the work order # for tracking purposes in the Comments field of the file. This comments field is visible to the 98 clients, but invisible to the XP clients. The scanner isn't working very well at all anymore, and they've stopped using it...

Ya, it totally depends on the build. Unless the paladin is taking REALLY good advantage of the few CHA-oriented feats and abilities, than it's not worth increasing CHA over STR. IME, CHA-based Paladins are only impressive if you REALLY max out CHA from the beginning. Of course, this is all...

While I recognize the troll element here, I'll reply for the people taking it seriously: Do you really think that nakedness is an issue with people who risk their lives on a day-to-day basis with these companions, and who get hacked up repeatedly, sometimes maimed (less than 0 HP's), sometimes...

Dude, I literally don't know where to START. There's at least 30 minutes of typing material that you've given us to blow your "theory" out of the water. I don't have that much time, or interest in proving what anyone could find out from just re-reading what's already been typed. You keep saying...

*applauds* I am SO sick of us geeks chiming in with "Heresy!" "Crime against the original!" and "This movie will suck!" just because Hollywood decides to market a film a certain way. God forbid people just watch the movie and ON IT'S OWN MERITS, decide whether it's good or not.

Congrats, Pielorhino!
