That looks so yummy !! I wish I had some kuyrdak (also spelled kuirdak, a dish made from roasted horse, sheep, or cow offal, such as heart, liver, kidneys, and other organs, diced and served with onions and peppers). Raw onions are good for your breath. I could go for some horse delicacies, such as zhal (smoked lard from a horse's neck) and zhaya (salted and smoked meat from a horse's hip and hind leg). Ulpershek is a dish made from the heart, aorta, and fat of a horse. Sounds delicious !! When you have eaten all of the horses you will have no COWBOYS. Think about it. Mypalau is a dish made from sheep’s brain made by putting the brain in a wooden bowl, add marrow and some pieces of meat, add salted fat broth and garlic, and this dish is often served to honored guests. I would hate to know what you serve to DISHONORED GUESTS. Just kidding !! One of my favorite foods is chitterlings. Every culture is different. The French "use" to eat horses too. Pssst ... they still do. Chitlins' http://whatscookingamerica.net/History/ChitlinsHistory.htm

My personal opinion is that no one wants to see what you had for lunch splattered all over your tank.

I agree. Needle is the second ugliest paint in my opinion. I use it and it is very effective; but it makes your tank look like a bag of grass clippings.

Your silence may be an even greater sign of hostility.

No. My account is safe. I am trying out a new technique. I call it STEALTH TROLLING. Nice pic. You can really jump. Are those Foster Grant's you are wearing ?

Stop doing that stuff.

Please shut your piehole. You make me want to

I sense hostility.

Thanks.

I love Kentucky Fried Chicken too. I eat 4 or 5 buckets a week. I am hoping to become one of the lucky customers that gets one of their world famous Kentucky Fried Rats. That ol' Colonel sure knows how to fry up some rats !! I'm from Georgia. No not that one. The other one.

Who has the worst tank paint scheme in Tankionline ? I will start the contest off with my entry. It really STINKS !! No prizes will be awarded. The winner's prize was to be a box of Little Debbie Oatmeal Cakes. I ate 'em. Sorry. Feel free to post you pictures and/or videos. Forum users will determine the winner. I guess it doesn't matter where you post on the Forum anymore. Remember. If your Mum tells you that your paint scheme stinks; you need to enter the contest. You could be a winner. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxR7ENBkusU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cfrC2vg-MI

Is the map in the vid on the test server or is it only in TTT ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvNxvuvv_3w

You can unglue your finger from that F4 key now. The offer still stands ... make a video. Make it entertaining. Make it using TTT. Put some music in it too. I am trying to add sound to the gun shots with a spacebar hack. That would be really nice. Can you help me out ? LOL. Remember. I am still available to take command of the Vengeance Clan. I know you guys are struggling to make a go of it. You need a mature, intelligent leader like myself to take it to the top of the PILE. Where did all these flies come from Cletus ?

I think it is safe to assume that Mister G and nuclearbom "use" the program, but made no effort to understand, translate, or refine it for the English forum. It is easy to berate other peoples efforts while you are making no effort yourself. Post some entertaining or informative videos made with TTT guys. Please. I don't want to see your Creative blah, blah stuff. Impress us !! Old Poker player sez: "Time to put up or shutup."

Quote Cheese: "dont worry, i havent said all that there is to do in TTT, i will make a video showing some other stuff...if im feeling kind i might tell you how to do it." Gawd !! What could I do without you ? What would life be without EGO ? I wonder .... DISCUSSION OVER BYE.

Here comes a really BIG ONE. This is the portion of Cheese3000's FAQ that I used to set it up. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE !! OLD VERSION TANK TESTER Ensure that there is a "map.xml" in the main file, then: Open FlashPlayer. Click "file" "Open..." "Browse..." and go to "TanksTestingTool".

Just a suggestion, Cheese. You might want to "streamline" your FAQ. It has a lot of extras about the Alternativa editor which might confuse a lot of people. I know you are into maps, but most of us regular guys just want to JUMP !! I used the old version of Tank Tester. The EXE version never worked correctly for me. I copied the portions of the FAQ that related to the old version of the tester and saved it as a text file. I just edited the "config.xml" file. You are right I adjusted the speed section. Hope this works: ... 1000 1000 180000 3400 400... Just locate that code in the XML file and change the speed for the Smoky. I also noticed that the MO Smoky never fired. I believe that the other Smoky's do. You can do it for just one or all of the hulls. I just adjusted forward speed. A Mammoth can really JUMP !! The physics where fun to play with until my tank floated off. Attenion: You will also need the updated config file. It is in Cheese3000's FAQ. I will put something together for Mr. Lunga. I may leave out a lot of your extras. You can create something for the blog or anyone else for that matter. Just as long as the info gets out there. It would make for some really interesting videos and contests. Thanks again for all your efforts, Cheese. You may regret having brought all that info to the English forum !! How about that 360 over the top of the Mammoth !! I think I can do a double 360 on some of the other maps.

Wall of Words coming right up !! Playing with the Tank Tester in Silence II. No I did not speed up the video. I modified the config file for Smoky MO. I have had a lot of fun with it. Thanks to cheese3000 for all of his great FAQ's and documentation. I use it to practice with when I don't have access to the internet. It can really improve your eye/hand coordination. Did you know it will run off of a "flash drive" ? Pssst ... take it to work and get fired for using it on company time. I did !! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbWsLPqF4Xs

SEPTEMBER IS: BACK TO FARTING IN SCHOOL MONTH Time to give up farting in the wide open fields and get back to farting in the classroom where you can really make an impact.

1. Who are you people ? 2. You mean people actually read that "scroll" ? 3. I wish Tanki would make the chat section an OPTION. I just want to see my Garage and the Battle List. Not a bunch of "scrolling" that I have no interest in reading.

A few honest comments and some minor spelling corrections ... BOOM !! Since when does that rate a ban ? I think you may be a little too sensitive. Don't take everything so personally.

but your horible at it... :roll: And you need to stay out of Spelling Bees. There TWO r's in horrible. I'm not your fan. Two words together is considered a compound word. You capitalize the FIRST letter only. Stay with the commentary. That wasn't YOU following me up the ramp with an Isidia last night? It must have been the capitalized V that blurred my vision. Hmmmm ... let me see if I can find that screen cap. Anyway good job. I could never hear the other guy. P.S. It's YOU ARE or YOU'RE. Your is a possessive pronoun. Second language problems ?

If you missed the live Developers/Players match this morning you really missed a good one !! I had never seen a "live" match before and really enjoyed it. A large part was due to the excellent broadcasting skills of Shadowvisions. He knew the players and described the action in detail. His commentary was outstanding and relevant. He made the match even more exciting. If he had been on the Isidia it would have been a runaway victory. I personally think he should have been "in the match". His video was my favorite and in my opinion the best. Alas, I was not one of the judges. Even if I had been a judge I would have probably been under a BAN, yet again, and could have not voted. Tankionline needs to reward him with some crytals for his outstanding efforts. Maybe I will not get banned for this one. Trolling is a lonely and thankless job, but someone has got to do it !!

It isn't the quantity ... it's the QUALITY that counts.
