    Do You Play With The Grid On Or Off?

    On for city placement and mapping long sea journeys, off most of the rest of the time.

    My units_32.pcx, with 1000+ icons added

    Sorry if I'm the only one who can't figure this out but... Is there a units_32 file with Conquest units and at least some of the created units from here? @Supa - I'm not being a wise guy, but I thought this was the graphics forum... where should I be looking? Thanks.

    116 trilion dollars!!!!!!!!!! this cant be real!

    I think the point of the law suit is not to try and collect an impossible amount of money, nor is it likely the plaintiffs will collect huge sums any time soon. Simply put, it's a way to strip those who have financially supported terrorism of their U.S. assets and it's the right thing to do...

    Help desperate for riddle/brainteaser answer!

    They meet once but before they start getting selected to go into the room. It's so they can make a plan to be sure they declare they've all been there after they all actually had.

    Assume you are a prisoner. You can't talk to any of the other prisoners (in isolation) and have no way of knowing who has been there and who hasn't, unless you work out a system with the light switch, which is the problem.

    Ehem, GTA3 is a $68 coaster

    My kid got GTA3 on PS2 and I sat down for the first time last week to play it. I haven't stopped. I'm sure I'll get tired once I win, but for now it's a lot of fun. I bought Medal of Honor for PC and it needs a different video card. I was very disappointed and I'll have to get one, I guess.

    Civaholics support group

    I'm an episodal civ addict. In spurts I'll play with nearly all my "free computer time," burn and not touch it for weeks then start the cycle all over again.

    I think they only get together once, before the first one goes. The rest of the time they are either alone in their cells with no view of the room or alone in the room but they can't communicate except by leaving the light on or off.

    I Hate Austin Powers - Are You With Me?

    Ther have been some funny movies in recent years. I hate Adam Sandler crap and most of those spoof movies too (although, as stated above, the first AP grew on me.) State and Main was intelligent and funny, The Royal Tennebaums had its moments as did O Brother Where Art Thou. How many years...

    Another of those time-wasting flash-games

    He must have figured out a way to "trap" the ball between the wall and the mouse. Did you see his time? 5103 hits in 15 minutes? I get to about 25 and it takes roughly 25 seconds. In 15 minuntes I'd have 900-1000 hits, not 5 times that. He's probably not technically cheating but found an...

    Is this definitely the entire puzzle? You didn't leave anything out? Having trouble figuring how it could be cumulative and definitive for all prisoners. Where did you hear this? Please respond as it's driving me and my coworker crazy now too, thanks.

    I Hate Austin Powers - Are You With Me?

    It's coming out this Friday in the U.S. - Goldmember. I didn't like the original when I saw it but then ended up watching it again and it grew on me. Now I think it's very funny. The second one did a lot of the same jokes and wasn't nearly as good, although Mini Me was funny and the...

    Funny joke

    I'd actually heard the second with a different ending (only slightly different) and the guy wasn't an engineer. She gives him and cigarette and whiskey then starts to unzip the front zipper and asks "How long has it been since you've played around?" To which he replies "Don't even tell...

    Commercials you HATE.

    I hate 'em too but I think they're brilliant. I can't tell you how many cell phone calls I've been on when someone has said "can you hear me?" and it invariably turns into a commercial callback joke "Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now?" If you remember the ad, good or bad, it worked...

    Cumulative 80's Music Fill-in-the-Blank Quiz!

    I actually think it's "keep track of visions in my mind." And, from the Department of He Knows Too Much About This, that song was not supposed to be on the album (we had albums back then) but Corey Hart's producer brought it in last second and they recorded it for the hell of it. Nice move...
