Hi, all!
Has anyone noticed yet that we have produced a new "most users online"-record with 85 (eighty-five!) last tuesday?
And we did it at 3:22 GMT.
Quite impressing!
Or is that some weird error in the database?
New "Most users online"-record!

Hmm, my, possibly paranoid, thought would be a swarm of bots trying to sign up to spam...and is swarm the correct collective name for them?

Or if you are me, the collective is called a dream target!

You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.

I dunno, I quite enjoy watching the spammer and everything in a two metre radius of it exploding into a red and dirt coloured cloud. It's kind of....artistic.Cmdr. Maegil wrote:Finally! That's your chance to play with the Vulcan and see every slug hit!
Besides, the alterations on this clock tower are getting pretty radical, what with reills' cannon turret and Uncle Reno drawing up plans for a mortar pit, it got to be the most well armed and adaptable sniper tower in all creation!

Soon you'll have to change the "Clock-Tower" on your location to "keep".Besides, the alterations on this clock tower are getting pretty radical, what with reills' cannon turret and Uncle Reno drawing up plans for a mortar pit, it got to be the most well armed and adaptable sniper tower in all creation!
