Just installed the game. Seems like there are a lot of texture files in the install. Might be worth having a look and seeing if you can use some with Oolite!! :wink:

Now there's a world of potential litigious pain... :roll:

Anyway, thanks for the heads-up, although it's downloading at a painfully slow 27KB/s on my 10Mb/s broadband...

World War III WILL be caused by some misunderstanding about use of smileys...

yep.. kinda reminds me of another board I frequent, where, to avoid misunderstandings (and worse), the convention is that sarcasm is written in purple text..

We'll have to invest in the SarcMark (although I haven't bought one - otherwise I'd have used it there!)

Nope genuine, I heard him on the radio last week - he's got 4000+ customers already and a mobile phone company has agreed to include it in their list of symbols - so I guess that's a bulk license (and I've no idea what happens when the sarcmark arrives at another phone which doesn't have it!)

There is one born every minute, isn't there? I wonder how long before they'll come up with such innovative products as CynMark(Patent Pending) to express any cynical opinion, or perhaps an EnnuiMark (Same Patent Pending) when saying something mainly out of boredom, etc. etc...
