What's the rating in "Toms"?
at least 0.95... But it might have to go into the new "Tom in a dress on a date with Roguesnake in a bikini" gay scale.

If you are interested in the naval side forget it. It is gayed up beyond belief.
There is no modeling of wind direction or speed. Ships can turn on the spot. You can drop anchors and stop immediately. Raise the anchor and you accelerate immediately. The amount of sail on the ship is counted like a throttle setting. Ships don't heel over when turning (which effected the ability to fire in those days).

you should have tried the demo first. The thing i wanted it for was naval combat and they have gayed that up more than Roguesnake in a dress.

I'm in Aus too. If you want to arrange a time I can run you through some stuff.

why not just use the save as bmp option for the map and print it in something like Paint shop pro

What an arrogant prick especially for someone who plays dress up for a living...

It strikes me that you need another figure in the equation which is the shock to the projectile of the impact. I am thinking of that mythbusters episode where they fired lots of different guns into water. The lower velocity lead slugs performed better than the full metal jacketed high velocity rounds.

What are the numbers based on?.
Why would Diesel be twice as effective as water and why would methanol be 65% of the value of steel?
Sand would seem to be a ball of string item too. A lot would depend on compaction, water content etc. Whether the sand was wet then compacted then allowed to dry. That is to say look at the difference between fine sand such as chinchilla sand in a friable state and Sandstone.

I use paintshop pro rather than Photoshop but the principals are the same.
- Make sure you have set the image to the maximum colour depth allowed (24 bit in PSP).
- Make sure when you resize you use the "Smart Size" option.
- Run a clarify filter over it after resizing.

I find myself torn on the whole subject of piracy. On one hand there are the legitimate developers like Esim who produce a good product and should be paid for it. There are a lot of less (in my opinion) legitimate developers who pump out garbage which deserve pirating, T-34 vs Tiger springs to mind.
I would be interested to see the stats on how the increase in games becoming available to buy digitally has affected piracy on those titles. If nothing else I think that one of the causes of piracy is people wanting instant gratification rather than having to go down the shop and pay an inflated price. (because of all the middlemen). Take for example left4dead which can be bought for US$49 online. I saw it in EB the other day for AU$99 which is more like US$60. I also think there is a good trend in releasing a game digitally which is a demo until you enter the unlock code (Mount and Blade springs to mind as a good example of this).
There is another side to the whole piracy thing when dealing with movies. When you buy a DVD you always these days get the anti-piracy message which accuses pirates of "robbing artists of their rightful earnings". Well sorry but for me that isn't a good argument. Someone like Mel Gibson makes US$20Mill plus for making a movie. Thats for say 6 months work... Work... what a joke they play adult dress up.
Part of the problem, and he touches on it in that article, is that the modern interpretations of copyright(and Patent for that matter too) are outdated. The system is not really used to protect the intellectual property of the creator but to protect the share of the middlemen. Copyright is a farce in that respect in the digital age when you can make infinite copies for free.

I don't have any suggestions for a scenario topic. After the last contest though I did think it would be nice to have a "Peoples Choice" award. Once the official judging is done put all of the scenarios up on a page somewhere with a voting system.

I'm not talking about any gay named brand of any kind. I am talking about a custom box built with reliable components. All prebuilt desktops and laptops will at some point use the cheapest components they can buy.

As someone who has built computers for 28 years I can tell you do not waste your money on Dell or HP both are generic shit. Laptops are always a rip off if you want performance. Your best bet is to have a custom tower built by someone who will let you specify the parts to build it from.

T-34 vs Tiger is an Utter POS... its full of bugs and uses a hit-point system.
Steel fury is very nice if you can get over it being sp only.

IMO, I'd say that's a .2 Thomas, and only because they're Luftwaffe, not SS. If they were SS, they'd rank at least a .61. And just out of curiosity, what's my reading on the Thomas scale? Due to my ignoring feature being active, it may take multiple assessments.
While it would be difficult to measure your absolute gheyness based on a single post it is possible to calculate a certain amount of it.
Speaking with absolute authority about a subject you self demonstrate you know nothing about. 5 Tinky-Winkys
While its ambiguous whether they are SS or Wehrmacht they are certainly not Luftwaffe. Dead give aways tend to be the lack of "Herman Goering" Cuff titles and not having the collar patches of 3 eagles on a blue background are a dead giveaway.
Correctly realizing that you do indeed rate a Ghey value and dropping yourself in it whilst stating the fact. 2 Tinky-Winkys
So just based on your post we can postulate at least 0.7 Thomas.

A proposal for the Quantification of Ghey
The purpose of this document is to try and establish a standardised and quantifiable set of units for measuring and evaluating levels of Gheyness.
The proposed unit of gheyness is the Thomas and is an absolute scale. There is nothing gheyer than a Thomas (without ghey additions) therefore everything is measured as a value relative to a Thomas. As a sub unit it is proposed that we use the Tinky-Winky. 10 Tinky-Winkys make 1 Thomas. Items less than a Thomas can either be expressed in decimal Thomases for example Ghost is half as ghey as Thomas so would rate as either 0.5 Thomas or 5 Tinky-Winkys. Through Additions it is possible, but rare, to get gheyer than 1 Thomas. For example A tutu has an individual rating of 0.1 Thomas (1 Tinky-Winky). If Thomas were to wear said tutu this would indeed give you a number greater than 1 Thomas(1.1 Thomas to be precise). This can either be expressed as 1.1 Thomas or a Thomas and a Tinky-Winky.
Complex scenario's can in fact yield startlingly high Thomas numbers. As previously discussed Ghost rates 0.5 Thomas. Stalin & RogueSnake both rate 0.4 Thomas. If Ghost, Stalin and Dave were all wearing tutu's and holding hands (0.1 Thomas) the combined total would be a staggering 1.9 Thomas. If they were then to be placed in a room with Thomas the resulting gheyness would be almost off the charts.
If a value is less than a full Tinky-Winky it is better to express this in Thomases. For example a value of 0.45 Thomas could be expressed as 4.5 Tinky-Winkys. Although technically correct there is a possible contradiction. Half a Tinky-Winky (especially if obtained with an Axe) stops being ghey and is potentially quite humorous. It is better to express these fractional parts in relation to Thomas. Half a Thomas is still as ghey as a full Thomas, even if obtained with an axe(maybe minus a couple of Tinky-Winkys for lack of repeatability).
