    @ wbelac: Welcome. Lurk all you like. If you order some food and drink from the autosystem, once in a while, we'll know you are still about. Just sort of think out loud and the system will prepare and present anything you can think of.


    @hym: You have no idea how tempted I was to post that on some of the sites I attend, but I refrained.


    @ Compromise: Double container of chocolate milk shake appears with a chilled one litre glass. Enjoy. Interviewing was always tough, especially if you don't have a resume.


    @zmveliger: OK. Be aware that I put a copy of my avatar (one frame) in all my BATs that I publish. Not very many because I disagree with the scaling needed. Making something stretched to fit the sprites in the game is a nuisance.


    @MsD: The autobar serves a boilermaker. [A shot of Bushmills and a Harp Ale. Remember that the system reads your mind. If you are underage, you will find the alcohol missing.

    @N_O_Body: When is the next BAT release on the STEX? I suggest a large moose sign to put in front of the bar. I can send you a larger version of the sign if you're interested.

    Be careful, a hunter might shoot in your neighborhood...

    zmveliger, I don't think any hunters would shoot a 7-foot alien living in a city.
     
    BTW, I went fishing this summer and caught two Big One That Got Away stories.  Actually, I don't know that they were big fish; I got two bites but I was never able to reel them in.8.gif15.gif

    Hi everybody! I've been promotted officially in the Simtropolis Help Squad. I have to keep fatherly eye on the newbies. They are so helpless...

    @hym: you understood that getting a big story is more important than catching a big fish. And yes, I have another sign for you.

    <ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//fish.gif align=baseline>
    We don't have a danger road side (yellow diamond) for fish or alien. They are not irritating drivers enough to earn that reward.
     
    Bye.

    @zmveliger: BAT release? You mean am I going to update the Moose Factory lot? Probably not for a while because it needs fixing for the sprite height, which I forgot to fix, and the textures need adjustment. However, I already have a moosehead texture taken from my avatar which is all over the model. There is one in a frame on the door and if you look through the windows, you'll see the rug is tessellated with the same texture. I am busy learning to use Adobe Illustrator with a view to making a better texture, but this is something I am doing in the background. I am retired, but I seem to have many fish to fry. Doorman? We don't have one. We depend on the list moderators to keep the riff-raff in line. By the way, you didn't need to double post. You can edit your own posts. I see you got hired by compromise for the Simtropolis Help Squad. Be gentle. Many of them only know how to turn a computer on.


    @ MsD: Autosystem default breakfast with chocolate milk: Two eggs over easy, 3 strips crisp bacon, home fries, brown toast with orange marmelade, coffee, and a glass of chocolate llama milk. Enjoy our all-day breakfast.


    @ hym: Please do not include images in a quote except as a reference (link). Alien? Got a picture?

    OK, I'll drop the pictures.

    N_O_Body: My picture is the guy in the avatar.  That's me (I was referring to myself in the previous mention of the alien in the city).  I'm the unofficial ST alien liason (between you and me, I'm trying to hint something to the admins22.gif9.gif).  Actually, I'm not trying to imply anything but if I got a custom member label, that is what I would kinda like it to be.

    ^ Somehow, I think you'll need more posts and more activity. What other lists do you work in?

    Date: 10/6/2005 8:02:41 PM Author: hym Right now I just kind of float around on ST, posting where I see a need.&nbsp; Going to see about becoming part of the ST Help Squad, though.

    some how I think you gona have to be more active, not to get a costum label but just to gett read of that dump Local Yokel thing ....
    I also spotted Compromise here... and you know... asking for a label in front of mods fase wont gett you anywhere...
    but if you do join the SHS and gonna be one of the more active mambers around here, you'l probebly gett the 'Contributer' ......
    anyway.... good luck with your label hunt....
     
     
    hmmm..... Im not hungry or anything.......
    you now what??
    I'l take some cola with rocks......

    Hi everybody and N_O_Body, I'm back for a few minutes29.gif.

    @N_O_Body: I never though of changing the look of the Bar's BAT released. By reading the comments on the STEX, I knew trying to convince you to do so would have been a waste of time14.gif. No, the idea is to create another lot, completely independent, one we can put near the bar (or somewhere else). It could be a 1x1 park or LM with a big moose sign on it so it can act like a billboard for the bar. For the moose frame in the BAT, it's not very obvious. I'll try to keep my promise in a more obvious way. O.K.?
     
    @MsD: well, the definition of newbie is quite fluid. From a certain perspective, I'm still one of them! BTW, chocolate milk is a good choice for starters but when you'll be as old than I am (!), stout might be your choice3.gif.
     
    @hym: to help you on your label quest, I have... obviously a sign for you. No! I have 2 of them. Which one do you prefer?
    Danger-alien2.gifDanger-alien.gif
     
    These are not official signs in my province yet but I'll hire a lobbyist to get the government accept them.
     
    Cheers 39.gif

    was watching an episode of Star Trek, TNG. it was an episode where Riker became second in command on a Klingon ship as part of an exchange program in season two. Therein, he was tasting several Klingon dishes, to get used to the taste...and you know, some of them looked pretty darned good!
    i guess in a roundabout way, i am asking for whatever random unpronouncable Klingon dish your replicators can fire up - preferably something which is not moving to start off.

    @vidioman : if hunters were shooting each other, it means than in a few years their should be not a single left47.gif.

    No, there'd still be the Canadian ones. Besides, 300 million Americans, there's no way every single one of them would get shot in hunting accidents3.gif
     
     
    I might have good news sometime in the next month. Hopefully.2.gif

    Wow! Lots of action today. You fellows are a gas. I have been interviewing a Klingon to see what cuisine can be eaten by humans. We'll try.


    @MsD: Be careful with that bar stool. Are you sure you are OK to drive it? It will stand up if you speak nicely to it. ghargh is also served to you.


    @gggg: Cola on the rocks materializes in a nice tall glass. English lesson: now is pronounced n-ah-o-w and means presently, you were lookiing for know. Keep working, your written English is getting better.


    @zmveliger: Well, if you are going to BAT for us, we'll look forward to seeing the results. Hit a homer. Cute signs.


    @ legodude121: The appropriate chowder is served in its traditional manner. Is that white or red? Enjoy.


    @ MrCinatit: The autosystem produces a serving of ghargh. Be careful, they bite back.


    @ vidioman: Yes, we know, Canadian hunters only shoot cows. Just remember, no noose is good noose.

    N_O_Body: Sorry to announce you that the release of my BAT planned for the Xth of October will be postponed to the X+7th of October. Me too I have the 1.5 scale factor problem...

    About cow hunters, I have nothing to say except that targets are not missing when United Staters kill our export market...

    She walks through the door and heads straight for the bar.  Mumbling somthing about being a squatter, she orders a shot and a bear.

    Slamming back the shot, the bar stool creaks then colapses.

    Well, I think I am old enough not to have illusions, but if such a thing happened, all we have to do is back-up into the muskeg and wait for spring.

    If they want to live along the great lakes, good luck to them. If the black flies don't carry them off, the mosquitos will, or failing that, the Commonweath of Nations a.k.a. The British Empire.

    So what are the zukes up to besides fixing bar stools?
     
    BTW, could I get a hot chocolate with marshmallows on top?
