  • No we have three Comps. Two desktops and one laptop. BUT only one connection to the Internet. While we've considered hooking up the one in her bedroom, I'm not sure whether I want her to have one in there. At least in the family room, we can control the usage a bit. (what little control you actually have over teenagers )

    • Understood and agreed. The one in my teen's room does not get Internet access either.

      But unless it's homework, I get first dibs.

        • You don't have to give up your internet to have kids - just lock them out of the house.

            That sounds better than what I usually say.

              I've just read the GL-Combat thread so I can see where I was going wrong. Serves me right for reading (and beliveing) the manual.

                  Hehe, I lost my manual 2 weeks after buying the game.......it worked out in my favour I think.

                              Thanks, good day to you, Sir Git.

                              rjmatsleepers, did you catch the bit about how the game uses integers, but in multiples of 8? That's the key - also, hit points are x10, giving you an order of magnitude more rounds for each battle.

                              Warrior vs warrior (both green) gives the attacker ~29% chance of success. Rah might be on to something, from the look of his initial runs...

                                I caught that and read the GL entry. I hadn't realised that the win rate was so low. I rarely attack unless I think my chances of winning are close to 90%
