This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

What do you all during the few hours of the day you spend away from TLR? Myself, I'm in retail. Clock retail.

Guys, there's this thing called a "life". It's usually not classified by crapping away days on web forums.

Two words and a very worrying hobby:
Energy Weapons.

So far i have a practical design for a semi-portable heavy massdriver (300km/s potential projectile speed, .50 calibre), a flamethrower (Powered by standard household spraycans), and a targeted EMF weapon (Matter transparent heatray, thats only speculation at the moment)
No, i dont have ANY of these weapons yet. the Massdriver is my current project, and will be more like a weapons emplacement than a rifle, the flamethrower is a stupid idea, and the heatray is a juryrigged microwave that probably wont see the light of day...

In all seriousness... Nexus gaming, MSN, movies, quantum physics (Again, energy weapons), Warhammer 40k, Battlefleet gothic, RYOC (My own personal version, the term uber has never been overused so much...), and not too much else...

trying to find a job in order to finance driving lessons with the aim of buying a car so i can do the job thats waiting for me.

ff - anyone who is over 21 and has held a license for 3 yrs (I think it is) can take you out and give you a lesson - as long as you have got a provisional license, insurance etc. It certainly helps having someone get you past the real basics of clutch control, moving the car, steering in a straight line, changing gears, starting on a slope etc. All of this takes practice, and to be honest - a pro instructor isn't going to make it happen any faster at all.

Having a first lesson when you can already drive the car (or move it) without them talking you through the process will save quite a bit of cash!

Parents, mates - any will do - and it is "legal" I think to do it in a car park (as long as its private land you can drive on it - although you should check this out before bombing round tesco's carpark in your mates cars!)

School, and one with lots of work at that.

Also, Wilde, I see something odd here:

You have about 1700-1800 posts to my 1200 and have been here 9 months less. Hmm...

@Eh_Steve
Q: How can you tell Americans invented the internet?
A: All irony is lost upon it.

I'm not making gross generalisations so save your righteous indignation. I'm just pointing out the Wilde seemed to be speaking ironically from where I'm standing.

Oh, and on topic:

Good point. Still, I don't spend that long on here. Most of the time it says I'm online I've just not closed the web browser and I'm not at the comp.

ok Wilde I'll believe you, thousands wouldn't!

don't you live in Canadia? well that explains it, on those cold arctic nights beyond Moosejaw with nothing but your pet caribou for company, interwebbing with people from warmer exotic countries in the temperate zone must be quite addictive. just imagine, temperatures above freezing! getting around in *cars* not on sleds pulled by huskies, living in *houses* not igloos; well, its like another world isnt it?

I have a quiet life on Freeport 9. It's kinda boring but it works...
