Cyber Ranger: Pp coming?

Cyber Ranger: BRK or no?

Mechtron800: We can wait a few for him

Mechtron800: He usually gets home around now o'clock

Cyber Ranger: SMK/WHIZ, return...

Mechtron800: Let me call him

Mechtron800: So he's just getting out of work, he'd be home in about 37 minutes\

Mechtron800: That'd be a bit of a wait, but he'd be down to play a game

Mechtron800: Your call..

Cyber Ranger: Sorry - a bit too long for me...

Mechtron800: Copy, he'll understand

Round 6 of 12

Mechtron800: Another false burn

Cyber Ranger: Take it slow - purposeful; have a plan...

Cyber Ranger: Be ready to adjust - just before your turn...

Cyber Ranger: UNDERSTAND - YOUR OVERALL "SITUATION"...

Mechtron800: Thanks for the advice.. I have to be more careful with my spacebar, it's a literal hair trigger

Mechtron800: Mechanical keyboard with light resistance

Cyber Ranger: ...hover...

Mechtron800: How do you know I don't have lead thumbs?

Cyber Ranger: Wrong hand configuration; left-hand should be middle finger; right-hand on the arrows...

Round 7 of 12

Mechtron800: I use WASD for movement; and spacebar for my button. One hand required and I'm familar with the hand pattern from other games

Cyber Ranger: No idea what you just said...

Mechtron800: Take a look at the arrow keys layout. Then at the keys of W A S and D, note they're in the same configuration

Cyber Ranger: bot:events

LandruBOT: Event Time Line: (1) Acid Rain ~ (2) Acid Rain ~ (3) Earthquake ~ (4) Pests ~ (5) Acid Rain ~ (6) Radiation ~

Cyber Ranger: I use the arrow keys...

Mechtron800: So does my dad. I play all sorts of games on my computer that utilize the keyboard and mouse. With the right and occupied by the mouse, the only thing I can do is navigate with my left hand.

Mechtron800: Over the years, I've gotten used to it, and prefer them to the arrow keys, across all games.

Cyber Ranger: Try what I've suggested - in this game; it's more efficient...

Mechtron800: I wonder if I can change it in the middle of the game.. I'll test it quickly at the Summary screen

Cyber Ranger: It'll only work if your arrow keys are spaced wider than narrower...

Cyber Ranger: Unless your control is much better than mine...

Mechtron800: Which key do you use for your button

Cyber Ranger: SB

Mechtron800: Let's give it a shot

Mechtron800: r

Cyber Ranger: Middle-finger right hand for both up/down...

Cyber Ranger: r

Round 8 of 12

Cyber Ranger: run your test on other players' turn...

Mechtron800: It's completed

Cyber Ranger: ...follow their movements w/ your right hand...

Mechtron800: hmm

Mechtron800: I see

Cyber Ranger: "Better/worse/same"???

Cyber Ranger: LOL

Cyber Ranger: ...eye exam...

Mechtron800: It's been a long time since I've used the keys

Mechtron800: I'll give them a turn

Cyber Ranger: GL

Cyber Ranger: ...sweet...

Mechtron800: Not terrible, but it takes getting used to..

Cyber Ranger: More efficient - once you do...

Cyber Ranger: And - no dropped mules...

Cyber Ranger: Left-hand, middle finger...

Cyber Ranger: And - relaxed "stand-off" from the kb...

Round 9 of 12

Cyber Ranger: Are you a former soldier/sailor/airman/marine (god forbid)???

Cyber Ranger: SOB - I was looking forward to that...

Mechtron800: I am none of the above, but at the ripe age of 24, I'm considering it...

Cyber Ranger: A better career choice - than it was BEFORE the election...

Cyber Ranger: Good retirement/bennies...

Mechtron800: I more than agree

Mechtron800: Precisely, just afraid of going all the way for my team

Cyber Ranger: ...meaning???...

Mechtron800: I love my country, but I feel I'm a bit young to die for it.

Cyber Ranger: So was I - @ 18...

Mechtron800: But just as well, I don't want any other role in the Army

Mechtron800: Should I not feel too young?

Cyber Ranger: But - I made my peace with it, before taking the oath...

Mechtron800: I understand that, that's why I haven't signed anything, much less spoken to a recruiter

Cyber Ranger: NO - guys enlisted when they were 15-17 during WWII...

Round 10 of 12

Cyber Ranger: Talk to me - I'll guide you... 10 yrs Enlisted - the rest as an Officer...

Cyber Ranger: The "Ranger" in my name - is from the 2nd Ranger Battalion in the Army... Youngest ever to graduate from Ranger School...

Mechtron800: I like the idea of serving a set time, then retiring with pension, bennies, the works. I just

Mechtron800: I haven't built or done anything in my life that I've wanted to yet

Mechtron800: And I fear dying before any of those things can be realized

Mechtron800: Thank you for your service and the guidance on this

Cyber Ranger: OK, fine - I'll play ONE more game; w/ you and your bro...

Mechtron800: How did you know he just got home ???

Cyber Ranger: A guess...

Cyber Ranger: Thank you, and it's truly my pleasure - to help look out for our country...

Cyber Ranger: 29 yrs, 10 mo

Mechtron800: The job I have now is the longest I've held one, approx. 2 years

Mechtron800: Every other job I've left because I'd lose interest, or there'd be no growth/career path

Cyber Ranger: What is it?

Mechtron800: Merchandiser @ Pepsico

Cyber Ranger: Yeah, the Service will put that to shame - and give you the pride of accomplishment and LEADERSHIP...

Mechtron800: Soon to be promoted, if I choose to take the position, which I'm debating not, as I'll be getting a pay raise that would be comparable to the promotion

Cyber Ranger: IT'S A CHOICE...

Cyber Ranger: Any college?

Mechtron800: I don't doubt it.. I have some back issues that need to be worked out before I'd even have a chance of passing physical aptitude tests

Cyber Ranger: Service will pay for college...

Cyber Ranger: Goal-setting...

Mechtron800: I attended a year and a half of college, but didn't learn much.. professors that didn't speak english well, and blamed students for bad teaching practices

Mechtron800: I did well in a bunch of courses, others, retook multiple times..

Cyber Ranger: Regardless of institution - it's YOUR effort that matters, not the prof... First 2 yrs are the basics, anyway...

Mechtron800: I agree. I did what I could, study partners, labs, extra credit where applicable,

Cyber Ranger: If you decide to enlist - you'll either figure it out, or get out...

Mechtron800: That's what I'm worried about. If I get myself into a contract that I can't get out of

Cyber Ranger: If your TEAM is a team - they'll be there, regardless...

Mechtron800: No question, and I for them

Mechtron800: That part I like

Cyber Ranger: You can commit to whatever you agree to - not sure what's being offered now...

Mechtron800: I just don't like the idea of getting shot

Cyber Ranger: Who does?

Mechtron800: I can think of a few people..

Mechtron800: They're not right in the head, but that's beside the point

Cyber Ranger: But - plenty of Medal of Honor "Recipients", probably didn't either...

Mechtron800: Precisely... that'd be another story, injured bad and can't return

Cyber Ranger: ...living ones - too...

Mechtron800: After rewiring my brain for combat and all

Cyber Ranger: You don't "HAVE" to get shot, to do good things...

Mechtron800: But it seems like that's the path I should take

Cyber Ranger: It's more complicated than that - I can actually tell you about that part...

Cyber Ranger: I've led MEN in combat...

Cyber Ranger: Fresh out of High School...

Mechtron800: Sheesh

Cyber Ranger: In the Persian Gulf War...

Cyber Ranger: ...finish the game...

Cyber Ranger: r

Round 11 of 12

Cyber Ranger: Yeah - the meteor doesn't act like a high...

Mechtron800: I know but it's closer than the middle of no where to the other tite facilities

Cyber Ranger: The other high is under the store...

Round 12 of 12

Cyber Ranger: I was also a "Ranger Instructor" - for 3 1/2 yrs... 115 parachute jumps...

Mechtron800: That's insane!

Mechtron800: Ever have fear of a parachute failing?

Cyber Ranger: Nope...

Mechtron800: Ever have one fail?

Mechtron800: As in, needed a backup?

Cyber Ranger: You "lose" fear - over time, just trust in the training - and being able to "develop" any situation...
