MegaUpload has been shut down by the US FBI.
WTF WHY
They hosted copyrighted content.
GODDAMMIT SOPA PASSED!?
Nope. It's still not been passed, but it's not buried yet. They had been building the case for two years, apparently, and allegedly timed the shut down to take place after the internet blackout. Although Anonymous went a bit mad afterwards, and shut down a bunch of US Government and Media Corporation websites, such as the Department of Justice, Recording Industry Association of America, and Universal Media Group.

I would definitely lose the Lightning Spikes and Beater Bars. The VS weaponry's going to knock your opponent away before it gets a chance to hit them. I'd personally get rid of them, and try to get some better weaponry on the VS.

I actually did have a dart rebound off of the wire when I was playing at my local pub during my gran's birthday. Scared the <expletive> out of my sister.

I'll get one up soon, if I can get a little bit of time to myself.

Can you decide which colour your car is? I thought you just got whatever it was with all the sponsors and such. Or is this in GeneRally?

That works in DSL, less so in Stock. Planning helps a heck of a lot, I've found, just so you don't waste time finding out something doesn't fit here, or if it takes you over the weight limit.

Maybe because it's hard to use all the weight available, and use it well. What I do is plan out the setup and everything, add up all the component weights, and see if I have a reasonable amount of weight left over for the chassis. Then it's time to try and put it into action. =) It works rather well most of the time.

Coming along very nicely by the looks of things. I take it the other long rounded parts go on either side once the wheels are on?

It wasn't so much that the names were shown, it was more that the names were incorrect. We had voted for a few days, and once Dream Theater had pulled out a bit of a lead, Hard Bot jumped in and said "o wait that song is mine". He'd been lurking the thread for a while, and only made his voice clear once his song was winning. After that happened, and Jonzu corrected it, there was a huge backlash about it all, which resulted in Dream Theater only coming second, IIRC. Much debate was had, and we came to the conclusion that it would be better in future if the names remained hidden until voting had ceased.

The only avatar I seem to remember from when I joined is JoeBlo's one of Bender making a boat out of the "No Boating" sign.

I will enter in the Fiat 500 Abarth R3, please. =) I only noticed the one in the S2000 division beforehand.

Fantastic. Reminds me of You Ruined It from NQRW2 a little bit. I do like the design a lot, but the weapons don't intersect each other at all, do they?

Not necessarily. This is good for getting plots. NFX should get a few ideas from it - I certainly have
Possibly. I need to make another one of those soon. Hopefully I can turn out some ideas. =)

I would go for poly extenders, personally, and you need another 2 ants in this. If you can, try dropping to Tite 1, and perhaps lightening up the skirt hinge wedges. I'd use just the one skirt hinge in the middle, with angled skirts as opposed to straight ones.

Looking fantastic there. Reminds me of Rick a little bit. Quite an odd skin, though.

« on: January 17, 2012, 02:45:31 PM »
That's not a glitch, that's just a part of the game mechanics. You can raise components to mount them higher in the chassis, if needs be, such as with Baseplate Anchors to attach motors on top of the chassis.

I'm kind of alright with it, personally. It was bound to happen sooner or later. Will anything be lost in the transition, such as threads or images?
