[quote] All in favor of changing schod's name to schodTheGrinch, say I [/quote] Shush, don't give him ANOTHER name change idea. He changes his name too much as it is. [quote] flak isnt about the shrapnel, its about the small burst that shreds armor, the explosion NOT the metal. [/quote] Since when did you become so observative :LOL:

These arent really noob questions, but then again I dont know that much about modding.
Never really know what Babylon was all about. A linky I say, a linky for my kingdom :D
[quote] Anteknor [/quote] Antorak :) Oh, and dont forget the return of the Dark Fleet or whatever, whoo negative cap!!! @Spazzykid: Play a few more games with both races, and get to the late or mid game with both of them. You'll start to see the differances. Oh and the key is to experiment, and the experiment some more. There are dozen of strategies for both races, and this is just from the standpoint of Beta 4.
Meh, I do agree feeling some boredom when I play, the fact that it takes so long and gets repetitive in longer games turns me off. Still, i'm waiting patiently for the release.
Show me your two dozen, list their names. And then tell me how many have actually played online, how many have actually contributed something to this community and made more then two posts in the entirety of their existance here(besides a post in this thread pleading to join, or praising you for your unoriginal idea). Do that, and beat Schem, and I will leave this thread to its boringness.
[quote] The point is that Schem said he could crush our entire clan single handedly. Sure, we'll never know since we can ONLY fit 9 opponents in a game versus Schem at any one time. But even with a reduced number of opponents, I still somehow doubt Schem will do as well as he claims. Of course, at this point Schem will make a weak joke about how it takes 9 of us to beat him, even though he just said he could beat ALL of us at once, let alone nine. Tell you what Schem, we all know TheGre
We do, but first, some tea! And maybe biscuts. I do love biscuts. Where is Multi when I need him...
Rigid unfunidness?
[quote] TGE if you want to continue debating points with me, fine, at least you know what you're getting at instead of stringing together generic two cent insults and repeating the same old nonsensicle crap. [/quote] Aww.. a compliment. :) Now see, it doesn't kill you to be nice :D Actually I'm quite content, and very tired right now. Maybe some other time. May I remind you we have a clan to dissemble ;)
[quote] The Pink Space Ponies are still alive and well (like the Knights Templar) and remember that the reason for it’s' existence was to be a fuzzy warm front for the (EVIL) Galactic empire. Its membership is to be kept secret as members of the PSP are ALL members of other clans and the PSP only come out to kick the butts of upstart clans after the release of Sins is out of beta! Being that the only person who is to know the "real" membership of the PSP is the Emperor of The Galactic Empire Cla
But is that AI in your clan. No I didnt think so :P
Which isn't alligned with you :P Good luck getting them to join.
[quote] this is irrelevant, as you're talking about upbringing. we're talking about when you're already smart or not. [/quote] No, I'm not. I'm talking about correlations between being rich and being smart. Rich = generically better IQ scores. Its not upbringing, cause as far as I know people don't stop learning or eating after they are 18 years of age. [quote] this isn't relevant because we've never brought it up. we dont have any data regarding it. [/quote] What? and
That was the best scrubs refrances ever!!!
[quote] If TGE is on your team, you'll need a miracle. [/quote] To not beat you? Don't worry, the Ponie Gods will take pity on your souls as your corpses are fed to our Eet clones :)
[quote] so CEOs are smarter than nuclear physcisists? owners of small buisnesses than mathematicians? farmers than high school teachers? no, you've got the correlation backwards, more education implies a probable increase in income, but an increase in money implies near to nothing about the person. [/quote] They aren't scholastic aptitude tests, they are just aptitude tests and IQ tests. And what i'm talking about is people in the upper middle class and higher. Its true, e
I agree with schem. God Thrawn, thanks for ruining the game for me :(
[quote] there are plenty of books on the subject, but the thing is that they almost all admit taht the correlation works from intelligence => pocketbook, but not pocketbook => intelligence. they are mutually exclusive correlations. [/quote]\ Actually its the other way around that I was talking about richer = smarter. At least as far as IQ tests go, and most other aptitude tests.
Oh yes, we all know how annoying screw ups are. :) Come Schem, we have better things to do.
*bites rons hand* I R TROLL!! I TOOK PET AS ACT OF W4R!!!
[quote] Yes, there is a trend. But it isn't an accurate measurement. [/quote] I bet to differ, are you saying IQ test don't measure intelligence and that most of the surveys used for the government don't process the information of the general populace well? [quote] TGE there is a minor trend backwards, but let me ask you who earns more, Scientists or the owner of a small but successful restaurant? the correlation is minimal, its certainly not helpful for the extremes, how smart
Pfftt... whats so good about this clan. If you really wanna be manly and awesome join something else (ps. This message is not to be serious) (pss. Or is it?) (psss. I like cookies)
[quote] have I pointed out that what we're arguing about is pointless anyway? You cannot judge education accurately through income. not to mention a decade is a lot of time for new people to enter the economy, and old people to leave it. [/quote] Actually thats false. Many studies and IQ surveys have returned with very positive results. People with more money are indeed more intelligent and have a better education. As for the arguement of old people leaving and new people comin
