Reading up on the graphics issues... i would assume those who cant alt-tab out without a problem, would be something to do with their Direct 3D Graphics and card... I found playing with the card settings caused the game graphics to go bonkers.. if i reload my GeForce drivers back to default the game is fine. Those guys having problems... youve not got any kind of add on or tweaked up stuff like anti-aliasing and other wird stuff enabled? Must be something along those lines... anyone got any comments on that?

Wyv, then you can do this...
(Wyvern's pic) What's more, I believe you could make the coding part of your signature, so as long as the site-reference to the pic stays, your image will be in all your posts (hmm...I may be creating a monster here...) Davros' post states it's 10 pm there at 9 am here, but I believe he's across the date-line, which means it's 13 hours into our (relative) future...~noon on Monday (so who won the election?). |

Just had to post the entire skit.... I'm amazed noone has already!!!
Long live Abbott and Costello! Who's On First (A Sketch by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello) LOU: I love baseball. When we get to St. Louis, will you tell me the guys' name on the team so when I go to see them in that St. Louis ballpark I'll be able to know those fellows? BUD: All right. But you know, strange as it may seem, they give ballplayers nowadays very peculiar names, nicknames, like "Dizzy Dean." Now on the St. Louis team we have Who's on first, What's on second and I Don't Know's on third -- LOU: That's what I want to find out. I want you to tell me the names of the fellows on the St. Louis team. BUD: I'm telling you. Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third -- LOU: You know the fellows' names? BUD: Yes. LOU: Well, then who's playing first? BUD: Yes. LOU: I mean the fellow's name on first base. BUD: Who. LOU: The fellow playin' first base for St. Louis. BUD: Who. LOU: The guy on first base. BUD: Who is on first. LOU: Well, what are you askin' me for? BUD: I'm not asking you -- I'm telling you. WHO IS ON FIRST! LOU: I'm asking you -- who's on first? BUD: That's the man's name! LOU: That's who's name? BUD: Yes. LOU: Well, go ahead and tell me. BUD: Who. LOU: The guy on first. BUD: Who. LOU: The first baseman. BUD: Who is on first. LOU: Have you got a first baseman on first? BUD: Certainly. LOU: Then who's playing first? BUD: Absolutely. LOU: (pause) When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money? BUD: Every dollar of it. And why not, the man's entitled to it. LOU: Who is? BUD: Yes. LOU: So who gets it? BUD: Why shouldn't he? Sometimes his wife comes down and collects it. LOU: Who's wife? BUD: Yes. After all the man earns it. LOU: Who does? BUD: Absolutely. LOU: Well all I'm trying to find out is what's the guys name on first base. BUD: Oh, no, no. What is on second base. LOU: I'm not asking you who's on second. BUD: Who's on first. LOU: That's what I'm trying to find out. BUD: Well, don't change the players around. LOU: I'm not changing nobody. BUD: Now, take it easy. LOU: What's the guy's name on first base? BUD: What's the guy's name on second base. LOU: I'm not askin' ya who's on second. BUD: Who's on first. LOU: I don't know. BUD: He's on third. We're not talking about him. LOU: How could I get on third base? BUD: You mentioned his name. LOU: If I mentioned the third baseman's name, who did I say is playing third? BUD: No, Who's playing first. LOU: Stay offa first, will ya? BUD: Well, what do you want me to do? LOU: Now what's the guy's name on first base? BUD: What's on second. LOU: I'm not asking ya who's on second. BUD: Who's on first. LOU: I don't know. BUD: He's on third. LOU: There I go back on third again. BUD: Well, I can't change their names. LOU: Say, will you please stay on third base? BUD: Please. Now what is it you want to know? LOU: What is the fellow's name on third base? BUD: What is the fellow's name on second base. LOU: I'm not askin' ya who's on second. BUD: Who's on first. LOU: I don't know. BUD: THIRD BASE! LOU: You got an outfield? BUD: Oh, sure. LOU: St. Louis has got a good outfield? BUD: Oh, absolutely. LOU: The left fielder's name? BUD: Why. LOU: I don't know, I just thought I'd ask. BUD: Well, I just thought I'd tell you. LOU: Then tell me who's playing left field. BUD: Who's playing first. LOU: Stay out of the infield! BUD: Don't mention any names out here. LOU: I want to know what's the fellow's name in left field? BUD: What is on second. LOU: I'm not askin' ya who's on second. BUD: Who is on first. LOU: I don't know. BUD & LOU: (together and calmly) Third base. LOU: And the left fielder's name? BUD: Why. LOU: Because. BUD: Oh he's center field. LOU: (whimpers) Center field. BUD: Yes. LOU: Wait a minute. You got a pitcher on this team? BUD: Wouldn't this be a fine team without a pitcher. LOU: I don't know. Tell me the pitcher's name. BUD: Tomorrow. LOU: You don't want to tell me today? BUD: I'm telling you, man. LOU: Then go ahead. BUD: Tomorrow. LOU: What time? BUD: What time what? LOU: What time tomorrow are you gonna tell me who's pitching? BUD: Now listen, Who is not pitching. Who is on -- LOU: I'LL BREAK YOUR ARM IF YOU SAY "WHO'S ON FIRST!" BUD: Then why come up here and ask? LOU: I want to know what's the pitcher's name. BUD: What's on second. LOU: I don't know. BUD & LOU: (VERY QUICKLY) THIRD BASE!! LOU: You gotta catcher? BUD: Yes. LOU: The catcher's name? BUD: Today. LOU: Today. And Tomorrow's pitching. BUD: Now you've got it. LOU: That's all. St. Louis has a couple of days on their team. BUD: Well, I can't help that. LOU: You know I'm a good catcher, too. BUD: I know that. LOU: I would like to play for the St. Louis team. BUD: Well I might arrange that. LOU: I would like to catch. Now I'm being a good catcher, Tomorrow's pitching on the team, and I'm catching. BUD: Yes. LOU: Tomorrow throws the ball and the guy up bunts the ball. BUD: Yes. LOU: Now when he bunts the ball -- me being a good catcher -- I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball and throw it to who? BUD: Now that's the first thing you've said right. LOU: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!! BUD: Well, that's all you have to do. LOU: Is to throw it to first base? BUD: Yes. LOU: Now who's got it? BUD: Naturally. LOU: Who has it? BUD: Naturally. LOU: Naturally. BUD: Naturally. LOU: OK. BUD: Now you've got it. LOU: I pick up the ball and I throw it to Naturally. BUD: No you don't, you throw the ball to first base. LOU: Then who gets it? BUD: Naturally. LOU: OK. BUD: All right. LOU: I throw the ball to Naturally. BUD: You don't. You throw it to Who. LOU: Naturally. BUD: Well, naturally. Say it that way. LOU: That's what I said. BUD: You did not. LOU: I said I'd throw the ball to Naturally. BUD: You don't. You throw it to Who. LOU: Naturally. BUD: Yes. LOU: So I throw the ball to first base and Naturally gets it. BUD: No. You throw the ball to first base -- LOU: Then who gets it? BUD: Naturally. LOU: That's what I'm saying. BUD: You're not saying that. LOU: I throw the ball to Naturally. BUD: You throw it to Who! LOU: Naturally. BUD: Naturally. Well say it that way. LOU: THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! BUD: Now don't get excited. LOU: Who's gettin' excited? I throw the the ball to first base -- BUD: Then Who gets it. LOU: (annoyed) HE BETTER GET IT! BUD: That's it. All right now, take it easy. LOU: Hrmmph. BUD: Hrmmph. LOU: Now I throw the ball to first base, whoever it is grabs the ball, so the guy runs to second. BUD: Uh-huh. LOU: Who picks up the ball and throws it to What. What throws it to I Don't Know. I Don't Know throws it back to Tomorrow -- a triple play. BUD: Yeah. It could be. LOU: Another guy gets up and it's a long fly ball to center. Why? I don't know, he's on third, and I don't give a darn. BUD: What did you say? LOU: I said "I don't give a darn." BUD: Oh, that's our shortstop! LOU: ABBOTT! |

Hi Wyv, What a happy thought! That would be too cool. I just wanted to pop up and say thanks for being you. I feel like I know you from this game and this board. You make it a bonding experience. I know when I see your signature on something, its going to be helpful or entertaining. LOVED those stories about the characters and the adventuring by all! I will be sorry when my game is finished. . . God bless you,
