General UO Chat / Throwing spot for training.
« on: December 19, 2012, 06:32:56 PM »
I know that there is a spot where you can train throwing from in the abyss targeting the slimes but I do not know where to stand.  Does anyone know and can you provide the spot or a picture?  I will go again and see if I can find it but any help is lovely.

Home Entertainment PCs / Tv's?
« on: October 04, 2012, 06:56:56 AM »
I'm in the process of getting a new TV and would like to poll the forum to see what other people are using.  I am replacing a older rear projection 59" Toshiba with some similar sized plasma or LED/LCD unit.  I've been looking at the samsung or panasonic units.  I'd like to get something mid-range which does a good job at playing black colors as my older unit is having issues doing such lately.

Any ideas in the $1,500 -2K range?

Home Entertainment PCs / The rest of your stuff.
« on: September 25, 2012, 09:15:46 AM »
With all the hype over the HEPC's I was wanting to know what everyone was rocking for the rest of the set up and how these PC's are being intergrated into those.  Are you running these as the processor for your 5.1/7.1/2.1 speakers?  What amps?  Are these able to run blue ray players? TV's or screens with projectors?

I'd like to rebuild my home theater at some point as my TV is getting older and it could do with a revamp so this area is nifty to read up on.

Jokes! / Irish Whales
« on: September 17, 2012, 05:57:25 AM »
A man was in a pub one Saturday night, drank quite a few, and noticed two very large women by the bar. They both had pretty strong accents, so he asked, "Hey, are you two ladies from Ireland?"

One of them snapped back saying, "It's WALES, you friggin' idiot!"

So, the man immediately apologizes and says, "I'm sorry. Are you two whales from Ireland?"

That's pretty much the last thing he remembered.

Jokes! / Gay Rooster
« on: September 10, 2012, 06:18:39 AM »
A farmer goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, "OK old fart, time for you to retire."

The old rooster replies, "Come on, surely you cannot handle ALL of these chickens. Look what it has done to me. Can't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?"

The young rooster says, "Beat it! You are washed up and I am taking over."

The old rooster says, "I tell you what, young stud. I will race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop."

The young rooster laughs, "You know you don't stand a chance old man, so just to be fair I will give you a head start."

The old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off running after him. They round the front porch of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap. He is already about 5 inches behind the old rooster and gaining fast.

The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by. He grabs up his shotgun and BOOM!

He blows the young rooster to bits.

The farmer sadly shakes his head and says, "Dang it... third gay rooster I bought this month."

UO-Related Tutorials / Cora
« on: September 08, 2012, 08:38:23 PM »
So I'm on an attempt to restart UO since PVP seemed to greatly fall off on my main shard and my intrest in UO dropped.

CORA:  http://www.uoguide.com/Cora

The latest patch said that there was an increase to the drop rate on this "champ" for the covetous artis http://www.uoguide.com/Artifacts_(Covetous) to 30% for each kill so off I went.

Method:  Sampire plus songweaving bard running peacemaking songs http://www.scriptuo.com/index.php?topic=7942.0

Pre mark a run on the top stairs as the run into the place in tram or fel is annoying and will cause death at times ruining the adventure.

Before running down the stairs invis your samp and bard.  Bring up honor and make sure you honor it as it takes for ever if you forget.  Have your samp on the other side of the wall like the pic and then you should be able to get the bard spells plus the bard should be albe to cast disco from this side aswell.

Once you are set up it's mostly afk from here till the end when she starts walking around and you have to follow her a bit.  I'm running a normal samp with 120 parry and 100 healing to do this.  She has a new mana leech such that you will not be able to get a AI or any other special so you just have to grind her down.

Since the patch I've done it three times getting two drops of the tundra bow but the glasses are clearly the prize though the blade would be a ok pvp weapon.

I also made a new weapon for her since I could not use mana leech so I added 40% mana drain which stratics people say helps to reduce her mana, I'm not 100% sure I  get hit with less spells but it might work.

GL.

Jokes! / Blind Pilots
« on: September 06, 2012, 06:30:52 AM »
One day at a busy airport, the passengers on a commercial airliner are seated, waiting for the cockpit crew to show up so they can get under way. The pilot and co pilot finally appear in the rear of the plane, and begin walking up to the cockpit through the center aisle. Both appear to be blind. The pilot is using a white cane, bumping into passengers right and left as he stumbles down the aisle, and the co pilot is using a guide dog. Both have their eyes covered with huge sunglasses.

At first the passengers do not react; thinking that it must be some sort of practical joke. However, after a few minutes the engines start spooling up and the airplane starts moving down the runway. The passengers look at each other with some uneasiness, whispering among themselves and looking desperately to the stewardesses for reassurance.

Then the airplane starts accelerating rapidly and people begin panicking. Some passengers are praying, and as the plane gets closer and closer to the end of the runway, the voices are becoming more and more hysterical.

Finally, when the airplane has less than 20 feet of runway left, there is a sudden change in the pitch of the shouts as everyone screams at once, and at the very last moment the airplane lifts off and is airborne.

Up in the cockpit, the co pilot breathes a sigh of relief and turns to the Captain: "You know, one of these days the passengers aren't going to scream, and we're gonna get killed!"

Off Topic / Vacation House Rental sites recommened by SUO members
« on: February 05, 2012, 05:16:45 PM »
I was reading 12x's comment about renting a house over a hotel room and wanted to start a thread to throw sites which members have used and can recommend.  I've used http://www.cottages4you.co.uk/ staying in suite number 25680 last year and in July we will stay in W42612 for a few weeks.

I was thinking more for a vacation as, IMO, once you have rented a house or the like for a vacation a hotel seems like a rip off if you plan on touring.  Disney, mexico etc or something like that might be the exception.  

I gave a edit to the subject to define it better.

Receipes / Making the house smell like christmas
« on: December 07, 2011, 08:40:53 PM »
So the wife has been slowly letting a pot of water simmer away to add a bit of humidity to our dry air and she decided to add some Christmas cheer:

1 large pot of boiling water reduced heat to a very slight simmering
add spice such as:
cinnamon
nutmeg
ground cloves
all spice
slice or two of orange or lemon

Makes the house smell like yum and will add some nice atmosphere to the festive season.

UO Reference Information / Simple Sampire Luck suit for Shame
« on: December 04, 2011, 11:02:25 AM »
Well its not super simple due to the ring and brac but this is a decent direction for anyone to follow.  I've had to drop my slower swinging axe for a much faster Katana with HLD and no SSI due to the greatly reduced stat mods I lost.
