Hi.
I would just like to say thanks to all the work you're putting into this.
Cheers!

Di Canio swinging the axe:

Wonder how much money i'd made on betting 100€ for 7-0 total lol...
-
Hahaha...
Di Matteo sacked.
Jesus christ, they are gonna run out of managers to employ if they keep up this rate.

Haha, missed the whole Euros thread here... Damn.
Anyways, silly season going on and i guess the hottest topic atm is Thiago Silva/Zlatan to PSG. It shall be intresting to find out how the financial fair play rules will end up... So many teams out there that i would say are out of the Europa/Champions league if you were to follow what the rules say.
And Van Persie.. Who knows where that'll end up.
My football abstinence is put down by viewing fussball from south america. Got the channel that shows the Brasilian Serie A, so that's nice. Some games are a bit shit tho, to be honest.

0 points here. Thought i might have accumelated a point over the years, tho i guess i've never trolled or made too crazy replies, just strong views i guess.
I shall get more active!

Not cheap being a Marseille fan: http://boutique.om.net/fr_nv_fiche__Maillot-OM-Third-2012-2013-642171.html
150, god damn.
Had a look at what Everton's home kit costs at the moment, 25£. Altho it's 11/12.

Montpellier won Ligue 1, 13th largest budget in the league. Altho i fear PSG will dominate Ligue 1 during the next few years, so it was nice that they didn't win.
CL final was quite ok. I 'supported' Bayern, i don't see a reason to support another British team (well, a team with like 3 brits in it) and also, i'm soft for Germany and German football. Bayern really need to work on corners, free-kicks etc, their statistics in that is horrendous. Not at all surprised that Chelsea won tho. They can still do this one-off match.
But most of all, happy that it wasn't an El Classico final. Because those two teams, there's no other way in putting it, they will dominate Europe so much for the foreseeable future. Because of their crazy tv income and other perks.
I'll keep on rolling, supporting two teams with crap economy, Hammarby and Everton, which are actually similar in many ways hehe.
I don't expect much activity by Everton in the summer, maybe if they find a pound under a rug somewhere, some player might join, but i'd have no idea who he'd be. Very thankful for Jelavic tho.
Oh and, even tho my hobby team in Serie A is Lazio, i'll admit it's nice to see Juventus back in the champions league.

Hah, some sort of justice with Arsenal 3 - 3 Norwich. Canaries should have had a penalty in the first half, and perhaps another one too. The shirt-pull was the most obvious one. And also with Van Persie in the closing minutes, altho it was offside as the replay showed.
Wolves tomorrow, should be 3 points. And a nice finish to the season with hopefully ending above Pool in the table =)
Also wow, i haven't really been on this forum much since winter lol.

Ugh, the guy is younger than me. Was really horrible to watch.

I don't want to describe just how awful this song is, but it's being played on every local commercial radio station I listen to and it's currently #2 on the UK Singles Charts. I'm told it went down pretty well in Canada last year. How people can stand listening to this trash, let alone buy it download a pirated copy of it, is beyond me.
Sounds like any other song that most people like. Generic stuff. I've heard a lot of more horrible music. I'd rather hear that song than listen to any metal-core stuff, ugh! But it would be more interesting to hear her voice naturally than computerized.

I'm annoyed on myself. I wonder why i watch Sunday Supplement on Sky every Sunday morning.
1: It seems to be the same type of topics every time, and the same teams every time. Yes, Chelsea is a bigger team than Norwich, but why not talk about how well Norwich is doing for once?
2: They seem to hate Italian football and Capello.
3: According to them, no one can make a controlled tackle. And tackling should basically be abolished, it seems.
4: They talked about Ronaldo being apparently being unhappy the last time, and if he comes available on the market for 40-50m £ and not "silly money" they pondered whether Man U would re-buy him or not. 50m quid is not silly money? *facepalm*

Fantastically boring game tonight, except for the cat.
Oh well, Everton story continues... Win against the worlds richest club, and the next time draw against the club who's last.
I think Darron will prove to be a good buy. One of the best shots in the league, 'we' need that. Will be interesting to see how the new guy from Rangers fairs.
Chelsea next weekend, and i predict 6-0 to Everton.

Just touching on what DV said, I just learned about the single core problem myself. Apparently, the multi core support is coded and in the game, but its currently disabled until they finish testing it or whatnot. I also don't think their in a hurry, because they feel a lot more limited by memory constraints than processor (probably something to do with the default memory usage cap that Java has). Multicores seem to be able to mitigate it a bit by moving all the java overhead onto the other cores. Here's to hoping they release their announced fix sooner rather than later.
Aha i see. I guess i'm supposed to focus on the game and not doing other things as well, which takes cpu usage.
But at least i know the issue now.
It's not just the game that freezes, it's the computer too. But i did try and run it alone - full window (no video, not nothing on my 2nd screen), and so far no problems. But it good to know it's not on my end that the problem is at least.
Thanks!

Why not get a decent psu when you are going for a decent setup in all other areas?

Hi.
I hope this is the correct place for this question.
I've recently begun playing RS after a while out, and i have been getting some unsual lag.
I have tried Firefox, Chrome and IE, but i still get the same thing. My hardware isn't the problem, it's an C2D [email protected], 4gb and a ATI 4670. I have looked at the activity, but none have been 100%.
When i have it in 'full' windowed mode, it sometimes lag. But when i have it in a smaller window it flows perfect. I have also tried different Java versions, but nothing happening.
I do not get this sort of lag on any other games that i play.
Two pictures to explain:
Lagging randomly.

Free from lag.

Any ideas or suggestions? I always do other stuff while online on RS, so fullscreen is no option.
Thanks.

Champions League Draw:
Lyon v APOEL Nicosia
Napoli v Chelsea
AC Milan v Arsenal
Basel v Bayern Munich
Bayer Leverkusen v Barcelona
CSKA Moscow v Real Madrid
Zenit St Petersburg v Benfica
Marseille v Inter Milan
Europa League Draw:
Porto v Manchester City
Ajax v Manchester United
Lokomotiv Moscow v Athletic Bilbao
Salzburg v Metallist Kharkiv
Stoke v Valencia
Rubin Kazan v Olympiakos
AZ Alkmaar v Anderlecht
Steaua Bucharest v Twente
Viktoria Plzen v Schalke
Wisla Krakow v Standard Liege
Braga v Besiktas
Udinese v PAOK Salonika
Trabzonspor v PSV Eindhoven
Hannover v Brugge
Legia Warsaw v Sporting Lisbon
Unsure about some of the pickings. And it's so far ahead, depends on form and injuries. Milan - Arsenal, Napoli - Chelsea, Zenit - Benfica and Marseille - Inter, feel like the most uncertain in CL.
Shakhtars exit was a really big surprise to me i have to say.
On another note, finally some good news from Everton with Donovan.

Eh, [bleep] em and do what you want is my view.
Preconceived notions of guys maybe being 'slobs' and all the rest of it if they have long hair.
I had long hair for several years (really long), but a couple of years ago i cut it off. I think it's more difficult getting certain jobs if you have long hair, than short. And for me personally, my hair was starting to thinning and slowly the hairline was moving backwards.

Relaxed Dungeoneering - A friends chat for DG
in Recruitment
Posted
Relaxed Dungeoneering
We are a non-rush Dungeoneering group with a focus on teamwork, communication and fun floors with a laid-back and friendly attitude.
We don't rush, suicide, leech, snipe, or rage-quit. We're efficient but take the time to make dungeons as fun as possible, so we have a dedicated skiller on every floor. We work as a team and share! We try to keep a balance between wasting our team-mates' time and being forgiving, because none of us are perfect.
Our floors average 25 minutes and include a dedicated skiller who creates armour, food, potions and other supplies for the entire team. Deaths are uncommon, so if you enjoy suiciding or doing fast floors then we might not be the place for you.
Our Motto:
'You are supposed to bank everything before entering a dungeon, that includes banking any differences you have with other team-mates. Let's work together and get 120 dg.'
(Dan TheMan, 120 DG'er)
Requirements:
- 70 Dungeoneering
- An attitude which reflects our groups values: laid back; efficient but fun; respect for others; sharing; pulling your own weight in a dungeon.
- In addition, we have some suggested requirements for filling the skiller role which can be found on our RSOF thread.
Guests:
You are welcome to guest our friends chat for as long as you want, however there are some restriction; guests can only join larges floors and form rushes/item hunts. Forming large floors (we don’t do medium) is restricted to smiley rank or higher.
How to become ranked:
It’s recommended to do a few floors first to see if you like our style and being familiar with how we do things.
We have an application form on our RSOF for those interested in being able form floors themselves.
Once you’ve applied you will need to do an intro floor with a member from the admin staff within 1 week.
After you have been smiley’d you have 4 weeks to get 3 recommendation for a permanent rank (at least 1 from admin staff is needed).
Pop in to our friends chat “relaxed dung” if you want to floor or if you have any questions!
QFC: 148-149-922-63982137
We hope to see you around and happy dungeoneering!
