    What's with this puny 32gb of ram @Buttcleft ? 64 is where its at. You also forgot the sli 980 cards.

    @Handgimp hope it is the psu. You have a way to check or just buying one hoping it was that?

    I almost got on to play with you hydro, but ran out of free time. Hopefully tomorrow or this weekend I will have some time to play. I really need the distraction.

    he could always stick a paperclip in the 24 pin connector (Between green and any black iirc) and see if it powers on fans or anything, or of its kaput.

    Well, tonight on one of the teams we played with, we had an ac/5 locust. Finally figured out how to do it:LCT-1V(AC5!!!!!)
    and for completeness ac2 version:LCT-1V(AC/2!!!)
    Super tempted to try it and see. It's cheep enough really at like 3.6 million.

    I know not of such things since I have used testers or tons of replacement parts.

    @Vanderbrent now I have an urge to make an insane locust now.

    Basically I've been itching to build a new rig for a while, but this one's still too stout to justify it - but the psu is kinda a pos. So I bought a new case and psu, and I'll fire it up. If it works, great. If not, move on to sexy times.

    Oooh and I'm not sure a fan test would tell me anything useful, I'm worried about power fluctuations on the 12v rail. I guess I could borrow a scope from work...

    Has anyone been able to make the executioner work? The mounts feel so awkward. So far I've been fiddling with 6x ML and a large ballistic but it just feels so meh.

    why is no one playing on this fine thursday evening?

    Computer asploded. I think it was the power supply, in which case I'll be back up on Monday or Tuesday. Otherwise probably a week while I decided on a new build.

    corei7 k processor with 32gig ram and 4x500gb SSDs in raid

    Why would you want to RAID 500gb SSDs?

    Assuming they're reasonable quality, I don't think the trade off in risk would be worth the very small return (is there any return?)...

    Otherwise, you're missing out on the Quad SLI Titans.

    I need an invite to [IOSK] stat! Asap! Whatever word makes you push paper the fastest. ;)

    Edit: Maybe I should join a more active unit, now that I think about it. As much as I love you guys, it seems like almost none of you play much anymore. This makes me sad. :(

    Unfortunately, I'm halfway to the middle of nowhere for camping this weekend. :( So if you still want an IOSK invite, one of the other guys will have to send it.

    I'll be back to civilization on Sunday.

    Resist the call of the clans, come to 1stH. We own 1-2 of the (3? lol) FRR planets left, Awesomes, Catapults, drop commanders that get angry at people for not listening, people who don't listen to the drop commanders, LRM night and unit logos I made at work while procrastinating

    I ran with your 1st Hussar Remnants this past weekend and have to say it was great having a cohesive group of CW guys to run with. I managed to get my best CW scores ever, and made me think of doing more CW just because of that.

    @Konphujun pretty sure @Stabbity Style is still an IOSK active and can fire you an invite.

    So, we're back to collision detection sucking hard. I'm taking PPC hits from the front that strike my rear armor.

    Guessing this is also the source of the "instagibbed by pinpoint damage" complaints I've seen.

    I was in 3d mode today when i saw two PPCs sail off to my left. About 1.5 seconds later my left Torso imploded.

    I've been dying from losses of back armor from people infront of me shooting the front of me for so long that its gone beyond funny to just depressed indifference.

    It takes about 15 minutes or so for them to show up. You'll get a popup in game listing the mechs and the mechbays and any applicable bonuses.

    When I buy a mastery pack, I find doing a quick normal drop can force it to refresh if need be. Restarting your client could also work, but that doesn't have the net gain of shooting robits in the meantime. For the record, though, I've never paid for anything in the game, received a receipt and not gotten my mechs/mastery pack/premium time/whatever.

    King Crabs basically have a helipad for a..top? and that helipad is almost entirely CT.

    same on the front too.

    They'd need like..+90 structure AND armor to make up for how obscene it is. Its like, the size of an entire awesome. the former posterboy for obscene CTs.
