Hi i was trying to apply to the BWC forms but your anti bot measure wont let me. Correct me if i am wrong but if you put up a math question such as 15 - 8 + 1 = then the answer is 6. It which it says is incorrect.

15-8+1 = 8.

you're trying to work with the order of operations when there isn't one. addition and subtraction are on the same level of presidence.

I'm looking forward to the next Trail, though hopefully I'll be keeping my position by beating the rest off with a heavy stick ;0).

ok then i guess my math must have gotten worse over the years cause i was just trying to total up the numbers in my head and then subtract them. The only thing i can think of is if this was supposed to be an integer.

General mathematical practice when the operators are all the same is to read them left to right and solve each portion. So 15-8=7, and 7+1=8. What you did would look like this: 15-(8+1) = 6.

Maybe, but there'll be a lot of positions to fill.

Waiting for a game to release sucks...

My boredom has sunk me to such a low point that I find this entertaining...



I'd also like to go ahead and say that if clan mechs ever do become available, I call the Mad Nyan Cat.

[Graives]

I disown you now Kazzen.

Disown me before you ever owning me? Thats like reaching into the future of the future. Like a dream within a dream man. Thats some inception **** right there.

[Curon Hifor]

Eh, I could take it or leave it.

Still humorous though.

[Dork]

I lol'd a little.

I've been having the same problem. One can only browse the forums for so long now that they have gone so flat...

[Firefly]

The forums are round. Not flat. C01um13u5 proved this when he trolled around the world.

[Andrew X]

I wonder if that user name is taken?

That hurt my eyes and my brain figuring that out. I hate those effed up user names...about as far as I can go is 13lack Rain's...that wasn't hard. I'm a knuckle dragging truckie at heart.

[Graives]

Kazzen, it was just never meant to be.

Rhys, I disown you too. Damned Nyan fanboiz!

Professor Firefly has spoken!

And Yuba seems to have the perfect life.

Did I miss anything??

Ahem, I am not a nyan fanboi. I was just stating that my boredom level had exceded my rationality level to such a point that I found Nyan Cat to be quality entertainment. That is untill my levels balanced out again and now my shame meter is in the red for ever laughing at it.

[Graives]

This is good Kazzen! Admitting it is half the battle! I'm proud of you!

(In case anyone is misunderstanding, we're all just farting around here. No one is being srs bzns at all, eh.)

[The Outlaw Kazzen]

Having been an eye witness on some of BWC's inner operations, I have aquired video evidence of what BWC members do on their off time...

[Graives]

LMFAO!

Awe Kazzen, I can't stay mad at you. Come here you big Outlaw you!
