What does it mean!?

Pending (pehn-DING) adj. - To await settlement or a decision.

I hope that helps you understand what pending means.

Fascinating. Based on what we know so far, there are two beta profile statuses:

- Rejected
- Pending

I assume there is at least one more status, highlighted in green:

- Accepted

Want.

In the event you meant to say "What does 'it' mean?", then:

It (IHT) pnoun. - Used to refer to a thing previously mentioned or easily identified.

So apparently the whole static.mwomercs.com is old news, but meh, it's new to me. Anyone get anywhere with it? Below is a quick directory listing of the whole thing, or at least all you can see with the basic access permissions. But all of the files come up blank.

Does it say "Pending"? If it does.. there's nothing for you to do, but wait.

They keep using that word, I don't think it means what they think it means.

Maybe they should at some point add a, "not this round maybe next round" option?
or just ignore it and set callendars for maximum July 17? Make it so number two.

No, I haven't even had a chance to download the specs program and paste them in. Basically I check the checkbox and nothing...

Crap. mine says "Rejected". I knew i should have filled out that profile information. No matter, July isn't very far away.


Really? That's odd, but I guess if you did not fill out the profile info it makes sense.

Sorry to hear that man..

1) Your hobbies. - Wanting to play mechwarrior online, hitting F5
2) Your ability to solve a Rubik's Cube. - I suck at these.
3) If you can beat Paul at Ms. Pac Man. - No, but I can beat you at Galaga
4) Batman or Superman.. who is better? - Batman is a better superhero by far. His archenemies are much more complex and sophisticated with a better setting and story. Superman is just a constant "gotta save louis lane" or "oh no, my opponent has kryptonite, argghh". Batman wins.
5) Most hot ladies on your Facebook profile. - I have a couple.... ; )

then you may not be able to submit yourself for the beta. I don't KNOW that, but only going on the probabilities.

Oh I am positive, I will be piloting a friggen giant robot on July 17th. I would be more than happy to be piloting a friggen giant robot before then, but I know I will be piloting a giant friggen robot soon. Ah.... inside smiles.

I have missed my giant friggen robots, one of my first computer games was Mechwarrior the EGA release, and still one of the truest to the table top releases.

Oh ya!!! That dates me.
