Did the news inform him of an accident that would have been avoided if he had turned the light on earlier?

Did the man work in a light house?

Is that fact that he turned the light on important?

Would the outcome have been the same if he watched the news of the TV?

Has it got anything to do with who read the news?

I can't speak or the other EMs but I am more than happy for anyone to cover Top Gun when I am not around. I will generally let players know in advance if it is running or I cannot make it, so you will have some warning if my event needs cover.

Please meet in Arena from 20:45 for [SIZE=4]start time of 21:00 Server Time[/SIZE]

(Use "/time" command to discover what the current Server Time is)

Hope to see you there.

As there were not enough CSF to make the idea of an ASF/CSF TDM possible, a normal TDM was held and the results are as follows:

Team 1
Captain: TRF_Lucy 12/19
DbrDbr 14/39
BG_Corynthos 17/23
SFP_Mellon 5/20
BG_Spiky 24/7 - Most Kills

Total 72/108

Team 2
Captain: PX_Black Arrow 24/16 - Most Kills
NonFactor01 11/39
DC_Drakon 8/20
DC_Blade 24/15 - Most Kills
PX_Darco 6/3 (only took part in the final 10 minutes or so)

Total 73/93

I opted for most kills being the deciding factor but Team 2 would have won either way.

Many Thanx to Gunny who sponcered the event most generously so that the winning team split $80mil, the losers got $40mil and each of the top scorers got $10mil.

Thanx to all for taking part.

Hope to see you there and sorry for the late announcement

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.
John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot.
The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.
In desperation, John threw up his hands, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behaviour."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behaviour, when the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

I have been known to play a little poker from time to time. Honestly, I am more of a fan of live games than online but I am still interested.

Raven - on PartyPoker I am Carcharoth1, though I don't play there often. Most of the time I am on PokerStars as Bfiik.
