That would explain the strange messages that were coming up and the slow load times.  I do see the pages are loading faster too.

That means I have to actually work on/build new a computer for Mark.  I think his system hates him from all the rebooting it does.    I'm not willing to reuse anything at this point but the case and the drives I think.

I believe that Washington was a 5 Star general, I've never heard of a 6 star unless you made it up...

I loved watching Doctor Who as a kid.  I couldn't tell you the names of the episodes as I wasn't really paying attention to them at the time.  I loved the story arc that was the key of time, I think that was Tom Baker but I'm not sure.  I also enjoyed the entire interaction between the doctor and UNIT.

As for the new version, I enjoyed the first season, I need to get around to watching the second season before I get too far behind...damn, I just realized I have to watch most of season 2 of BSG and I want to watch my DVDs of Heroes before the season premier.  I have a lot of TV to watch in the next few weeks.  Guess no sleep for me.

I think Christopher Eccleston did a great job of playing all the quirkiness of the Doctor.  I can't say anything for the other Doctor yet.  I do like Rose so far as his companion.  She keeps him well grounded.

I've been tempted to go into Best Buy and thank the Geek Squad for all the work they our way.  Oh, I work with Thrakath or was it that he works with me.  I can't think of how that goes.

Oh well, long live geek squad to send us more work in tech support land!

My name is Tim and I'm a gamer.  Most of my friends think I'm nuts that I game 4 days a week.  I think it's having a healthy social life.

I spend most of my Saturdays with Jovis, Shay21, and Thrakath.  I know Drewcifer and Raistlin but I don't get to see them much since they aren't in the games with the rest.

I play mostly D&D now.  I've been gaming for about 24 years or so.  I've played everything from Paranoia and Justifiers to Shadowrun and Cyberpunk.  Catch you all around.

I love spell point systems.  I've always looked for a way to make it truly work without making higher level mages much more powerful.  I love the idea of researching the spell and being able to modify it on the fly as needed.

I agree that combat spells will be fairly easy to incorporate, as for non-combats, let's see.  Maybe go with a base cost depending on what level the spell is, the number of people it effects, the range, what effect you are going for, if it effects objects, and things of that nature.  I'll be more then happy to help out in whatever way I can Jovis.

I know it will be a lot of work but I think it can be done.  I know that you could also use a system like the old Ars Magica, they used forms and arts of something like that were you power was based on combining an art and a form to get a magical effect.  Like if you wanted a fireball for instance, you would add Creao (sp?) and Ignas.  You could use that to determine the maximum spell/caster level the person can reach.  It also allows for specialization.
