Three, but everyone was only allowed to use one.

Come one, it's would be kind of stupid to try to cheat when there are a handful of people in the room.

There are stories of LAN tourneys where people still tried to pull a fast one........usually with extreme consequences for them and their machine. They may be apocryphal, but I wouldn't like to say for sure - all true gamers hate cheats.

I can't imagine that anyone still playing this game after all these years would bother to cheat .

I agree Hydey...

And it really would have been stupid to try to cheat in one of our games that weekend, especially with the fourth guy who couldn't play wandering from machine to machine to see how everybody was doing

So now that the Two-Timers have met War4 did you gain any clues as to why he didn't post his photo in Rah's photos thread...??

No... as can be proven by his success with the women, he's not ugly at all... just the opposite. I would assume because he has such LOW QUALITY TECHNOLOGY, he couldn't post for that reason

War4, just attach the photo to an email and I'll post it for you

Or can't Canadians do that?

I believe it's
1. no digital camera
2. no scanner
This kind of limits his options.

Unfortunately I kept forgetting to bring mine over to Ming's that week so we have none from that adventure.
But, maybe that's a good thing.

Her's is more like a digital cam corder that can take single frame shots as well... not like a simple camera. Plus, I don't have the software on my machine to use the output.

Given how much Mrs Ming liked War4, she'd probably happily give him her camera and her computer.
