Why would You be reported in Ops? That's petty... 

There'll always be stupid people, would You rather have no innovation or complexity just to fit all the idiots?

Happens often when topping the board. Without a word being typed in chat...

Today's greatest gaming achievement. Tipping a freshly opened 500ml can of Asahi Super Dry (tall boy beer) over on my 2016 Razer Black Widow Ultimate keyboard. Lotsa foam rushed up from under the keys... 

Spent 4 hours disassembling it and washing everything almost individually. Alcohol spray for the mainboard / switches, lightly brushed with a fresh paintbrush and air gun (carefully, so as not to force more into the switches) dried. Keys put in a bucket with laundry soap, washed, air gun dried individually. Careful checks made, everything put back together and got it done 5 minutes after the 5 hour... update started.

Typing this is my test run for today I guess... The update won't be done until 11pm my time and, I'm old. Had a bad day... and will be better off going to bed. The good thing, the keys aren't sticking (yet) and I managed to get it all back together without breaking anything or losing any parts. I think.

Well at least your taste in beer is super commendable. Asahi Super Dry is an excellent beer (I drink it too!), but never ever make the mistake of trying out the 0.0 version. The taste is something I would describe as identical to the taste of the water used to rinse a women's perfume bottle.

Nice!!!

Someone needs to restart Mouse's "Throne of Skulls" thread from the WG NA boards, for when you manage to kill a celebrity.

Psst. I sank Flamu. Well, maybe it was many years ago and he wasn't as famous or as skilled back then.

PS. Is 'per se' two words or one word? Not sure...

It's a nice term, I use it frequently because it conveys a precise meaning and it's exactly the same in múltiple languages so it is an easy 'bridge' to use. Beyond that, I like its ancestral root ... These words have been around for a long long time, unchanged. Phoneticaly It's like watching a dinosaur stroll next to You on a highway!

Some of us are willing to keep "dead" languages, and fictional languages, alive.  🙂 

I imagine that @OldSchoolGaming_Youtube spelled it the way one would pronounce the phrase "per say".

It's trivia like this that helps us all to educate each other, eh?  🙂

My greatest gaming achievement this week is finally getting enough oil to complete my clan's coal structure. Only too 7 months almost entirely solo to do it. This is why I have 2 accounts. I normally grind it all out daily on my main and play enough for the first 2 daily crates on the alt - but often do get all 3. The signal flags in the event pass help a lot too. And playing up to 40 games for naval battles does a lot as well.

Now begins the slog to complete the steel structure. Only need 120,000 oil. Got 800 already since Monday evening.

 

ps. It takes a while with 6 members, of which I am 2 of them.

Very nice battle on Dutch cruiser "Johan de Witt" with more than 2000 BXP and being the only ship that received a medal. Killed "my big brother Gouden Leew" with bombs and well aimed AP - salvos. Airship escort mode.

What is the Comodoro again? Is that one of those Pan American brawling BB's? Also how did it look/fight?
