Title: Toad, today is surrender day..

The ONLY reason to go was to enforce UN SC 1441, destroying Iraq's WMD capabiliites. This has not, as yet, been validated.


So Toad... Lets mark today as surrender day..  I don't see any high ranking Iraqi generals left around to authorize surrender so let's just declare it now.

You've got one month from today to find those massive piles of weaponized destructions (mass) ...not a couple buckets of bug spray..

Otherwise I win wager (and debate) and you pay 45$ to Ronald Mcdonald house..

Ah... no.

Today is "liberation of downtown Baghdad day."

Coalition leadership has repeatedly stated more fighting lies ahead, particularly in Tikrit and Mosul, SH's homeground. In fact, they're saying all of Baghdad is not secure as yet.

So, hold your horses, son.

Beyond that it's 3 months you agreed to. See the thread I booted up to review the bet you made.

Thanks.

He heeeee,  I think 10 is worried as he wants to change the rules now:)   Get'em Toad, hold him to the original bet!

Toad is right as the entire north needs to be subdued before you can even start to think about the end of the war!

Much military work to be done,much!

Yeah, he knows he's full of crap.  He's now hoping to just run out the clock to get at least a technical victory.

Ronald McDonald is a poor cause...  Ask them for a yearly audit....  Bet they dont give you one.. (maybe if you pull their teeth you might get one.)

Most supposed help groups are sham...

I help people directly..  when i see a homeless asking for money i dont give it to him or her, instead i buy them food.  

45 bucks can buy a whole crapload of fruit and bread and a box of vitamins....  

Thats money well spent noone skimming the coffers either...


just a suggestion... not meant to hijack...

Arguing over chemical genocide before the war is over is good.

Il-2 Forgotten Battles has 109 E engine and prop models that are interesting… simulating enough I’d say 93% of AH players would shat themselves, burn their powerplants immediately on takeoff,  and hope HiTech keeps to the “Game” plan of AH Classic, or even AH2, regardless.

Discuss…

hmmm, I doubt it will take 3 months to stomp Syria into the ground, then dig up Iraq's WMD there.

Post by: Toad on April 09, 2003, 02:10:18 PM
Actually it was a wager. 10 believed Iraq had no WMD and I believe they did. Genocide did not enter into it. I think even 10 realizes that SH ordered a lot of genocidal executions by chemical means.

As for the other... yah, I play online ACM games just so I can fiddle with the mixture. That is so.... so....  whatever it is.

Will start with comments from the top:

Toad: stand corrected.. 3 months.. you got 3 months.

Oz, Naw.. a couple of snipers and a sucider or two up north. That's it.

Airhead, Ronald McDonald house is the charity for that org. They only have 8% overhead so it's one of the better charitys.

BTW I heard somewhere you made up that bit about hitting your head in the bunjie jumping accident. Is that true?

John.. Bet is for three months.. I wanted him to be specific. Didn't want this to drag on for no 7-10 months.. He agreed to it. Gators didn't eat you yet?

Wab.. waaa what's up with you?.. I'm very careful not to critisize your other work.. yo, back off.. If you want to engage in political debate follow a certain protocal and loose the name calling.

Doctor Yo, I respectfully disagree. I been contributing to RMH for years and check all charities from time to time to see what their overhead %s are. RMH is still one of the best.

Your confusing prop pitch with mixture… lol, old jetjock. Maybe Laz can explain gears and effects on engine ratio’s, temp, and performance.

This is starting out way to sweet.…

So, you think you don't adjust mixture as part of engine management? Particulary after the takeoff/climbout phase that you just mentioned as a particularly dangerous time when the poor dopes of AH would "burn their powerplants immediately after takeoff"?

Ever read the mixture management for even the PT-19?

Or doesn't IL feature mixture management as part of their complex engine management programming?

Enjoy, Creamo. To each their own.

Why do people keep donating money to the Ronald McDonald house? Why does a clown need such a big house anyway?

I completely disagree Creamo, the PDW is not the super-weapon in Raven Shield the way it was in Rogue Spear.  The G-36K is like the CAR-15 of the original Rainbow Six though.  Regardless, the new dispersion and reticle system has brought back the importance off the 3 round burst, though for a different reason than why it was the preferred fire mode before.

10Bears:

Well, I'd think Baghdad Univerisity is a place we'd want to look for documents, scientists and other leads to Iraq's WMD.

In the past few hours, the Marines have engaged in a hot firefight at the University.

Further, Mosul and Tikrit, two of the bigger cities in SH's homeground have no Coalition presence at all and these are places that he might well store WMD, given the reported loyalty to the regime. We're still flying sorties against those towns too, so I'd say the conflict still rages.

There's no way "hostilities have ceased". So, clock isn't ticking yet.

Anyway, why worry? If they have none, they have none, right? So you'll win whenever the clock starts.

Relax a while.
