The O' Club / Re: Unique Pet Names

Wife found a kitten at a parking lot and brought him home.  He eventually grew into a 15 pound cat and he was not fat at 15 pounds.  We asked our 4 year old twins to name him.  One said “Tiger” the other said “Popcorn”.  There was no compromise.  So Tigerpopcorn he became.  He generally went by his street name of “Tiger-P” because he didn’t want his friends to know his last name was “popcorn “.  He was a sensitive cat.

I picked up a mixed pup (border collie/beagle et al) 10 years ago from the side of a gravel county road near an artesian well. Named her Artesia and simplified it to “Tess”. She recently transitioned from being an outside to an inside dog, still tries her best to blend in with the couch and not be noticed to be put out lol.

Recently adopted a 4yr corgi/shepard mix from a shelter. He was already aptly named “Fox”. Both are pretty fierce guard dogs and we have to put them up with newcomers around, but Fox is particularly protective of my 4yr old daughter and loves laying up with us on the couch or bed.

Got an orange cat about 2yrs old now (came up to me as a kitten at my office). Named him “Grumman”, can’t imagine what would have influenced that name…
First cat I have ever had. Keep him outside roaming free and enclose him into a hutch at bedtime. Was hoping he’d be a good mouser as we live in a rural area, but pretty sure he’d just make friends with him. He loves hanging out with us when we are outside and being petted - not aloof at all.

I don't think so without code changes.

Currently all the guns aim at one spot.

in  terms of American football,  AH is wired for man-coverage vs zone-coverage.

Hitech can save the current state.  He usually does.
Ships spawn at their ports again, but base ownership, strat conditions, etc are preserved.

I might have misunderstood again, but his OP seemed to suggest that didn't happen.

Good to know that returning to the previous strat state should have been the normal case.

Oh I'm sorry.  I misunderstood.

Yeah.  Seems in a perfect world a Tour could reset without resetting the current map.  A bit tricky if a current cap cycle spans two tours.  You have to code for the case.

I can also see how it would be a lot simpler to just reset everything including the current map and starting fresh. 

Worthy of the Wishlist at least.  Oh I'm sorry, that was probably cruel.

Had a friend who named his dog Cod Dammit.
He said he named him that because when he went hunting everyone else would be yelling at their dogs "get back here cod dammit"
