I know you are great at Timed Races on VC ( :lol:

), but I am still baffled by that Intermediate time. My Intermediate Minesweeper is 16 X 16 blocks with 40 mines. Is that the same as yours? If it is the same, then I am in absolute awe from looking at you're times!

Yup, my times for Beginner, Intermediate and Expert are for the built in levels for Minesweeper.

Beginner = 9x9 with 10 mines
Intermediate = 16x16 with 40 mines
Expert = 16x30 with 99 mines

Practice, Deli Dingo, that's what it takes.

I was about to say this thread has gone way off topic, but then I realised it was the off topic thread, d'oh! I might give a few of those a crack later on.

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 21, 2004

Haha, same here Blake. I used to play Minesweeper heaps. I was pretty good at it for a while.

Those games don't get my interest anymore, though.

Deli Dingo · Oct 22, 2004

Sorry about doubting your scores in the beginning, KM. I probably won't be playing much anymore though, because I'm trying to improve my VC stats a little before SA comes out. Did you see my times on the Chopper Checkpoints? I might have another go at them tonight. Screw sleep!!

I must be retarted or something, cause ive never been able to figure out that game. :indiff:

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 22, 2004

If you just don't play it, because you can't figure it out straight away, then that's the problem.

R32GTST/M · Oct 22, 2004

yeah meh oh well. Rmember that new GTA game yeah i think ill just play that when it somes out he he!

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 22, 2004

Yeah, lol.

I know I'm going to be obsessed with San Andreas for at least 2 1/2 years. Most likely 3 years.

All of the people that think because I keep up with the information all the time will ruin my game are completely and utterly wrong.

Deli Dingo · Oct 22, 2004

You must have a lot of time on your hands, Jimmy! Good for you! 👍

Me on the other hand, I only have about 8 months before I go to one of the U.S. Military Academies. I won't be able to nor have the time to play any video games for 4 years! But when I get out, I swear I'll be a gamer til I die!! :trouble:

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 22, 2004

Good for you, Deli. Good luck with the Military.

I don't usually have a lot of time on my hands, but I go on the internet as much as I can when I'm at home, and when I'm on the internet, it means I'm on GTP. Also, I don't usually play alot of PS2, only either when Blake's here (or I'm at Blake's house), I'm bored or I gotta check something.

R32GTST/M · Oct 22, 2004

yeah same i only come on here for maybe and hour after work and maybe an hour at nite and i only play Ps2 about 2-3 nites a week for an hour some times ive got too much on and don't play much at all. But that will change when SA comes along ill be a recluse! with no social life and my friends and g/f will forget what i look like lol!

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 22, 2004

I'll still manage to find time to get out to parties, etc. I did with Vice Citym and I played that a hell of a lot.

R32GTST/M · Oct 22, 2004

oh yeah definately! i was just joking lol

Blake · Oct 22, 2004

I'll do everything else, but I think schoolwork will be replaced by SA :lol:

...well most of it...

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 22, 2004

Yeah same here. But, to be honest, I'm not overly serious about school. I mean, don't get me wrong, I try, I don't purposely screw up or anything, it's just that I have different career goals, and I rather enjoy school instead of wasting it trying to be a Grade A student when I don't need to be.

My parents (mostly my Mother) share the same feelings. They said it's up to me to go which way I want. So, San Andreas > Homework = Any day of the week.

R32GTST/M · Oct 23, 2004

Jimmy Enslashay
San Andreas > Homework = Any day of the week.

And thats how it should be he he!

Deli Dingo · Oct 24, 2004

^ Agreed ^

I just thought of something: Has anybody actually stolen a Police Maverick? Not the one parked on the station, but the one that flys around when you get at least three stars. I've never tried, but it seems like it be hard to do. I'm just wondering if it's even possible. :boggled:

I don't think its possible. whats wrong with the parked one?

Deli Dingo · Oct 24, 2004

Nothing's wrong with the parked one, I just wanted to know if I could throw a Police officer out of a helicopter.

I doubt it's possible. In fact, I'm sure it's not. For one, they can fly through buildings, and I think they can fly through you. Secondly, they don't fly low enough, and you can't jack things in mid-air. Thirdly, seeing that it's a Police vehicle, the doors would be locked.

Deli Dingo · Oct 24, 2004

Good point(s).

Small_Fryz · Oct 24, 2004

i second your opion jimmy as its impossbile to get to, to even try to jack it. I dont think it even gets low enough to steal.

R32GTST/M · Oct 24, 2004

all in all a bit of a dumb question, even in a SA discussion thread.

Blake · Oct 24, 2004

You can't steal the (flying) Police Mavericks on VC (for the reasons Jimmy pointed out).

If you're not trying to keep up with SA don't read below this.

I think it may be possible on SA. And before anyone replies saying the doors would be locked, you could probably get in through the side bits where the SWAT people shoot from.

This is "The Official Off Topic GTA Thread", and I was just starting a conversation. Can I do that? :scared:

Jimmy Enslashay · Oct 24, 2004

Yes. It's Off-Topic. You can talk about anything except San Andreas (for now) and Driv3r.

Also, that's a valid point Blake. I still don't think it can be done.
