Bought a new shotgun

[The mysterious Mr. 4m]

Told you. People got touchy by all the war stuff and terrorism (and media) in the last few years. Btw, throwing knives or axes is more fun, IMO. (Love that "thump" or "thud" sound! One word: watermelons...)

I believe that the problems in America arose from the hate attitude from the rivalling gangs and the whole slavery story. America (and Japan) still have this strong competitive mentality.

I think everybody should team up. Look at the Open Source community! There is more and more free software that can compete with commercial products! On the comparison there are alot of commercial projects that became obsolete because the developer simply died! We should all team up against the extraterrestrials ! ...

wtf? 87 !?!

That like raw oil.. i run on 98..

This leads to some of the differences in cars. The Koenigsegg CCR gave 806bhp but couldn't run on weak fuel so couldn't be sold in the US. The CCX is quoted as having the same 806bhp but that's running on 91 RON as you might find in the US, allowing it to be sold in the US. If however you run it on 95 RON as is normal across much of Europe, you'll get 850bhp and on bioethanol 900bhp.

Car companies have produced lower power versions for sale on the US market simply because they can't be arsed tuning for such low RON ratings. For instance, the BMW Z3 M had 322bhp across Europe but only 240bhp in the US version.

That makes total sense too, lower octane ignites on lower pressure, and a turbo,.. well.. preassure XD

actually you can't tune a car for lower RON without loosing power.
If you got less RON you have to take down compression to prevent self ignitionof the fuel.
efficienncy of internal combustion engines is dependend on compression.
so: less compression -> less HP
(thats all things else equal of course)

Guns? o.O
I think this is not really a "gun", but I can help with my katana (1metre long, a real katana, no industrial crap) and a Hatchet, a bigger one ...... and my dad has a 365' magnum

[C.Brutail]

That shotty can easily rip off your half head from 25 metres... Wadja do with your sword, my dear padawan...?

[tChr]

The mauser will do than from 2000 meters

[Urmel]

The mauser will do than from 2000 meters

What a silly crap. My Nexgun will vapourize your dumb self by 8 miles distance

[esteel]

Do not be too sure.. all the guns, even the nexgun, in Nexuiz have a maximum range of 32768qu
I'm just too lazy to calculate what this would be in km.

[C.Brutail]

<CuBe0wL> feh convert 32768qu
<feh> 32768qu is defined as 1248.4608 m.

So the mauser won
