Post subject: Cut Throat Computer Specifications Database Project
Top Reply with quote

I'm officially announcing the Cut Throat Computer Specifications Database Project. Nerdy!

Objectives:

1) Create a database of full hardware and software specifications of every active Cut Throat member.
2) The main purpose of this database is to have archived these specifications for the purposes of troubleshooting, recommended upgrades if desired, conflict resolution, and to find out where you get your porn from.
3) Added bonuses include getting a picture of the 'average' Cut Throat's computer to evaluate what games, as a whole, the Cut Throats can play.

Procedure:

The program used to evaluate specifications is Everest Engineering Edition 4.0, provided free courtesy of myself.

Please run Crap Cleaner or Empty Your Recycle Bin first.

*** PLEASE CLEAR YOUR BROWSER HISTORY ****
************ AND COOKIES *******************



1) Obtain Everest-4.zip from me on XFIRE (will be hosted soon)

2) Unzip the folder to anywhere convenient

3) Run Everest.exe (the one with the big letter i on fire)

4) Once the program is opened, marvel at what it can find about your comp

5) Press Report, hit Report Wizard

6) When the report wizard window comes up, press next
7) Select "All Pages" and press next

Cool For report format, select HTML and press Finish. THIS MAY TAKE A WHILE SO DON'T DO THIS WHILE PLAYING GAMES

9) The report thingy should start, a balloon should come up right above the taskbar. 104 processes should take place. There are a few small benchmarks so you might slow down a bit.

10) Once you're all done that, the report will generate. This will slow your shit down BIG TIME so let it do that.

11) When it's actually done, press save to file

12) Save in a convenient location as YOUR NAME IN CT (mine is, WangChung.htm for example). Please no spaces and no non-alphanumeric characters

13) Send me the .htm file over XFIRE

Thanks Very Happy

Privacy Policy:
I, Mike Stylianos, hereby swear by the law of the seven seas that I'll not use your data (not like there's anything in there) to blackmail, deceive, harm, or embarass (aside from laughing at how old your video card is) you or any Cut Throat member.

PLEASE clear your browser history! There are some things in there I'd rather you guys not see Smile

Also, if you want to be extra secure, open the HTM file before you send it and scan through it. Do a Find of a word like "porn", "ass", "tits", "cock", "sodomy" to be on the 'safe side'.

I hate it when computers have low-end DDR3 just to make it sound better, when in reality it's not. 800Mhz DDR2 is arguably just as fast as 1033 DDR3 because of DDR3's higher delay times. What it wins in herzes, it looses in latency. To see a difference, you'd have to buy at least 1300Mhz but preferably 1600. Basically it's paying more for no gain.

Ooooor - it's buying cheapest RAM for your motherboard that doesn't support DDR2. Congrats, you've earned another year of 'Uber Dick Wad'!

Messy Recipe:  deleted all the last couple years worth of bots & managed to preserve the two real people that have posted since then xD

so many DELETED spam posts now tho that I think I'll need to automate cleaning those moreso than i already have

Messy Recipe:  sry about the bots :( been busy & havent gotten round to doing the usual cleanup

need to prolly stick this behind cloudflare or something

Drunken Monkey:  doing well, been building a hobby ranch of my own, got married, no kids, only dogs, sheep and a horse

Comradekil:  so anyway, i wonder how everyone's lives all progressed.. who's in jail? who's grandparents now.. ha life
Drunken Monkey:  and yes....i do miss 1942 aswell, i honestly think it is what drove me to get a M1 garand in real live, and is still my most used rifle
Drunken Monkey:  bots are getting silly
Comradekil:  Sup dudes
Messy Recipe:  the BAR-1918 always felt so good in that game
Messy Recipe:  I miss vanilla 1942 as much as Pirates... need to see if the Origin version (or even original) still has anyone playing sometime
Stealth:  Hello all! Head to the lounge and post a memory!
Stealth:  I saw a BF1942 fraps video of a guy jumping out of a plane and RPG'd another plane. I immediately came here for nostalgia. Miss you all.
Messy Recipe:  I've not tried Sea of Thieves... kinda was bummed to learn its servers don't allow many simultaneous players. gimme 32v32 galleon fights
Messy Recipe:  oh gosh I really need to automate the spambot removal instead of making myself do it by hand don't I -.-
Drunken Monkey:  merry Christmas you lot
[BB]Piccolo:  Anybody playing Sea of Thieves?
[BB]Piccolo:  I'm amazed I actually still knew my login. We Black Buccaneers certainly had a special relationship with you Cut Throats. Nothing like a fierce rivalry to make the battlefield exciting, eh? :)
