Yes Hilly STILL is playing. He is not absent.
You guys ROCK!!!!
I did not know there was 5 individual reflective locations. I only remember the first one, where the intent was to shoot a laser there and back, from Earth, to measure the timeline for the return ping, and calculate the distance from the Earth with higher accuracy. THANKS for the second map too. Fabulous!!
Found this one today and it is incredible. The detail enhancement a huge upgrade. Surveyor Mission landing zones for Surveyor 3, 5, and 6 noted and mapped. Apollo 11, 12, 14 and 16 landing zones also noted. Crater impact, ranges and ejecta color coded. Ejecta blanket perimeter circled in black. Hope someone appreciates this map.

Does anyone remember which Apollo Mission placed the mirrors on the Moon surface to reflect back to Earth? The mirrors have been utilized quite frequently for distance measurments (ping of a different measurement than SiMPLE....) and oscillation of the Moon. I thought it was Apollo 11 but cannot remember..........
I was hoping to see it noted on the map.
So this old man is driving home from work one day when his wife calls him on the cell, while he is driving.
"Honey, I want you to be VERY careful driving home this evening. I just heard on the radio, there is a car, driving the WRONG way on the highway:.
He replied, "Hell they are ALL driving the wrong way".
Self explanatory.
Harry Nilsson, Badfinger days (1971?) said it best. "We both cant be wrong, I must be right".
Where I live in the USA, we have as of today, 20,156 cases confirmed in my small State. We also have 1,446 deaths. Our ratio sits at ROUGHLY 20:1
For percentage, that equates to 5% death rate here. Also roughly 17 times GREATER, then the aforementioned .3% This number also reflects this area HAS INDEED been participating in social distancing and masks. For someone to believe the measures taken have NOT reduced deaths, well then the Earth is INDEED FLAT and the Moon landings never happened and the Holocaust never happened. Reality is quite different than perception or belief.

pretty sad to see how most of you get uncomfortable, and cant handle it when somebody disagrees with you
youre almost all out of touch with reality and in heavy denial. you WANT to believe in this petty disease. as soon evidence shows that what you believe in is a big lie, you freak out
the coronavirus death rate is about 0.3 %. if 1000 humans get infected, around 3 will die from it. those most vulnerable are old men around age 80, with already existing serious diseases. healthy individuals below age 60 will almost certainly not die from it
around 450.000 die from influenza globally, annually. if we shut down planet earth each year, to stop the spread of that common flu, tens of thousands of those lives could be saved. but we have never done that anywhere, and we should not, since it would cause economical disaster
this worldwide corona panicky overreaction, will go down in history as one of the most pointless and dumbest self destructive actions ever
in five years, some of you might wake up and see how retarded this shutdown was, and how much destruction it caused compared to the small and insignificant flu-like disease called corona. its a completely unnecessary collective economic suicide
ruined economy and changed habits will cause more deaths in the near future, than the corona have. a small part of this will be that hospitals and healthcare sectors around the world will be degraded from poor finances, to such a degree that it will cause millions of deaths
bad global economy equals higher worldwide mortality, hundreds of thousands extra deaths, all not related to coronavirus
90+ % of earths population are followers, copiers, non-thinkers, mindless sheep without sense of proportions and no overview, easily influenced and manipulated by mass media
stay home, stay safe is the dumbest phrase ever. it shows how big cowards most people are, and how scared they are of diseases
nothing should have been shut down anywhere
you will all suffer the next 5+ years from the effects of global economy destroyed
everybody supporting nationwide / global shutdowns, are extremely selfish and guilty of mass murder
There are so many "wrongs" here, it is not even worth the amount of key strokes to correct.
around 450.000 die from influenza globally, annually. if we shut down planet earth each year, to stop the spread of that common flu, tens of thousands of those lives could be saved.
At least one is partially correct.
I honestly thought there would be an entire slew of conspiracies. Good thing I am not much of a betting man.
I will be curious how many will come in the near future. One of them, may end up being the truth. Keeping my ears open.
Sheeeeeet............FINALLY someone that might need more help than me.........
Yep I find the same problem as Goldie. I can never really play on the main server, way too laggy for me usually with 350 ping and even higher, even if it's only a 1/4 full. Usually kicked for high ping. :-( RtR- S/W server my ping is usually less, but still not good most of the time. Sad, as I love this game. :-(
Goldie wrote:more players-laggier it is... that's why i sometimes have hard time playing crowded servers
PASSES some "better ping" right at ya!! I usually run about 100 ping. I have some extra for you and I will still be able to play.
STILL have my "old" 1989 KDX (Kawasaki) I bought brand new. Runs well for its age, starts in 1 or 2 kicks every time. Added Boyesson Rad Valve, Quick twist throttle, high performance ignition, expansion chamber and a few other goodies. Have a set of Trelleborg tires for snow. Can keep up with some snowmobiles, if less than a foot of snow. Over a foot and sleds blow me away. Got a box-o-tacks (ICE tacks) for running on the ice. NOTHING in the world, equals the feeling of going into a corner at 25 miles per hour on the ice, at the apex, twisting the throttle and riding the rest of the turn with front wheel up, on the ice, completing the corner on rear wheel only. NOTHING like that feeling. Its an adrenaline rush for lovers!!!
We also spent our cash on Cam II fuel when riding Enduro runs. That was some expensive fuel. Today I just use 93 Octane.

GLAD you are back and feeling good enough for a full map!
Cheers brother!!!!
THANKS for the fun Goldie. Nice work on the vids!
You have some WEIRD sh** Sunshine.................
ew........................
lmAo!
LMAO Sunshine!!!!!!!
Might even put in a cheeky session later today to get my endorphins up there
You be EASY there big guy!!!! No marathon sessions just yet!
:-)
WELCOME HOME.
Written words by no means equates to truth.
Now I understand why this server is the most hated ... The server has a bad reputation because administrators are ignorant, defending their "friends" if someone accuses them of using hacks.
If one of the SiMPLE servers has you unhappy, one of the beauties here is there are MULTIPLE servers. You might play on each one, until you find your "nirvana" server. Your statement above, indicates you have likely not tried more than one. Give it a shot, with an OPEN mind, unless you are a troll. If trolling, there are MANY other servers you can attend. I believe we welcome all trolls, to other servers.(Preferably to your OWN server) As we should.

Sorry about that, go a bit stir crazy in a hospital bed and get carried away.
No Benny Hill nurses around to take my mind off things.
NOOOO apology needed off course. I giggled at that moment I read it and the picture painted,.....was real!
HAPPY you are being released and on the mend.
WAY TO KICK ASS Actor!!!! The Gold Medal is yours. Its been earned.
When completely healthy again, its OPEN bar for Actor. Top shelf only. On me.
Gotta tell you Snake, I have felt this for a number of years and it makes perfect sense to me too!
Glad at least one person, understood and recognized this.
Aint physics great???
:-)
OMG the picture you just painted in my minds eye..........
Thanks for your great wishes guys, it is appreciated.
Started the coronavirus treatment on 12 litres of oxygen per minute when I was admitted, did a spell on 8 litres and now they've taken me off the facemask and adjusted my oxygen to 4 litres. Only downside is it's delivered through that double nose pipe that's draped across your face.
I feel like the baddie from BB, just need a bell attached to my bed.I actually feel kinda bummed , I was furloughed and I'm there rubbing my hands with glee looking to gorge on 1942 for the next few weeks whilst getting paid.
Then I end up in an isolation ward.Or could it be a deep underground isolation bunker, all that equipment beeping and flashing, the Nazi doctors sweeping in and assessing me. Captured alongside Harry and Ginger whilst conducting covert operations we were immediately separated and I was brought here to be used as part of Operation Secret Weapons of WW11.
Zombie edition ☠I'll see you on the battlefield, and I'll be a lot harder to kill.
And I will not stay down.MUWAHAHA
We are fighting WITH you Actor!!!! And we also expect nothing less than you returning, in Coronakiller action when you are back. HAPPY to hear you absolutely have the "fight" in the mind going and positive outlook. You will have the mark of a soldier when you return. Battle hardened.
Seems all that "space/time continuum stuff from Samantha in SG1 has merit!

NO bad there. Just my mis-understanding.
I want to be sure to wish anyone sick, STRONG recovery and ass kicking fight! Dont give in.
Will add prayers in there too for anyone ill.
THANKS for clearing up.
Just my luck I've contracted Coronavirus.
Had the symptoms nearly two weeks ago, self isolated then my condition took a turn for the worse and I was rushed into hospital 7 days ago.
I'm in an isolation ward, first three days in ICU.
Had the blood tests, chest x-rays, ECG.
Needles stuck here, there and everywhere, hourly diagnosis checks throughout the day and night.
Been the worst experience of my life and a real wake up call. I'm not overweight by much but I don't exercise either.
Only 55 so this has been a real wakeup call for me.
I'm going to focus on getting my BMI in order when I'm released which doctor reckons could be Easter Sunday.
Wishing you all the strength to kick ass and fight this one Bad Actor! And Abas as well??
You make sure to return here and get some Corona revenge, in your game play!!!!
And return here STRONG.
@jorgen: We heard the same regarding blacks more susceptible, as well as overweight and "sickly" people, particularly low income sectors.
Then the theory came out regarding race targeting. However the ratio is pretty high among low income folks, (all races) when compared to blacks. The link seems to be in the food lifestyle (overweight from crap foods) and the lack of personal space distancing. Southern USA, where the "hillbillys" live and my home will be soon, high rates there and it is all white where we are moving. Just a poor area of the Nation.
@ Insane: That one is the most believable, and movies have been done based on that idea. And the most likely reason if it was indeed intended!
@bud: That explanation helped me a TON! Great video to educate a naive folk like me. I promise bud to check the dipstick!
I will stick my coffee cup out the window with you Arkos. If we do it at the same exact time, point the handle straight at you, using one eye to reduce paralax, rotate cup to exactly 33.476 degrees true North and then our cups will heat the contents. I watched buds video. I am smart now........
Thanks for the ideas and inputs. I expected a much bigger list of conspiracy ideas. I feel better about humanity now.
PipeR, the cold water and sharks, worries me MUCH less than cold water and peas................
Looking for something "GOOD" from the virus, or "people positive" at least. Here is one. I like his attitude.
One more,, showing that Trump has a stake in the Hydroxychloroquine business. (Down in the article, you will find that his "STAKE" is between $100.00 AND $1,500.00)
Does this have any conspiracy smells about it?

Huffington Post MUST be recognized for what they are. Vomit or excrement as a reporting agency.
But..........it SELLS newspapers......
Here is a typical Media report. (Trying to make a conspiracy?) So the TRUTH? Its one of the Potter Fields.
There are over a MILLION bodies buried here, expected to be the largest cemetery in the world. Bodies are buried here every day. NOT FROM COVID!! Did you get that idea from the reporting?? If you have no family to take your body in NYC, this is one place where you become interned.
@ PipeR No MORE cupcakes??? Like I ever got ONE????
I am gonna make that swim my dear. And if the cuppycakes dont show, I just might sneeze there too!!!
PS: How cold is the water today?

before all of this happened i heard that we were going to have trouble paying all of those old persons pension, they said that the world population was too old, and some people did not liked that.
many years ago this happened in japan:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/ … e-japanese
In the State I live in, our financial situation is pretty grim. Our "Pension Program" for State Employees has become 40% of the budget as we are told. OUR drain is not because they are elderly. It is because the Union Arbitration deals made with the public sector unions has agreements for their pensions and they are HIGH pensions. I can see Japan saying something like that, albeit in our case here in my State, it is the fault of the CITIZENS, electing the wrong government candidates to fix what is wrong. But this is another story. I live 1.5 hours from New York City and 1.5 hours from Boston. We are still on the "rise" with infections here. The folks "volunteering" to help, in different avenues is humbling at times.

SAD?
I meant it in the perspective of Sars-CoV2, alias CoVid-19 in Africa.
You know, there they sneeze twice and then Corona is gone

I completely mis-understood the first post. THANKS for making sense, and now it is PERFECT sense. I get it.
