ChromeHounds - Gen. Discussion & Info

[quote name='LinkinPrime']Its cool, I actually didnt mean to ask for your salary, meant to ask what the average is. Thanks for the info. I'm thinking about signing up for online courses through The Academy of Art, just need to buy a good PC and some software that they require which is quite costly.[/QUOTE]

Just remember that software can be purchased for a discount if you are a student. Sorry I wasn't thinking there . . . Average salary is between $35,000 entry level until probably about $60,000 max maybe a little more depends on the company and experience.

##################################################

GROUP 1 HAS PICKS FOR TODAY 8/24

GROUP 2 HAS PICKS FOR FRIDAY 8/25
 
Lottery picks:
The Nations capture parts from oposing Nations and also create experimental parts. Since the system doesnt allow for everyone to purchase them, they are put on lotteries or raffles if you will. The Squad gets X number of lottery picks each day based on Squad size and rank. You can use your lottery picks on Captured or Experimental parts. Entering in the lotteries does require a deposit for the amount of the part(s) you want to get. If you win the lottery the game will alert you next time you enter the shop and your parts will be added to your inventory. You don't usually win all parts, if you do lose parts, your deposit is returned. One win allows quantity one of one part. Entering mulitple picks for the same part is allowed, just in case you want more than one of a particular part.

sounds sweet :D
 
[quote name='Renegade_Zero']Well, I got this game so if I could join the squad I'd like that, should be on later tonight.[/quote]

Look for Ramo Z on XBL, hopefully he will be on. He's the only one that can remove members from the Squad. Currently we're full so we need him to clear room as people start joining up.
 
Sorry I have not been playing the last few days. I will be back this weekend. Just wanted to take a little break from the action to gamble a little bit.
 
Its been dead the last 2 days. Everyone seems to be playing Texas Hold'em. It was Ramo, Max, and Me last night. We took everyone elses picks :D, Toper was able to log on for his. I most likely won't be on tonight since I'll be at an Improv Show. Might not be on for the weekend. Might be going away with the "Boss" ;) But will definately be on Monday.

I did not check for picks so I missed mine again. Anway I am assuming this is going to be the new pick format. Are we just going to alternate days with group 1 and 2? My next picks should then be on Saturday.

I was hoping on that yes. The only problem is that I just noticed that Brak went up to Private. That makes the groups uneven. Still not sure how/where to fit him in.

EDIT: I was thinking I can make group 3 with Brak, and the first 5 other people (Private or above) who play on that day, can just take the rest. So it would be random/first come first served. What do you guys think?

That would just be for group 3, and I'd be filling in the slots as more people rank up. Plus Group1 and Group2 are already guaranteed spots for the people on the list so the extras on group 3 would be just that, extras.

[quote name='Santurio']I have am idea but it may not work out. I'll PM you in a minute Linkin.[/quote]

Is it about sending a tape in of Maximo to the show "Cheaters"? :lol:
 
Hey guys, I'm still working on getting my 360 up and running on Live here at school - so you will be better off not including me in the Lotto schedule till further notice. Later.
 
I think there is a new lotto system in the works now. Hopefully it goes through and you dont have to worry about that the system will take care of that. Hope you have that up soon. Miss that wh-n yo- ta-k Lik- t-is. LOL hope everything is going good over there. Just keep checking back hopefully new picks will be up soon. If The President 'Santurio' passes it.

What the hell? You lost me..
 
[quote name='Renegade_Zero']I tried to join last night but the squad wasn't showing up in the list? I'm gonna go see if I can join right now...[/QUOTE]

Might not show up because its either full or no one is on. I think linkin was trying to get you to come in but you never contacted him last night. I Ramo and i should be on tonight at about 8-1am central.

He did msg me but I was in the middle of getting my ass kicked (thank you Ramo, thank you Max) by 2 hounds and I totally forgot about the message until before I turned off my 360.

How did this happen? You being out numbered in a match? Were you playing with someone?

Oh, I thought you were talking about me. I was like " I don't sutter, WTF!" :lol:
 
Instead of delivering my game today, they thought it best for it to sit in a mail distribution center about 1.5 hours away from here. Sigh, maybe tomorrow.

We will be starting this new program on Saturday with Group 1.

If you have any problems or suggestions, post here.



NOTE: I'm out of town till Sunday evening, anyone kind enough from Group 2 to temporarily switch picks with me. You take my picks for Saturday, I take yours for Sunday and we go back to normal on Monday? If not its cool, they'll go up for the Winner Take-All Free Battle Royal.
 
[quote name='darkrage']Ill switch with you Linkin if you want[/quote]

I should be on tonight. Did you take my picks on Saturday? If not its cool I can wait till tomorrow.
 
[quote name='shipwreck']Got my game today. Let me know if I can get in a squad.[/quote]

Try to get Ramo online, he's the one that can remove players from the squad so that we can accept more.
 
You can boot Cobra55 off the squad. He failed to tell me that he only had the game for a week. He will not be back on. Sorry about the troubles.
 
[quote name='Mr Wahoo']You can boot Cobra55 off the squad. He failed to tell me that he only had the game for a week. He will not be back on. Sorry about the troubles.[/QUOTE]

You can probably boot GBman from the squad as well. I talked to him this weekend and I doubt that he will be playing anymore.
 
Sorry I didn't get on last night. I will definitely be on today.

So it looks like we will have 3-4 spots open if anyone wants to join tonight.

Crap, well leave one spot open for me but I forgot to bring my memory card with me today and I won't be going home tonight, so I won't be on until Tuesday night at the earliest. (You know, the night where everyone else will be playing Saint's Row). :lol:
