Now that I know what it takes to stump ya...
Here is the initial shot of Mystery Subsim #22
http://www.subsim.com/mystery/ms22a.jpg

If you guess, and you are wrong, then you have only two wrong guesses left in the whole contest before your participation ends, so guess wisely (if you are really sure). If you don't know, don't waste a guess! :) You can only guess incorrectly three times in the contest.

You cannot EDIT your post in this contest. An edited or deleted post counts as a guess.

Remember the rules!! (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=143829)

If no one tries to guess this shot, or no one guesses correctly, there will be an expanded shot to follow.

Good hunting!

Silent Steel.

You are well on your way to becoming the first Iron Cross winner in this contest (10 victories) :up:

Silent Steel is kerr-ect!

From the review: (http://www.subsim.com/ssr/steel.html)

You meet a variety of characters in Silent Steel. The smooth and poised XO. The smart, tough Master Chief. A little sonar tech who would appear to be better situated in an accountant's office. A grizzled, sour old Admiral. And a sexy female (surprised?) CIA agent who pops in occasionally to lend mystery to the proceedings. Not all of the action takes place aboard the nuclear sub, either. You will visit the deck of an aircraft carrier (stock footage, my guess, but that's okay), the situation room of the task force, and a helo at sea. The whole affair is like taking part in a Tom Clancy movie, with you as the star. If you take your time and reflect on the environment and absorb the atmosphere, you can play Silent Steel with the impression that you are an integral part of the story. It does seem a little strange, though, when you are in the role as Captain, making decisions, passing out orders, evaluating data, and conferring with your officers, and the scene shifts to another ship, where you, as Captain, could not possibly be at that moment. In a way, SS plays as both an interactive sim and a movie, since you witness events as both a participant of the sim and a viewer of the movie.

Well, well, we are only scratching the surface of the Subsim screenshot archive and already we have one skipper with 50% more victories than the next competitor :ping: Maybe some of you should form an alliance and take shifts...
... because Mystery Subsim #23 is warming up the diesels as we speak.
