Got Subsim Gear? Show it in action!

[GoldenRivet]

Post pics of your subsim battle gear in action, mugs, shirts, hats steins... any subsim gear in any situation.

And if you dont have subsim gear... go get some here!

I'll start us off:



Mmmm a nice hot cup of Joe.

Just be careful of showing off those "Subsim Condoms" in action.

I thought those were "anechoic protection"

Me reaching for the last sip of tea in my old plankowner mug.

Do SubSim Almanacs count?
I have several.
I was hopeing for a Mug at the 2008 SubSim meet and all I got was an SH4 T-Shirt (Didn't even have SubSim on it! WTF?)
and some cassette tapes!
(The tapes are about the USS Indianapolis and are really GREAT! Still don't have any SubSim markings or anything though.)

I've got a few extra so the old ones got new jobs.

I have the T-shirt, but no camera.

I have a sweatshirt, t-shirt, and one of the tile coasters that I turned into a fridge magnet. And a tote bag, which turned out to be just big enough to carry all the other assorted totes that I use when I do the grocery shopping.

But like Steve, I got no camera. Except for the crappy one on my cell phone, which takes pictures so bad they're not worth the hassle of emailing them to myself and uploading somewhere.

Most. Awesome. Thread. Ever.

I approve

My cell phone takes pretty good pictures. At least they look good on the phone. I can't upload them to my computer because it just doesn't work. And no, I can't email them to my computer either.

Maybe there's a Subsim Cell Phone...

Yeah, but it only works when you're holding it in a 120' arc to your sides.
It won't work holding it straight out or behind you. Also, you have to actively listen to it yourself to get reception, the antenna just doesn't do a good enough job on its own.
Turning it on takes 12 minutes.
You can't put anybody on hold if your standing within a 2 mile area of a ship.
It beeps at you every time time it picks up a new signal, and slows you down from whatever you were trying to do quickly.
It attracts seagulls if you're near the shore.
You need an active wifi connection to use it.
And anytime you press the 6 key, it turns off.

But on the plus side, you do get chased by hot nurses throwing flowers at you.

Also, you need to come up to periscope depth to make or receive calls.

So basically a fair bit more useful and reliable then normal cell phones?

Naw you can get a longer antenna so you can get receive calls at any depth as long as you don't mind them coming in at 1-2 characters an minute.
