They may have lost their mojo.

Then after I fixed my video card problems I had a power failure while my computer was writing to the hard drive.
So now it's time to get SH4 running again and get back in the swim here. Thanks for all the support, guys! I'm happy to say that reports of my demise were premature.

Ubi's SH5 debacle aside, Subsim is still the greatest place on the Internet and remains unscathed! Thanks Neal.

Glad to see you're back in the saddle again. Boy, talk about "When it rains it pours". A power failure during a reformat? That's too bad about your graphics card also. EVGA is one of the better cards out there too. My current card, as was my previous one, is EVGA. PNY is pretty good and so is XFX, though admittedly, I'm a little nervous yet about switching at this time. Anyway, glad your in one piece.

Now that RR has surfaced, in a manner of speaking, his account of the sinking of a carrier is a classic bit of subsim lore. Funny, too.

His posts were just the same great personality they were here, but for another subject.

No, for me diesel submarines will always remain something special. I guess it's an addiction to the smell of human sweat mixed with fear or something. Either that or it's some kind of incurable insanity. I like flying fine, even have some electric radio control planes (see me over at Wattflyer!), I have fun casually playing Gran Tourismo 4 with a good racing wheel, but I don't invest anywhere near as much of myself in those things as World War II submarines, especially American ones, since Annie's grandfather was in the crew of the Kraken. I sure wish he had lived to see Silent Hunter 4!

Now I find out how much I've forgotten in the down time! This could be very humbling....

Ahh so he was indeed OK? That's good to know! Sometimes people dissapear and from what you had seen before you can very well see that they simply moved on, but CC seemed something very different. Guess it wasn't it, in the end ...

All right, now you guys can stop emailing me and call of the search parties, heh heh, he lives.

we all can sleep better knowing Neal was on the case.

Thx mate

[Rockin Robbins]

Oh yeah, I've had some FUN with SH4 and Trigger Maru in all its flavors. And learned more about World War II submarines than I had from all my reading since I was a teenager. Thank you SH4 developers! Thank you Neal, Ducimus, Tater, Aaronblood, Gutted, and several dozen others here at Subsim.

My whole mission here at Subsim has been trying to enable everyone to have the level of fun I've had. Anyone who thinks I'm some kind of tactics genius has it all wrong. I'm just a cheerleader, lifting the pretty girls and shaking those pom-poms.

[I'm goin' down]

when I read his tutorial on MoBo and learned to use his program, I felt I was in the presence of a genius. RR, there is no need to explain yourself. The fact that 700 subsimmers visited this thread is an expression of their feelings.

Indeed and it didn't even have his name in the subject just his initials. I check the thread every time there is a new post. Having served on an LA Class and worked out numerous problems on a MoBoard, I have to admit I was impressed by the program. Wish we would have had PCs and your program back then. Would have saved a lot of trees!
