And the good thing about subsim is that you can resurrect a three year old thread with such ease barely anybody (Steve excluded ) notices.


You have no idea how many times I've started reading a thread and started to compose an answer in my head, only to find I already replied...years ago.

Thanks Mates! And thank you Steve! I been Jonah hexX for 7+ years now. I chose the name amidst all the first person shooters i played, as Jonah Hex was the roughest toughest gun anywhere. Here, on the other hand, Id like to emphasize the 'Jonah' and minimize the 'HexX'. Its still a good nautical name, i think. It has an alternate meaning of 'the curse from the one who is cursed at sea'. howbeit eerie or macabre, I can live with that. And how appropriate that my first post was on a thread about the ghost ship Cyclops ... ?
Has anyone seen the Mary Celeste, the Kraken, Nessie or any mermaids? I figure its worth asking, as we dont know what or where the easter eggs are.
The sea, constantly powered by electrical storms yet tamed by gravity and kept within our natural magnetic field, is one giant Leydon jar saltwater battery. Conducting this energy in ways still a mystery to us, it is little wonder why mysterious things happen there, and mysterious things are reported to be seen.

not to tear from this thread, but i must ask a question. Has anyone here ever stood at thier conning tower at night in so-so weather, looked out upon the water, and for a split second you think you see something. Not a ship or a sub, but something emerging from the ocean about a foot or 2? Then you realise it was just a shadow on a wave. Goosebumps for 5 seconds, and your heart sinks from your throat back down into your chest. You know it was nothng, but for an instant you thought you saw something alive. Somethng you know good and well that was never put in the game (?). Im a grown man, for heavens sake, but this happens to me , every now and then. has this ever happened to anyone else here?

A moment of silence for all those who looked out, and saw something real.
Whatever it was. Selah.

Not to me, but I was on the real sea for a time, and never saw anything there either. Maybe my imagination just dried up and blew away. I'm the guy who actually has more fun sailing in and out of the harbors than stalking ships.

Maybe if you'd been either on subs, or on a vessel receiving a torpedo you'd be a bit more jumpy about waves and shadows at night.

Oh Boy, talk about being clueless.

I saw that particular box too. But never had the brain-cells nor the IQ to think this could be an easter-egg.

I was thinking this was just an turm-emblem on a box!

This annoys me even more, considering that I came across the frigging box, but have yet to spot a whale or Dolphin.

Yeah I've never seen the whales or dolphins either. But I spend my time around south england and the meditteranian, and i think the manual says they are found more north. The real question is who's side they are on. its very unclear, and i suspect not all whales and dolphins have the same allegiance. Mr dolphin, Papers Please.
Does Jonah have something against whales? Yup. They dont have cable or toilet paper. I want to paint my boat up like a whale shark.
I think their camouflage is excellent. There. i said it.
