[quote]Is it somewhere in the French Cote D'azur?[/quote] It isn't technically the Cote D'azur, but you are very close. It is indeed on the French Med coast. If you follow the coast to the south for a short distance, you will find the most striking natural feature of the area; les calanques. They are ~300 meters high there. There is one definative clue to the name of the town in my description.
Sorry that it has taken so long for me to get back to you. The weekends are a busy time for me. Let's widen the scope of the game a bit, shall we? I spent a very nice weekend here once. I had a brilliant bouillabase, then went to this cafe, where I knocked back a couple dozen Kirs.

[quote]my motive was to buy the game becuase gamestop sexy sales woman told me [/quote] Well, I certainly can't fault you too much for falling prey to "sexy woman". She has been steering men astray since the beginning of time. Take this lesson to heart, and don't be such a putz in future. [quote]a glorified pawn shop[/quote] Laughing out loud.

[quote]will this game run on a ATI Radeon 9700 Pro graphics card?[/quote] I'm sorry, but no. Demigod uses shader model 3.0, which your card doesn't support. The ATI X1600 series (and above) is what you will need. If you will post your system specs, then perhaps the community could suggest an economical alternative for you. BTW, I own the same card. (It's in a cubby in my desk, and I'm looking at it now). It served me well in it's day.
I'm rooting for the Bruins, but I think that the Red Wings are going to take the cup.
1268 Missouri St. San Fransisco, CA 94107 Mythbusters is one of my faves. Much of their taping is now done at the M7 annex, which is ~3 miles away. Good clue. I would have never found this without it.
EXCELLENT job, Scoutdog. You found this without my giving a single obvious hint. I thought that I hid my hints fairly well, but you smoked them out. There were three: "I'll make this one easy" It should be a place of common knowledge to most of the forum members. "I made a pilgrimage here..." This place has a significant social meaning. The third clue is a visual one- a unique landmark. In this case it is the Reunion Tower. In any case, I doff my cap t
What do you know? Erebus really does bite. I like a challenge though. Maybe I'll give the little sucker a try. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Thank you gentlemen. I'll make my first one easy (but not too easy) I made a pilgrimage here a number of years ago. I won't give any hints now, but will later if you need them.

[quote]Hiding enemy names can help prevent this, but it also works against feelings of community. I like playing against the guy who beat me last time and getting sweet revenge.[/quote] This is true. A way around this would be to make anyone in the "Friends" list always visible. Another thumbs up here for the epochs. I always assumed there would be some sort of ladder, but it's nice to hear it firsthand.
Where is the Demigod debug?
And that, of course, is the tragic flaw in the narcotics laws -- that possession of marijuana is a felony. Regardless of whether it is as harmless as some believe, or as evil and vicious as others believe, savage and uncompromising law is bad law, and the good and humane judge will jump at any technicality that will keep him from imposing a penalty so barbaric and so cruel. The self-righteous pillars of church and society demand that "the drug traffic be stamped out"

[quote]Example 1: Playing against someone known to be extremely good. Player hits skirmish and the player cares a lot about their ranking. Players gets into the game and they see that the other team has some player who they know is really good. They immediately quit. What should we do?[/quote] This one's easy. Nip this problem in the bud by not showing the player's handles in-game in this mode. When I choose to turn the knob and open the Skirmish door, I can fi

[quote]Could this have something to do with me running Windows 7 64-bit[/quote] Sorry, but no. I'm running XP SP3, and I'm reasonably certain that GPG/Stardock use Vista as their primary OS. I'm confident that GPG/SD will get this glitch ironed out in pretty short order. That's good, because I really need to 'get my chops up' before release, so that I don't completely embarrass myself.

Yes, the freezes are definately still there. It's pretty smooth sailing until I get to the "Choose Your Demigod" screen, at which point the animation will periodically freeze, and there is no functionality save for the cursor. This continues into the game, rendering it unplayable. The cursor works, and the background track plays, (the wind/birds) but nothing else will work.
My first real pc game was called "Ladder". It came bundled on a floppy disc that came with my brand new KayproII. http://oldcomputers.net/kayproii.html http://ostermillar.org//ladder/
