Yes, Jeff used his porting tool. He said so during beta testing. You are correct in saying there was a lot of extra work.

Movie Trivia Challenge: ROUND VII in General

The game is played as follows: two actors are given and must be connected through appearances in television shows or movies. The object is to connect the two actors with the fewest connections possible. Please READ THE RULES BEFORE POSTING, KEY RULES HAVE BEEN PUT IN BOLD!

ROUND VII

Mary Tyler Moore to Alan Rickman

Set point value = 8

Some rules:

1) You may only post a connection of an actor to a movie/TV show already established in the list. For instance, you may say "Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump" only if either Tom Hanks or Forrest Gump have been previously mentioned.

2) Posts should be in the form of: "actor" in "movie/television show" format. Do NOT do "actor X to actor Y in movie A". This keeps the game so others can participate.

3a) You may only post ONE connection every three hours. After posting your connection, you must wait for three hours unless the connection has been established.

3b) You may not double post. This is to prevent people from getting too far ahead as is the case now.

4) Once the actors are connected, you may post a list of all the connections regardless of any previous rules. The next round will begin in ~24 hours (at the discretion of the administrator) after the original connection is established.

5) During the ~24 hour period after the original chain, a shorter connection may try to be established. Should one be established, the one who establishes it (and any others who may help) will receive half points for each link they provided. All those who participated in the original chain will still receive full points. If participation is good, 1 point will be awarded for each unused connection.

6) You may only use movie appearances or TV show appearances. The exception are TV shows which regularly have guest appearances as part of the show (Saturday Night Live, Jay Leno, etc.). However, a guest appearance on, say, M*A*S*H* would be acceptable.

7) You may NOT use cartoon voices, directing/production roles. The actor must have actually appeared in the movie to be valid.

8) You may NOT use IMDB or any other refererence/database to assist you. There is no way to enforce this, but let's keep the game honest.

Points are awarded for each person having a piece of the shortest connection. The number of points awarded are given in each round.

The winner and possibly runners up will be granted a custom title. Even if you do not know a lot of movies, feel free to post what you know.

For reference:

Round I
Round II
Round III
Round IV
Round V
Round VI

The simplest analysis would be to apply the conservation of energy and assume adiabatic reversible conditions (i.e. Bernoulli's equation) for the tank problem. Of course, this is incorrect as the flow would be turbulent and Bernoulli's is sort of only valid for laminar flows. Ah, the worderful word of form loss coefficients and empirical formulas... :)

I wonder if there is a connection between Thralni's graphics and scenarios not getting finished...looks like a 1 to 1 correlation thus far... :rolleyes:

The BoA/BoE scenario converter is a crude utility at best. It's really only been used sucessfully a couple times, and only then there was still tens to hundreds of hours of work to do.

Yeah, I probably would too...but there are so many MTV generation little kiddies with attention spans of 7.6 seconds. Unfortunately, I find it difficult to believe they could sit through a 5 hour movie.

Yes, anyone of us (plus Schrodinger too) is capable of that...the appointment to moderator is not done for the faint of heart, however. It involves many great trials and tests of character, fortitude, and will. And even if you pass, it only takes the rejection of one of the current mods to disqualify you.

Regards,

Your Twisted Moderator Lord
