Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I remember someone saying on a different thread that the weather in the game is a non-random occurrence. Or was it moonlight? My memory of it elludes me.

Moonlight is actual historical but of course 100% moonlight can be trumped by random weather. And the weather is random.

Ok thanks, I knew that it was one or the other.

Actually here's a quick question: How can you tell which A/C radar sets are strictly for navigational purposes or surface search, early warning etc.?

By studying history? Information on the devices is available in the game display.

I pictured the beginning and end of the list, there's some missing from the middle. Just an example.

I know about the database but I was more so wondering about the actual details that can be found in game, as you can all see with the Gorn's screenshots, MAD is listed as an A/C Radar but in reality MAD isn't exactly radar.

I'm saying that in-game there is really no way to tell if an A/C radar such as the N-6 Radar is an Navigation, Surface SEARCH or E/W radar.

Tracker maybe?

Somebody more knowledgeable will respond but I just want to know why people keep capitalizing "gorn". Do you all capitalize "human"? It is acceptable to capitalize it when you are referring to the planet or the species as a whole. Otherwise, I am a gorn with a small g. I get to capitalize "I" and that is enough.

Ah but you are the only Gorn on here and I (among others) refer to you sir as "The Gorn" rather than "a gorn". You are the last of your species on here, accept this fate until your lizardmates join you.

You are mistaken. There are a couple of other gorns here who are undercover. Trust no one. Keep your Bacon-bits in sealed containers.

I am a gorn of substance, a gorn of distinction. I would not misuse your bacon-bits but hand them to the nearest lady gorn. Then I would apologize to you in the only way I know how...

No, No - play by the rules, but do not play like they want you to play. The casinos have a mathematical advantage in every game offered, and on every bet in the casino but one - and you can only make that bet after you have first made another bet. There are several ways to reduce their advantages, but the easiest way to win is to remember - If you don't quit when you are ahead, when are you going to quit?
Common Sense is an uncommon virtue.
If you think you have everything under control, you don't fully understand the situation.
