'Kay, it's time to once again *separate* the men from the boys!....;)
Today's men-mice winnowing project is a simple one, with, however, subtle overtones of complexity, sublimity, and maybe even a dash of chicanery thrown in for good measure --it's about a "15" on a scale of "1-20", with 1 point being the lowest and 20 points being absolute perfection in the greater testosterone dispensary chartings this week!
Winner takes all as usual--50ccs of pure, unadulterated testosterone, delivered any way you like it (call Maggie at BR8-5R9-5555 for details and arrangements--tell 'em "Snake" sent 'ya for your Bonus Pack eligibility.)
Anyway, here's the contest background: Special Branch needs that effervescent, world-renown classic, Lands of Lore 2, setup and running on a 3d card, running under D3d to be specific about it, by Thursday afternoon @3:00 p.m. EST. Contestant needs to post clear, concise setup instructions to *this forum* by that very, very real "drop dead date" in order to win the dynamite, life-changing T. Instructions need to follow the process from A-Z, but may take a few liberties as time and place dictate, such as assuming the reader/contestant already knows what "a computer" is, what "Windows 7" is, and is instantly and thoroughly conversant with advanced technologies such as on-off electronic switching and so on.
There are a couple of posts in the GoG, LoL2 threads that, while brimming with bravado, attempt to outline the procedure required here, but in reality actually don't outline anything, really. Hence the request behind this week's contest. Take these posts as an example of how *not* to enter the contest.
Target machine: Win7 x64. 4-gigs System Ram. 1.2 terabytes of storage, 3Ghz Athlon II, AMD/ATi 5770 with latest AMD 12.1a Catalysts driver release preview. Win7 x64 fully patched, etc.
Procedure needs to detail how get LoL2 running on target machine under D3d--since in many cases (though not all) the rendering is *so much better* than through the generic 2d rendering engine that was in popular use at the time of Lol2's original publication.
What's happened here is that one of Obama's younger relatives is having a guest at the White House this week who is demanding LoL2--D3d--and since the Joint Chiefs and the CIA is mostly stumped here and cannot help the President, I got 'OB's permission to ask the experts here on Gog. The Admin is cool with everything in this week's contest with the possible exception of the Strontium-8 refined Testosterone being separated out at this very moment for the winner. But OB has confided in me that during the last couple of years he himself has had several adventures with "the big T" as he calls it, so he isn't against the practice of "chuffing the T-bone," again, as he calls it!
Thanks much for your participation--a few extra hairs on your chests is always a welcome sign of manhood! And your President thanks you, too!
