It's more like a nobel prize for physics on a theory that hasn't been quantified yet, but shows great promise for the furthering of science
that happened. It's called cold fusion. They won the nobel prize and then could never recreate it.

Heh funnily enough, that's what I was thinking about when I wrote it.

FF is definately the cold fusion of HL2-mods.

A viable extremely huge source of potential awesomeness (energy/power), it just needs to be completed and released (harnessed and controlled)

In answer to Ginger's question, I think the answer is fairly glaring. They are the people who kill teammates on FF servers. They are the people who ram the Titans into each other in bf2142. They are the people who camp T spawn on DE_ maps.

They are...the griefers

Cold fusion isn't possible though, is it?

cold fusion has been around and working since about 1999 i believe, the only reason we haven't seen it is because the government cannot tax water. They tax gasoline INSANELY so they are making as much as they can from fossil fuels before going to cold fusion since cold fusion will be so bloody cheap it's not even funny.....

Yeah, and they've been reverse engineering the alien spacecraft, but they can't tell anyone about it.

I don't hate the mod team you spack. Can you point out where I have made this evident? And he is beta testing for the reason of spamming these forums, not because he's a decent tfc player.

*shakes fist at the government*

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_fusion

THE GOVERNMENT IS CENSORING THE MEDIA FOR THE OIL COMPANIES!!!

Cuz I mean, they totally want Saudi Arabia and the Middle East in general to control all our power supplies for the next 200 years, rather than have their own source, right?

And he's beta testing because he's not a dick, unlike others 'round here

You are taking this a little to far. There is nothing wrong with hoping that it will come out before the end of this year and there is nothing wrong with putting your hope into words for others to see. Its an encouragement and probably something the devteam is appreciative of seeing.

Johnny C, I think you (conveniently) missed the post about there being an award (using the same voting mechanism) for unreleased mods as well as released ones. So technically, FF could be in the running for either, as it's nominated for both.

But that would shoot holes in your water-tight theory on people here knowing less than you right?

Well, except we know what grammar, spelling and punctuation are, not to mention what it feels like to touch a woman and have RL friends.

Someone who can find bugs and report them.

When we were testing the original DoD:S version Valve gave us, there mustve been about 100 of us in the test group from all walks of life.

There were the CAL people, server ops, mappers & modellers, people that had never played before and the middle of the road old timers. Between us all we pretty much got every single bug, then Valve decided to redo DoD from scratch so we had effectivly wasted a few months of our lives
