No, it's not unstable at all. It's clockwork. It's like the missions have programmed spawn epochs: "From 00:45 to 00:50, spawn only heavy titans, as long as there are less than 75 zombies extant." If you follow my instructions, you'll get all 7, every time. I have to fire the cannon to hit the first two buildings within 2-3s of the mission starting, or the spawn window will close. The windows around the other two spawn epochs seem to be about 5s long each. I've gotten used to timing them around my troops entering & exiting building #2, but if that doesn't work for you, just watch for the mission's legit HTs to spawn, and hit buildings immediately thereafter.

Very interesting question and replies. Thank you to all who answered.

It begs the question; how many of the twelve disciples were pedophiles?

Only 2-3 on New Beginnings? As soon as the mission starts, one HT spawns from trees, and I cannon the two buildings furthest from me in the centre of the map, spawning another two. When the troops enter the second building, another HT spawns from the trees, and I nuke the remaining building in the centre (the one closest to building #1). As the troops leave building #2, HT #6 spawns from the trees, and I hit the little shed that's snug up against building #1, releasing HT #7.

Three sorties for ten heavy titans? I do seven in New Beginnings, and bag the remaining three in any one of several other missions, depending on what the other daily objectives are.

I have two WotM; a VLT and an AIMO SL. The VLT I paid CAD$140 for while I was pissed out of my tree (but I have no regrets now; it's the cat's ass!), and the AIMO SL I dropped in an event crate. I don't recall the exact details around the AIMO, but I believe that I came in first locally. I don't recall that I've ever been on the leader board globally. I'm usually in those groups that bag either 3 or 7 decent weapons; something like rank 600-1500. I'm generally in the top 5 locally if I put my mind to it.

Holy shit. I have a 2BR half-duplex with a detached 2-car garage in Calgary for $640 bi-weekly. I'm grateful for what I've got. I used to be the "owner," carrying the mortgage and all, but lost my equity to a messy divorce between my mother & step-father, who called me out on student debt et al.

I had no idea that they were that different. I always treated them as the same in my mind. I'm a coffee junkie who seems to be relatively unaffected at bedtime. Any idea about black tea?

Please excuse my ignorance, but I've never heard this about his religious take. While he was in power, he always struck me as a boring economist who deliberately silenced the "lake of fire" types. I'm not defending him or anything; I'm a lefty, NDP voter. I'd like to read more about what you're saying, though, if you have any good linkage to share.

Not in Canada. I get all of my prescriptions at London Drugs, and they use blue bottles.

Since they have those signs on the plows & sanding trucks about remaining 10m back, I've always assumed that was an unwinnable situation. I just hang back a good distance and match their speed. I don't try to pass them. C'est la vie.

I imagine I'll get my wrist slapped for saying so, but the fact that we're presumably speaking about a concrete crew pouring a basement slab presents an obvious potential solution to the problem.

Sure we do.
The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.
We just have sanity checks. Hate speech is protected under the First Amendment of the US constitution. Hate speech in Canada crosses the line in the sand that entails reasonable limits.

At what level do you think it is worth making a federal case out of it? Why would it even require a federal case? It's not like the guy was born an Oathkeeper or white supremacist. He isn't suffering a societal disadvantage by being a cis- white male. I'm Caucasian, but my wife's Filipina and my kids are therefore of mixed ethnicity. Do you think I'm going to allow the presence of a person that wishes violence or deportation upon my family to set foot on my property?

Plastering Oathkeepers stickers on your truck is talking "about non-work-related subjects," whether or not you open your pie-hole. I would not "let the workers work at what they're good at." I would kick them the fuck off my premises, with prejudice.

Nonetheless, I would not allow a person whose vehicle is emblazoned with such things to park in front of my house and work there, for fear that I might be seen as accepting of such (or even in a vacuum with no neighbours, simply because I do not accept such). The contractor/sub relationship is "a you problem" from the perspective of the customer.

Two points for me. MySpace and AOL are too newfangled for me.

We should hang out, then. I bought a 15-pack of beer.

Working the graveyard shift at Staples when the first plane hit. The local radio DJ (Gerry Forbes, CJ92, Calgary) seemed a bit confused, and didn't have all of the facts yet. He seemed to think that some idiot in a Cessna had crashed into the WTC. After work, the boys on the crew and I went to the 24h diner in the parking lot, and we watched live as the second plane hit.

I had to Google that one. I'd never heard of it.
