Quote from egghed6 :hendrix is not overrated...hes amazing-the first person to widely introduce shredding

Yes, I respect him for the evolution he introduced in guitar playing, but he's really far from being "the best" guitarist and you'll find a legion of people claiming that he was a living god . In that sense Hendrix is overrated by many people.

By the way... asking for the best (in every field) it's something useless, as it's dependant on too many factors... it's a very subjective opinion, but I like these threads, you always discover a new musician that worths listening to him

P.S: I have the same guitar as your mate have, but mine it's the cheaper one instead the top spec

Quote from SilverArrows77 :On another note, it always surprises me when people rate Kirk Hammett so highly as the guitarist of Metallica

In my honest opinion Kirk Hammet it's just crap

Do you want to play like Kirk Hammet? Here are a few tips:
- Learn the pentatonic minor, don't waste your time learning other scales, you just don't need them
- If your technique it's not enough for a solo to sound clean then add more distortion
- When you don't know how to do with a solo then go for a one string pentatonic descendant tapping, crowds really like that millions notes flying out of your fingers
- Oh, and don't forget to let everyone know that you've "learned" with Joe Satriani :guitarist

Quote from wark :Oh, and Al Di Meola!

I hardly recommend watching this video

Paco de Lucía it's pure genius... he didn't even know what a scale was, he played all by ear and he almost own Di Meola and McLaughlin on that tour

I personally don't like very much the Al Di Meola (picky - picky - picky... 100 km'h) style, but he's a great guitarist no doubt

Ron Thal aka Bumblefooot. Not so known guitarist, but incredible technique, lots of fresh and new ideas, perfect performance while improvisating and a very particular conception of the music

I've made a few years ago another poll in another forum asking for the most overrated guitarist of all time... Results (with more than 1000 votes) were not very surprising:

1.- Santana
2.- Keith Richards
3.- Eric Clapton
4.- Hendrix
5.- Slash
6.- Hammet

Quote from Mazz4200 : How, how, how in all thats holy have you managed to do that ?. You're top of the league and you've still managed to save 30million ? How ?

I've made no improvements to my team in the last 2 races...
I've also been quite lucky in the last one, wich gives me a few millions... but with bets I'm doing it quite bad

Hope I've found the correct answer to the bonus question and I'm buying the Ferrari chassis that it's really the best quality / prize combination at this moment

Quote from Hyperactive :There still isn't that sub-league comparison web page, wonder who gets the caps as our league is doing quite fine imho :/

10 of the first 50 in the overall ranking are from our subleague... I think we're doing it quite well

Quote from samjh :I'd go for a chassis upgrade, if I were you.

A single driver can be punted out of a race, or finish badly. If you upgrade your chassis, you can mitigate bad luck between two drivers.

I was thinking the same and for now Barrichello are not doing it bad... thanks for the advice

Quote from Paranoid Android :Hamilton ruined my race...

Ferrari engine Williams chassis...

:something

All bow to the master! I'm owning you all :icon23:

And I must think what to do with my 30 Millions... maybe upgrading to Kovalainen... maybe moving to Ferrari chassis

Keep working, we are doing it quite well on the overall ranking

Quote from Victor :Did you know that because of varying exchange rates, LFS in Euro countries is a lot cheaper right now than for example compared to last year?

LFS S2 license (£24 GBP) :
2007 : €36 EUR
NOW : €30 EUR

A 6 Euro discount! Just like that The British Pound isn't very strong at the moment, while the Euro is, making it attractive for Europeans to buy goods in England. I guess if you live in a Euro country and you've had doubts about the price before, now is your chance to get your LFS license with a 17% discount!

I think that now it's the best moment to release S3 then!

I think I'm facing the best result of the season

BMW fuel (1st, 2nd), Toyota chassis (4th, 6th), Honda engine and both drivers (7th, 11th)

Quote from Mustafur :How do you exactly save up, becuase if you don't spend all your money your not going to earn as much and when you sell stuff its the same price as what you get it for, so im a little confused.

I'm keeping the same team I used at Monaco, didn't spent anything

So if things go fine I'll have about 30 Millions next week to go for a better driver a think

The answer was clearly solved at the Grand Prix du Canada Official Website:

F1 Fans -> Statistics -> Father & Son at the Grand Prix du Canada

Then count, pick the right choice and wait for those 2.5 Millions to not improve the team at all . Damn, I need lots of money to make a worthy improvement

Quote from Lible :Huge ego? Come one, every normal guy likes to show off if he's in a new Porsche for the first time.. don't tell me you wouldn't.

Later, he said: “This is my first crash in almost 30 years and it had to happen in someone else’s car.”


Tree surgeon Daniel Winn, who was working nearby, said: “He was trying to show off. I think he saw me eyeing up the car and decided to give it a few revs.
“But he ended up overrevving it and lost control.”





By the way, that photo reminds me of this other one:



Now the entire picture get sense, it's all genetic

Quote from chanoman315 :What is that? i read it on www.lostpedia.com but i dont understand Schwitz

It's a web based game... basically they release a web related to the story (Oceanic Airlines, Dharma Initiative, Hanso Foundation, etc...) and they hide clues that lead to other webs and so on...

Reward are videos about the story that are not directly related with what we see at the episodes... it's more about the story we don't know...

TLE1 was about the Dharma Foundation and their final purpose (saving the world Big grin) and TLE2 was about the Widmore's freighter looking for the rests of the plane (before we know from the episodes about the faked crash) Thumbs up

The webs are totally accesible so you can make the game if you want or you can just go to youtube and see the videos Nod

This one is really interesting if you don't know yet what are the really signification of the numbers Cool

Quote from Mustafur :If heidfeld doesn't score in this race or gets another rubbish qualifiying his chances of staying next year are basically nil.

And I would like to see Alonso and Kubika at BMW
They are good friends and superb drivers and I'm sure they could get BMW to a new level, really close to McLaren and Ferrari and give an impressive season

Why not simply don't display in game wheel nor racer arms?

You have your own realistic arms (I hope ) and your real wheel attached to your racing table (or cockpit) so why do you want to see it in LFS too?

Why every bonus question is so unexactly redacted?

I'll assume that as far as Nelsinho didn't race the Grand Prix ever that answer don't fit the question

Quote from xaotik :As said above - depends on the music. Take the lyrics away from most of Johnny Cash's or Henson Cargill's songs, for example, and you'll end up with a big empty nothing. Not even tunes worth humming to really.

But are they musicians?
For example Bob Dylan... is he really a musician? For me is more like a speech with sounds on behind

Quote from danowat :It tells me my pace, my average pace, my current speed, current distance, gradients, and after the run I can analyse where I am slow(er), where I am fast(er) etc etc, you can also run against a "virtual partner" and try to race them, plus you can compare like for like runs and see how you are improving.

You can also do frivilous things like view your run on satelitte maps etc etc

So they put GPS sports watches on the cars and now we can enjoy the New Instant Hotlap Analyzer Nice!
