[zorgon]

Did I ever mention...

I HATE SKYPE?

[robomont]

You may have but i dont remember your reasoning other than privacy.

[ArMaP]

Why does it say "-50.05 below average"?

If it's below average it's not an attack.

I have to see if I can get more information about it.

[robomont]

If your country is invaded by billion immigrants today and only a half billion tomorrow.its still an invasion.
I just figure its funny number.but dont really know.

[ArMaP]

If your country is invaded by billion immigrants today and only a half billion tomorrow.its still an invasion.

Yes, but when something is below average I don't think we can call it "severe", like in the thread title.

[robomont]

If you look at the color scale.red is the worst? and the entire country almost is red.
Us rednecks call it severe.

Hate is a strong word

[ArMaP]

If you look at the color scale.red is the worst?

Yes, red is the worst, but the worst of what is being shown, not the worst ever.

Us rednecks call it severe.

I'm not a redneck.

And if we all are using the Internet and going to US based sites then it means that, whatever it may be, it's not severe on a global scale.

My dad used to call that nitpicking.

[robomont]

Gold for that vi.
I didnt want to piss off armap but you said it anyway.so ill back it up with treasure.

[ArMaP]

My dad used to call that nitpicking.

I call it trying to understand what we are talking about, something that is rarely used in here. 

[robomont]

Well in your grand wisdom armap.
What is going on here?
What does that map show?
What color would it be if a billion more attacks happened tomorrow.
Personally i guess black because the screen would be dead.but maybe its just ants eating on fiber optics?

[ArMaP]

What does that map show?

Attacks.

What color would it be if a billion more attacks happened tomorrow.

I think the maximum is always red, the minimum is always that light blue, only the scale changes.
