It would be best to do a partial D6 sweep, specifcally for the purpose of capturing a few webuls - Deployed scanners can ensure minimal disturbance to the rest of the district. If any webuls are missed, they could be informed that they have permission to enter D1 and wreak some havock.
By using actual webuls, we drive more RP, and get a legitimate response from D6.

Michael Noir's Civil Authority ApplicationOOC Name: [GM] I Eat Chich IC Character Name: Michael Noir 1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.Before the 7 Hour War, Noir worked for a manufacturing company that produced calculator parts, which had its assets stripped and production moved abroad to China. From that moment, Noir knew what true hunger felt like. He could not feed his three children on welfare and he lost his youngest child to malnutrition as the recession took a deeper hold on his community and the welfare he was promised could not even provide basic sustenance to the millions of people left destitute by the second Great Depression. When the Combine arrived, the hunger which he thought had been true before was nothing compared to what he felt now. Determined to survive, Noir stole from fellow citizens as his community resisted the occupation and therefore rations were withheld. After a month of Combine occupation, Noir weighed 3/4's of what he weighed before the occupation. Noir was determined to secure more food for himself, even if this meant working against the community that once supported him. Noir doesn't particularly feel a love for the Combine, and he feels that their occupation has made matters worse. He's treated like a slave, starved, beaten and humiliated and the only way he can escape this suffering is by joining the CCA. Noir marched into the application office determined to become a recruit and work his way up through the ranks, in turn receiving a weapon to defend himself against people who also felt the need to survive by stealing from others, and receiving enough rations so he would not lay awake for many hours, his insomnia induced by the great hunger he felt constantly. 2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)- Determined/Perseverance - Loyalty to the most powerful organization present - Uncompassionate to criminals -Very kind when dealing with citizens who have done nothing wrong -Severely malnourished 3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.I expect to get pushed around as a recruit which is what should happen in HL2RP. I don't expect to be given much forgiveness for any mistake I make so I won't make any mistakes. I've been in the CCA before on Kuromeku's community (the name has slipped my mind) so I know that I've gotta take orders from my superiors. I'm hoping that I'll get involved with the Inquisitor side of the Combine, the guys who extract information from citizens; before you ask, I'm not a sadist, I feel that my roleplay is of a very high quality and this position offers a very good method of showing my skills. 4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.When Noir first got fired, he was shocked. He knew that life was going to be difficult once he had no source of income, but the welfare state could keep him and his children alive at the very least. The company he worked for, Casio Calculators, had sold off the property and the first Mike knew of his unemployment was when he approached the building at 9am on a Monday morning and was faced with a 'CONDEMNED' sign. Mike went home and informed his children that he didn't have a job anymore, and that for the moment they couldn't buy new clothes or go on holiday during the summer. Mike started receiving his welfare cheque a week after he lost his job. At first, the welfare allowed him to live relatively comfortably, whilst obvious making cutbacks, but nothing so major that it affected his children's lives. Then, one morning, Mike was watching the television when the news reporter's coverage of the troubles in Burkhina Fasou was cut short; the camera switched over to the Financial sector of CNN. On the screen, there was a projection of a plummeting graph indicating that the FTSE 100 and many other major stock markets were crashing. The dollar was worth virtually nothing, and his savings may have just as well been burnt. Mike lost everything in a matter of hours. The next winter was extremely tough. The welfare fund was slowly drying up as more people became unemployed and it had to be spread even further, and eventually he couldn't afford the bacon he usually cooked for his family every morning. Mike cancelled his heating payments in order to be able to buy himself and his family two meals a day, and they mainly consisted of bread. His youngest child, Dave, fell ill with pneumonia as his house was so frighteningly cold. Dave died within two weeks of falling ill, and Mike never recovered. During the summer, there were shimmering blue lights, called Portal Storms, that deposited frightening monsters around the town. "Am I going mad? Has Dave's death really affected me that much?" Mike asked himself. But he knew he had not been driven insane; half of his town had moved into Cleveland after fleeing from the monsters that Mike frequently saw roaming the fields. Mike refused to leave and so did many of the other people in the town; they gathered arms and fought off many of the monsters. They did not fight as effectively as they could have since many were so hungry that they could not even hold a gun without shaking, but they held off the monsters for many weeks. Then the Combine invaded; nobody could believe it. The news arrived in the morning that gunships from some unknown country, which Mike now knows were not even from any country, were flying across America and slaughtering the armed infantry that were fighting so desperately to defend the country. The war felt like it had raged for years due to the intensity of the fighting, but in reality the UN declared that their forces were surrendering to the Combine after a mere 7 hours. Mike was arrested by the Combine for simply being outside of the city and was deported to City 17 where he now resides. He was forced to leave his children behind when he was arrested and Mike remains convinced that they have been deported to some other city. At first in City 17, many of the citizens rebelled, refusing to believe that Earth had simply given up. Mike refused to join in as he had heard the blood curdling screams that penetrated the walls behind where so many of the rebels were tortured. As a result of the resistance, many rations were withheld and Mike feared he would died from starvation. They recieved barely 1000 calories per day and were made to work backbreaking hours for their new 'benefactors.' Mike realized he had to join the Combine as soon as possible as he grew frightened when he could see hair falling from his head due to the starvation. 5) Have you ever had a CCA character here at Catalyst Gaming?

Grigory was born on the 16th April 1955 to a poor farming family in Yakutsk, USSR. He struggled through the first few years of life but joined the Kadets who taught him Marxist ideology and how to influence and manipulate people. He followed Stalinist teachings which proposed that human rights be ignored for the good of the community. He helped construct coal mining towns in Siberia. Premier Kruschev invited and sponsored his Kadet group to attend Lomonosov University in Moscow, where Grigory further studied politics, heavily centered on Stalinist politics.
After graduating with his doctorate in politics, Stulenkov first worked with Leonid Brezhnev within the Cominform and helped draw support from some Afghani tribes to allow the eventual Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
Grigory was then promoted to Chairman of Cominform under Premier Gorbachev, and was involved with organizing Spec Ops missions in the People's Republic of China, largely inciting revolt within it's peasant population due to deteriorating Sino-Soviet relations, and conducted the supply of oil to North Korea. Grigory highly disagreed with the policy of Perestroika and disobeyed Gorbachev's orders by organising the assassination of citizens who were members of the Polish Solidarity movement.
When Yeltsin lead a coup and overthrew the Soviet government, Grigory went into hiding as he was wanted for crimes commited in Poland in relation to the citizens who were assasinated.
He moved to Pyongyang and worked closely with Kim Jong Il in repressing media and designing anti-American propaganda. Stulenkov was paid handsomely by Kim Jong and Grigory remained in North Korea.
Grigory then began to study more literature on policies introduced by Jong Il and Il Sung, on how they managed to have such a cults of personality. Then Grigory began to develop his own cult of personality, convincing the North Koreans that he was the only person keeping the imperialism of America at bay and that he even assisted Ho Chi Minh in the Vietnam war... really he never did either of those things, but everyone believed that he did. Literature criticizing Grigory was immediately banned and anyone who criticized Grigory was detained and rarely ever seen again.
When the Combine arrived and took the world over in mere hours, Grigory immediately struck a deal to disarm North Korea's missiles to prevent further Combine losses in return for a political position in the new government; Kim Jong Il was killed by a gunship and therefore Grigory was considered to be the de facto leader but North Korea hours after Grigory assumed leadership.
Grigory was shoved onto a boat and moved to C45 as he waited for his application to be finally approved.

Hello all, i have no idea if this code works because it is using a file that i created using a program which doesn't work (because of a bad record length, i'll have to ask my teacher tomorrow) basically, it opens a random access file (the one that was meant to be created before) and then compares the inputted details from the user to it to make sure the password/username match. please have a look and please tell me if i've done anything wrong  Option Explicit On

Meh. I dislike Rap so much. I KNOW I will be proved wrong but, most of it is about sex, drugs, money, cars, things, etc,. Sometimes they just mumble words and have little to no talent.
a lot of the new rappers, from Young Money, are pretty shit, but listen to Immortal Technique, Lowkey, Mos Def. It's better than metal where all they sing about is killing puppies, nobody understands them and worshipping the devil

Neutrinos can travel faster than light.
Don't listen to media.
Are you aware of the percentage error involved in that experiment? Or, for that matter of fact, the percentage uncertainty?
They did the experiment again and they got the same results, they're going to do the experiment in an American lab to see if the results can be repeated. It might turn out that Einstein was wrong, we just have to wait and see. I heard NASA are looking to recruit pioneers but they will never be able to return to Earth because the US of A is broke lololol.
Not true, why are you all reading on all those shitty news sites? o.O
I wouldn't call BBC a shitty news site

Neutrinos can travel faster than light, maybe we can make a spaceship out of neutrinos!! No, I'm not being serious about that if anyone asks Q_Q
Our only hope is in wormholes, if they can exist (Hawking was wrong about black hole radiation), but to be honest our best bet at interplanetary colonization is Mars; that is way more realistic than Kepler-22b, I heard NASA are looking to recruit pioneers but they will never be able to return to Earth because the US of A is broke lololol.

I'm going to try to deliver what I'm about to say in the nicest way possible. Are you an uneducated inbred moron? Israel is a democratic country, an ally to the United States and most NATO members, and an essential ally in the war for oil - which of course these wars are obviously for. To pave the way for multinational corporations - mainly American - to establish monopolies in foreign, under-developed nations who now have no future of seeing the oil that is rightfully theirs in their new future.
Woah, kid, don't start flaming on here. So basically, you yourself confirmed that the only thing standing in the way of money and oil is Iran, a country inhabited human beings? Wow, I can see who the real moron is, since you seem to think that money is more important than life. Moving onto your next uneducated statement. "...and has been at war with almost every single one of its neighbours." That's neighbors by the way /spelling. You are right in saying this, but Israel is not a war mongering nation. A year after it's creation, in 1948, every single anti-Zionist anti-Jewish Islamic nation surrounding the land of which is religiously, historically, and morally belonging to the Jewish people attacked Israel. Israel fought back, won, and doubled it's land. Later on, they returned the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt - which is now a very reliable ally for Israel.
Oh by the way Mr Grammar Nazi, I'm from the UK, so shhhh And how does Israel morally belong to the Jews? Are you gathering this from the best selling work of fiction of all time, the Bible? Zionism was founded about 100 years ago, I could lay claim to the moon... does that mean I have a right to own it? "the Zionist movement was founded in the late 19th century by secular Jews, largely as a response by Ashkenazi Jews to rising antisemitism in Europe" The political - and soon to be military, in my opinion - conflicts between Israel and Iran have been due to arrogant shitheads that Iran calls military generals going around saying that they can take out Israel in a week. If Israel and Iran go to war, the inevitable result will be the United States of America - a nation dedicated to assisting their allies - joining the war and completely obliterating Iran, a nation with a rich history that goes back two thousand years.
They're saying that because Israel and the US are threatening to air strike their nuclear power programs because "they might be used for W.M.D's" Kinda reminds me of Iraq? All those Iraqi and NATO lives lost in vain... *sigh* And Mr IFollowWorldPolitics, you forgot that Russia is an ally of Iran, and the PR of China is Russia's ally. China own half of the US's industry and all their debt, America would be stupid to declare war on them to save a pathetic state like Israel. Moving onto nuclear missiles and weapons as a whole. Iran has had nuclear power for a long time, but only in the form of energy plants. Recently, with the impending war between Israel - with the U.S. - and Iran, they have been developing a nuclear weapon with intentions to use it against America at the first sign of troop movement, declaration of war. A suicidal move from the "death is the only option" - which seems to be the motto of all Islamic nations in the fucked up wasteland desert of the Middle East - Islamic Republic of Iran who will then be assaulted by the absolutely stunning 26,000 nuclear missile stock that the United States boasts.
Easy on the racist stereotypes darg, some Muslims would find that remark very offensive and I'd like to see you say that to their faces. Buddhists seem to immolate themselves in protest, does that make all Buddhists desire to set themselves on fire? Russia, Iran's ally, has a MUCH larger nuclear stockpile and ICBM's aimed at western Europe Now please, I have a simple request for you and others who post here. At least educate yourself before making posts in which I have to come here and correct you because I happen to pay attention to international affairs with the Islamic Fucked Up Barren Wasteland of Iran ... er I mean the Islamic Republic of Iran.
I just proved you wrong, and at least Iran's economy isn't built up on $15TRN of debt
