Egg Propelled Launcher fun facts · · 461 likes

first some ground work.
The MP40 has a rate of fire of 3-5
IRL the cyclic rate of fire of the MP40 is around 500 rounds per min

the EPL has a rate of fire of 255-555
this means that on the high end the EPL has a cyclic rate of fire of 55,500 rpm (this would be different depending on which weapon is started with. I choose MP40 because it gives high numbers)

At its max the price of eggs reached around $5 a dozen.
also The weight of an egg varies between 50 and 70 g
So...
in one min you could fire $23,125 and 3885000g (8565 pounds).
A hen can produce 250 eggs a year. So in a min you are shooting 222 years worth of eggs.
This is .04% of the yearly egg production of the US

The EPL is no yolk

pain.

pain inspires fear
conflict brings pain
however pain is the body's most helpful signal
it prevents you from injury (health) and makes you stop and rest (vigor)

Jail is too small · · 60 likes

Based on the comparison with the Speedway we can estimate that the 4 long cell blocks in the Torn jail are about 400 ft long and maybe 50 ft wide and the 3 shorter ones are maybe 300 by 50 ft.

Since no prisoners can interact with each other the cells must be solitary though close by. The total surface area of all the cell blocks is 125,000 square feet. This comes out to with 3867 cells to 32 square feet per cell. That is a 5 by 5 box. The US minimum is 70 square feet. And those often hold multiple people.

So contrary to this original post, Torn's prisons are incredibly cramped.

edit: from flight facts The highest number of jailings in Torn's history occured on 6th September 2014 with 3867 individual imprisonments within the space of 24 hours. Torn's thugs have attempted to beat this tally on several occasions, but have yet to hit the felonious heights of 2014.
Changed the math.

Told I'm alcoholic? · · 2 likes

it depends on the relative amounts compared to the other titles. If you are top #1000 for alcohol and #1100 for searching the dump you will get alcoholic. Since your account is young you will have low stats in all categories so 1 or 2 beers can push you over. If you want to change it just pick one of the other titles and do that

Lichess is a great site but it has a much smaller pool of players so it is considered “harder” (a lower lichess elo is equivalent to a higher chess.com elo). Lichess’ analysis feature is also more in depth but also less beginner friendly. 

chess.com is probably better at teaching chess if you want to learn and do lessons but if you just want to learn by playing either one is great. Or try any of the thousands of chess apps and websites. 

be warned though. The Mac chess app and the delta airlines chess bot are really high elo and will destroy you

As a new player what job should I get? · · 1 like

I think it also depends I. The type of director. Some want to help new players and will teach the game or help them get started. Some won’t explain anything. I started in an amusement park (not the best starting spot) but the director taught me about trains and how the stats work and set me up well. So player companies can have a edge there

As a new player what job should I get? · · 1 like

the problem is that you need some working stats to get into a not bad company. so often it is best to go city job for a bit then switch to player run until you can speedrun the city jobs then go back
