Title: 2013-2014, How many times have you ordered from TCSS this year?
Post by: GENERAL GRIEVOUS on January 08, 2013, 09:49:51 PM
The below info is copied from the OG thread at TCSS.  I started this tradition in 2008 and it continues...

As has become the tradition, I am continuing this wonderfully fun thread.  The old one is gonzo into oblivion.  Please use the following classification system of order size when posting:

Quote from: Lord Dottore Matto;159570
Okay okay, thanks for the suggestions there Peanut Gallery, but "The Law Firm of LDM,D.Lex and Gravy must ratify all units of measure prior to their acceptance into the vernacular of saber-parts purchase Braggadocio.


Henceforth, the following conversion table should be used:

4 Rhyen's = 1 Arkai
4 Arkai's = 1 manly
2 Manly's = 1 Ubermanly
2 ubermanly's = Tim's mortgage payment
3 Tim's mortgage payments = 1 LV (LDM/VV)

Quote from: Shadar Al'Niende;160810
So using that conversion table...

1 Rhyen = roughly 1/16th of a Complete Saber
1 Arkai = 4 Rhyen's or 1/4 of a Complete Saber
1 Manly = 4 Arkai's or 1 Complete Saber
1 Ubermanly = 2 Manly's or 2 complete Sabers
1 TMP (Tims Mortgage Payments) = 2 Ubermanlys or 4 Complete Sabers
1 LV = 3 TPM's or 12 Complete Sabers

Remember to post with the spirit in which this thread was created and use the classification system.  Happy sabering and Enjoy. :lol:

2 more Arkais this week.  Needed some chassis pieces to get a feel for them.  Come this 15th (1st day of powder coating) I will hit a new personal best on order size.

The conversion rates are posted at Fx, but 1 Ubermanly= enough parts to build at least 3 full sabers.

According to the initial post, an Ubermanly is (2) full sabers. The excitement of your recent 100 ubermanly achievement must have gotten to you... and isn't the conversion rate 100 Ubermanlies = 1 kitchen remodel? Or swimming pool? (I kid, I kid, please don't hit me!)

My memory hath been addled, lol.  2 sabers is actually what I meant ;)  100 Ubermanlies (there are actually some much larger ones in there) are actually enough to buy a gorgeous new Camaro ZL-1 or a nice mildly used ZO6.
