WE ARE MOVING!!

Posted by Mark Stevens on Friday, July 16, 2010, In : general chat n ting. 
Hey people

You may have noticed that the site has not been getting updated as much as normal.  There is a reason (apart from malsta being slack).

The SBS website is moving.  The new site is up and running at:

www.wix.com/malsta2010/sbs1

This site will stay around until everything is moved over, however most of the news updates etc. will now be over on the new site.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all the people who have helped on this site and who have made it work through the last fe...

Just An Idea -Clan Night 4?

Posted by Mark Stevens on Wednesday, June 30, 2010, In : MAG News 
Ok, I have had a thought.

Clan Night 4 - Valor Re - Union.

Here is how I see it going down. After several of us vetted to SVER for the double XP wkend it is time for us all to get back together again.

Some people are almost ready to vet back to valor anyway, some of us (myself included) are not (due to low scoring on the wkend lol!).

Those who are not quite at the stage to get back on their regular ac. can set up a valor ac. for the night/permanently (I've already done this - 2minute job...

Clan Night 3 - Interdiction Night

Posted by Mark Stevens on Thursday, June 17, 2010, In : MAG News 
Ok, to celebrate the first real piece of DLC and new game mode/maps it seems only fitting to have an interdiction night.

The dates suggested are the 25 or 26/06/2010.

I know its short notice but I am pretty sure that we can fit it in there somehow!

Please get back to either me or MoonEagle via forums, facebook, email etc. to let us know which day is best.

Hope you all are well

Just pondering the idea of trying to organise a full on clan night where we try and get at least a whole squad together, set aside some hours and hit all the game modes.

Gives everyone a chance to get used to leadership roles without the risk of being kicked, and gives us all a chance to get a bit more stuck into the different game modes just to mix it up.

For You Sir!

First you need to wash the potatoes and dry them very thoroughly with a cloth, then leave them aside to dry as much as possible. If you're using ready-washed potatoes you need not do this, as the high heat will purify them.

Next, prick the skins a few times with a fork, then put a few drops of olive oil over each one and rub it all over the skin. After that, rub in some crushed salt – this will draw out the moisture from the skin and, together with the oil, provide more crunchin...
