Do you have any idea how many Ron Lugge's there are?
At least three that I know of. At *LEAST*. And two of those are computer geeks!

Thats one advantage I have. Searching for me on google or groups.google will give you hundreds of thousands of hits but they are all me. Or a few by trolls pretending to be me. We can just be thankful that their databases dont go back farther.

Re: OT: Game Recomendations?
Starhawk, since you seem rather fond of Freelancer, could you point me in the direction of a few good SP mods?

Re: OT: Game Recomendations?
I made a Freelancer spreadsheet/database (attached) that lists all possible trade routes in the game. It lists commodity, start/end locations, start/end sectors, run length, and profit margin. Sortable of course. It's about 6.8Meg unzipped.
The last page has all routes of any length, and the rest of the pages are broken out by number of hops.
You can use it to answer questions such as What is the highest profit run? ($1900, alien organisms[illegal] from RuizBase/OmicronBeta to CambridgeResearchStation/Cambridge, six hops)
What is the highest legal profit run? ($1440, Luxury Food from PlanetCambridge/Cambridge to LuxuryLinerHawaii/Sigma19, six hops)
What is the highest profit in one hop? ($630 Luxury Consumer Goods from either RopongiStation/NewTokyo or PlanetNewTokyo/NewTokyo both to AinuDepot/Hokaido)
And more situational questions like what's the highest profit from where I am right now to anywhere? or to a specific sector or location or distance. Or where can I get the most for my current cargo? Stuff like that.

I've wanted to but it's a rather large download and I'm still on dialup. Broadband users should be able to get it without much trouble, though.
