Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

      This is the best explanation. Annoying voice though.

        NO! DSG will detract from the raw goat herding experience.

          1. The Damascus (Shami) Goat hesitates (I herd quite often).

          2. Only if it gets his goat.

            Good.
            DSG only means i wouldn't have bothered with the Goat option.

            Now i am free to choose whatever door i like.

              Agree. It's important to recognise the game has two decision cycles, with more information presented for the second decision cycle. This information is what should prompt you to swap

                Knowing my luck, the goat will have eaten the GTI by the time I make up my mind which door to open.

                  I saw a goat on the weekend that would eat a GTI. It had a supercharger sticking out of the bonnet, "Pontiac" on the back and a number plate "DINOSR".

                    Depends if it was a South African mounting goat or a timid beast from the Black forest. Wolf in sheeps clothing them German ones...

                        I seem to recall the relevant advertising slogan was "Here comes de Judge ! "

                        I was always impressed with how such large, heavy lumbering beasts could be made to go so fast, just by bunging in an equally huge engine (but don't ask any awkward questions about braking ability, let alone cornering).

                        For those young'uns who are wondering what the hell this is about, google "Pontiac GTO" (from the days when nearly all americans thought that it was their god-given right to burn as much cheap petrol as they liked).

                          Here 'tis It's not only petrol they burnt.



                          There was even a song about GTOs, by Ronnie and the Daytonas.



                          So, Greg, you'd know what "3 deuces and a 4 speed" meant...

                            If I'm not mistaken, the "3 deuces" are known amongst the Mopar crowd as a "6 pack"
