    Well thanks gents. And my folks were afraid after my time in the gaol I would never amount to anything. They'll be so proud.

    Oh by the way did I mention I am originally from Phila. Mr Shaw, Mr Shaw are you okay?

    I believe I covered that in the OP sburke (spelt but not bolded)' there are no "isms" tolerated here, even one so vile and degrading as someone who is an Iggles fan.

    I have high hopes for you lad ... But don't push your luck.

    You see lads, once again my judgement regarding SSNs has proven infallible. Not only does sburke (spelt but not bolded) ask respectful questions about his duties, he then makes thoughtful suggestions ... in this case it's a stupid suggestion, we drink what we damned well please thank you very much, but that's how he learns so in this case I'll not apply the *BOOT* (can't be too careful what with the pitiful example set by the NFL ... Speaking of which my Beloved Dallas Cowboys play today ... but I digest). And I note with pleasure that he's already added the Serf tag to his sig line.

    As to his question regarding where to empty the pissbucket ... It's emptied where it's always been emptied ... I hope that clears up any question he may have.

    We do need to find a worthy opponent for the lad though, we can't judge his performance unless he, you know, performs.

    Yours in Justicariatness,

    Sir Joe Shaw, JFLPCT

    Lads, I like the cut of this sburqa's gibe ... I therefore and hereby and towit propose him as Serf to the CessPool as a hole. Now of course this doesn't mean that I've decided to take him to Squire, far from it. No he still has to show his mettle and assure us that he has what it takes ... and considering that NG Cavscout made it we can safely assume that it will take very little indeed.

    Obviously as the Knight who proposed him as Serf I have first rights of refusal should some other Knight wish to take him to Squire.

    Therefore, be it hereby know to one and all that sburke (spelt but not bolded) is now and shall remain a Serf to the Cesspool as a hole with all the privileges and responsibilities thereunto accoutermented ... whatever ... to him. Primarily his duties will consist of carrying the piss bucket for his betters. However, he is now FAR above the mewling herd of SSNs and Outreboarders.

    So let it be written, let it be done.

    Sir Joe Shaw, JFLPCT

    There are no "true" Olde Ones rune, there are only Olde Ones and none shall take their place while I, YOUR Beloved Justicar for Life of the Peng Challenge Thread still draw breath. I AM the Protector of the Traditions of this the one and only Cesspool and thus shall it ever be.

    And it wasn't your maps that we feared as much as the platoons of Panzercookie Girl Scouts you introduced to "balance" your so-called scenarios.

    Tautological statement. -10 points.

    You'll be taking remedial Logic here pretty soon, Bub, unless you knuckle down more.

    And being the knuckle-dragger you are, that should pose no problem for you.

    Far be it from me to stick up for someone as disreputable as NG Cavscout but there's nothing tautological about his statement, those descriptions are all mutually exclusive and ... wait a minute ... What the hell am I doing.

    Stop rubbing my ass

    ... {snipped} ...

    Sburka ... I don't normally pay attention to the mewlings and pathetic patter of SSNs, but in this case I must say ... nicely done. Of course it was in response to a post from Nidan1and we can hardly expect HIM to pay much attention to what he types ... all those roundhouse kicks to the head he took over the years as a "martial artist" can't be good for cognition ... but nicely done.

    Now be careful not to overstep your bounds, remember to sound off as if you have a pair but not ABOUT your pair.

    Keep it up and by Gawd you may be proposed as Serf to the CessPool by some drunken lout of a Knight ... luckily for you we have PLENTY of those.

    Just for the record, Joe Shaw is a slimy, no good, gamey, bastiche. It is also his birthday today, so let's all give him a big, rousing, MBT raspberry.

    ppppfffftttthhhhhh

    There, now, I hope you choke on the smoke of my beautiful burning Tiger.

    Which you drove, unsupported in a dense urban enviornment, into the heart of my infantry. I suppose if you had been a National Guard ARMORED Cavalry Scout you might have known better than that. Granted you played hell with my infantry ... who distracted you long enough for my SU122 to get a SIDE shot on your Tiger.

    Oh ... thanks for the birthday wishes.

    Jeb Stuart was a hack. Now Nathan Bedford Forrest, that was cavalry commander. His later life antics notwithstanding, his record as a true cavalry leader is unsurpassed in my humble opinion.

    If the Stuart had done his job in the days leading up to Gettysburg and actually been Lee's eyes and ears, instead of gallivanting about seeking headlines, the Civil War might have taken a totally different course.

    As for actually bringing some armor to a battle, I need something to counter your gamy (stolen from me I might add) tactics like throwing all that SMG infantry at me in our Red Thunder city battle.

    I wanted to give you an opportunity to actually WIN a game (Chess doesn't count) so I allowed the system to purchase on my behalf. It's not as if I deliberately purchased all that SMG infantry.

    As to Stuart, the only way for Lee to have won at Gettysburg would have been to have had Jackson still commanding his Corps. And even then it would still have been a near thing. Longstreet was right about Gettysburg and Lee was wrong.

    I'll give you your point on Forrest, he was a superb cavalry commander ... again notwithstanding the other facets of his life.

    I should like to commend NG Cavscout for the bold step of actually CHALLENGING someone here on the ... you know ... Peng CHALLENGE Thread.

    Granted it was two of the lesser lights of the MBT ... dimmer bulbs as it were, but it is a challenge and that's what this was always intended to be.

    In view of that I should report that in our two games of CM NG Cavscout bought a Tiger in one and three MK IIIs to another. What kind of cavalry trooper would do that? Now a 222 and perhaps the odd 251 would be a fitting tribute to the traditions of the cavalry, but a Tiger and MK IIIs ... Jeb Stuart must be rolling in his grave.

    ... {snipped} ... Well ng cavscout if it is satisfaction you want, it is what you will get, in spades!
    No, no, he wants to play Combat Mission, that's a whole different game than Spades. See Spades is a CARD game while Combat Mission is a computer game. There are other significant differences but let's keep it simple since it's you I'm working with at this point.

    www.psych.org/ Click here Joe it will give you the number of the 24 hour Alzheimer's Help Line.

    I'll give you this Nidan1 unlike some here you followed my primary rule when quoting someone! You used the words as actually written without changing the words to make your point. Of course it was completely by accident since there's no way in hell you'd have been able to understand the rule but by Gawd you did it.

    Well done say I, well done.

    Because Nidan1 I have dedicated myself to a life of service. And much like the alien spaceship that came and jump started the evolution of humans in the movie 2001 a Space Odyssey, I volunteer my time in here so that hopefully one day unfortunates like you may aspire to better things than scratching yourselves and drooling into a bucket.

    He's using a bucket now? Well this IS progress then.

    Boo Radley, scraping gum off the bottom of the table is a metaphor for any task more appetizing than coming in here and dealing with you lot. Attempting to decy... diciph..... puzzle out what you and the band of merry missing links that abound in here are trying to communicate with your clicks, hoots, and tooth clackings, bears a strong resemblance to one of the labors of Hercules, you know, the big muscly Greek guy.....

    Joe Shaw, didn't you have him take a test or something for his job as backup Justicar? Pile blocks in a tower, pick out prime numbers, correctly spell the word "Idjit", something? Or did you just hand it over to him as compensation for a line on a local orphanage that was behind on its mortgage?

    I have never claimed to be perfect ... Others may have chosen to say so but it wasn't me. So no, there were no tests involved, doubtless I was so desperate for some help that I hoped he would rise to the occasion. In fact I couldn't get him to rise to the daylight, he spent all his time conked out on the cot in the Justicariate office.

    It was, I've said it before a stupendous error.

    When he says he works in advertising, he means he does letterbox drops of junk mail.

    Noba.

    Now that's just not true ... Letterbox drops of junk mail have been proven to work ... I doubt his employers would trust him with something that might work, certainly based upon his performance here he can't be trusted with much more than putting him on bucket and mop duty.
