Stuka my old chap they still could not prove or pin me on that 1987 Hamster fiasco... who the hell new the little buggers couldn't fly... I was mis-informed.

well I've been doing some beta testing for BTS and I have to say the graphics are damn cool! all with the ATI graphics card too! Scattered woods in light fog... But I think BTS took the hamster thing to seriously, I didn't get a possitive ID on the units till I was 5m away from the fuzzy little buggers.

MMMM... Mensch?

HA her flamethrower team is wiped out and her squad by the flag.. hope looks good D+4:00 my shcreck takes two shots at her hopless HT she moved up to 45m! a kill for sure..noooo it misses and the crew daintely put alot of breathing holes in the schreck team wiping it out... my LMG surrenders to her HQ squad and my my.. I look to see what I have and its 8 guys running for the hills.. D+5:00 she cuts down another three guys and I surrender. (looking for a paper bag to put on my head.. my wife is doing a victory dance and woop wooping around the house!) she wins 89pts to 11pts I had 2 troops ok (ran off the board) and 5 troops captured (the rest lay dying or wounded on the battle field) so were do I sign up for the peng award. wait it gets better.. second game (I'll make this brief..

puha! I laugh in your general direction... here and there from all those infantry bits of yours. you have not scrached me yet not a bit.. still company strong and tiger still fuctioning (although reeking of schnapps). if you look I think Im holding 70% victory points.. surrender.. I like your aussi humor... I'm still awaiting your surrender and I throw one on the Barbi for you if you do.

I'm more interested in how many of my troops I wacked with my own arty. =) or how many baguettes and bottles of wine your troops downed per minute. Not to mention your favorate flambé-o-hamster manouver, what temperature it was, etc...

U-571 I was very disapointed in shameless nationalistic propaganda in my eyes... I was hoping for a "Das Boot" film but was sadly misguided.

hey sledge I got a tip there is a button on the CM game called shortcuts if you look there is a combination control-U its for surrender if you click it you'd make my day =) von lucke pop your five units hiding in the woods and take the hill I have with the flag. Stuka.. what can I say..better not say anything aside muhahahaha?

von lucke my friend unlike you who makes a living collecting donations from people on the street so that you can buy that next bag of chips to play CM all day I have a job... ok not anymore damn.... hey do you know the good spots to ask for change?

my group is halfway through almost and if they all surrender to me then the C group will be finished. =)

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by JeffC: Off topic ... What exactly is the origin of the phrase "blows chunks"? I've heard it a number of times (in the U.K.) but have been afraid to ask ... Ta. Jeff.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> well jeff blowing chunks refers to those bite sized morsels from that burger you ate before going on say a drinking fest. Naturaly after becomming quite intoxicated (drunk as a skunk - dont ask me how a skunk can get drunk it's another saying) you may Hurl (Blow, throw-up). Naturaly that burger comes with the package in "chunks" thus the saying blowing chunks. Well class I hope you are totaly discusted now and never want to eat a burger before drinking unless you want to see those "chunks". -Prof. Stupid [This message has been edited by mensch (edited 09-28-2000).]

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Melloj: Mensch, stuka... status update? how far along are we in the first round?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Not terribly far, someone whose name starts with M and rhymes with 'trench' is slower than an asthmatic snail at returning files Stuka you ingrate your just upset I have torched about everything that moves on the battlefield.. surrender will you! I should send you a few hamsters by for a ride in the van..hehe.. I can get off a turn or two a day at most. naturally if someone is online at night with icq I can get off at least 15 turns a night (which stuka found out)... so... fact 1. I work 10-13 hours a day more so this month. 2. I come home do a round or two a night if they are there... then crash. 3. wake up see if the pbems are returned copy them to my zip to take them at home. 4. I cant play at work less loosing my job.. which would be ok if everyone would pitch in and at least cover me 6000,- DM a month 5. get icq and meet me at night. 6. take #4 in cosideration please.

*dig dig* ……… ah there you are. *punt*

hey von Lucke oll chap.. me at work right now.. I can post at work but no playing allowed oh well **** month with deadlines arrgghh... well got to make money some how, aside robbing banks.. but I'm not at that point yet.
