Hey Axe, I've been meaning to ask...now that you've discovered your great-uncle had a daughter while he was in England, do you think it's possible you and Soddball are related? Wouldn't that be enough to make you become a hermit? :mad: :mad: :mad: Soddball, do I owe you a turn? :confused: I can't recommend that book "The Da Vinci Code" highly enough. See if your brain is open to new possibilities, or not. :eek: :eek:

Rune, maybe a little later I could try that. Right now I'm playing a scenario with Lurkur that seems pretty similar. The only problem I'm having is that my Canadian Things go BOOM and nothing happens. Then his German Things go BOOM and my Canadian things go <font size=6>BOOM!!!</font size=6> :mad: :mad: :mad:

WHAT??? That doesn't work in Combat Mission?? I think I want a do-over, especially in our game. :mad: :mad: :mad: I think I'm about Fiefed out. The "guilds" or whatever these gamey buffoons call themselves have taken the fun out of it for me. I'll stick with CMBB and CMAK. You meet a higher class of people here, even if you are all maggots. Don't you wonder how some of these clowns would do in a game of Combat Mission where they were completely on their own? Can you say LOST?

It's just you, you juvenile delinquent! </font>

It's just you, you juvenile delinquent!

On a completely unrelated subject, I just looked through the rankings of Fiefdom. It appears Queen YK2 had some success getting <font size=1>penguins</font size=1> to start in the game, but very little success getting them to continue in it. I see many <font size=1>penguins</font size=1> littering the very bottom of the rankings list. Exactly where they belong, of course.

Hmmm. I might decide to adopt you. </font>

Axe, that is absolutely amazing! Keep us informed as this plays out. Oh, and congratulations on the new addition(s) to your family!

No, it went more like "What fortunate person will you be leaving all of this property and insurance money to?" We couldn't decide on anyone, so we decided not to die instead!

All you maggots waiting for turns from me, please accept my humble apologies. My wife and I met for two grueling hours with a Financial Planner last night. There are few things so numbing as listening to someone go on about life insurance, investment income, and so on and so on. Especially when her calculations were incorrect to begin with. Fortunately, after putting up with you maggots, this particular purgatory didn't seem too terrible, but it put me right out of the mood for starting any CM turns. It's true, I did spend some time in the relatively mindless Fiefdom. I think my brain had already shut down by then.

Dear Kitty, best wishes for your mom's speedy recovery. The Waffles don't take a back seat to anyone in offering moral support in times of need.

Oh come on Soddball, don't let the Man keep you down! I agree there are a lot of things about Fiefdom that need to be completely reinvented. On the other hand, I now play it mainly to aggravate other people who take it so seriously. I've found it's more fun to play against the game itself, instead of against the other players. The Fiefdom world needs more TNT-chucking, curmudgeonly anarchists like you!

Dear Kitty, nice try, but Snarker already got me with that one last week. You'll have to come up with something a little more believable.

Actually it was quoted by none other than The Bard himself... Of course... he may or may not have borrowed it from elsewhere and even used it before on some other unsuspecting listener.. but I like to think he was inspired ...</font>

Why would we want to do a thing like that? Playing Fiefdom, whacking <font size=1>penguins</font size=1>, and chucking angry TNT is lots more fun! I'm sure you prefer working, though. Dear YK2, where did you find the beautiful quotation you're using for your sig line? My wife's business partner has been given about 8 weeks to live (bone cancer), and I was curious to find the source of those pearls of wisdom.

Finding other weird people does NOT mean that YOU are any less weird yourself! Unfortunately, I have to keep reminding myself of that fact.

Dear YK2, I really like that site. My longest was 3620.3, and the shortest was 22.5 (I had another that was 22.7). I enjoy hitting the penguin so far out of sight that you end up waiting and waiting for it to come back down. The other thing I like about this site is that when you hit a line drive, the distance markers just flash by.

<font size=6>HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AXE-MAGGOT!!!</font size=6> I'm glad you mentioned it, because I can't remember anybody's birthday. Hope you and Paula had a great time today.

Whoa, this thread is taking a depressing turn. My Waffle friends don't exist? To cheer up the existence-challenged, here's a little tune for the evening. Think about it, there must be higher love Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above Without it, life is a wasted time Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine Things look so bad everywhere In this whole world, what is fair? We walk blind and we try to see Falling behind in what could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's that higher love I keep thinking of? Worlds are turning and we're just hanging on Facing our fear and standing out there alone A yearning, and it's real to me There must be someone who's feeling for me Things look so bad everywhere In this whole world, what is fair? We walk blind and we try to see Falling behind in what could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's that higher love I keep thinking of? Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring be a higher love I could rise above on a higher love I will wait for it I'm not too late for it Until then, I'll sing my song To cheer the night along Bring it...Oh bring it... I could light the night up with my soul on fire I could make the sun shine from pure desire Let me feel that love come over me Let me feel how strong it could be Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Bring me a higher love Where's that higher love I keep thinking of? Thank you Steve Winwood!!

Dear Kitty, while it is true that I know just about everything ( ), I have no idea when or even if Fiefdom will ever reappear. Maybe the Yorick/Holy Roller crowd kidnapped nPawn so no more games could get started. I think you and YK2 had them worried about the next round and the massive reinforcements you could throw at them. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Since none of you maggots have come through with any suggestions for a gamey, unbalanced scenario I can play against Kitty, I'll have to find one myself. Boy, ask for help with a simple little task and everybody disappears. I'll have to remember that trick! It could come in handy some day.

Or maybe not. It's been three hours, and no TNT has been chucked by the amazing Becket and the even amazinger Berli. Surely cooler heads have not prevailed here? What a letdown! :mad: Kitty, please try to drag Mace out of the saloon. It is Sunday, you know. Doesn't he ever give his liver a day of rest? :confused:

Dear Kitty, you are quite right. There is no reason why either of us should deprive this gang of maggoty reprobates the pleasure of our company. The punishments were a MasterGoodale (the maggot) innovation: he always wanted to dictate peoples' sig lines. Unfortunately, he ended up with far more losses than victories, and correspondingly few sig lines. We will play for the sport; for the challenge; dare I say, for the fun of just playing a good game. No penalty to the loser (Mace already has that title sewed up because, after all, he does live on the bottom of the earth). Now, can someone recommend a piquant little CMAK scenario suitable for Kitty's requirements? Personally I'd prefer a scenario that, in the likely event of yet another defeat, I can proclaim is completely unbalanced and gamey. Pictures of Guns and Roses in the Cheery Waffle thread? We have indeed fallen upon lean times. Who's next, Quiet Riot?? You'd think we were in that other place, where people who have nothing to say post pictures.

:mad: <font size=5> :mad: I :mad: KNEW :mad: IT!!! :mad: </font size=5> :mad:

Let's make the stakes even higher. The loser can only post in the dreaded General Forum for a week. That's something no sane person would want to endure. :eek: :eek: :eek: Why not? Seems like every time I'm the Allied player the Axis has so many Panthers they line up to get shots at my Shermans. You of all people should know that, maggot. By a strange twist of fate, when I'm the German I seem to always get Pz IIIs and Pz IVs with stubby little popguns that won't even dent a Valentine. GRARGHRARRGHRARRGH!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
