  1. Perhaps we should not put words in our Michael's mouth.

    I agree entirely, accuracy is important. My, I wet myself when I, Michael tore open the package and gawped at the mind-warping fantastic engineering feat of spiral-bound goodness that I just had to stroke and lick all 111 pages (including the index) just to make sure it all wasn't a dream. And the larger than BN typeface just made me drop down limp in a pool of gushing sensations that ripped repeatedly through my limp, helpless body.

    Michael does have a tendency to undersell himself.

  2. Meanwhile, in the Outre Boards, our very own beloved and respected Michael has been busy offering some critical information:

    My CM:FI disc arrived yesterday, and it came with a very nice 111 page (counting the index) manual. This one is printed black & white in an easy to read typeface that is about 50% larger than the BN typeface. Another nice feature is that it is spiral bound so that you can set it down without losing your place.

    Now, interesting as this is, I thought I might wait some weeks to check if the larger than BN typeface has helped with reading and the spiral bound format has helped with turning the pages and Michael hasn't lost his place? Furthermore, whether Michael has got past any cellophane wrapper issues and figured out the way to get to the disc?

    I feel sharing this information is a worthy of new a thread - such an essential service is commendable and, well, I'm just moved that one of us, a mere, humble Cesspoolian is making the effort to state THE FREAKIN OBVIOUS deserves recognition.

  3. Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?

    He got an ice pick

    That made his ears burn

    Whatever happened to dear old Lenny?

    The great Elmyra, and Sancho Panza?

    Whatever happened to the heroes?

    Whatever happened to the heroes?

    Whatever happened to all the heroes?

    All the Shakespearoes?

    They watched their Rome burn

    Whatever happened to the heroes?

    Whatever happened to the heroes?

    No more heroes any more

    No more heroes any more

  4. Meanwhile, a certain Michael we know and love has been making some interesting statements in the outre boards

    Back in the CMBO days the ATGs were pretty dang impressive. I learned never to buy less than a full platoon of tanks. Sending one tank against even just a single ATG meant that the tank invariably died before I got any use out of it.

    Now, this may give the impression of familiarity with the game and, to the ignorant and stupid, that he may have even hit the play button!

    HA! I scoff and *honk* at even the thought - we know better! He is being economical with the actuality! Fiction, pure fiction!

  5. Well, I say this Steve person is one macho mano the sort that like to rub snow on his nipples before breakfast and out stare varmints of all shapes and sizes. I like the cut of his jib. He's feisty, plucky and would stick his head into a bowl full of embers without blinking.

    He's butch with snarls.

    As for the other Steve, the one with a friend called Pete, Battlefrump Steve.. well, not too sure about that one. I mean has he followed the rules and got an email address? Does he even play the game, I think that is quite important? Can he challenge like he's got a pair and be nice to the Ladies, eh? And what this Beetlefrap Home of the Mother Superiors about, eh?

    All a bit suspect if you ask me

  6. One really cannot invite a sociopath to a civilized tea party and then expect to eat all the sandwiches before moving on in an orderly fashion to the cakes and hold the cups in the correct way and engage in polite conversation about annual sprout crop, the demise of the Euro, the plague of LIBOR rate price fixing, hand pistols that resemble all the uncanny accuracy of javelin missiles over 2km in certain war games and is it possible to live in a jar and meet the very special soul brain and what happens next when the very other special brain in a jar turns up? and Scunthorpe and other interesting topics.

    It just cannot be done.

    Nature? Nurture? Quite possibly both, why restrict the options?

    Its just another one appearing on the stage to dance and tap in the immortal Battlefront has Talent X Factor has Gone a Bit Missing Like a Hole in the Head which just makes this just a special, special place for one to just lean against a tree and nibble twigs.

  7. I blame the Illuminati.

    I was just having a quick chat with them over tea and carrots when the topic of London Olympics 2012 Legacy came up. I said using the athletics arena as a holding compound for future servitude, although contributing massively to sustainable development of E. London wasn't exactly what Pierre de Frédy, Baron de Coubertin had in mind as an Olympics ideal. They, quite reasonably I thought, countered with well, with a moustache like the Baron's are you seriously suggesting he isn't one of the "special ones", stay away from him we will awake him later.

    As we moved on to the crumpets I did suggest that we can use as many Web links as we wanted and they said, yeh, okay, all links go to the Zeta mothership currently holding geostationary positioning over Scunthorpe, it won't matter a jot when we scramble your brains with microwave transmissions.

    Fair enough, sounds all reasonable to me.
