Are You trying to make a pass at me ? Well I have nothing to do anyway , so let's go . BTW feelings lobotomy ,my dear .My brain is already for 20 years in formaline in British Museum. </font>

Close one eye, and you will only see one MG.

Check your Email, twit, spend less time in fluffdom, and more time on fire in the desert.

Last night I fired up my CMBO CD, and began playing the Stoumont Operation as the Germans. It has been over a year since I have played CMBO, and it was great to get back to the game that got me hooked into this series. While CMBB and CMAK are great games, CMBO seems to have an intensity that neither of the other two have. Especially when artillery starts raining down on you, and the screen shake is on, and your poor pixeltruppen start heading for cover. While the new modeling for infantry reaction to being under fire is probably more realistic, the old CMBO game flow is a lot more FUN. You are not spending each turn stopping your men from sneaking off the map, or running frantically INTO enemy fire. I really enjoyed seeing the CMBO mods again, you guys that do that kind of work are to be commended, and when you compare the original issue of CMBO and then see how the mods had changed it, the transformation is stunning. I can't wait to get back to it tonight....well after I get all my CMBB and CMAK PBEMs out.

Did the dog eat your Emails?

Please Email it to me, tell me which side has the overwhelming odds in its favor and I;ll take that one before I send it to Radley [ March 26, 2004, 09:24 AM: Message edited by: Nidan1 ]

Lovely morning.....left the thread last night to get out some turns....got distracted and didnt pop back in till now. Seems like a bit of a dust up has occurred, that to say the least... I'm not an Olde One , nor a long time regular, but I have been around for a couple of years, and I do have something to say.....it seems that we all have been on somewhat of a political and personal tight rope these last months. Now I don't claim to have the type of personal relationships that some of you have with each other, but I have played games and chatted with a lot of you for a couple of years, so I'll put in my two cents on that basis, if you don't like it, too bad, then mine will be the only post in here. Let's keep the politics and personal likes and dislikes out of here...save that for the GF if you must. We all have strong feelings about things, and sometimes find ourselves on opposite sides of issues....fine....thats what the ability to debate freely which our society gives us. I have always though that what is said in here, should always be taken with a grain of salt...if that is no longer true...then we should close up shop....if our feelings get hurt in here, then maybe we should suck it up for a time, and let it pass....if that's not possible, then take it off line. This Thread is open to anyone wanting to come in and deal with its unique nonsense, if their are personal issues between Pengersdon't air them here...work them out or don't...your choice, but please don't expose the rest of us to it. We all have our ideals about what this Thread should or should not be, but it is really only the collective typings of a bunch of folks with a common interest, and enjoyment of fun and wargaming. Personalities come and go, but the core of this Thread remains, regardless of who is posting at any one time. Let us not cause the demise of the MBT on account of perceived or otherwise emnities. But if that is the goal, then so be it. I am sure their are loads of posters on this Forum that would rejoice in our self-destruction. BTW Happy Birthday Lady YK2 [ March 26, 2004, 10:10 AM: Message edited by: Nidan1 ]

But then again it may be....pay no attention to that last one. Rules are simple....if you're an SSN, just keep your mouth shut awhile and figure things out. If you are capable of that...then challenge someone of your own lowly ranking....if you can't realize how low that really is, then just SOD OFF. Don't come in here spouting like a beached whale, say something with panache, use the language as it was meant to be used, but refrain from expletives, and other verbage that would truly alert us to your lack of wit. Be always polite to the LADIES OF THE POOL, and do not incur their wrath. That said....just SOD OFF!!!

Rheeeeeeeeeeee this, inferior human!!!! [ March 25, 2004, 07:32 PM: Message edited by: Nidan1 ]

Give me an old fashioned Romulan disrupter over a phaser anyday....but seriously folks...its getting too serious in here, but I agree with MrSpanker ....what was it he said again? Real men don't eat quiche? something like that ,I think. A woman simply is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from woman, and it is confirmed only by other men. . . . Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all. no, thats not it....oh well, time to make dinner.

Shane, I sent a turn to your old email address last night...let me know if you got it. (it was a good one for you...hopefully we have lost contact}

Nothing's changed as far as I can see, you're still here. Don't you have nose hairs to pluck or somefink?

HA!!! that coming from a Summa cum Laude of the Ohio Public School social promotion society. El pijaro mas pendejo, sabe volar Eh Boo?, run that through Babelfish, you linguistically inept, Johnny-no-stars!!!

Hang in there Dale, keep digging, you might discover one redeeming quality. </font>

Well... Dear Queen , you will have to ask him that when he returns from exile.

He is watching!!!!

Hiram glad to hear you are on the road to recovery, just be advised that it is only one wrong turn to the road to damnation.

So are the French.

Shut yer goppin' gob!

Lol Boo .. so funny to hear you use that term... I haven't heard it since childhood and always thought it was Glasgow slang!!!! Please enlighten me.. </font>

What a stoopid question, oh wait it's dalem , makes sense now.

I propose to the The Powers that Be or whatever, Shaw included . That the SSN known as stikkypixie, or whatever, be raised to the honorable level of Serf of the Pool , or whatever, he having displayed the proper respect, inanity, and utter stupidity, as usually required for Serfdom in the MBT , or whatever.
