It is really sad the level of math skills we find in today's younger crowd. As my initial take on you have proven correct (Georgian), I would like to pass on some additional educational information, to wit; the numbering system. I will use an analogy: Person One (we'll call him Jim Boggs) gets all of the answers right on his test and is given a score of 100. Person Two (we'll call him v42) misses every question on his test and gets a score of -100. Still with me? Good. Now then, the tests are returned, and in a feat of logic that would challenge Joe Shaw, the young v42 jumps up and announces: "Note Jim Boggs' test score. Coincidence?" Sad it is I tell you. Although, I would most definitely be in agreement with your third sentence. </font>

Note Steve's member number. Coincidence? I think not!

Please let me know which specific aspect of my instructions you did not understand and I will endeavour to express it in simpler terms. [ July 18, 2003, 10:32 AM: Message edited by: v42below ]

I'm sure they will, just as soon as they sell all that Iraqi oil.

As per my earlier e-mails to you and the information provided in the last paragraph of my post at the top of page 3 of this thread: 1. Unless that is a CMBO scenario, <font size=5>Sod Off</font>. 2. If it is a CMBO scenario, send me a setup. 3. If you're just pissing around and actually have no intention of playing me, see bold text in 1.

Georgia had spent a long time in the empire, before this CIS nonsense started and will eventually return to its rightful owner, as will the rest of the former USSR republics, along with Poland, Finland, Alaska and San Francisco.

There's no need to shout. Unless your absent minded self has simply forgotten about the caps lock key. Just in case, here it is:

BTW, if I understand correctly, you are currently in Russia. I will, therefore, forgive you for any insults you may produce wuth the help of those little fat piggies you call fingers (I doubt you use your brain, or even have one for that matter), since, no doubt, they are simply an attempt to hide the feeling of low self-esteem. I'm sure that, having taken your first look on the streets of the crappiest little town in Siberia, you would have realised that compared to the uggliest doyarka [another peace of trivia] you look like the talking horse from the circus. You know: "And now, the world famous talking horse!!!" [The lights go on and the public sees an old horse hanging 20m above the centre of the ring. A cement slab lies directly below it] "Drum roll please!!!" [trrrrrrrrrrr... the rope is cut and the horse swooshes down into the slab with a loud THUD, It staggers to it's feet and slowly opens it's mouth] "Oh, dear God, when the f*** will I finally die?" "The talking horse, chaps and chapesses!!" [ July 17, 2003, 04:51 AM: Message edited by: v42below ]

[serious] Joe My original post on this thread was meant to be the only post on this thread. I saw the word peng, did some research and found a lot of the original posts, which I dutifully read and enjoyed. I thought I'd bring back some of the style in a short post by a n00b for a bit of fun. However, despite the fact that I did not insult or challenge anyone, NG felt the need to make fun of my adopted country and my sexual orientation, encouraged by Nidan1 and yourself. I had some spare time this week, and thought I'd enjoy the peng thread while I could, in good fun. I never took any of the insults to heart, and I hope neither did you. After all, this is the peng thread and If you look over my posts, I doubt you will find any violations of the rules of the MBT. So, with all that said, I will continue my annoying posts, although perhaps at a slower rate, to keep in shape for the time when when my copy of CMBB arrives and I am ready to attempt my first challenge. I am sharpenning my skill by playing PBEM CMBO against my friend and the occasional hotseat CMBB game at his place. So, until next time, ta-ta[/serious] <font color=blue size=4>Translation for</font> <font color=maroon size=1> cesspooers </font> <font color=red size=8>SOD OFF</font> [ July 17, 2003, 01:57 AM: Message edited by: v42below ]

Oh dear what a pity, no email address and no "recognizable" location ... I suppose we'll just have to ignore this one lads. By the way, V00above is NOT sent to Coventry and MAY be addressed ... though why you'd want to escapes me. Joe </font>

Technically, they should have both Maori and Pakeha (NZers of European descent) voices. However, since I doubt BTF will differentiate sounds for different battalions, I don't think it's fair to only have Maori voices. Unfortunately NZ is my adopted home, and I don't really have the NZ accent. BTW - Having spent a bit of time in both countries, I'd rather here "fush'n'chups" than "feeeeeeeeeesh'n'cheeeeeeeeeeps". Australians remind me of Ren from Ren'n'Stimpy (Steeeeeempy) when they talk. [ July 16, 2003, 08:30 PM: Message edited by: v42below ]

Right back at you.

[scribbles something in the Paddock Book of Listless Plonkers... ] Yer on me list... under... [scribble, scribble, scribble] ...hmmmm [scribble] Kokos [... and with a *honk* and at a trot something does several turns around the Paddock to a croaky Sullivan, nostrils vibrato forte] As some day it may happen that a victim must be found, I've got a little list--I've got a little list Of society offenders who might well be underground, And who never would be missed--who never would be missed! There's the pestilential nuisances who write for autographs-- All people who have flabby hands and irritating laughs-- All children who are up in dates, and floor you with 'em flat-- All persons who in shaking hands, shake hands with you like _that_-- And all third persons who on spoiling tete-a-tetes insist-- They'd none of 'em be missed--they'd none of 'em be missed! CHORUS. He's got 'em on the list--he's got 'em on the list; And they'll none of 'em be missed--they'll none of 'em be missed *sniff* thrilling, bleedin' thrilling... one just can't get enough of existence... assumed or otherwise (which isn't a lot)... its all just too dreadful and weary when one has to compile a list of one. Yeknod </font>

<font color=blue size=4>Thank you for reminding me of how much I enjoyed watching a basketball team from a country with a population of 4 million people (New Zealand) make it into the semifinals of the world cup, leaving the behind a giant like the US in the quater finals. Thank you.</font>

A warm welocme to the world of CM, I hope you'll like it here. This place really is all you need to sharpen your skill. Re your question: What everybody above me said, but first and foremost READ THE MANUAL cover to cover. It really is good. v42below [ July 16, 2003, 02:11 AM: Message edited by: v42below ]

Indeed, since the Russian word for "bitch" is "suka" and the SU in SU-76 stood, I think, for Sukhov (could be wrong on that one - anyone know for sure?)

[And from a shaded corner of the paddock where grey and heavy beasts drowse amid the spectacular summer parade of odd things that fly, crawl and bite their merry way to a stiff wintry terminus something stirs. And from the dappled shadows a languid tail swings at some of the more annoying things that crawl, buzz and nip... and there seems to be rather a lot of 'em this summer] *sniff* the crayons weren't thick enough... and some need to be very thick... and that's yer giant sequoia thickness to reflect yer...er... umm... thickness. ... and I shouldn't think it tastes very good either... [thinks a bit] ...that's yer list, not yer sequoias which might pose a few difficulties *sniff* ... for some. [gazes forlornly across the sun-drenched vista noting the general cacophany of clicking and unnecessary movement brought on by the need to scurry] Well, I shouldn't be surprised... summer... *sniff* ... pathetic Don't suppose yer have a carrot? Eh? Just a small one? Mini carrot? Bonzai carrot? Bother... I'll eat the list? Yeknod </font>

No it won't. But if you're like me and can be botheres, you'll make separate folders so save the Russian buildings (original) and German buildings (mod). When playing in Germany you will install the mod. When playing in Russia you will reinstall the originals. v42below

I would also be interested in a list. I hope you wrote it down - with your age and all.

I didn't know cows made cheescakes. However does she hold a knife in those hooves? [ July 15, 2003, 10:31 PM: Message edited by: v42below ]
