Bullethead Posted February 5, 2000 Share Posted February 5, 2000 Troops- Once upon a time, I had to sit for WAY too long in the back of a truck that was stuck in a traffic jam in a minefield while overs from a firefight immediately ahead landed all around. Waiting patiently for CM to be released reminds me very much of that experience . So, to pass the time, I suggest we play a game the guys in my truck thought up back then: Cool Points. In this game, every time somebody flinched from something landing nearby, the others would gleefully announce that he'd lost 1 or more Cool Points. To fit the present circumstances, I propose modifying the rules as follows: A. Starting a thread asking for an update on CM progress: -1 Cool Point B. Starting a thread asking for a CM release date: -5 Cool Points C. Starting a thread about scavenging weapons and ammo, or the absence of dead bodies: -10 Cool Points D. Announcing the creation of some cool mod for CM: +10 Cool Points E. Harassing Madmatt for not updating CMHQ lately: +1 Cool Point F. Posting a witty slam of Mr. Peng, Elvis, SS_Panzerleader, or von Shrad: +5 Cool Points (note: such posts can only be made by Mr. Peng, Elvis, SS_Panzerleader, and von Shrad) Maybe a few other rules... anybody got any ideas? ------------------ -Bullethead jtweller@delphi.com WW2 AFV Photos: people.delphi.com/jtweller/tanks/tanks.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Madmatt Posted February 7, 2000 Share Posted February 7, 2000 How many Cool Points do I get for working the word "POO" into a thread title? How many Cool Points do I get for recounting fond stories of when I was a bouncer and used to smash in faces (like S.S.'s) with no regards to right/wrong? How many Cool Points do I get for continuing to refer (in a deragatory manner) to Mr. Sychopant? How many Cool Points do I get for telling someone to BITE ME? How many Cool Points do I get for posting CMHQ updates? How many Cool Points do I get for taking a perfectly good flame thread aimed at myself and totally turning it around to make the original poster seem like a wanker? Just curious is all.... Madmatt Coolness like me...It outa be taxed... ------------------ If it's in Combat Mission, it's on Combat Mission HQ! combathq.thegamers.net [This message has been edited by Madmatt (edited 02-07-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I could try to throw a game against you, but I'm confident that you would snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. I think you're going to have to wait for Goanna's wife to provide your miracle... on the other hand, she'll probably turn you into her whipping boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Beman Posted February 8, 2000 Share Posted February 8, 2000 Madmatt, if you say POTD (pot-d....potty!) really fast, it sounds like +1 CoolPoint! DjB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JonS Posted February 8, 2000 Share Posted February 8, 2000 uuhh, MadMatt? I don't think the original post wasn't "aimed" at you specifically, rather at all of us. It was meant to be funny, not a flame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPeng Posted February 8, 2000 Share Posted February 8, 2000 What does self-deprication get me? 2.5 pts? MadMatt's autograph on my forehead? a fortune in glory? DOH! Goanna sent me a turn from CE. I am going balls to the wall on this one because I am soooo sick of the AI and Elvis loosing all the time. This is the most amazing movie I have seen. really wild Tank duel with a shermie and a stug. Looks like Goanna has thrown caution to the wind too. a real blood - letting for both of us. how the hell do we share this sort of thing? Not that any of the really cool people would be interested in a movie from a lightweight like me. Peng out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted February 8, 2000 Share Posted February 8, 2000 Whooww there Jons! I was trying to be funny too! I took no offense to anything here! I was actually refering to the infamous sychopant (and the Reagan/Dutch) thread that was started a few weeks ago by a poster with SS as his intials (NOT Panzerleader either )... Sorry if anyone here thought I was pissed as I actaully thought this thread was pretty funny...Hope I didn't ruin it..Please continue and I will start back at ZERO cool points to make amends! ------------------ If it's in Combat Mission, it's on Combat Mission HQ! combathq.thegamers.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
