I've got to hope your kidding and I'm just too tired to recognize sarcasm, Master Bates.

And besides, Marlow is an expert on syphallitic crack whores, so his opinion is taken for gospel around here in those matters.

IF YOU ARE SANE, STABLE, EASILY OFFENDED, OR Rob/1 STAY THE HELL OUT.

Here you go. Happy now? Personally, I think that several of the more tedious threads on the board are far more damaging to the psyche than our little playhouse.

New thread and it's turning into a pile of crap.

Folks, if you're not going to post paragraphs of vitriol about GAMES you're PLAYING then, seriously, sodd off!

Growing 120 posts in 24 hours is just a waste of everyone's time. 9/10ths of the post are just festive bouts of mutual masturbation, "oo you suck" "oo no you do!". This is a pool not a cookie to be made soggy with your penile excretions!

Please, stop posting your drivel! I feel like i'm wadding through millions of babies given extra-drool formulation and it's getting my boots messy.

This is a GAME CHALLENGE THREAD! Either play games or sodd the hell off!

If the thread keeps going like this many people will just stop reading it and we'll have lost the most interesting bit of net space yet discovered by man.

I don't care what country you come from

I don't care about sheep or not sheep

I don't care about the us elections

I don't care about you job, your religion, what colour dildo you shoved up your butt this morning, I CARE ABOUT KICKING FOLKS AT CM!

Now Get back in LINE

AS for games.

I'm loosing none. Which is a good thing. And Andreas, technically speaking I'm NOT loosing Kammersheidt, look at the score, nyaa.

I have to hate you down to the hell of being skinned alive and cooked on the George Foreman grill, you Aussie, Pommie, Yank-Wanking, Wank-Yanking, dumber than fly ****e, knuckle-shuffiling bag of douche drippings. You're wonderful idea of bringing the MuthaBeautifulThread down under has turned it into a joke. All of Loserville has now found it's way in here. Before we know it, Pillar will wash up wanting to know if anyone wants to discuss better packaging for the K-Ration.

This is pathetic.

You caused this debacle.

You have instigated the topplement of the Peng Thread.

I have no choice but to punish you.

A setup will find its way to you sometime soon.

My suggestion to you: cancel your ISP account and go on a walkabout, never to return, else you will suffer.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Muhahahahahahaha!

You mongrels were getting too comfortable, recycling old taunts and comparing the size of your genatalia!

It is time for new sport.

This iteration of the cesspool is merely giving the opportunity for new participants to become involved (most of them lacking that certain annoyance factor, that is true, but I'm sure there'll be a future master of taunt in amongst them), so we current squires can at last be knighted and they step in as our go-fers.

But most of all, it was taken over just to piss you off!

Hiram,

You horse lovin' SOB I just sent you a setup last night! How about WE play TCP/IP tonight, then I won't have to draw you ass kickin' out over a couple weeks. Hmmm?

The setup is 1.05 but if you load the setup and then save it and then restart CM 1.1 and load the saved setup it will run in 1.1.

Whaddaya say Noodle boy?

Attention K Mart Shoppers, incl M. Bates, Rob/1 and the various Limeys/Pommies/Aussies/NZer's, anyone else etc. At the risk of ruining my reputation (such as it is) I am going to point out one thing seriously with the hope that it will make some sense.

PeterNZ and Croda have touched on it, remember this is more than a chit chat club of the thread. If you want to try and find a game with the regular denizens of this area of the forum. Fine. There is an accepted and well used procedure. Be obnoxiously vile and insulting and CHALLANGE some one to a game.

Ultimately this thread has always been about filling up our pbem calendar with games on a regular and ongoing basis with people we enjoy (not that we'd let our daughter marry one mind you.) I don't find your presence irritating, rather I wonder why you'd even bother to come in, kind of like watching a train wreck I suppose.....We really do not have much interest with you unless you want to play a game of CM. But to do so requires certain hoops etc. to be gone through. People drop by and think all we do is talk smarmy or insulting, for us regulars though there are plenty of games going on in the background. If you want a place to just be yourselves, start a tread of your own and see who you attract.

Well enough of this "reasonableness' I can hope although I hold little faith it'll matter. As for the rest of you, and you know who you are I despise and loathe you, I look forward to presenting my wife with a necklace made of your ears and thingies. Anyone else, Move along...nothing to see here.

(PS) Our sweet Hiram seems to either be off his meds, off his ex, has serious hormonal imbalances or has finally got in touch with his inner Croda

Bates, you're right - no one can keep you from dog paddling through this cesspool. But get real, you're like a nun (Sisters of the Holy Bunion) at PornDex. Go drop a nickel in a slot machine, you'll probably get further.

Master-Bates-A-Lot,

You see we have a nice little family here in the Cesspool, and with that family comes certain responsibilities and commitments which are implied but hardly spoke of such as:

1: Be funny and entertaining.

2: Be mean and cruel to your "siblings"

3: Kick the dog when you can.

4: Display a sense of megalomania and be a general ego-maniac.

5: Display flashes of brilliance and intelligence (i.e. legibility) in you posts.

6: And finally but not least, ACT LIKE YOU GOT A PAIR!

In general, I think everyone here in the Cesspool and outside in the RealWord would agree that you lack any capability to fulfill the afore mentioned bullets. To put it in layman's terms... You suck. You suck here. You suck there. You suck everywhere. You suck SOOOO bad that I have yet to see a post by you, that is in any form of the word intelligible, here in the Cesspool or out in the other threads. If you are not whinning about something you are posting juvenile jokes referring to male genitalia. Now...not that we don't do the same, now and again, but you see we do it in here, and well... frankly...we do it well. And since you suck so bad (so bad in fact you are vying for the crown of Royally Sucks) you are taking up space here in the Cesspool, literally and figuratively. You really should just pop off and shoot yourself in the head and do us, the rest of the board, and hell.. the rest of the world a favor and die.

Thanks for understanding. Now piss off.

Jeff

ohhhh before I go..... Hello Croda sweety

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Large God! Has the Thread been around long enough yet for the hopeless to get bored and stop shuffling in? Well, not quite, it seems, but they do seem to be trailing off.

Ah, YK2, I am honoured. But we must remember that I was 'at the helm' of the previous Peng Challenge Threads in the same way that a man being prodded off the edge of a cliff by an angry mob can be said to be 'leading' it. Now, obviously, this place will be all but unliveable for a while. Not so much because of the Australians (yes, most of them do bear their young live, but after that they get strangely cute with them) shuffling through. Any thread that has a high hit count on the words 'VB', 'sheep', and 'pommie' attracts their attention and in they come. But for the most part they are a nation that delights in giving each other and everyone else ****e, so they don't really pose a problem. No, for a while the problem will be the confused little tykes who do not realize this is the new home of the Peng Challenge Thread, and wander in trying to figure out what's going on. They will disappear the soonest, of course, as word gets around and the post count grows. And we will have a rush of visitations from unhappy, constipated individuals who disparage the Thread and everyone here because they disapprove, or don't get it, or they feel excluded and want everyone to know they never wanted to be included in the first place. Some feel the need to take some sort of moral high-ground and then rush down into the swamp to tell everyone there should not be swamps before rushing back to the hilltops, there to fall to their knees weeping at the things they have seen, and the fact that their clothing will now have to be burned. They turn their faces up to the heavens and decry the things they have read, and wonder that the Almighties(whatever you conceive them to be) and the Moderators allow such things to be.

Now, none of these people have ever made any attempt to offer an alternative. It is interesting to me that a great deal of time and energy goes into the Peng Challenge Thread, aka Cesspool. It is of very mixed quality and interest, it's true, but now in it's third incarnation and at @6,000 posts for the three, having survived crashes, schisms, whinging, and every form of disruption, it is an unusually active and healthy thread (in a very unhealthy way).

What have those who disapprove, and the moral reformers, offered as an alternative? For a while, I even tried to setup up a 'Nice and Courteous PBEM' thread (shudder). Not only was I not the right person for that job, but the abuse I took here was unbelievable. Berli alone was so cruel that I ended up weeping alone and distraught (he would only communicate with me through the 'Nice & Courteous Thread', and was always extremely friendly and polite. It finally broke me completely. It was like having Satan show up and insist on driving you to church every single day while talking about the weather and sports and gardening and things.)

Not once have we seen those who wish the death of the Peng Challenge Thread offer up anything to counter it. None of them would take the time and effort that people like myself have been willing to devote to the Cesspool. And it's unlikely that if they did, many would go by there. No, they spend their efforts on quick, 6-20 post shots on the general Board, some locked up, others dying away for lack of interest.

We do not. We carry on (however badly, sometimes). Despite the curses of the holy, the abuse of the grognards, the inanity of the lackwits, and the judgements of the self important, we carry on. New chums arrive, others leave, many return, and some cannot be levered out even despite pictures of Mormon Wives, Mr. T, and whatever that horror was Chupacabra inflicted on everyone a bit ago. Sometimes we complain, we snarl about the newcomers, we deride the old-timers, we get into actual pissing matches, rather than the typical 'Pool type. But the Thread goes on.

So, PeterNZer, no: the Peng Challenge Thread is not merely a place to seek PBEMs and provide brutal AARs. And no, Croda, it is not merely a place to taunt one's opponents, and pour out invecitve and abuse. All these things are, of course, central and important to the Peng Challenge Thread. But the Thread is more than just those things. The Thread is a Community. A vile, hateful community of individuals of varying gifts, attitudes, personnaes, and achievements. But a community nonethelss. And that is why it survives.

That, and the fact that I still grace it with my presence. Most of the rest of you couldn't manage enough character, erudition, and intelligence to maintain a colony of bacteria, let alone an actual community of thinking beings. But I have compassion on you. You are all poor, weak creatures, and I shall do my best to raise you up to the level of the poor creatures you seem to take such unnaturally carnal interests in. For the Hedgehog is with me, and the Hedgehog can never be buggered at all.

Did I see that the Greeks had finally arrived?

------------------

Tremble, tyrants and you perfidious opprobrium of all the parties,

Tremblez! your parricidal projects finally will receive their prices!

But these sanguinary despots, But these accomplices of Bouillé,

All these tigers which, without pity, Déchirent the centre of their mother!

We will enter the career When our elder is not there any more,

We will find there their dust And the trace of their virtues
