Moriarty Posted January 1, 2001 Share Posted January 1, 2001 Might as well start off the new year in right-o fashion. Sir Lorak the Loathed, my good man, would be kind enough to chalk up your topplement to TC Schutz & Co. as a win for me and a loss for you. It was indeed a noble fight and merely a tac vic ... 60 something to 40 something. Sir Lorak the Loathed was indeed correct when he said the side with the last tank would be victorious. Alas, it came to pass that TC Schutz's policy of one-shot-one-kill got the better of the opposing M4s. ------------------ "Moriarty, you suck." -- Dunno, but somebody must've said it somewhere along the line [This message has been edited by Moriarty (edited 01-01-2001).] [This message has been edited by Moriarty (edited 01-01-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace Posted January 1, 2001 Share Posted January 1, 2001 What's so great about it, Huh? Here I am, 2 January 2001, stuck in front of a computer at work with the whole working day ahead of me, when I could be sitting in front of a computer at home playing CMBO or visiting my favorite porn sites (those involving sheep in varios states of undress)!

Speedy Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 Well hello fellow pooldwellers. After 3 days in Robe of slouching in the pub, lolling on the beach, dodging crazed gunmen, and drinking quite a bit of beer during all three activities I have finally sobered up and made it home. Despite looking like a cooked lobster turns will be sent out to those I owe after I read the last 3 cesspool pages. Cheers Speedy ------------------ Work is the curse of the drinking class.

Lorak Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 Tomb update: Moriarty-win Lorak-loss Babra-win Hiram-loss OGSF-win Nijis-loss jdmorse-draw rune-draw Ahh, yes what a wonderful new years day. Hung over and at work. Couldn't ask for anything more. Moriarty did in fact hit me upside the head with his jackboots for a tac victory. He resorted to the gamey tactic of owning the buildings with flags on them. Please ! how damn gamey can you get? OGSF... ahh tis nice to actualy turn the tables for a while and make his men run around bleeding. I might have a chance in this one... unless he decides to use that gamey flag holding tactic too. Berli... I have no chance in hell. Of couse being in hell, berli has home field advantage. Berli has shonn himself to be a gamey cheat also.. Using larger artillery? That is almost as Gamey as capturing flags. Germanboy... Still drunk and singing sound of music show tunes. All and All things are pretty much going as I thought they would. My students are coming along nicely, learning how to cheat,be gamey, and win at all cost.. I'm a bit proud of them. Now if you will excuse me, someone at work is in need of my greatness. back later.

Mace Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 I agree, Stukes! Bored...bored...bored!!! I've got a lot on my plate but I can't be bothered (which is really not that unusual). Perhaps we should both install CM on the PCs at work and shuttle a PBEM back and forward. I for one want to able to yell out "Burn in hell you King Tiger/Pershing/whatever evil spawn" at the top of my voice during my work hours, or observe my peers dive under their desks when the sounds of total combat emminate from my speakers (which are cranked up to maximum volume for effect) when I process another PBEM turn. And if we get caught we can always use the standard excuse that we were testing the stability of our operation systems for the good of our respective organisations.

David Aitken Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 Not enough space in the Expedition to take the kids to school? Then you need an M3A1 halftrack! All the space of our regular M3 model, but now with a .50 cal machinegun ring mount and plenty of ammunition stowage! Steve: No! Chamberlin & Ellis clearly states that the A1 variant is a command/control or utility vehicle! You can't get all your kids in there unless you remove the stowage bins, and what happens if you crash? They'll go flying through the windscreen, that's what! Ahem... That's right, the M3A1 offers all the features of our acclaimed M3, and comes in attractive army-issue olive green! The M3A1 is the safest vehicle in its class – Steve: Now just wait a minute! The army only used halftracks for two years, before they realised that they were too thin-skinned to be useful in combat! And what with Babra sitting on the stowage bins, they're a death trap!! As we were saying... The all new M3A1 halftrack! Nothing even comes close, except the M3A2 – but they haven't made any of those! Babra: Rubbish! Plenty of M3s were retrofitted in the field! Tris: My soldiers don't have memories! Steve: Arrrgghh!! Okay, okay! I've had a word with Charles, and he's pretty confident that infantry can be retrofitted with a .50 cal ring mount, provided we remove the stowage bins, and M5A1s will have memories and stay out of heavily damaged buildings!

Croda Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 Once upon a time you dressed so fine, through Hiram a dime in your prime, didn't you? You can always tell when the civilized continents are sleeping, because the damnable Ozzies come out and jitter on about the most inane things. Luckily, the sun is up on the East Coast of the U.S. and inteligent, cultured people such as myself are here to berate you all for your moronic tendencies. Let me first declare that a new word must be created to aptly describe the degree of topplement I have just bestowed upon dalem. 89 - 11 was the final tally, and it would have been far greater had he not opted for the coward's Alt-U. I had one platoon of PanzerGrenadiers who inflicted 39 (confirmed) casualties, captured 8, and suffered only 6 casualties themselves...and this was on the attack, mind you! Yes, dalem was completely and utterly Crodified. And "Crodified" (always capitalized, thank you) shall be the new word to describe topplements so stupendous that calling them merely topplements is to call Shandorfffffff merely a stoopid, moronic git. As to Shandorfffff, he popped my Jackson from long range, my advance still continues forward. He's afraid to show any of his armor because he's of the impression that I have a fleet of Super Pershings waiting for him...let him contine to believe that. Morse and I have made contact in our super-conflict. He is running away. Marlow and I prepare an all-new conflict, and his dastardly ideas sound quite intriguing. Hiram leads a ragtag, ill-advised advance against my prepared positions. Hiram-kebobs will be for sale in the cafeteria by the end of the week. Chupamonkey's lack of an ISP has made sending turns difficult, but if I remember correctly, the last turn showed us shooting at each other. NZer better come back because I'm kicking the sheep-dip out of him. Berli: See NZer, but reverse the roles. Mensch got deported, I doubt we'll see him again. Does MarkWahlberg still play this game? To those of you I'm not playing, Lucky you! I'd be kicking your ass just like Berli is kicking mine! I am out to challenge Elvis' assessment that I am nothing but cannon fodder. Times have changed. Lorak! Make sure you mark my topplement of dalem. This gives me 3 wins, and the tally shall grow!

You could sell that idea to the IT industry for billions. Think of all the geeks who have been out of work since the Y2K meltdown failed to materialise. Next up... Bill Gates sneezed while coding DOS, and accidentally programmed it to self-destruct on... oh, say New Year's Day next year? And this problem will have leaked into your ROM chip, so you can't simply upgrade to Win2K+2 (although you'll have to do that anyway), you first have to hire a geek to eradicate the time-bomb, a process which will take, say, a week. There, that should give the industry a boom year, and then we can do the same thing all over again next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlow Posted January 2, 2001 Share Posted January 2, 2001 Happy New Year to all you worthless wastes of protoplasm. May all of your opponents have tungstun, and tanks that use it. Lorak, A report from the front: The legaltruppen of Herr Morse will write legal briefs no more. The fine employees of Marlow's Salvage and Wrecking Service, all recent graduates of the charm school in Joliet (bonus points for anyone that can place the reference (no, its not the Blues Brothers). Residents of Chicago not eligible), have removed the illegally parked wrecks of three mark IVs. Appropriate towing and storage fees will be assessed. Any tanks not claimed by the end of the week will be sold off at special auction. Marlow - win (Allied major victory, 70ish to 30ish) JDmorse (or the more streamlined and stylish jd) - lose It was a battle of epic proportions: I laughed, I cried, I kicked his little Axis butt. Two big thumbs up. One word for the defense, however, Tortboy did actually make a game of it after the untimely and negligent loss of his armor, and if he had just a few more men, the outcome would likely have been a draw. I will also note that I have accomplished what my esteemed sponsor, the Author of Pain, the Betagod Extraordinare, rune, could not accomplish: the topplement of Sir lowercase jd. Reports on other battles: Attacks against Shandorf and Nijis continue almost unopposed. dalem has almost unthinkably managed to make a game of our current battle by cheating, and knocking out a M26 with a (much maligned) mark IV. I hates dalems. While this will make no difference in the final outcome, it does make things a little more interesting for now. Eagleboy has finally begun his attack in earnest, and is making some progress, albeit at a high price. Speedy and I are just underway, he minus one tank. Things are just beginning to get interesting with Elvis is everywhere. After 10 turns of "Your doom is imminent," I think we are finally getting down to business. Capt. Croda (ret.) and I are finalizing our contract on a battle to end all battles. ------------------ This message brought to you by Marlow's Salvage and Wrecking Service, Proud Sponsor of The Cesspool aka The 'Meeks currently exists as Polar Bear excrement' Memorial Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
