PawBroon Posted June 8, 2001 Share Posted June 8, 2001 Now that's kinky! If we plague them with Peng they'll never even start the post setup PBEMoovering. For a more practical Tactishun view, the Plaguing of the Peng will most certainly get us the bottles anyway just to get rid of the Pod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This piece of gloating brought to you by the guy who has to share city with that Bush fellow next week. The only good thing about that is they´ve turned the whole town into a war zone and pumped-up Swedish nerds gets to play Secret Service and wear suits. I'll be out fishing if anything happens. So I will not have anything to do with it if anything happens, not that it will, probably not, and if it does it isn't me. OK? Btw, me and Mark IV want something to play boom-boom on. I would prefer it to be around 1-2 Coy size. Berli, you actually owe me a favor (albeit small) after your latest memory lapse, do you have anything cooking? And I mean that only metaphorically and with regard to scenarios. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark IV Posted June 8, 2001 Share Posted June 8, 2001 Lorak! A. Where the hell are you? 7. Note carefully: Battle of the Suits update! Mark IV: 82 righteous points of moral cleansing, Marketing Victorious. jdmorse: 19 ill-gotten points dropped into the tin cup of fate, Dead. It would have been even worse, except that: xi. An evil sky-hugging Jabo strafed my beloved AC to death, though he expended enough ammunition to sink the friggin' Bismark first. I was afraid he was going to land on-board and rush me with his pistol if the last didn't work. That AC was one-half my total vehicles. 22.05.14: One of my platoons thought they were creeping through a wheatfield, but it turned out to be an amerikanische freeway instead, as the last of several thousand legalwagen rushing headlong to destruction ran right over them. Free clue: rush the flags, not the TRPs. E. Infantry, a brace of guns, and some mortars sent 21 vehicles to the recycling center, though we admired their dash, elan, and contemptuous disregard for the principles of war. The pile-up in one little wood looked like one of those 99-car crashes on a foggy autobahn. 8-2. Killing lawyers has gotten to be a regular habit with me, but this one was better-groomed and easier to clean than the last. Also, he was one of the better turner-arounders of game turns amongst you sorry burger-flipping adolescents. c. If I wanted to play in ladders with boardies, I would. I don't. The recent walk down memory lane (more of a dark alley, actually) has inspired me to revive The Lawyer's Cup challenge, however. Stay tuned for details.

Panzer Leader Posted June 8, 2001 Share Posted June 8, 2001 I second the nominations of either MrsPeng or Shimshimminy. ((Of course I FIRST the nomination for myself -- but I have a feeling that's not going anywhere.)) My reason for each follows. Firstly, about Peng: If this is the Mutha Beautiful then Peng is its antithesis. As every good must have an evil, as all beauty must have a blemish, as all sublime holiness must have its depth of despair, so Peng is ours. He is the blackhole in a thread of light. In the Mutha Beautiful he is the naked, scabrous whore in her bed of fluid stained satiny sheets. He is Der Kessel of all our vices, and through our purgery to him, we are cleansed. He is like that chick in Star Trek who heals the wounds from the crew. But she falls in love with Bones (the only one ever, IIRC) and after a particularly brutal flogging, Kirk demands she heals McCoy. Only too late do they realize that she actually TRANSFERRED the wounds to herself, and she dies, leaving Bones' only chance at a woman gone for good. Well Peng is like that woman, only he takes our wounds and vices and creates with them a monster, a beast of villainy. He is like the monster in the old movies who takes everything we can throw at it and actually GROWS from it. I therefore think he is invincible, and should represent us. Now then, if that is impossible, the next best case would be Shazam-Shazbot because he is pure and virginal. His posts are always polite and politic. He has a sweetness about him that reminds me of Roger Merris. He is the ultimate good guy, and we all despise him for it. In short, he is a Paladin among cavaliers. You know I wouldn't be surprised if Simiansmile had a great big white cowboy hat in his closet. His pistols have pearl handles, to match his sparkling teeth, his clothes are always crisp and clean, and his only flaw, as far as I can tell, is his whiny, puling voice. Gosh, everytime I think of Slimshady I just want to pinch his cheek, and tell him "It's okay, you're right, they just wouldn't LISTEN, that's all." Now, don't cry, just get a cookie and watch some cartoons. So, those are my choices, out of all the ones I named, I hope you pick me (hic)!

Barticus Posted June 8, 2001 Share Posted June 8, 2001 Ahhh yes, when we were young(er) and naive, did we not believe in justice and truth and a score of other better things? Alas, along came adulthood (for some of us) and we realized the truth of this dog-eat-dog (should I presume to tell Bauhaus?, perhaps not) world, and lo were we not baptised into the wider existence of Cynicism. Alas, Speedbump old boy, that such a simple, well meaning and socially acceptable task may be beyond poor Pansy to accomplish. As much as Cess Inc. may wish it.

Be a good sport, go sooth Midgetus!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> The monitor alone wouldn't have made any difference, because I already play at the maximum resolution where the game runs smoothly on my machine. However, today, to assuage my seething bitterness towards sundry factors making me wish that guns were not banned in this country, I condescended to blow some more money and get an ATI Radeon to replace my Nexus (which I bought for... err... the CM Beta Demo). So, assuming my theories on the relationship between computer speed and graphics speed pertaining to Combat Mission are correct, on Monday I may be playing at a resolution of at least 1600x1200 on my shiny new 19" monitor. Otherwise I'll just have to sell my soul to Berli and get whatever new toys Apple introduces at next month's Macworld Expo NY. Of course, this doesn't mean I'll be wanting to use new bitmaps, but it will hopefully mean I can see the whites of the enemies' eyes without having to relocate the camera. And I expect my men's accuracy to be improved as a result. BTS has modelled that, haven't they? That'll mean I get quadruple points – double for my increased accuracy, and double for knocking out Lawyer's fancy high-res tanks with my v1.0 low-res jobs.

Thermopylae Posted June 9, 2001 Share Posted June 9, 2001 Presenting the COLOSSAL BURGER home of the Juggernaut! Who among you unwashed masses could resist a towering 12 foot burger rolled out on wheels...Oh yes, the staff worship it in evangelical voices as it makes it stately procession throughout the restaraunt, crushing the puny little kids who bought mere "Clash of the Titans Happy Meals" (sound of those really loud banging african-esque drums, kinda like the SP music ..you know dan dan daaan daan daaan dan) It is accompanied by legions of fries, each one dressed in the style of a roman warrior....all the while the trumpets are blaring and fireworks are going off dnagerously near to the customers, and if they forgot to to tip, annihilating entire ranks of SUVs....Meanwhile an fresh altar is erected from the overturned booths and chairs, and a gigantic circle of flames is made to surround it through the expedient use of kerosene, and we sacrifice a live goat over he burger, drenching it with fresh blood and the "special sauce". In a finaly primalistic dance to the cow gods, we present the burger in all its splendor to the buying customer. As well as a keg of ale. Then they march down the red carpet receiveing praise from the paid praising types (who upon failinn their jobs are offered as human sacrifices at the great burger altar) where they can generally behave like kings That, my friends, is a business plan.
