Oh well: You are, in fact, wrong. The title is... Competent players achieve a draw. This no doubt is why Shaw is having some much trouble with it.<hr></blockquote> Bah! How did you playtest that little gem anyway? Let me guess, you were the Germans, the A.I. was Allied and FOW was OFF right? And since you managed to pull out a draw once in the four times you tried it you figured it was balanced right? Now granted CM Player isn't THAT much more of a challenge than the A.I., but with this piece of garbage even Peng could win. I'm convinced that you somehow rigged it so that I would choose that scenario and that side. True Evil has it's ways. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>And then Turkeyish chimes in AGAIN: Mr. Shaw, what part of "I ACCEPT THE CLOWN'S CHALLENGE." didn't you understand?<hr></blockquote> Hmmm, I wonder what part of my post HE didn't understand. Lars, Did I suggest that he didn't accept the challenge? NO! Thanks, Lars, I didn't think so. It was Slapdragon as I recall that made THAT statement. I suggested that the FORM of his acceptance was WAY below standard ... as indeed it was. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Would you like a middle school level reading comrehension book to accompany you when you read the posts of others?<hr></blockquote> You know MrSpkr, while I've no doubt that he has any NUMBER of middle school level books readily available due to the number of times he's attempted to pass on to High School, perhaps he should follow his own advice since he apparently can't tell who posted what. Oh ... as to your turn MrSpkr ... I looked at it but found myself unsatisfied with the outcome. Do it again and IF it meets with my approval THIS time I'll return it. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>I'm sure Haans would fetch you one, being the good lad that he is.

By the way, you may want to keep a sharp eye out for bears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, if the TAUNTING is the point, what is it you're supposed to taunt about? The progress of a game perhaps? Winning and losing perhaps? Sorry, but there's no escaping the pissing contest however much you, Jo Xia may try to redefine the discursive environment around here. The MBT is a ladder, period. A gorified one perhaps, but a ladder all the same. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go beat my chest now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMplayer Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 (stiff faced and with monotonous voice) I hereby retract my earlier statement and affirm that I in no way whatsoever consider the MBT to be a ladder. I say this of my own free *OW!* where was I? I say this of my own free will and *AHHH!*. It makes no difference who wins or loses it's all in how you *AY!* how you...taunt and all that.

Mr. Xia can be such a trial at times... Nice to see that you have passed the final test, and seen the truth." * HerrOberst tosses CMplayer a towel * Herr Oberst: "We'll just have to get you cleaned up for your inaguration into the Inner Sanctum." CMplayer: "Is that anything like an Inner Croda?" Herr Oberst: "Oh, heavens no. You hadn't heard of it before?" * CMplayer shakes his head * Herr Oberst: "No, of course you hadn't. Silly me. Word of it's existence is only spoken of in the midst of members. All the Old Ones are members." * Herr Oberst spots a puzzled look on CMplayers face * Herr Oberst: "Yes, that means you are already in. The ceremony is a formality, but a necessary one. Please follow me." * HerrOberst leads CMplayer down a dark hallway * HerrOberst: "As I was saying, we are all really closet-grogs, and only a few have dared to mention even the slightest groggy statement, but there have been a few slip-ups." * Herr Oberst stops at a doorway * Herr Oberst: "Please go inside and get cleaned up for later this afternoon." * As CMplayer heads inside, Herr Oberst closes and locks a large iron door behind him. * Herr Oberst: "There's a good lad. The showers are straight ahead, and don't pay any attention to the scratch marks on the ceiling. I know it's a bit chilly on all that concrete, but we have a nice warm, toasty room for you after your shower is done..." * Herr Oberst turns to walk back down the hallway * Herr Oberst: * muttering * "Ladder my ass!" Hearing a rustle in the darkness of the corridor, Herr Oberst glances quickly to one side... Herr Oberst: "Oh for Pete's sake, SIT DOWN BAUHAUS!"

Jeff<hr></blockquote>jshandorf ... may I call you Idiot ... the only thing that's underwhelming around here is your INABILITY to put a taunt together. You preen and boast of your ability at CM AS THOUGH IT MATTERS but neglect the most important aspect of it all ... THE TAUNTING! How WELL I recall our PBEM game. I was so bored that I was thrilled to lose just to get out of it. Your turns came with ... NOTHING ... not a word but just the turn attached. At least young CMplayer has a BIT of wit about him (obviously it's deserted him NOW but he did send entertaining emails). And you call yourself a taunter ... go discuss Bertinelli hardness with some Grog (mind you Valerie had that effect on me at one time but lately she's just not quite there).

Turkish Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 Hmmm, winning isn't everything, but if I didn't care about winning or losing, I'd be just like the rest of you, and that's just too nauseating to thing about right now. Still waiting for Haans to send me the file, I guess he's working out with Fraans and is too busy for a good old fashioned drubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_Wildman Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 On a completely non-generic CMPlayer note. Has anyone heard or been able to check on our scribes whereabouts? Or better yet, thrown a phonecall towards his spousal unit and Loraklings. Surely on you you fey, east coast, Philly types are close enough to hillbilly country to make sure their ok.
