Bastables Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Benny Manieri: Not really...but then again, I don't really PBEM that much anymore.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> May have had something to do with that infamous beta Pbem game vs Fionn (and others before) where you played with no FOW and he played with full FOW, without telling any one you had no FOW. And Major Toms correct in both his posts, even 'full' FOW is not 'foggy' enough. Major Tom, I do not feel that telling little benny off for his moronic name calling will do any good, let him carry on as is his nature and he'll be banned soon enough. ------------------ Absolutely Shatter, you have been completely misunderstood. When Andreas, Chuppy and Peter posted pictures of themselves at the IWM I took the earliest opportunity to complement Chuppy on how hot he looked in that T-shirt. Of course the next time an appropriate thread about the front bogey wheel on the Matilda II came up I skillfully insinuated a subtle remark about what a spunk PeterNZ was and a redhead too! But alas, shatter, everyone thought I was a dickhead as well. ------------------ Muddying the waters as usual. by Simon Fox Mr T says "I pity the foo!"

Major Tom Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 In a very large way I am disappointed in the CM community right now. Letting Manieri get away with this blatant bigotry is pretty pathetic. John Hough was just about the only one who bothered to say something about Manieri's ignorant remark, yet he was quickly shot down. I consider Manieri's statement to be as flagrantly bigitrous as if he would replace the word 'queer' with 'n*gger', 'k*ke', 'sp*ck' or other derogatory namecalling. Some of us were exposed to Manieri's 'humour', if you can actually call it as such, when he posted his comedy webboard (back in the early days), which was mostly racist jokes (targetting Poles). IMHO, he is no more than a ignorant, intolerant, racist, homophobic bigot, and if anyone is to be chastised, it should be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Tom Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 No, in reality you WOULDN'T see all 8, 10, or 12 of those troops moving in advance and you wouldn't be able to determine which ones were hit or not. CM abstracts a lot of stuff, what we don't see when a squad moves forward is that they usually do so in a skirmish formation, with troops utilizing as much cover as possible, firing at intervals so as to confuse the enemy to their exact numbers. So, it would be impossible until within a dreadfully close distance to determine the status of your enemy. You aren't countering realism and unrealism, what you were trying to do is to try and legitimise your status on FOW. Most likely you just hate to lose. Use FOW or don't use it, it doesn't matter, (unless you don't tell your opponent ). Just don't try and justify it by faking a shortcoming in CM. It's not cochere.

Moriarty Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 Major Tom is indeed correct on all points, as is John Hough. Many of the newer people are not familiar with the rantings of the petulant teenager known as Manieri. Benny has a great deal of growing up to do and it is plain he hasn't accomplished that yet. Full FoW is the only way to play as is full disclosure should a player want to use something different. Just my 2 cents. ------------------ "Moriarty, you suck." -- Dunno, but somebody must've said it somewhere along the line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MantaRay Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 Oh no, the Capt is back with his usual idiotic comments again. Only lamers use partial or no FOW to play a PBEM with. Does that resemble you ManFairy? And you can call me whatever name you want in return, just if you join the service, remember it is "don't ask, don't tell," buddy.

Simon Fox Posted January 7, 2001 Share Posted January 7, 2001 That Manieri really is a queer fellow: point out his glaring inadequacies and poof he gaily resorts to previous form.
