109 Gustav Posted February 16, 2001 Share Posted February 16, 2001 Hello, I'm building a CM webpage, and one of the sections I'd like to include is a listing of classic threads that every CM player should read. Funny ones, strategy/tips/techniques threads, maybe some that show how much CM has progressed, or anything that you feel deserves to be read again. Post the links here or email them to me. It would be nice if you could include a brief description of what the topic's about. Is this a good idea? Any suggestions on how to improve it? Has it been done before? Thanks everyone, 109 Gustav. ------------------ Well my skiff's a twenty dollar boat, And I hope to God she stays afloat. But if somehow my skiff goes down, I'll freeze to death before I drown.

Guest aka PanzerLeader Posted February 17, 2001 Share Posted February 17, 2001 You HAVE to include a Cpt Manieri thread. Just do a search on him and choose the funniest one you can find, there are plenty! Including the one that popularized the word "sycophant", and cool points...Sorry, too godamn tired to do the search myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted February 17, 2001 Author Share Posted February 17, 2001 Woah, great post, Madmatt. I don't think I'm gonna be posting any more off topic threads outside the general discussion forum for awhile. Thanks everyone, keep up the great work. Does anyone know of any good posts that show how far CM has evolved from it's alpha or beta days? ------------------ Well my skiff's a twenty dollar boat, And I hope to God she stays afloat.
