Snarker Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Because the rest of the world isn't privvy to British Secret Time. Now, just make up a number, that'll keep him confused for 10 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Axe_ Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 So I can expect the next turn on Grimsbyday, Jellyary, 9875 at 87:91, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Axe_ Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 BTW Edward -- shouldn't you be hard at work right now? Chop chop. Let's look busy lad. What did you have for lunch? I just finished an invigorating bowl of Cheerios for breakfast. [ August 28, 2003, 07:51 AM: Message edited by: Axe2121 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave H Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 So Axe, is everything in a state of readiness for your big day coming up very, very soon? You will be posting pictures of the wedding and reception, right? All of us wish we could be there, but I think I read that the border had been closed once the Mounties finally threw out mike_the_wino. Oh, and Abbott, this map Axe and I are playing on is really tricky. The trees and the terrain make it feel like a labrynth. Excellent work. Now if you just had the Germans armed with nothing but light tanks, my Russians would be in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you have for lunch? I just finished an invigorating bowl of Cheerios for breakfast. I'm just about to disappear for lunch (liquid, as usual), with one of the fragrant young ladies in the office. A couple of hours of long, meaningful glances, fluttering eyelashes (mine, of course) and idle banter. Bottoms up! Teddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of us wish we could be there, but I think I read that the border had been closed once the Mounties finally threw out mike_the_wino. We are ready, ummmm willing and able. I got my Stuart of Bute family ties in from Scotland for me and my dad, who is the best man, to wear and the piper has confirmed. Paula has had everything ready for the last few weeks (she's obssesive about planning). I just have to show up. And stay sober. And not run away screaming into the vinyard next door to the inn. We have three nights booked in Quebec City (oh hush Mike) and after that we'll take a break before moving in Oct. 15. As I was telling Dave in an e-mail, the frame is up, the roof should be on by the weekend and the brickwork done by next week. I brought the crew a whack of coffee yesterday from Tim Hortons (the Canadian equivalent of church) and my dad said, "You idiot! Beer would have probably got you an extra floor!" I'll try to post the wedding and house pictures but I need a host. Any ideas? Jas :mad: n P.S. The map is great Abbott. When Dave gets to the centre of the labrynth, he's going to find one really pissed minotaur. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am waiting for the conclusion to your PBEM to send the finished (a few small changes) version to the Depot. I am looking forward to any comments from you gentlemen.

MasterGoodale Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Listen up maggot pods! After a week of extremely furious turn sending MasterGoodale, Jewel Crowned GrandMaster TNT Chucker is leaving for a few days. I shall sling my last batch of hot angry TNT right now and will be back Sunday afternoon to sling some more. I'll be good and angry when I get back after a few days in northern Maine with the relatives :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave H Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Originally posted by MasterGoodale: Listen up maggot pods! After a week of extremely furious turn sending...You're right, this was a banner week for the normally inert MasterGoodale (the maggot). I personally received one whole turn from him. :eek: There may even be a second turn awaiting me at home, no doubt sent last night while we were being pelted by thunderstorms and a couple of inches of rain. Anyone heard from Shosties4th lately? After his posts about his medical problems I'm pretty concerned about him. Becket, that map you used setting up the game between MasterGoodale and me is devilish. The setup areas are really problematic for the defender, and probably the attacker as well. I'll see how this goes with the maggot, then I might want to use this setup to resurrect my tourney against all comers. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGoodale Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Yes, the map is a bit strange for setup. But I still plan to implement the most efficient mechanism of slathering in this battle. :mad: Quit yer crying ya panzy. A slathering is a slathering, no matter which map it takes place on. :mad: Prepare to extend your sig line an additional 90 days (45 if you surrender like last time) :mad: Smope you're welcome for the aircraft. Bombers are great if you want to "Reach out and Slather someone". :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGoodale Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 And Dave, a setup takes lomger than a normal turn! :mad: But I will admit that I forgot I had that setup waiting from you for over a day :mad: Does anyone else have any complaints about MasterGoodale's turn sending rate??? :mad: I thought not. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becket Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 DaveH, glad I could help. Robotnik is a favorite map of mine. Not *the* favorite (that place is reserved for the Derzhinsky map in the Stalingrad Pack), but a close second. I go back and forth in my mind about which of you is in the worse position, so maybe that means it's balanced? I hope so. Any sign of wino? No turn from him for days.

mike_the_wino Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Pecker if you would only read my insightful prose you would see that I am around. As previously mentioned the months of August, September, and October are the busiest for me. As such, turns are sent when I can. On the upside it irks you when I don't send you turns. I like that, really I do. Once again Axe2121, your Papa was right. Both by calling you an idiot and with the beer advice. When our house was being built we paid the framers for $20 and a case of beer for an arch in the master bathroom and one in a hallway, as well as reinforcing the wall in the living room for the wall mounted TV deal. We had a bunch of eletrical work done as well but that cost a bit more. It was well worth it as the home builder generally marks things up 3 times what the sub-contractors charge. Slimy, thieving hoors. BTW, if you are thinking aboot surround sound systems buy the best stereo compatible wire you can afford, run it, and put in electrical boxes before they sheetrock. Much easier than fishing lines through the walls later. [ August 28, 2003, 01:22 PM: Message edited by: mike_the_wino ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy You sir, are a scholar, a gentleman and a maggot. Thanks for the offer. Maybe I can superimpose Paula's photo into one of our AAR ones and turn her into a Soviet shock troop. Her wedding dress will provide great camo in the snow. Thanks for the advice Mike. I was pondering over the surround setup. Jas :mad: n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Windsor Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Originally posted by Axe2121: You sir, are a scholar, a gentleman and a maggot.Thank you, kind sir. I'll look forward to seeing pictures of Paula pulling grenade pins with her teeth, pulling a pistol from her garter (which will be blue, old and borrowed, of course) and storming my Tiger The last file I have for our game is 093, which I sent on Monday. The last mail I received from you arrived on August 16 Any ideas? Maybe it's worth trying my hotmail account instead (in the profile)? The world of cyberspace seems rather screwy at the moment - shades of T3 (which I saw last night and was nowhere near as terrible as I expected). On a brighter note, my inbox is full of turns from all the other maggots, so my impassioned plea must have worked. Cheers chaps, Teddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
