Keke Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Hear ye, hear ye! Becket is down and he can't get up! Since Christmas is so near I decided to give him a break after only 18 turns, which left the only flag of the Large Town QB-map still disputed, but saved his sissy Jerries (note: nothing to do with Finnish sissis) from utmost humiliation. The score was 66-34. :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Good Morning, or Afternoon, or Evening, or Night (whichever applies) Fellow Maggots of Cheery Waffledom!! Originally posted by Mike: Horrible Dave - send me a setup you maggot - I haven't played any of the scenarios so you can pick one you haven't done yet, and it's going to be hours before I'm home from work & ready to rock!Perfect timing, Mike. I see you posted this last night while I was watching Monday Night Football, although you were at work on Tuesday morning. Now I am at work on Tuesday for the next eight hours, while you are at home Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning, waiting for a setup. As usual, we're off to a fast start. A moment of pure paternal bragging - Saturday morning my lovely, brilliant daughter Anne graduated (in only seven semesters) from Francis Marion University with her BA in Journalism. The same morning, my beautiful, brilliant daughter-in-law Sarah graduated from Western Kentucky University with her Masters in Speech Pathology. Congratulations to my two girls, of whom I am very, very proud! On a totally unrelated note, I read something in the <font size=1>penguin</font size=1> thread which I feel compelled to bring to your attention. Kitty posted a link back to the original thread, and there I found this bit of deathless prose. See if this makes any sense to you: Originally posted by Seanachai: <font size=2>Your job, if you think things through (and you never do, which is why, Meeks my rodent, you will still need me, even should you hammer me into the muck from which you arose, and everyone should chime in to agree that you're significantly more humourous for fewer characters used than that Seanachai fella') is to deal with the fact that eventually, some rejected dolt is going to show up in one of the 'dudes, I think all sorts of stupid things rule, and my opinion needs to be spread across the board because I think it's becoming infected' threads, and tell everyone: 'hey, did you hear that there are women over in the Cesspool, man?', and when the hydrocephalics write back to say they can't find the Cesspool thread, one of the brighter Red Dwarf stars will inform them, 'man, it's called like the Peng Challenge Thread, or somefink', and there's going to be an f'ing migration of completely useless and cortex-dead simians showing up here to post swill even worse and less interesting than what the lowest of our members are capable of, with tag-lines like 'yo, where are the chicas, man?</font size=2>Did you notice that this is one single sentence? :eek: It's concise writing like this which has weighed down the <font size=1>MBT</font size=1> like tons of ballast, until it has sunk beneath the sheer volume of meaningless verbiage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 My fifth BDLRM challenger was none other than mike_the_wino. He assaulted with one Guards 43 company, one recon platoon, two DP LMGs, two Maxims, one FO (76.2 mm), seven T-34 M43s, a KV-I M41, an SU-122, and an M3 Scout Car. M_t_w won a minor victory by dividing his armor, approaching the defenders from three directions. The only thing that saved me from a worse disaster was his armor spent too much time shooting infantry to make it to the large VL. On the lighter side (sort of), one of his T-34s managed to kill a HMG team which had already surrendered to him. He caused 72 casualties, enough for a 64-36 victory. :mad: Next: THumpre 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, the canister was all ready loaded, the lads needed to clear the tube for some HE to chuck across the way. Efficiency, doncha know? He caused 72 casualties, enough for a 64-36 victory.As previously mentioned by Dave, I linger too long. Not quite sure of what I was up against I played as I would if I were playing a REAL opponent. Since Dave sucks like a Hoover, all my caution was wasted. Now we get to see how he fares against my uber-truppen. Since he is a hooring, cheat monkey no sigs are at stake. Cruel, twisted irony. Get the odd day off and all my turns are out....alas nary a one has returned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave H Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 The sixth adversary for the BDLRM challenge was THumpre, who also came from a "Who's the Worst Commander?" thread. He assaulted my overmatched Germans with one Guards 43 company, one recon C platoon, one pioneer platoon, three DP LMGs, one Maxim, one flamethrower, one tank hunter team, one 50 mm mortar, one FO (76.2 mm), six T-34 M43s, one KV-IS, one SU-122, one M3 Scout Car, and a partridge in a pear tree! We fought to a draw, largely because it took him a while to get his troops into the fight. The only actual infantry fight was around the factory, and THumpre was reluctant to commit his armor to an all-out attack on my dug-in infantry (which had worked so well for Teddy and Mike). He caused 32 German casualties and took one prisoner, but I managed to hang on for a 55-45 draw. Next: 86smopuim 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you what, Braniac, instead of sending my turn to my office address, why not send it to my home address, where I ACTUALLY PLAY CM. That way, when I get home, I can continue to beat you like a red-headed step child riding a rented mule. How's that sound, Mikey-Poo? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paybacks a bitch :mad: :mad: :mad: When I Am An Old Lady Then I'll live with my children and bring them great joy. To repay all I've had from each girl and boy. I shall draw one the walls and scuff up the floor Run in and out without closing the door I'll hide frogs in the pantry, socks under my bed. Whenever they scold me, I'll hang my head I'll run and I'll romp, always fritter away The time to be spent doing chores every day! I'll pester my children when they are on the phone. As long as they're busy, I won't leave them alone. Hide candy in closets, rocks in a drawer, And never pick up my clothes from the floor Dash off to the movies and not wash a dish. I'll please for allowance whenever I wish. I'll stuff up the plumbing and deluge the floor. As soon as they've mopped it, I'll flood it some more. When they correct me, I'll lie down and cry, Kitching and screaming not a tear in my eye. I'll take all their pencils and flashlights, and then When they buy new ones, I'll take them again. I'll spill glasses of milk to complete every meal, Eat my banana and just drop the peel. Put toys one the table, spill jam on the floor, I'll break lots of dishes as though I were four. What fun I shall have, what joy it will be Live with my children...the way they lived with me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Originally posted by Keke: [QB] You clueless nong. Zhukov, the pod of puss, didn't plan operation Uranus, which has nothing to do with uranus btw ("by the way" for CMAKless2121). It was planned and coordinated by Vasilievsky.

Erickson, in Road to Stalingrad, reports that Zhukov designed the operation and that he and Vasilievsky jointed presented it to Stalin. He also credits Zhukov with overseeing the implementation and selecting which commander would take which role. However, it appears to be impossible to tell who actually came up with it; Kruschev later claimed to have been the one who designed it.

[/serious]Well, Erickson did know nothing about Operation Mars, which was Zhukov's brainchild. The fact that STAVKA operated in such a collegial way, made it easy to give the credits to a commander favored by Stalin. Kruschev on the other hand is just a lier.

Becket Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Anyone fancy playing the CMAK version of "Chance Encounter" from ker dessel? I'd like to play the US side, as it brings back fond memories of trying out the CMBO demo (in the weeks before the CMBB demo was available). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
