Becket Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Boo, I loathe you. DaveH, that was an inspired bit of fiefing. I demand satisfaction on the field of battle. CMAK or CMBB, your choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to all of you maggots and <font size=1>penguins</font size=1> and whatever other riff-raff who piled on and wiped out my army, making me a knight in the process. I still plan to be chaotic, so don't be surprised. Do you think any of the other alliances will let me join? Oh, and CMAK will be just fine with me. Send me a setup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Axe_ Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Well, thanks for the kind words all, but Paula turned down the job. It was a great facility (http://www.victoriavillage.ca/) but they are under a provincially-mandated budget and could only offer $7,000 less than what she is making now. With a new house, it was a bigger hit in the wallet than we could take right now. As usual, she saw the positive (she was offered the job, after all). As for me, I just saw more commuting for her. She works very hard so the two of us can enjoy what we have and I am so proud of her every day. To top it off, I had to shovel 30 centimetres of snow from not only my driveway but my parents' since they are in Mexico right now. :mad: :mad: The forecast for tonight? —36C with the windchill. Turns and my long-promised, never-delivered update tonight. I feel like Pete Rose. :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, really, "reporter/photographer"? Maybe someone should wake up and accept the reality that they aren't Jimmy Olsen and Superman won't be their bestest friend in the world. To top it off, I had to shovel 30 centimetres of snow from not only my driveway but my parents' since they are in Mexico right now. :mad: :mad: The forecast for tonight? —36C with the windchill.30 centimeters...that's like what...? A cubit and a half? -36C? Arrgh, the wolves will be out tonight, comin' inta the village ta eat yer young! Pile extra dung on yer fire, man! Turns and my long-promised, never-delivered update tonight. I feel like Pete Rose. :mad: Soft and mushy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted January 8, 2004 Author Share Posted January 8, 2004 Axe, if you want to be like Pete Rose it's okay with me. Just please tell me you don't wear dress shirts with a little number monogrammed onto the collar. That is so precious it makes me want to be sick. :eek: :eek: Have you noticed the maggots have been absent - no doubt playing that infernal virus Fiefdom. :eek: :eek: :eek: Becket, send me a setup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What with most of them having attentions spans not unlike hummingbirds on methamphetamines, they'll probably forget all about it soon enough. Pity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenfedoroff Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Excuse the interruption. Whatever happened to MasterGoodale, anyway? His CM Forum career was like a bright star, flying across the heavens. Now, his only legacy is this thread and the peculiar form of aggressive communication found here. Er.. Or is the answer for this found over in that section on how to do a screen shot? Sincerely, Lurker in Limbo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sincerely, Lurker in Limbo Dear Lurker, He who goes by the name MasterGoodale perished in an unfortunate accident in his New Hampshire home while trying to rid it once and for all of mold, ants and mice. His solution was copious amounts of TNT. No remains were ever found. Actually, he posted less and less after he got Call of Duty. His last post said he may return someday. Keep your fingers crossed it never comes to that. But you know what they say about bad pennies.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted January 9, 2004 Author Share Posted January 9, 2004 Turns out to El Skunkito, Teddy Windsor, Axe, Soddball, and Snarker. I'm waiting for turns from mike_the_wino and Lurkur. Where are you maggots hiding? Hasn't anyone told you that Christmas is over for another year? Becket, I like Fiefdom, but I don't think the system should be so open-ended. It seems to me that once a fief reaches a certain population there need to be negative consequences from increasing population pressure. As it stands now a few experienced early-joiner players can form an alliance and keep everyone else from ever having any chance to catch them in the rankings. Actually, I was thinking about what a wonderful model of gang wars that Fiefdom provides. :eek: :eek: :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, you hit the nail on the head with Fiefdom's problems. Though, I may proudly say, the Wafflers (and two or three penguins) came in like gangbusters and made a good showing. But, we're now being beaten down by the uber-alliance, amid much self-congratulation and proclamations of how honorable they are, and dishonorable their opponents are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more Fiefdom?!?!? I've spent the last two hours with tank and 86 helping Dixy reduce Angus' population to near zero. :mad: :mad: :mad: Fiefdom :confused: Kitty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything was caked in ice as thick as your skull. I'll get you your turn wqhen I damn wel feel like it. :mad: :mad: :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
