Is it just me or has any of you worthless steamy coils of fecal matter been struck by the irony of the plight that is Axe2121

The Tale of Canadian Editting Nong

Scene opens in a Canadian suburb, with a flannel clad man jumping about his office giggling with glee. His wife enters the room

Paula: What are doing you odd, moose-humping prevert.

Jason: Oh dear, the most amazing thing has occured in my entire, most unremarkable journalistic career.

Paula: You got a job that actually pays you? I hope you didn't fall for that Canadian versus US dollars trick again.

Jason: No, this is sooo much better. I have been accepted as an editor for the new CMAK scenario briefings.....oh my, oh what a glorious day.

Paula: The what for the what?

Jason: COMBAT MISSION...the new game.

Paula: Oh that...isn't that the little tank game you play?

Jason: "The little tank game"? Dear, Combat Mission is only the most historic, balanced and well-designed game in my entire sorry existence.

Paula: Yes, dear, that's nice.

Jason: This is so great.

Paula: So what exactly do have to do.

Jason: Well, the wonderful people at Battlefront.com will send me scenario briefings and I will proof-read, correct and then send them back immediately if not sooner.

Paula: So, what you are saying is that on top of the hours you waste playing that game you are going to be spending MORE time proof reading for the next game.

Jason: Um, well....I suppose you COULD put it like that.

Paula: And you get paid for this?

Jason: Um, no, not exactly honey-bunny.

Paula: Do you get a free game or anything?

Jason: Um, not exactly.

Paula: Do you get the game before anyone else?

Jason: Um,.....no.

Paula: Do you get ANYTHING?

Jason: They are going to put MY NAME in the game manual.

Paula: *rolls eyes* Great, I can't wait to tell my parents, they will be so proud.

Fast forward three months

Paula: Jason, get back in the house. The postman doesn't come on Sundays and you are standing in four feet of snow.

Jason: But, he will be here in less than twelve hours.

Paula: Get inside now!!! And put on your good flannel shirt my folks are coming over later.

Jason: *Dejectedly trudging back into house, carefully wiped the moose poop off of his mukluks.* Yes dear.

I'm guessing when you set up, you placed some next to my units, got one on a second story floor above a IIC, one co-located, with an infantry unit, second floor of another building, and a third which is infantry sounds in the middle of a dirt road. Picked em up when I was plotting my first move.

Yes indeed - some of my chaps do seem to be rather close to some of yours - still...I'm sure we can sort it out with some good natured TNT chucking in a few seconds - if the grenades go down your hatch then I win, if they don't then you do........seems eminently reasonable as a contest!! :D </font>

The Canadian Editing Nong, Act 1 Scene 2

Vermont, 25th Floor, BFC Towers

Steve: MATT! Get in here NOW!

Madmatt: What is it boss?

Steve: How come we have a briefing that spells 'through' as 'threw'?

Madmatt: You're criticising someone else's spelling?

Steve: Christmas can be very unpleasant for the unemployed, Matthew.

Madmatt (hastily): I blame those two nongs that Rune got to do the proof-reading.

Steve: Why? Who did he get?

Madmatt: Axe1212 and Mr.Spkr.

Steve: You got a Texan and a Canadian to do the proof-reading? Couldn't you at least find someone who speaks English?

Madmatt: We could, but they wanted paying.

Steve: Right! I want a full scale investigation, and fit the 75L42 to the Weasel. In the meantime neither of them gets the game until this is sorted out.

Dear Mister Wino,

Thank you, thank you. You may select a region and date and I will create a scenario for your use. As an extra bonus, you may select a name of your choosing to be placed within said scenario in a unit that you pick.

Seanachai and Soddball,

Did you both receive the scenario I sent for your Battle Royale? Tradition states that you actually acknowledge getting the work someone has done for you. I hope it causes you much gnashing of teeth.

Seanachai and Soddball,

Yes, those two lads will be fine. Put Seanachai as an Aussie vehicle. Be it either a "Dingo" or an ATR carrier it matters not. The ATR has limited range, slow ROF and is an overall impotent vehicle, not unlike the Gnome hisself. While the Dingo is a smallish, ill-tempered, wild dog. Additionally, Seanachai hates things Aussie. Overall, either would be a good fit.

Soddy strikes me as more of an Italian vehicle type. Maybe one of the unwieldy 20mm auto-cannon trucks. Ugly, full of sound and fury but lacking any real useful purpose.

Set in a vineyard as both are hopeless sauce monkeys.

:mad: :mad: SCATMUNCHER! :mad: :mad:

I have sent your turn to you so that I can kick your saggy, gnome-shaped arse. Learn to fear the power of The Brood and the Cheery Waffle! You stink! GARHAGRAHGRHAHRAHARAHGRAhgARH!!!!

Let all know I do this for the honour of The Brood, and the crushing of the evil gnome from the Pegs Challenge will clear our way to universal domination! :mad:

I plan to keep detailed AAR records of this one, and I hope Seanpoochie will too, so that this clash of the Tits will be remembered in posteriors!

:mad: GRHARAHARHARAHRGARAGAARRRGHGH!!!! :mad:

I arrive home, open the mailbox and what do I see? The key to 1A, the parcel post container in our community mailbox!

Hardly able to contain my excitement I open the door and pull out the slender parcel....only to find it is filled with wedding photos from my father-in-law.

Just wait until I see him at Christmas. :mad:

Oh well, off to read for the night. Could be worse.*

*Note how stoic I am. NOTE HOW EFFING STOIC I AM!!! GRGA GRAG ARGG G ARG G RAG G GG GAGR G ARGGRGG AGR G RG RAG G AR GGGGGARG AGR !!!!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I don't normally even read Peng Posts - but Mike the Wino got me going! As I don't have a wife to impress tongue.gif !

I am not the Green Rascal - I thought he was one of you lot :eek:

Matrix did manage to send me a free copy of SPWAW as well as putting my name on it, but I got no money! I just sent them my campaign Normandy Gold -Which I did fun - I didn't even think they would put in the game just on the Raider Site for people to download. :rolleyes:

I don't know if Rune should play SPWAW, maybe he should ask Wild Bill Wilder ;) .

Lizzen up you pile of moldy, rat scrat, this ain't no stinking Cesspool. You want the nongs down that way.

*gestures at the floor*

Take the stairs down, follow the smell of sulfur, and when you get to the Gates of Hell (no, not Bill Gates, he resides further down), and hang a left. Look for mutated, unwashed, babbling, sauce monkeys flinging fesces at each.

Then you will be in the Penguin Pool.

Dumb F*er. :mad: :mad: :mad:
