Chad Harrison Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 We all remember how CMBO came. And we all had a heart attack when we thought that the CD wasnt in there and all they sent was the manual! So, this time around do we get a Box of some sort? Do we get a CD case, or just a paper sleeve again? Just curious. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soddball Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 You aren't getting anything. No game, no manual, nothing. BFC have used your money to set up the "Chad Harrison Hard Cheese Foundation", and they will be turning up at your house on a weekly basis making sarcastic remarks about how everyone in the world is allowed a copy except you. So. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_argie Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 I hope not. If it comes in a box I will be in a pain of custom taxes and delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 What is this fascination with boxes and CD cases for the game? Who cares? The CD stays in the CD tray on the computer for at least 6 months anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Leader Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Great news Soddball. And now let me tell you a story. Yes, when I was younger I laid waste to many, many sets of panties... Now, if you must corrupt my god-given name (in the finest Cess tradition) firstly, I should say that as a kanigget of the first order, me name must be emboldened, much like me privvies as I laid waste to... Nextly, I prefer the title "Pantless Leader" as it always brings to mind a Napoleon-like Figure in the finest jacket and hat standing before an epic battle, without pants. Thanx! W/B/S!

It seems that I have tapped into the power of the Cess here, and found one of its members bestowing such a great honor on me! Perhaps, Soddball, we could forget these idle words and prove who deserves to be president of my new club when CMBB finally arives, CD case or not?

Commissar Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Unless you use the box as living room art to impress your friends, there really is little point in it. The box is mainly to grab the customers attention as it sits on the store shelf. Since people who order CMBB outside of Europe already know about it, the box is an unnecessary waste of money (those boxes can be very expensive from what I heard) and postal cost. A CD case would be nice, but my CMBO has been in one of my CD trays for well over two years now. It's only coming out when CMBB gets here. Also, finding empty cd cases should be easy to find.

WWBIts just nice to have one to store CMBB when CM3 comes out in a few years. Till then, I will have no use for it other than to protect my prize from the USPS. That is my concern, not for looks or whatever. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poobear Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Yes, you'll get a box! A soap box so that all you whiners can jump up on it and complain about what's not in CMBB and what should have been in it and on, and on, and blah-blah-blah... why didn't my Grandfathers ditch-digging work detail unit make the unit roster list! :mad: ...

If you read above, I wasnt complaining, just asking. This reminds me of when I was back in high school and my football coach told me there was no such thing as a stupid question. So I asked a question and he yelled at me for asking such a stupid question! I am in no way complaining, I was just asking for pete's sake!! Today must be sarcasim day or somefink.

Spook Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 I dunno. Steve Grammont's outlook seems instead to latch onto military vehicles instead of frilly sports cars. Maybe he's angling to get a T-34 or JS-2 delivered from Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Chad, If you are seriously concerned about storage of your CD, go to any mid-sized record store and there is an excellent chance that they will sell you as many empty jewel boxes as you like.

Panzer Leader Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Record store?? What the... Michael, what lengths you go to (mid-sized, tee hee) to find something that not only is sold EVERYWHERE (except maybe small record stores ) but that most people are constantly throwing away for various reasons.

Pvt. Ryan Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 If you really want a nice package for your CM disc, take one of the AOL DVD-type cases and use it for CM. Or just use a regular jewel case. I think it was Tom that made the insert for the jewel case and it looked really nice. Maybe he will make one for CMBB. Then again maybe he won't since he is in Germany and will get a box and stuff this time. But maybe he will be nice and make one for the rest of us. But maybe he won't. Or maybe he will. But probably not. Well, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
