A few good men

[1889]

If you have clicked this post then you may already be the type of person I'm looking for.

Hello, I'm 1889 (not my real name) and I have become very concerned with the speed of games here lately and the spat of unexplained dissaperances of some of our most renown players.

I have decided to head up a secret government organization, sort of like K.N.I.G.H.T Industries to investigate this strange behavior.

Positions to be filled:

• talking car
• rich benefactor
• wrongly accused commando out to clear his name
• hot chick
• quirky but brilliant computer geek
• precocious youth with speech impediment

Our secret cover will be as a professional thread bumping service. Expensive, but always discrete.

BTW i'm perfect for the position of talking animal. I'm not a car, but I'm way cuter. Perhaps a ... scottish terrier, or a bloodhound. Something like that.

Assuming you'll be the talking car's passenger, I'd suggest recruiting from a German website to find hoardes of adoring supporters...

Just what I was thinking.

Go hard 1889

Some of us belong to a similar organisation U.N.C.L.E.

We, the men of U.N.C.L.E. are committed to getting:

Unlimited turns played by all
Needleing players that are slooooooooooooooooow
Completing the posts so that they include the appropriate information
Learn how players can be encouraged to play their turns
Email those that last had the save


So play hard, party harder

Ok, 1889 (not his real name) I, some bloke from down the hall, would like to join this oh so "hush hush slush fund of the Apolyton PBEM Forum". I do appreciate that spelling is not as importamt as finding the key to the liquor cabinet, yet I am willing to undertake the mission of getting the beer from the cellar. Although I must state quite clearly here and now, that I can not assure you in any way just where the beer will go once it leave the cellars of K.N.I.G.H.T Industries (not it's real name either).

In the hope you will accept my services I have undertaken the mission as proposed by Rommel, who I have been assured is the Minister who is in turn responsible for the overall explainations to their "Royal Supremenesses" for this oh so "hush hush slush fund of the Apolyton PBEM Forum" that is K.N.I.G.H.T Industries (not it's real name)

Hoping that as we are a secret organisation, you will then never contact me, mainly due to my typing this on an invisible keyboard that I have unattached from my computer, to keep this an entirely secure communication

Agent Paddy the Scott (not his real nationality) I accept you into this secret organization whos existance I can neither confirm nor deny.

Joining a PTW game is above and beyond the call of our unstated secret mission. Your bravery and dedication have been noted and I am pleased to inform you that you have been awarded a special citation for (deleted for security purposes). Ofcourse for security puposes the award can not actually be issued however.

ahh opps, hi boss... ummm, well ahhh hmmmm dilemma indeed

look it is like this

/me passes 1889 (not his real name) a large beer

thanks for this here citation that you are not actually able to give to me

umm, I did not actually join the game... you know the game that may, or just may not exist

if you could drop by the thread you will see a bit of my actions

/me hands over a report (see inbound email)

this may also help in understanding what I may have or may not have actually done in this possible situation

These forums get stranger and stranger.

Did the Civ2 forums start to get wacky like this when Civ3 was announced?
