    Gone Gold claims MOO3 Gold by 1/21/03

    From: http://www.gonegold.com/

    Road to Gold 16:55 HRS. EST


    Master of Orion III

    We've all been waiting on this one and it seems the wait is almost over. If everything goes according to plan, you should expect to see a "Gone Gold" announcement as early as Tuesday, 01/21/03. Thumbs up to Quicksilver for not pushing it out the door over the Holidays. Looks like EB's date of 02/25/03 is on target.

    Now, once this one is on shelves, could you PLEASE get to work on a sequel to Conquest of the New World! Thanks.

    Apparently it is a strain to some. A date with a number greater than 12, makes it easy to handle, it is the 2/5/xx that are open to misinterpretation. But a quick look at their location often resolves it.

    This looks promising. Gone Gold has a solid track record.
    "The number of political murders was a little under one million (800,000 - 900,000)." - chegitz guevara on the history of the USSR.
    "I think the real figures probably are about a million or less." - David Irving on the number of Holocaust victims.

    We have to admit,
    there is a possibility that the game goes gold on 21.01.2003 ()
    As part of your equipment, you are to have a trowel, and when you squat outside, you are to scrape a hole with it and then turn and cover your excrement.

    Gone Gold is usually very solid...but let's all not get our hopes up. I'm thinking the list will grow to include March and April as release months.

    the key phrase here is "as early as" which means the date posted is a best case scenario.

    If they'd researched Stasis Field technology sooner they could have had it done a year ago.

    There's a prize if you can guess. Look at the top left corner for a clue. I'll tell you if you're getting warm...

    Well, that's what prompted the question !!! I saw the Union Jack, so I'm assuming Commonwealth. However, you often see it quartered on Military forces (Especially Navy and Regiment flags).

    It is too small to see on my screen, but looks like a crest (principality ?).

    You're location of "Germany" does not seem to help.

    Give us a hint.

    Well, as a hint let me just say, "getting colder"

    This is an evil hint.

    Oh, this country is not fully independant...

    British Antarctic Territory ?

    That puts you in the Antarctic (near the Falklands ?), or Cambridge, UK. Judging by the Time Zone issues and the speed of your reply, I suggest the Cambridge Antarctic Survey (as opposed to the Discovery Centre in Dundee or the RRS Discovery)

    Well, well done. (like the double well?)

    I congratulate you.

    British Antartic Territory is indeed the right answer. I can't believe you worked this out in one afternoon, looked at the time zone and everything. Man, you must be as bored (and cold?) as I am.

    You win...

    Hold on...

    You didn't look at the forum "thing where you choose your flag" and find a territory with the initials B.A.T. did you.

    I may have to take my prize back, unless you can tell me what my flag is showing....
