I won't pretend to have known SG(2), but any loss to the community, especially when the person is clearly as well liked and respected as Ivor was, is a tragic event. A sad time indeed.
Rest in Peace.
If I'm posting here then Counterglow must be down.
I remember reading his posts from the time I was an on-topic dweller... As a kid, I was rather baffled by the fact that a couple of people post from the same account.
My honest and deep condolences to his family for this loss. May you never know sorrow again.
I am so rarely at Apolyton these days, you just think it will always be the same, same people, same things, but you read this kind of thread and realize that the world is moving on.
Lots of friends and old sparring partners in this thread, but gamers all, I think ol SG 2 likes that.
I believe Saddam because his position is backed up by logic and reason...David Floyd i'm an ignorant greek...MarkG
I remember reading all those succession games...
Let's hope he found some good wine in his resting place.

wow , been away from the forums for nearly 12 months and really only returned to the civ2 area MP again. I thought i would check out another of my old favourites the succession games and discoverd this thread to my utter horror. Whilst obviously in ever knew the man as such , i felt i did know him through his clever and always witty posts. It was becauses of him and the other SGs that i found the succession games and fell in love with them in the first place. I pace my sincerest condolences to both of the SGs surviving this loss and to any toher family members of SG2. I know what it is like tio lose a family memeber having experienced the loss of my son. So i know that only time and the respect of friends can assist any in making this hard times pass.
Thinking of you and praying that you will remeber the good times and not this disheartening period

I didn't notice this, because it has been for too long that the Off-Topic has been consuming most of my already depleted energy.
I remember SG[2]'s posts from the time I was still browsing this forum and others, and when I still spent most of my time playing Civ. I distantly remember the interest and wisdom of SG[2]'s posts and the respect he got, and truely deserved.
I only wish I had enjoyed his presense more and known him better.
Mmm... as a Civ II player, I respect very much his knowledge and how smart SG[2] seemed to be. I'm sure all Civ II players will miss him now. My condolences to the family and all of his closest friends. May he rest in peace.

Wow. I haven't been here much lately, so this is news to me. What a shock for his friends and family, and a sad loss for all of us. I always enjoyed the Gits' posts (yours too, [1] !), and am truly saddened to read this.
...
SG(2), we'll all meet again some other place.
