      Stefu, do you mind if I add to your addendum?

      "43. Colon is Belgian. (Californian, geez.) He's also an economist who doesn't like Alan Greenspan very much."

      I'm an amateur economist at most, and I have no do particularily dislike of Greenpsan himself, rather his policies.

      "37. AFAIK Sten Sture is Swedish."

      Sten is of Swedish descend, true, but he's American and lives in San Francisco.

        Impressive work as always DarkCloud. Great list!

        As well as the corrections from Stefu, what you know is amazing.


        Finally, just a quick check I made is that number 90 is missing and that numbers 69 to 61 are printed twice. Make those couple changes and of course all corrections and then this list is absolutely freaking amazing.

          Chris, I can understand perfectly you correct DC, but that doesn’t mean have to start *****ing like that. Judging from your reaction you seem to think he spend hours on making a list of a 100 people for no other reason than insulting you.

          Please have some understanding, would you?

            Nice work Nube Oscura. It needs some more work as there are quite a few mistakes. Anyway, with regard to myself here is a bunch of corrections:

            Contribution to Apolyton: Spanish Civ II, Civ III, Civ II. No Civ III

            Description:
            He was the 4th person on the Apolyton boards
            I do not know if I was the third, the fourth or the fifth but it's true that I can't think of anybody around who registered before me (MarkG and DanQ excepted, of course)

            and is currently the webmaster of the Spanish Civilization II site and moderator of the Spanish Civilization II sites' forums.

            Correct


            He has contributed much to Apolyton in the Civ II

            True particularly the ethical approach to the game (my code of honor became famous in the pre-MGE times) and the scenario design area

            and III sections,

            Nope. I have never ever posted to the CivIII forum. I won't care about CivIII until I have the box in my hands


            and currently lurks in the Apolyton section of the site and in the Spanish Civ II section giving spanish lessons to Chris 62 and others.

            and the SLeague forum. Used to be a OT regular when there were two OTFs. Nice chats with Dominikosnikosnikos. After the two forums merged I got a bit tired and quit. I visit from time to time though, and post primarily in the soccer threads.



            PS. I had absolutely nothing to do with the post count reduction you mentioned under St Leo's entry. I'm just a mod. With regards to PCRs I am powerless.

                The person could be using his great memory to be doing more useful things, but this is still interesting

                Pretty accurate about me except I was never banned, and a note is I was the first person to get enough posts to qualify for "Emperor".

                  Not Cool.



                  Give him a break, Chris 62. He is doing something which is pretty cool for these forums. Do not automatically assume that mistakes he made were made to insult. Other people who he has made mistakes about have not reacted as you have. You should not be so hostile.

                    Nice list DarkCloud! You always come up w/ some entertaining stuff. I live in Oregon btw, not Washington. Also, 'The Apolytoner's House' was my project but it could also be just as easily listed in about 30 other posters bios. I sure as heck couldn't have done it alone...

                    Stefu, my wife's cousin really wants to meet a nice fella like you. She's been waiting all her life for her husband to be...

                      I understand when some one calls me a liar, all my civility ends.

                      If he had simply gotten some facts wrong, that would be that.

                      However, words like "claims" and "spammed the forums" to me are a GIANT F*CK YOU in my face.

                      You draw the answer you deserve.

                        And even more corrections...

                        Don't mind the grouches DarkCloud, they're just jealous. Of what, I don't know, but they are, I'm sure.

                          That's right, insuling me for no reason is not cool.

                          See my above post.

                          The only "break" I want to give is to bust him one on the jaw.

                          And I'll remind you all, I barely know this guy, yet he saw fit to call me a liar, and then compound it by saying I spammed up the forums.

                          The only thing he deserves from me is contempt.

                            Well BD, not everyone got the reation Chris got. Personally I think that was an error that should be corrected w/ a little humility and facing the mistake. Chris was understandable when he blew his cool, and hopefully will cool down soon.

                            I think this is something that should be easily cleared up considering the maturity level of the people involved, yes?

                              I claim to be 16.
                              I haven't proved it. Ergo its still a claim.

                              Just because DarkCloud didn't do in-depth research on all 100 posters doesn't mean he was slandering you. Sure, he could have asked MtG, but how was he to know who to ask.

                              Just because it is a claim does not mean it is not the truth.

                                Well I am impressed, that looks like a lot of effort, but try and update some of the details when people correct you. This could remain an ongoing effort to get facts. Actually I noticed you didn't mention anything for Chegitz, who is quite a prominent member of the OT community, and Secretary-General of the Apolyton Communist Party
