Contribution to Apolyton: Off-Topic whiner

<b>Description:</b>
An Englishman who feels oppressed and neglected. Few people notice him except for other Englishmen who feel his pain.

He took the name Seneca because:

Blame Thucydides...
I don't know where he is now, but I saw his name and though 'Aha! A historically aware, classically-biased site!' Theben was also around, and I imagined him to be somehow enamoured of the ancient city of Thebes (either Greece or Egypt).
Caesar the Great, Alexander's Horse and Alexander the Great were also posting that day, so I felt bound to choose a Classical name.
Cicero was taken, so Seneca was the next best thing.

He usually complains for being oversighted in 'popularity' threads such as "Your favorite Top 10 Posters" and "The Apolyton Hall of Fame", but everyone has a special place in their hearts for loveable Seneca who posts "feel-good" posts and good Off-Topic posts.

Describes himself as an:

Off-Topic Whiner

Contribution to Apolyton: Scenarios, Civ II sections

<b>Description:</b>
There are three Scouse Gits.
One, the original, SG1 is the father of SG3 and a good friend of SG2. SG1 is a civil war and ironclad buff. He likes all things related to war and Civilization II.
SG2 is much like SG1, except his relation to SG1 is that of friend.
SG3 is known to Apolyton as SG1's

brat daughter

(SG3- please do not be angered at me, that is a quote from your father in the Apolyton/Community section )
SG{3}'s a 15 year old named Claire

Currently SG3 is trying to petition for an avatar of her own, because she does not appreciate the ironclad that her father and SG2 use for their posts.

I first got to know the Scouse Gits in August 2000, where someone made a reference to there being three of them.
I did not confirm this until the threre SG's posted in a thread made by <b>CornMaster</b> in November 2000.

The Scouse Gitses are British.

He is always bragging about how rich he is now that he is a retired lawyer in Texas, and yet he has only once said exactly how rich he was Feb or March 2001 in the Off-Topic Thread by Winston"Just how Rich is Lefty?"

About the only place I metion being outside my signature "Older , richer, and wiser than you" is in Winston's thread

Lefty was a rising poster in the Off-Topic and Apolyton Community sections for a few months in November through March. Since April he has spent less time at Apolyton than before, but still posts.

Contribution to Apolyton: Civ III ideas, Off-Topic

<b>Description:</b>
He currently hangs out at The Frontier story forum along with Chairman_Milo, Mao, and others.
He used to post frequently at CGN, but in December he faded from the boards.

I first met Shadowstrike in the Civ III ideas section where we helped craft many ideas together with UltraSonix. Together the three of us created many ideas for Civ III. Shadowstrike specialized in wonders and technology.
He later frequented the Coffee Shop in the Off-Topic, but never truly deserted the Civ III ideas section, and now posts there infrequently.

Currently, with the Coffee Shop gone (It has since reappeared), he only appears at various times at Apolyton.

Contribution to Apolyton: Scenario League, Multiplayer

<b>Description:</b>
He joined in April 2001 and reached 2001 posts in 3 months, allegedly spamming the off-topic, but most of his posts have come in the on-topic.
Not much is known about this poster except that he has served in the US army from 80-86.
He frequents the Spanish Civilization II, Scenario League, OT, General, Multiplayer website forums.

"I have zero fear of taking unpopular stances on things, and will argue adnausium on points if I think I'm right about.
I have a fierce temper, but I calm just as easily, if given a little space.
I lean neither left nor right, so manage to anger both sides in equal measure, depending on the issue.
I appreciate honest people, loathe ultra leftists and ultra rightists.
I will take up causes if I believe in them, often even when I'm all alone in my belief.
I will listen to anyone once, but if I consider you a fool, I will ignore you, and not bother with you in the future. If I consider you intelligent, I will talk to you, even if you don't agree with me on things.
I almost never start topics in the Off Topic.
I was married in 1993 and my son was born in 1997.
Served in the US Army from 80-86, and am a colege grad, with a degree in modern European history (for all the good that does me ) and hardware engineering.
I supplement my income by writing.
I like Apolyton, but post in other places as well, but lately, haven't cared much for the OTs or a lot for some of the people who post here.
I also have made some really good friends here, but I will not name them, for fear that they would be assaulted by my many enemies."

Contribution to Apolyton: OT, minor contributions civ2, civ3 and other games and one viking scribe.

<b>Description: </b>

You can add this to your description: (or replace it, choose for yourself)

I’m mostly known for my Belgian chocolates (Colon’s Chocolates©) distributed by Dominikos in the rare occasions he’s present, although I sometimes give as a present on birthdays.
My greatest accomplishment is my longevity at Apolyton, although I wasn’t here yet when the site was born. Minor accomplishments are my contributions to the Suriname threads and the fact I was once 4th in the rank of post-count. However, my position has decayed ever since, so I’ve decided to support abolishing PC’s as consolation.

He also received a 200 PCR for saying "Please delete the earth:2025" forum.

Even though you admit this does not include all the corrections, I couldn't help noticing that yet again you missed the blindingly obvious - Dave Boshko's real name is Dave Bosko

[loinburger]

Hey hey! What happened to technophile: sexiest man alive?

[rah]

DC, sorry I'm dissapointed. I provided my nationality and start date. But most of all, you left out the reference to the Ferrets

No web site
CIV III
and OT

Please fix in future releases, I know it's a lot of work, but it would be appreciated.

You could have just cut and pasted my corrections

I would hate to have to go balistic

Thanks,
