When is MoO3 set to be released? Head to head against Civ3 for Christmas 2001?

I'm not sure about which quarter they're planning on releasing it at this time (2nd, I believe), but MOO3 is definitely not coming out until at least 2002.

Wasn't the tentative release date "three months after Civ 3"?

I hope not, otherwise MOO3 would never be released.

Don't quote me on this but...

Let me just say as a close personal friend of ACOLKitty I can say without reservation that she would be a very fair and impartial moderator and would do her utmost to encourage and develop any forum she would moderate. Her integrity is legendary and she is most atentive to detail. She would certainly apply the rules fairly to all who post in her forum and bring a balance to currently white male dominated heirarchy of this site. Please seriously consider her for this post. Thank you.

I am willing to moderate the forum. I like cows

The MoO3 team, last I checked, won't commit to a release date so all we know is that they plan to release in 2002. Hopefully this will prevent them from making the mistakes that we saw in quality testing for SMAC and B&W.


Thanks Walrus. I will ban you last.

Thank you, your fairness is legendary. If I ever step into MOO3 I know my treatment will be on an equal basis as any other. Too often in our modern world we lose sight of the traditions and decorum which smooth the social interactions of a more benign time. With your administration I am sure these ideals will be rekindled and new golden age of moderation will be ushered in to act as a beacon to all those who stive for a model on the use of power in an increasing complex and multiposteral society.

My goal for this post is to strengthen the critical links in Dr. Hell O. Kitty's nexus of justified classism. I shall do this in the only honest way that I can, which is simply setting forth those principles that I personally believe in and that Dr. Kitty personally observes and honors. Read on, gentle Apolytoner, and hear what I have to say. Kitty's well-targeted comments leave the current power structure untouched while simultaneously saving countless Apolytoners from fear and boredom. Are these Apolytoners her friends? There is widespread agreement in asking that question, and there is further agreement in answering it. I don't have time to go into this in as much detail as I should, but in a recent essay Kitty stated that we should accept personal responsibility. Since the arguments she made in the rest of her essay are based in part on that assumption, she is clearly aware that it is true. Not only that, but the first truisms she told us were relatively benign. Still, they have been progressing. And they will continue to progress until there is further truth; Kitty's greatness will grow until it blots out the sun. Kitty believes that a richly evocative description of a problem automatically generates the correct solution to that problem. And I must say, I agree with her.

If one is opposed to ignorant, truculent misoneism (and certainly I am), then surely I am deliberately using colorful language in this post. I am deliberately using provacative phrases that I hope will stick in the minds of my readers. I do ensure, however, that my words are always appropriate and accurate and clearly explain how much I want to talk about this. I really do. But I am aware that many people object to the lack of brevity in my language. Still, is there no cause for verbosity? Naturally I think there is, because I'm willing to accept that a sure-fire way to elicit support for Kitty is to anneal discourse with honesty, clear thinking, and a sense of moral good. I'm even willing to accept that I have great interest in getting tangled in the rhetoric and dogma that she frequently verbalizes. I suppose it's predictable, and terribly appropriate, that well-read intellectuals with strong voices and minds would support her constructive recommendations. Follow them! Kitty has simply been offering them as a means of supporting sacred icons. Perhaps I'm reading too much into Kitty's speeches, but they seem to serve the purpose of preventing warfare in a largely unprepared and unrecognizing poster population. Many people respond to Kitty's issues in much the same way that they respond to television sitcoms. They watch them, they talk about them, and they feel an overwhelming compulsion to do something about them. That's why I believe we should open Apolytoners' eyes, minds, hearts, and souls to the world around them. In closing, we must strive to free people from the fetters of boredom's poisonous embrace. Dr. Hell O. Kitty can make a difference, forever and always.

if we go ahead with it, we will not be looking for forum moderators. the on-topic forums barely need moderators. what we're going to need though is people to create and maintain a section

dan will shortly be contacting those who have, well, contacted us . if he doesnt, feel free to send him a horde of moo-ing cows

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

I think Kitty would be so good that we'd all get really over-excited and run around shouting and stuff.

AnnC has been set loose on the random complaint generator once more I see

If you'll observe, that's an endorsement not a complaint.
