Has MarkG poisoned our Game?

No, I do that strictly on a "Strategic" basis...

Oh, and happy to post that, Ming. What's right is right.
I just hope we all feel better now.

I trust that the current voting, which essentially says 21 "no" to a paltry 3 "yes", answers any concerns that the majority of us think the creation of a Civ3 Democracy Game is a negative thing or that it was in the least way meant to threaten our game.

Ming is another story. As many of you know, we are long-time buddies IRL and I see him at least once a week. It's true that Ming has displayed a disparaging attitude to this forum, at one point (verbally) telling me he thought it was a "dead forum." But so what?: He feels that way about a lot of fora, and he's certainly entitled to his opinion (however myopic and uninformed it may be). In essence, he's just indicating he has no interest in what we're doing. Which is fine.

This is the story I was thinking of, -Jrabbit posted details of that conversation the next day, so at least I didn't dream it. But what I seem to have failed to realise was that -Jrabbit and Ming were such buddies, and that -Jrabbit's post at the time was more in the line of a friendly dig than serious criticism. I apologize unreservedly for any misunderstanding I've caused. No hard feelings I hope.

(I note that Ming denies the quote anyway. Well, that's between him and -Jrabbit, I was just remembering what I had read).

Particular apolosies to MarkG who is clearly entirely innocent of any wrongdoing!! Yes, I did notice that "major update" of May 21. Great stuff.

If I had seen it then, I would have denied it too... It's just not true. JR may have interpreted something differently, but I by NO MEANS EVER SAID SUCH A THING!

And JR is usually in the same condition as I after one of those sessions

Here, for the record, is the thread on which -JRabbit referred to the alledged conversation.

Actually, if I remember correctly, my comment was a long the lines of "a good single player should be able to beat a team effort" because decision by commitee is not the best way to make decisions

I'm going to have to remember to tape our drunken conversations on Friday nights in the future

[War4ever]

that would make for good audio sound bites for apolyton......come listen to Ming and War trashed on a Saturday night duel.....

first episode is whine, and more whine , the duet!
