Join the club of realists

[Fidel]

lets see if today is the day

[Robert]

uh, LaRusso,

that's a very old post by Mike........
thanks for mentioning anyway

Both Mike and Jeff are on right now !

And of course they're both invited to become a member of our realistic club !

[Rhuarc]

They would of course have to adhere to our rules of not being overly optimistic and blindly follwing Sid!! I wonder if something is up? You can almost feel the excitement in the air, I mean in the fiber optics!

[Fidel]

yeah, that was stupid of me...did not check the date
hehehe, it really is the excitement:0 lemme fetch some coffee....

[Rhuarc]

u had better not get any coffee, we don't want everyone around here to die from a fast heartbeat from all of the excitement with them announcing the release of a beta version right here!

[Robert]

I just got an email from Jeff,

he asked me to not quote him, thus I won't quote him.

Anyway, I've decided that from now on our club will focus
on Civilization III, and write realistic review or previews about it
if we can. Collect information and all that.

I suggest we won't focus on the pessimistic club anymore.
Let them have fun in their way.

I won't reply to pessimistic club stuff as well, since I don't think a battle is needed or realistic. Let's just try to collect as much as possible information about Civ3 !

good luck to all of us !

If you want to you can send revies and screenshots and things like that to me and I will post them up on our website along with a list of members, the motto, and all of that kind of stuff. As soon as I have the page made (should be tonight) I'll post up the address for it! Remember email me here to be listed as a member on the webpage!

[Fidel]

rhuarc, cant be arsed to email you....can you write me in?

[Rhuarc]

Sure LaRusso, I'll go ahead and write you in. I'm just going to start a list right now, and I'll keep watching this thread incase people don't email me. Thanks a lot!

[Sabre2th]

I can't access my email right now, but I'd love to be a member of OfAReCiClu. Count me in

Here are some famous quotes relating to realism:

Reality isn't the way you wish things to be, nor the way they appear to be, but the way they actually are.-- Robert J. Ringer

Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.-- Maurice Setter

If you can't solve it, it's not a problem--it's reality.-- Barbara Colorose

Let us take things as we find them: let us not attempt to distort them into what they are not.... We cannot make facts. All our wishing cannot change them. We must use them.--John Henry Cardinal Newman

The permanent temptation of life is to confuse dreams with reality. The permanent defeat of life comes when dreams are surrendered to reality.--James Michener

A thing either is what it appears to be; or it is not, but yet appears to be; or it is, but does not appear to be; or it is not, and does not appear to be.--Epictitus

You're either part of the solution or part of the problem.--[Leroy] Eldridge Cleaver (Speech, 1968)

Webpage!

Ok, websitehere is my website. I do not have the actual page up yet, but I do have a news flash on it saying the page is coming soon. So be looking for updates as more people get a hold of me! And once again, if people have news articles or whatever, just send them to me and I'll post them up! THanks!

[Fidel]

man too bad not many girls play civ3...u could even pick up some of them with those pics

[Rhuarc]

Motto

I really like the one that says "If you can't solve it then it's not a problem, it's reality" That would fit our purpose perfectly, you know, I mean if it can't be fixed by Firaxis then what's the point in whining over it! Anyway, somebody should do a poll about this, see what everybody thinks!! How about it CyberShy?

Edit: That's a good idea LaRusso!! I wonder if anybody else has thought of using Apolyton as a dating service!!

[senowen]

Personally I like the one by Epictitus. It's confusing, but absolutely true. Well anyway I've made it my personal sig now.
