Sid is a genius. All this time posting as Yin, making pessimistic people think the game would suck. Yep, this Yin character is a genius.

[Rhuarc]

Wow! And here all this time I have thought that Yin was some Jerk who is just always negative about everything and won't give anybody or anything a chance!! I should have kept in mind that this is Sid we are talking about and that is just like him to do something like that! He even headed up the Official Apolyton Pessimism Club for a little (until Markos closed it down!) Great job Sid! I don't think anybody here had a clue!! So all this time you have been sitting here reading our complaints and our begging sessions to Firaxis pleading that they give us information on something, and here you have been with all that information! Oh well, I would prefer to be kept in suspens about a lot of the game, that way when it come out I can be amazed by how wonderful it is!

I ... have no words .....

this actually .... wow...

way to go ....


I haven't been posting in the civ forums for a long time , but I was reading and keeping track all the time ...
wow ... amazing ...



I would like to personally to thank you , Sid , for months of gameplay .


amazing ...


*stands up and leaves , shaking his head in disbelieve*

[Zanzin]

I cannot believe this!!

I was actually talking to Sid Mier!

Either that or.....Yin is really just pulling on everyones legs in a very very big way.

[Windborne]

I'll believe YIn is Sid when sid comes out and says in on the firaxis site. Until then I'm not going to kiss yins smelly feet, I might catch something.

[Zanzin]

lol, it's gotta be him. It all makes sense now.

In case anybody is wondering about the "old Yin" from SMAC days, he mailed me one day and apologized, saying he'd post under a new identity from then on and hoped I'd understand he was just trying to help. Of course I understood but asked if I could keep the name "Yin" to post under later on. We've both been having great laughs since.

Oh my God! You're so shocked by Civ III weak points that you lose your mind!
What a tragedy! The man once helped to realize so great task as The Longest Incredible Suggestions Thorah of all the TBS games ever is now gone forever!

Now, can someone send a message to the Seul equivalent to 911 emergency number? Meantime Yin, if you can listen to me, take two of the brown pills. No, not those yellow, the browns!

are people still considering that crap might be true? it's not even funny, why are you guys even talking about it?

yeah...


at least somebody here must be Sid...

:banned: <- hadn't seen that one

[Wittlich]

Hmmm, I really don't know what to think about the Yin=Sid connection.

Hey Markos, any input from your court concerning this dilemma?

[Provost Harrison]

Heh, funny one Sid *ahem* Yin

[dainbramaged13]

ooh ooh i have an idea .... maybe.... ITS NOT #^@%@^$#% TRUE!@!!!! ever consider that???

Im sorry, but its just not true. it just cant be. sid meier would not have enough time to do all that posting, and even moderating Its got to be a load of bs. if it isn't, you fooled me way too well and too long, sid, and im sorry, but i really believe that its not possible that yin is sid. im with whoever said that i want to see it somewhere official (ala the firaxis site)
