(this is the place where yin comes in and starts to cry about "if the website already has bugs like these, how many bugs will the game have............." *grin*)

[yin26]

Actually, that would fall under my 'Horrid PR' thread.

[KrazyHorse]

Wonderful. Some programmer got lazy and actually designed a template for screenshot pages, forgetting to round up after he included a "divide by six" operation...

[Inverse Icarus]

blah. leave dan be.

he's leaking information and slacking off om his web-duties.

hush.

[Robert]

hey, it's just *funny*
I mean, who cares ? I'm just proud to be the first to discover it

(or the first that bothers enough to publish it )

[Fidel]

what did I win
(suggests: 100 screenshots, and some ask the civ-team questions about mult....whatever )

btw, I see you already fixed it !!!!
pretty fast action !
pretty good btw that that's the only bug we found so far.

(if we keep out the wrong answers in the trivia of course )

keep up the good work !

The fix was fast because it was a server replication error, but nonetheless, you win yourself a no-prize.

Sigh, I guess I'll just go play Civ III for a while to drown my sorrows.

NOOOOOOOOOO

Stop torturing me please! Just release the damn game, so I can stop drooling every time I see a screenshot!

[Gramphos]

He changed it to two pages with the number 3.

No, 'twas an even sillier thing, I didn't have the necessary "placeholder images" at the end a completely different file. I guess my college professors were right when they said cutting and pasting was evil.

sigh.

No, they're still wrong. How else would liberal arts majors graduate

[Robert]

the bringer of the bad news always gets punished
It used to be in the past, it is that way in the present and it will be that way in the future
And all I tried to be was kind and nice and you know..... and all you get from those evil web wizards................

You know what Dan,
right now it's 24:00 as well overhere, and I'm working as well because of all those @#$^@#% deadlines !!!
But I'm not working on a freaking GAME, but on a normal workflow application *sigh*

And tomorrow is the deadline.

Hey, those problems are ways bigger than yours,
I mean, your deadline is next month, and you can reach the deadline by playing CIVILIFREAKINGZATION III

Sigh, I guess I'll just go play Civ III for a while to drown my sorrows

Sigh, I guess I'll just go and programm QAPI VI for a while to drown my sorrows
this world is an unfair place

(did I cry enough now to earn one tiny new screenshot *sob* )
