    Actually there are lot of things to be optimistic about. We will get a god game, good graphics and a manual. What else could you whish.

    If only Dan could release the editors as the game ships in US and UK so I could have something to do while waiting for the Swedish release.

          This is fun. And even though it is a lighthearted approach to debunking the naysayers, it is warmly appreciated.

            Cheerfully throwing in with the optimists!

            Shall we vote on articles of secession from the pessimists?

            (Sorry, influence from the OT Forum...)

            I have seen no major reason to be worried about Civ3. I am excited...

                By jingo, thats confusing!

                Soon Civ 3 will occupy my every waking hour - I hereby officially join the Optimists team/club/sect/whatever

                Erm, what exactly are we??
                I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                  Markos will be closing these threads soon before it all gets out of control like last time.

                  Thanking Mark ahead of time for doing this.
                  However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

                    I am not trying to cause trouble. I just wanted to show my enthusiasm for civ3, and show Firaxis my appreciation. Please don't close this thread unless it really turns bad, which it hasn't.

                    to others: please don't use this thread to bash anybody!

                    'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

                        The epitome of pessimism.

                        Besides, there's a drinkin' thread still open... Does Mark take the weekends off? If so, then there's a LOT of cleansing to do on Monday...

                            If you are not trying to cause trouble then why did you title this thread "Optimist Unite"? Also, had these comment "We need to stop this negativity that is overrunning this board." Now this appears if you are trying to stop people from expressing their opinions. How can you back these actions up as not being troublesome?

                            to others: please don't use this thread to bash anybody!
                            I'm sorry to tell you this but it's too late for that. "So, you pessimists: be aware, we optimists will rule this forum once again!", "The problem with the pessimists is they assume too much.",


                            I should note that I am purposely giving you a hard time.

                              I admit I was once a hopeful pessimist. However, with time I grew to see the light. I have now crossed over to optimist!! Of course I don't know what the penalty for treason is in the pessimist camp?

                                You will be bombarded with ineffectual whining.
