Apolyton & CivFanatics Merging! (APRIL FOOLS)

[ZEE]

i am in, and so far so good... it seems they have formed some sort of "underground insurgency" to fight the merger. i will try to learn more...

[Will9]

I finally got the e-mail. It was in my spam folder. That proves the sight is nothing but spam.

[Colonâ„¢]

I approve of the merger as long as I get to keep my 1970 status.

I was hoping this was for real, and that the joke was that it was in fact for real and not a joke, but that civjunction website and their claim GOTM would be Plus removes that hope.

[mrmitchell]

you forgot to put it on the apolyton.net front page

[Robert]

Sounds like the Diplogame community is about to expand!

[Will9]

What does this mean for the mighty Banana!

[Guynemer]

Don't buy it. Not for a second.

--April 1st

--Incredibly lame name

--Why on Earth would CFC do this? What exactly would that site have to gain? They have more users, more mods, better organized... I prefer Poly for the community, but they've got their own group, they have no need for ours.


This is bull****. Very well-executed bull****, but bull**** all the same. Well done.

Some of the excellent posters we have here, for one .

[Guynemer]

No, seriously. This is the critical point. They've nothing tangible to gain. Why go through that headache? This is where your joke breaks down. A for effort, though.

[Jaguar]

How about we make them take Will9?

[BigFree]

/me does not believe it for a minute...maybe for a second, but definately not for a minute.

Yes, but I have posted at CFC in the past as well.

Looking at the CFC thread on this subject reveals a much higher level of naivete.
Kinda pathetic.

But a lot more posts in the same timeframe.

CFC is much more negative on the idea too, we on Poly can easily see the advantages as CFC has all the mods, good databases for storing them and larger size. Poly has the subscription system, perhaps CFC is in need of funds which would explain why their putting one of their better features under the subscription service, CFC had to contribute something to get a slice of that money. I agree I'm not fond of formerly free service requiring subscription, perhaps if financial health improves this could be repealed.
