Can we sweet talk some of the Poly graphics wizards to make a nice e-card for them then?
A special thread might help, along with a Poly news item."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

Sid Meier hasn't been involved with Civ since Civ1 (well, now again with CivRev). Also AFAIK everyone who had a major influence on SMAC moved along with Reynolds to found BHG. So current Firaxis has little to do with SMAC.Originally posted by Mart View Post
Congrats e-card? Do you mean something like from Hallmark? Does that have enough space to place numberous names?

I wanna sign that...
Recently I re-installed SMAX, and wow...no wonder it was -and is- my fav computer game. It still hasn't been beaten by anything, not even GalCiv2, CivIV or anything as fancy
Ten years already? I started to play around 2000...time passes so quickly nowadays

A low-budget thing we might try to do would be to start a thread specifically with the intention that Sid Meier, Brian Reynolds, Firaxis, and BHG get to see it. We could post gaming memories, weird screenshots, and our heartfelt thanks to BHG and Firaxis to that thread and keep adding to it. (Maybe I could stick up a link to my fanfic, or a screenie of that one weirdass time a Believer base that had two other nations' units in it because they were Allied to Believers but at war with each other
.)
That wouldn't require any programming and we could ask a mod to keep going through it to make sure trolls don't poison the well."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

I noticed BHG created a Facebook page:
I don't see how you can leave behind a message on that page though.
Anyway, if there are any concrete plans on what to do, I can release Planetfall v7 a little earlier, and along with it ask people to join in the 'festivities'. That might bring in some CFC people.Last edited by Maniac; January 20, 2009, 15:43.Comment

You need to be a fan of the page to post wall messages.
It is apposite to bump this thread. I created the following posters with obamicon.me to provide bump material.

Happy 10th birthday, SMAC!Comment

Now that I think about it, wow it has ONLY been 10 years. When I first saw AC on the shelf, it was in the old-style cereal box sized packaging in a Babbages computer software store at a local mall. That same store is now a Gamestop.
Just seems like it was more than 10 years ago when I was there.Comment

This was the only game that got me really hooked up to my PC.Comment

*sheds a nostalgic tear at those early days of learning what crawlers were for and such*Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.Comment
