*THE EB TAVERN*

[Horst Nordfink]

On hopefully a less depressing note, I went to see Black Sabbath (with Ronnie James Dio) last night. It was the loudest gig I've ever been to! I thoroughly enjoyed it!!

I need to see Sabbath with Ozzy now to compare.

Iced Earth and Lamb of God were opening for them. I missed Iced Earth and Lamb of God were Lamb of God-awful.

[Horst Nordfink]

:bump:

It's been a bit quiet in here recently. Over a week without a post.

Was my crack that bad that it killed the atmosphere?

EDIT: Bootsiuv, clear some space in your PM inbox, I can't reply to your message!!

Yes.
You are a heathen.

Now, i think it is time to discuss biomechanical nuclear penguins. I have drawn up a rough sketch here:

https://img215.imageshack.us/img215/5236/penguinwd5.png

As you can see, it is still rather primitive in form, with the power production relegated to the external nuclear reactor carried as backpack. Possibly the replacement of wheels with tracks is also in order. The rectangular box in the abdomen is the multi-warhead plasma torpedo launcher. Other features include GPS, radar, satellite phone, MP3 player and easy internet access.

[Horst Nordfink]

A heathen? Why am I a heathen?

Crack is not drugs! Crack is conversation!

[Malik of Sindh]

Against what are you going to use these penguins?

[Markus_Aurelius]

The commu-nazi's?

[Malik of Sindh]

I rather use them against Lithuania or ancient Rome.

[Horst Nordfink]

Lithuania is a strange choice? What have the Lithuanians ever done to anyone?

Now France, there's a country that deserves the penguins!! They will break up their incesant strikes.

[Leviathan DarklyCute]

why France? Iran deserves to have them much more:tnt:

[Intranetusa]

Yes.

That looks like Robot Chicken. :)

[Emperor Burakuku]

I want one of those. Where can I order one? Do they come different colours? Do they need food or fuel? Can they play chess?

[Horst Nordfink]

why France? Iran deserves to have them much more:tnt:

Now now, lets not let this descend into something ugly! We're all friends here, this isn't the place for nastiness.

[Emperor Burakuku]

Now now, lets not let this descend into something ugly! We're all friends here, this isn't the place for nastiness.

I cannot understand why France or Iran deserves more than Burkina Faso or Malta. But I can't really understant people I guess. The more of them I know, the more I love my dog. And I'm gonna stop here.
What about my Robot Chicken? I want a blue one.

[Horst Nordfink]

Of course France doesn't deserve them, I was just being silly. I was just worried that our Israeli friend maybe didn't understand that there was no malice in my suggestion and possibly actually intended these killer nuclear penguins attack Iran. I was just warning him that this isn't the place for any anti-Iranian sentiment he may or may not harbour.

I personally think that the leading nations should acquire their own nuclear penguins and use them as a preventative weapon to ensure there is no more war!

I live in Lithuania and I thought it could be a nice firework.These things are beautifull you know?

[Emperor Burakuku]

I personally think that the leading nations should acquire their own nuclear penguins and use them as a preventative weapon to ensure there is no more war!

Why do you think I want one?

P.S I know exactly what you meant and it was also very funny. Is just that not all people get it like you and me or Malik who's selfdestructive nature once more gets to the surface.

[Malik of Sindh]

Selfdestruction is fun.

[ciprianrusu]

I want one, painted black onyx, with spinners, and 19" rims. And an Xbox. Can i? Can i? Please!!!!

Against what are you going to use these penguins?

The "undesirables" :beam:


I want one, painted black onyx, with spinners, and 19" rims. And an Xbox. Can i? Can i? Please!!!!

Right now the only color scheme available is metallic purple/white pearl. Rims are good, there are also 23" versions, with scythe blades attached. Unfortunately the Xbox is for some reason uncompatible with the penguin, the only console that works with it is the Atari 2600. I'm not sure why.


That looks like Robot Chicken

What? What chicken? I don't know anything about no chickens :inquisitive: That's crazy talk

Ok. Give me the metallic purple/white pearl model, with the scythe blades. The chicks will be all over me. Nothing impress them more then a nuclear penguin with 23" rims.

[Hax]

I need a drink. Badly.

Well we're not going to stop you... :whip:

[Malik of Sindh]

I just got one of these penguins.how do I activate it?

[Horst Nordfink]

England were playing Croatia tonight at what yanks would call soccer, but the rest of the world would call football. This was the decider in the European Championship qualifiers.

And England lost.

And do you know what?!

I'm delighted!! We didn't deserve to get anywhere near the European Championship. And our "manager" Steve MacLaren will now be sacked! The best news since that unsufferable Swede took over.

The best night in English football for 12 years!!

[Treverer]

<enters the tavern, nods to the barman & and those he's acquinted to and moves to the table where a friends sits. Orders a drink and asks:>

@ horst nordfink: have you any information about Scotlands standing in the E.C. preliminaries?

<waits patiently for both the drink & the answer>

[Admetos]

Yeah, we didn't deserve to qualify, but it's still going to be a shock not playing next summer. Beckham should have started, and David James should have been in goal after the form he's in at the moment. McLaren should never have been made manager in the first place, he was there all the time with Sven, so if he was going to do anything significant, it would have happened before. Get Mourinho or O'Neill in.

EDIT: Unforunatly, Scotland also went out, but they on the other hand, I think did deserve to go through.

[Dayve]

Full name's Damian Cunliffe, 19 years old, love ancient history (which is why i love EB) and drunk as hell right now. :smash:

Oh yeah, i'm English... Unfortunately, can't choose where you're born. Oh cruel fate, born in the wrong milennium and in this shithole they call England. What did i do to deserve it!?

And i've run out of cigarettes. :(

<waits patiently for both the drink & the answer>

Well Treverer my friend, Scotland failed to qualify, although they really deserved to, as they beat France twice! As an Englishman, that was hard to say!

As far as I'm aware, Scotland have been moved to the the second tier of European football for the up-coming World Cup qualifiers.

England should hae dropped to 184th somewhere between Vanuatu and Luxembourg ;)

There's always next time, when we'll have a proper manager. Not a National Express driver.

[ciprianrusu]

Well, it's true that England's play sucked in these qualifing campaign, but the Euro 2008 will not be the same without it. They lost on their own hand, after Israel gave them the chance to qualify. It was a big shock for me, that Croatia managed to beat them on their own ground.
On the other hand, we (Romania) have qualified top of the group, ahead of Holland:yes:. So, drinks on me!!!!

[Bava]

My sincerest condolences to all the english fans out there, the cup wont be the same without you. But this raises an interesting question: Against whom is Germany going to win in the unevitable semi-final penalty kick, then? Austria?!

[Horst Nordfink]

At least we deprive the Germans of someone to beat.

My tip for the Championship?



















Croatia.

<sights>

Well, as a kid I was a big fan of Scottish football ... weren't they once one of best teams of Europe, even the World? <sights again, remembering past times>

Oh, and Luxembourg was a few years ago (relatively) strong in Football matters, but now, we are ... ehm, promoting the "Olympic Spirit" (or idea). <orders a drink and remembers again past times, then sees Dayve searching for cigarettes>

'Ere, lad, take one these!

[Horst Nordfink]

I was only kidding about Luxembourg pal.

Scotland have always been rubbish. Although, now they're pretty good.

[Treverer]

Scotland have always been rubbish. Although, now they're pretty good.
No offence taken, as our football team is even for/to/in (?) our own standards awfully bad for the last 2-3 years.

Well, back in the 70's & 80's Scotland WAS good, they reached regulary the quarter- and/or semi-finals. And I was referring to that time, when I said I was a kid.

<grumbling something about getting too old>

[Horst Nordfink]

Apologies Treverer. I was only going back to the 80s and 90s.

[Treverer]

Apologies Treverer. I was only going back to the 80s and 90s.
Not needed, how could you know how old I am (after I turned off the display of my age). I was born in 1970.

P.S. Say, how's your Makedonia campaign doing?

Haha you can always play our team if you want to win :beam:
We got 7 points from the qualifying tournament :wall: :wall: :wall:

...6 of which against Andorra :furious3: :wall:

[Treverer]

@ blank: Didn't our football heroes once win against either one of the tree Baltic national teams, well, ... uhm, back in the glourious days around 2000 A.D.?

<grumbles something about paying more attention to football matters>

EDIT: not be misunderstood: it's me/I who should watch more often football on tv.

[Horst Nordfink]

P.S. Say, how's your Makedonia campaign doing?

Not well, I am suffering from some chronic CTDs at the minute. I foolishly changed a name in decr_names and now I get a crash every couple of turns. So until I either re-install (a prospect I am not relishing) or figure out how to stop it from CTD-ing, all campaigns are on hold.

That said, I was going pretty good. I had forced KH from mainland Greece and had persuaded Epeiros to become a client state for a while whilst I beefed up my economy.

Hopefully I will have this problem licked soon, and I can get back to my AAR, or even start it.

I may have to go cap in hand to Bovi, he seems the man in the know.

[Treverer]

@ horst nordfink:

Do you have tried to delete the "map.rwm"? Deleting it solves many problems most of the time? There are more than one "map.rwm" though. I, for safety, delete all of them. Last time I had a problem with repeating CTDs, it helped.

T.

[Horst Nordfink]

I completely forgot to do that! :wall: :oops:

I will delete them all when I get home and see if it makes any difference.

Cheers Treverer!:beam:

[Treverer]

Good to help you, and even better if it might be the problem!!

[Horst Nordfink]

Right, I've got home only to realise that I don't actually know where the map.rwm is. Which may make it difficult to delete.

[Treverer]

Right, I've got home only to realise that I don't actually know where the map.rwm is. Which may make it difficult to delete.
Try the "search" tool of windows. ~;)

EDIT: ... or go to the EB bug & help subforum and look for a sticky named "... map.rwn & ... clean 0.81". Inside, you should find your needed info.

[Horst Nordfink]

Sorted. I'm criminally naive about computers. I will finish messing about on the web and try it later after the missus has finished spending money.

look at the sticky !! see my previous post!

[Horst Nordfink]

Deleted the map.rwm and started my campaign again. I got 5 or 6 turns into the game and thought it had been sorted, but alas, it crashed.

Time to go ask Bovi.

[Admetos]

If all you did was change descr_names, then just extract that file from your installer using 7zip and copy over the old modified ,one with the new, clean one.

[Horst Nordfink]

I don't have my installer on my computer anymore, I deleted it to save space.

The draw for the World Cup qualifiers was today. Some interesting groups.

Group 2 Greece, Israel, Switzerland, Moldova, Latvia, Luxembourg

Group 6 Croatia, ENGLAND, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Andorra

England get Croatia again!

Luxembourg have an easy group. Should romp to victory in that group Treverer :laugh4:

[Treverer]

Group 2 Greece, Israel, Switzerland, Moldova, Latvia, Luxembourg

...

Luxembourg has an easy group. Should romp to victory in that group Treverer :laugh4:
Well, I second you, of course I do.

... but I will enumerate what facts you have forgotten to mention:

- Greece is disqualified because all 11 members (!!) & x remplacants are married/coupled and thous form a big family, especially if from Sparte or Thebeia ...

- 'Cause Israel is is the first world wide target of computer-game-based-war: The attackers are known by the codewords "Gray Death" and "Yellow Death".

- Switzerland declares the State of War/Emergency (or however it is called), as there are some Italian fans from Rome trying to transit the country: Every MAN (the footballers are enroled too, as this is the not the female EU-championship) is called to arms against those invaders.

- Reports from our spies, eh ... from TV-news say that Moldavia is invaded by Romania and/or some Kossaks from the Steppes. Apparently a large group of Overseas Greeks (not from the U.S., nay, from the northern Turkish coast !!) rush to their defences but arrive too late: the football team was among those being enslaved and thous deported.

- Latvia ... ehm ... Latvia ... well, seeing that are they are the only other team in the group, they take up the challenge to defeat Luxembourg. But, oh yes! but they are defeated thanks to the 2 HealthPockets of our Frensh supermedic (but there was an ugly scene at the beginning of the match, as he uses to wear no clothes, until one of developpers, ... ehm, nomenclatura of the FIFA just gave him a little somewhat to cover his <bleep>) and to the Lusotannan Mercenary football players that the Luxembourgian team coach/manager was able to hire.
Though L. has no level 2 mine (BUT I WILL WRITE TO THE UN AND DEMAND ONE FOR US L.), though our budget's still in balance, and though our mnai- ... eh, euro-reserves are high, this incredible intelligent-risk-take was made possible by having tohe brilliant idea to sell/demolish ALL the EU-buildings and banks in Luxembourg-City, giving us a so reallly, really truly amazing sum of mn...EURO to hire these Merc-foots.

Hence Luxembourg will be the winner of that group, or as we say: "Daat waer domat bewissen!" If, oho! if you have facts coming to another conclusion, do not forget to name your sources. Any response without the propper sources/citations or written in a strong language will be taken into consideration.

... oh, and the best screenshoots ... scenes of the match will be published in the documentation "The Mouse that Squeaked - a Luxembourgian Football Match AAR".

Been listening to Floyd Mayweather vs Ricky Hatton on the radio. Couldn't buy the pay-per-view because I have to go to work.

Absolutely gutted by the result, but I don't think that Ricky Hatton had any business fighting in Welterweight, all his strength and power is negated by the weight step up. He still fought like a lion and didn't show himself up against arguably the best fighter for quite some time.

Comming back today, I saw a very funny thing:

There was this drunk guy crawling around in the road, wit his trousers round his knees, a can of dear in one hand and his belt in the other.

Funny, but the really funny thing was what he was saying: "help me Fraser!" in the most weobegone, pathetic tone I have ever heard, you would have thought he was being dragged off by alliens or something.:laugh4:


I politley restrained my laughter untill I was round the corner, then I laughed all the way back.:laugh4:


Funniest thing I have seen in a long time - "help me Fraser!":laugh4: :laugh4:

Can anybody tell me plz what you get balloons and medals for and who gives them away?

Your Jack Bauer?!?!
Ah, thank you for asking that:

1. It shoots before asking questions.
2. Its expertise is torture.
3. It can go for 24 hours straight.
4. It works in seasons.
5. It can make the opposite sex say whatever I want them to.
6. It's highly regarded for extinguishing flashpoints.
7. Its favourite caliber is 9mm.
8. It knows what's right and wrong, but still has no morals.
9. When there's an emergency, all laws are obsolete.
10. It auditioned for the role, but was rejected for being too bold.

[Alexandros Maximus]

*Opens the Tavern door, slides in quickly, walks up to the bar, does a little c-walk real quick and sits down*

*spins around on chair to look at everybody*

Yo...Wassup everybody, i'm alex, i'm 18 and i'm from New Jersey (you know, that place across from New York) :us-newjersey:

I grew up with Age of Empires, which i played incessantly 'til i was about 16...That was when i bought Civilization III and got hooked on that. Then when I turned 18, i got Civ IV and I was hooked on that like crack...I got both expansion packs and everything!

Then I decided to buy R:TW with my birthday money...little did i know it would be the best game I ever played.

I soon grew tired of the Movie-like depiction of the factions in the game, as my years with AoE had me beome a history buff...being that i'm Italian i was Big on Romans.

By chance, i stumbled onto EB during a google search, and i eagerly downloaded it, the claims of accuracy enticing...

My dreams came true when i started my Roman campaign...No more annoying Senate!!!


Currently i'm studying at Morris County college, Majoring in Game development.

I also took Wing chun Kung Fu for about a year and now i'm starting Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do :chinese: Martial Arts Are cool.

Hey boots! Can you get me a bottle of Sapporo and a Double shot of Jack on the rocks? Thanx.

[Admetos]

Hmm. Where is Bootsiuv? I haven't seen him around in a while. His profile says he hasn't been online for four days, but it's been longer than that since I last saw him post. We need a new bar-man, we're getting thirsty... :whip:

[Alexandros Maximus]

somebody get Pharnakes...and hope no Galatians come up to the bar or we're all screwed

i can see it now...*Wavy Daydream Sequence*

"Who let this Galatian Scum in here?!?!"

*pharnakes starts throwing bar stools everywhere*

*end Wavy Daydream Sequence*

[pezhetairoi]

Bootsiuv has contracted a case of real life, most specifically of the New Baby Boy strain. He probably just reads the org at night to occupy his time till the next time the baby cries. Knowing how org members love to post, he probably keeps getting interrupted the moment he clicks 'quick reply'. xP We should all give the bartender a big congratulation cocktail!

[Alexandros Maximus]

well i guess we need a new bartender...somebody PM pharnakes, or Foot. see above post for warning about letting galatians in the tavern.

[Admetos]

Well first of all, congratulations Bootsiuv! :birthday2: :birthday2: :birthday2:

Alexandros Maximus - Bah! Why do we need Pharnakes, he'll just bring his stupid ponies with him. Plus, he *should* be busy making a map, but there we go... I vote for me. Then we can have all the Galatians we want, everyone likes Galatians, don't they?

EDIT: Wow! Thirty pages now. That's alot of posts.

[Alexandros Maximus]

Galatians aint bad...Just be ready for them to drink up all the mead we have in stock.

Hey can i get my 22oz. can of sapporo and double shot of jack on the rocks pleez?

And can i spark up this blunt in here? promise i wont get too high and goofy
:hippie:

[Admetos]

Have I been elected then? :beam: If so, I'm sure we'll have plenty of mead.

Bootsiuv has a new child to deal with! Last time I checked I was the second highest poster in this thread, so I will take over as barman! Guinness is now half price!!

Do the regulars agree with this? I will rule jointly with Admetos if this is agreeable?

Galatians are more than welcome!

Is it only we Swedes that celebrate christmas the 24th? (on christmas eve?) we even call the 25th "christmas day"(juldagen), but we still celebrate it the 24. on christmas day we do nothing! :inquisitive:
It makes no sense!!! :wall:

Lucky you Alex! I remember when I used to have to visit my grandparents every Christmas (that stopped when my Nan started going "batty"). But looking back on it now, I miss it because that became part of Christmas and New Year for me. And now not seeing them this year at all (practically our whole family's ill :laugh4:, luckily I'm not... yet...), well, it'll be odd.

[Horst Nordfink]

House as in home. I do not dig that soulless electronic bullshit.

We had a bit of jazz playing, then someone put some Stevie Wonder on. It was all very middle class and civilised.

I still brought it down a few levels by hording all the beer and swearing too loudly.

I hate to be the bringer of bad news, but I think it's better that you know, so you don't get your hopes up. I am sad to say that Santa Claus died this morning in a car accident. He was taken to Lapland Central Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Tragically all four of his reindeer had to be put to sleep. His last words are reported to have been something in the line of "Ho... ho... ho...". Needless to say, you shouldn't expect any presents this year.

Merry Christmas everybody, even under these circumstances.

Well, the Christmas niceties are over. It's 10 to 6 and I'm still sober! Never has this occured before! All this flitting from pillar to post doesn't allow optimum beer drinkage.

Every season of Red Dwarf on DVD

A book about Carthage from 1958

And Merry Christmas to you aswell Boyar. :san_grin:

[Disciple of Tacitus]

Hurst Nordfink has the right idea. What fun/cool/useful and not so useful things did everyone get for X-Mas?
Me. I got a few cool things...
Best one... "Justinian's Flea: Plague, empire, and the birth of Europe"
Second best ... a wonderful bottle of Port.
and - oh yeah - black socks.:san_cool:

[pezhetairoi]

My presents:

The Arab-Israeli Wars by Chaim Herzog
Volume 1 of the Penguin Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, from Trajan to Gratian/Valentinian II
Volume 1 Part 1 of the Cambridge Ancient History: Prolegomena and Prehistory
Theodore Ayrault Dodge's Hannibal

Lovely stuff, but only because I told the relatives exactly what I wanted for gifts. Otherwise I might've gotten random tshirts and socks.

Hello fellow EB’ers!

I just wanted to pop into the pub, chug down a pint of ale, or two, say hi, and most importantly congratulate the developers on a great mod. I have been a lurker on here for a while, because I have been looking up vital info *spoilers* for my ongoing Romani Campaign, and enjoying some of the great humor on here. I am currently at 179 BC and starting to get fatigued by the duration of this campaign but I am having a great time.

Good to see 'ya Caesar, welcome to the Tavern. :ave:

Does anyone know of whom the Roman Commander was responsible in instituting decimation among the ranks? What year was it, also?

Is there a Roman trait that reflects this in the game? :idea2:

[Disciple of Tacitus]

Hey Pezhetairoi,
Tell me more about Dodge's "Hannibal" book, if you would be so kind.

According to the oft maligned source, Wikipedia, the earliest documented decimation was in 471BC during Romes war with the Volsci.

As to who was the commander, that is harder to say, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say it was either Appius Claudius Crassinus Inregillensis Sabinus or Titus Quinctius Capitolinus Barbatus, as these were the consuls at the time. Although I could be, and probably am, wrong.

Now, buy a drink or get out! :laugh4:

[woad&fangs]

The Aedui have been crushed beneath my heels.

The Romans are my allies

My lands stretch from Lemonum to Mediolanium to the mouth of the Rhine and my eastern border has been fortified against the Sweboz.

This was a very merry Succulosmass for the Avernii.

Happy New Year's everybody!!!

[Admetos]

The Aedui have been crushed beneath my heels.
Thats what I like to hear :beam:. :smash:

A free drink to woad&fangs. And anyone else who has crushed the Aedui for that matter :beam:. :whip:

[woad&fangs]

Before you start being too nice to me I should probably mention that when the galations rebelled against Pontos and joined my faction I destroyed everything possible in the city, disbanded the units, set taxes to maximum, and then delighted in my now brimming treasury.:2thumbsup:

[Admetos]

:furious3: Get out! Now! :whip:

:laugh4:

[pezhetairoi]

Hey Pezhetairoi,
Tell me more about Dodge's "Hannibal" book, if you would be so kind.
thanks.

It's a narrative cum analysis of Hannibal's entire career and campaign against the Romans, from Saguntum to Nola to Zama, in the Punic War. It's made from the military point of view, so there are detailed maps, topographical analyses that have been gone over in person by the author in his travels, and the fixing of several battlesites' locations.

Also includes a detailed stage-by-stage description and mapping of Hannibal's crossing of the Alps and the battles he fought in there. Every single engagement is included and most are mapped so there is great detail. It's all you'll ever need if you wanted to know how Hannibal's war against Rome went from beginning to end. I'm now at the crossing of the Alps and the chapters so far are very well-written.

But you must expect the language of early-1900s acadaemia, very formal and cultured, with some bombastic words.

Yes, Arverni rock! :D

[woad&fangs]

Happy New Year to all EB players

[Hax]

It's a narrative cum analysis

Come again?!

One other note: Jägermeister is crap.

[Horst Nordfink]

I agree. When I was in Amsterdam in September, the barman at the hotel we were stopping at kept giving us Jagermeister. I've sickened myself on it!

[Hax]

Damn it!

That guy isn't doing much good for the reputation of our Great Tiny Nation!

Nah, he was cool. It would've been better if he was handing out something nicer. But at least it was free!

(btw im quoting that from a Foxtrot comic)

[Horst Nordfink]

The White House is made from sandstone from the town I was born in. That is possibly the most boring fact, ever!

Also, it is the town that George Washington's father and Thomas Jefferson's family was from. John Paul Jones also raided the port during the American Revolution. There is some history in this town.

I just got hit a glancing blow by a car yesterday on my leg which turned into my road without stopping to let me cross, despite the fact that the green man was on and it was my turn to cross. He even tried to accelerate so he could turn in before I crossed into his lane. But I walk fast. He actually managed to get past me before I ran into the car while trying to stop.

The idiot. The day after my birthday, too. Mfft. Maybe I can buy the local lottery and strike first prize, now. :)

Gave me a few scrapes and a twisted ankle. Dammit. They sting like all the circles of hell. Good thing he noticed me in time and braked, or I wouldn't be talking to you now.

'Please, I am certain that is not the appropriate orifice for the insertion of your purpose-specific organic structure. Evolution seems to be suggesting a lower altitude for such unique dichotomous interactions.'

....You have...defeated me...

I...surrender.

It comes with age, y'know. In 6 years you'll be able to spout gibberish like that. :D

Hi

It seems I am the latest addition to this Merry band of EB lovers.
My real name is Martin and I live in Sofia, Bulgaria. I studied Politics but dropped out which I regret now and I am getting back next semester to finally graduate. I work in the university though which is kinda ironic:)
And I will have a glass of vodka.

Hi Martinus, welcome to the Guild! :balloon2:
I am not gonna to join you in vodka drinking contest :no: , but if you would accept Zagorka or Kamenitza - than I am right there ~:cheers:
I love red wines from Targoviste or Pomorie too :2thumbsup:
Well, Pesherska grozdova is not bad either... :inquisitive:
and Mastika might be even better... :quiet:
...O.K., a glass of vodka and back to work again, :dizzy: :laugh4:

Hello, thinking of getting eb but is there any way to donload it without it taking 2 hours? Anyway, it sounds good.

[pezhetairoi]

No there is no way to get it otherwise, but at least I can assure you the game is more than worth the trouble. :) If you think it only 'sounds' good, you should wait until you play it.

[mrdun]

Wetting my lips in anticipation, I used file front. I will be more patient!!

[pezhetairoi]

Just...I don't know, read the EB website again even if you have done so many times already. Or, y'know, make a cup of coffee? Try to make it last for two hours, and read a book...

[mrdun]

Okikoki, as soon as i'm home the two hours will start!! I'm sure it'll be worth it.

[Leviathan DarklyCute]

I've been thinking...
This thread is old, very old.
It has been here since the dawn of history itself, and saw many downfalls and revivals. It's wisdom, acquired by experience and immortality, motivate me to verbalize the Great Honor I sense towards this thread. I bow before thee, aristocrats of EB
:drummer:

[pezhetairoi]

Hrm. It isn't old, and there certainly isn't much wisdom accumulated in here of all places, unless you're talking about that odd moment of lucidity and epiphany you get for a split second in between absolute drunkenness and unconsciousness...

But I take your bow, shameless considering myself an EN aristocrat too. *bows graciously back on behalf of all EB aristocrats*

You may want to bow to those on the Celtic Overpowered thread though, that's even older than this one, and that's a collection of wisdom alright.

It's the Devil's work!!! The Celtic overpowered (it's not even spelled correctly! :skull: ) has been sent on Earth as a punishment for our sins!! :egypt:
