    Thumbs up Sailing off...

    Well this is it. I handed my resignation in a few days ago and I will soon be a Member again.

    I have decided to give up on TW games for good. The last two but one games were very disappointing and the brilliance of the first two will never be recaptured. The latest is not to my tastes so I won't be going down that route either.

    In view of all of this there is not much point in me staying around moderating or posting in a subforum for a game that I no longer play and have already played to death.

    I may check in here now and again, who knows.

    Thank you.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Well, that's unfortunate for the rest of us. We shall miss your presence, caravel.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    What the hell... Game over?!? ….This is both unexpected and unfortunate. I see and understand your reasons for doing this – but I do not greet these news with joy. Also, you should thank nobody since you have served others more than enough, so if anything it should be the other way around….

    So, I for one would like to thank you for all your services here at the hall. I hardly ever do stuff like this, but today is an exception; this is for you Caravel

    Ok boys, all together now!

    A pleasure to have conversed with you, and I like all others wish that you may find a new realm of enjoyable strategy games for when the urge to conquer and rule sets in again. Pity MTW seems to be all there is and most likely ever will be.... a bygone era....

    Best of luck to you, Caravel, it's been a pleasure to know you here. I'm not as active with M-TW as in times past, but still come back to see what's going on now and then. Hopefully, you'll do the same and we'll all get to enjoy your wisdom and sense of humor again!

    Cheers!

    Farewell, Caravel. Not that I don't understand you reasons for leaving (because I do), but it's still going to be a grayer place without you.

    I'll miss you, chum. Take care.

    Thank you hanging in as long as you did.

    I agree with with your reasons, but the .org has lost a repository of knowledge and an extremely helpful advisor. I'll still be able to "Let's see what Caravel had to say about ..." but it just ain't the same w/o you here.

    Good Fortune to you in RL

    And Glenn!?

    You just steered me into EB (renewing my interest in TW in general)
    Take care, and enjoy

    Good luck out there Caravel, I completely follow you. Going back to lurker status to cool off, and then anything may happen. I think you have been very knowledgeable and friendly and I wish you all the best

    Well, Caravel or as I'll always remember you, Caravellini. You were one of the first tw ers I came across on the other board, and you've always been a haven of knowledge and sound advice.

    My blessings, prayers and best wishes go with you - remember to watch out for, and be careful of guys in red wearing Roman style skirts.
