I HAVE PCBOLO AND I WILL RELEASE!
Josh Sherlock
Hi,
I have a copy of a program called WinBolo 1.0b created by none other
than Microsoft's gaming division. Its in beta testing stage, but its
pretty kick butt. Is there any interest in playing bolo on a PC?!?

As to the second matter, haven't you *ever* read this newsgroup before?
Do you even know what Bolo is? Do you even know what a computer is?
Idiots.

I actually tried it. It's awesome, it's got a bunch of great features
we've been wishing for years...and it even has Microsoft's great trademark
feaures: - it crashes every 7 minutes.

If MS made Bolo, then Bolo would have a web-browser, graphics editor,
and spreadsheet incorporated. That would rock.

Features like the tank-catapult? Or more like trane trax (don't
laugh, I've tried to figure out what this might be for years)?

I'm going to post obvious lies about PC Bolo or something similarly
idiotic, and
you will feel compelled to reply in such a way that you think I'm really an
idiot, rather than just trolling to see how silly I can trick you into
acting in
response to my antics. I am the most tedious sort of idiot.

I've never had control over your bladder (except that one time), so how could I
lose control of it?

Hey, Jolo. Good job on the forged headers. I almost thought it was
really Russ.

Interesting. Almost hooked me. Sort of a meta-troll. It's postmodern, I
kinda like it. Timely, too. Maybe that's just serendipity.

With a quick trip through dejanews, I found the original beginning of the
train track joke. Actually, I remembered this lamers handle so it made it
easy to find his original post.
YoYo, like most newbie boloers, quickly became highly ridiculed and only
stayed in the bolo commmunity for about two to three hours after this
post. Of course, his trip to #bolo helped expedite his departure.
Look this one up in dejanews and follow the threads for even more entertainment.

I think if bolo had an trane track option that would blow me away.
Players could build there own track and randomly hidden tranes would
appier depending on how many players, when a tank gets hit by the train
you lose some armor, there could be a gun on the trane, pluse you could
add the feature of riding on the train. The actual train feture isn't
needed just the train track would be nice.
Thankyou,
