Coming up: Wolfpack Hvy Winter Fever! Watch this space for the
announcement.


> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Fri Oct 4 13:02:23 2013
Hi!

Everyone doing ok?


> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Tue Oct 8 17:21:27 2013
Hey, I'm on top!!

Woohoo!

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Wed Oct 9 06:18:40 2013

Boy, you folks sure are a talkative lot!!??

As I was saying...seems me and Squid traded places.
I was getting a sinking feeling that I'd remain at the bottom,
but after anchoring off a few ships I definitely felt lighter.

In the meantime, Rude&Crude continues developing his fleet,
having taken a huge lead from the start.
Just hope the sailors have those big tattoos done right!

Loser, being the first sailor to find land, seems to know a
thing or two about compasses. Wish he'd share that
with the rest of us. Anyhow, he sits comfortably ahead in sectors.

Squid, shilling, pound?? Err, nevermind. Squid sure knows how to
party! How else can you explain the population explosion there?
Of course they party, with their island being blessed with
deep natural reserves.

Meanwhile, Heathens seems to be the place for furthering your
education, with their graduates being sought far & wide.








> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Wed Oct 9 06:41:30 2013
What are you doing looking at sailor tattoos, Knaris?

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Wed Oct 9 07:25:39 2013

What do you look for when you look at sailors, R&C????

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Wed Oct 9 11:47:40 2013
So my co-ruler is Rude. That makes me Crude. So let's get right into it.
There are three levels of "disgusting" to just about everything. I offer an example:
Level I: The gallon bottle of TJ Swan, retailed for $4.29. Seriously, this is
the stuff that makes radiator fluid taste so sweet.
Level II: The woman that will bed just about any guy that offers, as long as
she has drank 1/2 a bottle of the TJ Swan. Her blood has more bugs in it than
the No Pest Strip at the $15 hotel she lives in.
Level III: The guy that actually has sex with this woman after the TJ Sawn. And
it is really disgusting when you realize that guy is you.

> Announcement from Squid, (#6) dated Wed Oct 9 14:39:03 2013
Must be something in the water, that or TJ Swan is on clearance again.

TJ Swan is ALWAYS on clearance!

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Thu Oct 10 06:26:59 2013

So bettings open on who can drink more TJ Swan...

Rude or Crude...


> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Thu Oct 10 11:59:57 2013
We often get asked what the differences are between being Rude and being Crude.
We offer the following examples:
Rude is knocking on your neighbors door at 2:30 AM just to wake them up.
Crude is taking a dump in your neighbor's mail box - when you know there is mail in there.
Rude is photoshopping your ex-girlfriend and posting the topless sun-bathing pics
Crude is taking 2 bra sizes and adding 30 pounds to her ass
Rude is going to local sports bar and turning off the local team's football game
Crude is turning it the Jacksonville Jag's game

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Thu Oct 10 12:01:01 2013
Damn typos. "taking OFF 2 bra sizes..."

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Thu Oct 10 20:29:29 2013
Let's take a vote. Please send your ballot in to the deity.
The issue being "Can we enable bridge towers?"

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Fri Oct 11 06:23:52 2013
Aye

E. Nable

> Announcement from POGO, (#0) dated Fri Oct 11 13:54:35 2013
I'm willing to enable option BRIDGETOWERS if all viable countries
agree before any viable country reaches tech 80. Give your yay or nay
by announcement or telegram to me.

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Fri Oct 11 16:15:46 2013

What???

A diety that actually listens to our prayers???
I must be dreaming!!!

On second thought,
I vote for 10000 bars in my bank!

Please cast your vote for putting 10000 bars in my bank!

It's time for the Possum Lodge Word Game!!!
And today's not so special guest is perenial fodder material - Wales. And he'll
be playing for a this beautiful 24 karot gold, diamond necklace
clasp.
Okay Uncle Red, you have 30 seconds to get Wales to say the word **Navigate**
**Navigate** Time starts now!
Okay Wales, suppose..
Hi Red, it's great to be on the show. thanks for inviting me.
Yeah, well, you know you can't interupt like that or you won't win.
Ah, what's the point? I never understand this game. I'll never win.
Well, not with the attitude. But let's concentrate right now.
(SIGH) Sure, whatever you say, but it's pointless.
Now, suppose you build some ships, and load some crew on them. What happen's
next?
My neighbor usually sinks them.
No, no, your neighbor isn't close by and you want to move your ships. What
do you do?
Pray that the torpedos miss?
No Wales. Nobody is going to sink your ships. They're not in any danger.
Oh, you mean I'm the only player in the Changeling blitz?

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Fri Oct 11 20:59:17 2013
Times almost up Uncle Red.
I know Harold. But this idiot is never going to get this right. Wales, you
just don't get this game, do you?
Not in the least Red. It's way too complex. Do you know how many commands
there are? And it's nearly impossible to navigate through the information pages.
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Thu Oct 17 11:55:31 2013
It's sooooo quiet.

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Thu Oct 17 11:56:56 2013
All the better to hear you, my deal Red Riding Hood.
Opps, wrong fantasy. Sorry.

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Thu Oct 17 11:57:11 2013
I know I forgot to move a ship...just can't remember
which ship...hate that.

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Thu Oct 17 12:58:56 2013
Yup...I knew I had forgot something....NOW I remember!!


ugh!

> Announcement from POGO, (#0) dated Fri Oct 18 05:35:22 2013
A player asked for a vote on slowing down the update schedule.

The current schedule should ensure the game reaches a natural end
before it resets.

However, since there are just five countries playing, I'm willing to
slow down to one update every other day, provided all viable countries
accept.

You can accept or reject by announcement or prayer.

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Sat Oct 19 11:46:05 2013
Who else is dedicated this (early) Saturday morning? :)

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Sat Oct 19 11:55:52 2013
Not me.

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Sat Oct 19 14:59:34 2013
So this guy's plane crashes in the middle of nowhere and he has no idea where
he is. So he is wandering around for days, nearly dead, when he gets captured
by the local Knaris nomads. they tell him their traditions require them to kill
him unless he can pass the three tests. the 1st test, he has to drink 2 bottles
of Loser whiskey. then he has to jump in the pool with the giant squid and pull
an infected tooth. Finally, hidden in a cave is an old ugly Heathens woman that
is so hidious, she is still a virgin. He must make love to that, err, her.
So the test starts and he does his best with the Loser whiskey. He finally
downs the last drop and they point him to the pool. He is drunk, he just falls
right in. Immediately, the giant squid is all over him. Splashing, crashing
waves, unspeackable sounds. and it goes on and on for almost 15 minutes. The
Knaris tribal elders are as silent as the spectacular is noisy.
But then all is quiet. And a bloody hand reaches for the edge of the pool.

> Announcement from Rude&Crude, (#3) dated Sat Oct 19 15:02:13 2013
Then slowly, the man pulls himself out. He is bloody, cut to pieces, and
scuker marks are all over his body. He manages to stand up and straighten
himself. Still obviously inebriated, he finally says
"naa naaa now wheeeeeeeere is the old Heathens woman with the bad tooth?"

> Announcement from Heathens, (#5) dated Sat Oct 19 20:44:32 2013
anyone ever have a report window continually popping up every time you do a command in winace?

> Announcement from Knaris, (#2) dated Sun Oct 20 04:10:52 2013
Heathens: There's an option under View/Options: Send Output to a Report Window.
Maybe that's what's causing it?

> Announcement from Loser, (#1) dated Sun Oct 20 19:48:05 2013

Rude&Crude proved that I am a loser

My goal for the game was not to be the first one eliminated

I thought I had a good start, but didn't pay attention to the BTU

I moved my c to a 0% efficiency setor but moved no civs in and then went -1 BTU

It took forever for a 0% c with only 2 civs to gain enough BTU's to move civs into the c

By then it was over.

Good job C&R

Have fun

Woof! Woof!
