Best Game On the Planet : CtP - casting vote Bruce Shelley from whoever.
Who would have stood for that? One or two of you would have bit, I'm sure.
Fine. Mr J. Morris Citizen is fully entitled to his view on this subject as a human being. However, I seriously doubt the ethics and wisdom of Mr Jeffrey Morris FIRAXIS opining upon his own work.
If it was done tongue in cheek, well, fine. But, in light of his earlier comments, was he opining on the original socially friendly form or was he voting on that nasty narcisstic version where the bugs had been expunged.
Simply, was he voting in the same poll we were?
Is he on the same planet as us?
Are FIRAXIS?
Opine here.

It's like voting for yourself.
You may be able to that in SMAC but I do not really regard that as a suitable electoral model for conducting a poll.
Presumably, though, Mr Morris conducts his own life in the same buggy way as SMAC.

One man, one vote. It's not like it's a secret ballot. We all know who voted for what and can adjust our expectations accordingly.
As if it even matters. What is this, census data? Do I have to be sworn before posting?

pompous smug gits like you are even worse than these complainers
