I apologize and remove the question/stipulation.

Don't worry about it, I'll work this question out given enough time/or just Live With It.

I thought you were Polish. Didn't know you lived in the US.

Oh man; that is just begging me to make a bigoted joke that I'd regret.

PM me the &^%$!#@ logo.  I wanted to help in the first place and now I'm curious, too.

Hey! No fair with the post edits!  You ruined my Hive joke, and it was funny.

We're all adults here, and my skin should be thick enough.

Bigot away!

Oh well - I call upon witnesses to observe that he made me do it.

Do I look that stupid?                                          or
At least you didn't think I was Belgian.                 or
Alas, I lack Polish as well as polish .                     or
No, but I'm mostly German and TOMORROW WE MOVE ON CGN!

We may have to call joke-off here....

POST EDITING YAY!!!

Lol. Polish vs polish ;p

Are you mostly German? What sort of campaign are we to wage against CGN? Do you think Civ Gaming Network should be targeted with heavy probe actions, or are we just going to drive some Singularity Hovertanks to the front door?

...I actually would like to have taken over CGN in February, rather than build AC2 - it had much more content and lurkers, and the job would have been easier and today it would be maybe twice as big as AC2 is now.  I said so in private.

Today, as my sig line says "Here I stand."  My interest in CGN is only hoping that scient finds time to get back to work on the scient-ifficPatch and the bug report crowd has a fine old time.  We'll really owe those guys if the project ever wraps.



I really am about 80% German ethically, including some german royalty.  The Southern Appalachians are supposed to be full of Scotch-Irish, but Momma's geneology research has turned up German after German - in Daddy's background, too.

I'm pure Chinese, for at least 6 generations; the first to be born on American soil.

My last name is quite rare, and indicates about 1200 years ago one of our ancestors was a famous poet/womanizer. Another was a warrior/poet who fought in the Three Kingdoms War- got captured during a fiasco and executed by being quartered by 4 horses.

You should start a Rec Commons thread - this topic gets a little traffic, in my experience.


-Also, I'm ethiNically German.  Typo.  I don't know how ethically German would go, and may have to call joke-off if anyone speculates.

You are free to snip some of these posts to the Recreation Commons, probably under the headings 'Your Origins' or somthing.

Also please try to break an unfortunate trend - I've been horribly betrayed by two different Chinese friends in the community.  Don't ask, because I don't like talking about these things, but do please break the trend before I go all German and racist.

I will split thread tomorrow, then, if sisko don't see this and beat me to it.

I'm not planning to stab you in the back, BU.

About the logo:


Its not coming out well. Perhaps I need to spend a few hours cleaning it up.

Or maybe the coloring scheme isn't good. Or... something.

Normally, I'd love to post PCXs etc on this forum, for it is CONTENT which builds community, more so than activity, but... doop de doop le shoop...

Hey... in other games, some of these "chinese/asian" folks have come to be good friends that I talk to regularly.

Let's be cool. I still enjoy my cup of coffee talking to my friend from singapore over vent off of another game. It is almost surreal.

Tell me more about the problem with the logos - they look fine to me.

Actually, activity trumps everything.  Content is king, but still only bait.  Activity is what the community is, and is for - good friends that I talk to regularly.

Men in their arrogance claim to understand the nature of creation, and devise elaborate theories to describe its behavior. But always they discover in the end that God was quite a bit more clever than they thought.
