Great Rollo glad to have you aboard for the bash, as soon as the tigga recovers from his pie bath, hopefully he'll download his empire.... hint hint you wiley Kat...

slowly mac stops his voracious fall down the dark and damp hole under his chair by using his oozing pie covering to stick to the walls of the chasm, he slowly starts making his way back up the rocky slopes, ever upward towards the light of the cantina..... to be continued
PS. he uses his cell phone to order more pies during his ascent upwards......

a struggling sticky mac

...Taz carefully peers in the door and notices all the pie residue...imagine having a food fight and not inviting ME!

Hmmm, yep this place is still open for business, so I quickly place my beer order.
With beer in hand, I notice that someone is trying to climb up from a hole in the floor.
Can't make out who it is...too much pie on him!!
Well, guess I'll tie this here rope to the pillar and drop it into the hole. There. WHO EVER IS DOWN THERE GRAB ON AND I'LL PULL YOU UP!

Mephisto / dogscuff Yes, I posted that, "eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate, eX-wife" in "How Old are You" thread.

Maybe it's time for an accreditted SEIV glossary. Who coined the term "Glass" in relation to wiping out planets? Is it SEIV specific or does it used in wargaming generally?

Still as GrowlTigga points out the size of my "sex drive", I now have a release for it.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Would that be release V1.0 or is it still in beta? Have you put it onto the upload forum?

*Dogscoff realises what he's saying, looks at his beer accusingly and then sadly shakes his head...

Saxon staggers in, looking desperately for a reprieve from work and illness. Smells the stench of dog poo and rancid cream. Staggers back out.

Now that Tigga is almost well (physically at least) and able to play, it is time of another member of the Cantina to disappear. I have to go to Ghana for two weeks work. I will try to con a different laptop out of the IT guys, as the notebook I have will not run SEIV. The screen resolution will not put the entire thing on the screen.

dogscuff,
I didn't see it as "stealling", Probably my ego wanting the credit. I'm sure similar claims were made on the banks of the Nile while the Praymids were being built. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
As for glassing, we could start a thread on that. I first heard it used 25 plus years ago as a solution for the Mid East situation. The idea was to "glass" the area from Turky down to the Mid East and across North Africa to the Atlantic Ocean. A little radical for my taste.
None the less, it was egocentric of me to claim the "first use".
I'm probalby one of the most insecure people you will ever know of.

As for the Version of the release, for me it is V1.0 and I hope the final Version.
Beyond that would constitute more than you wanted to know.

rollo your accepted.

Tesco is on holidays for two weeks. He might just live here. Does this place have a patio.

Oh look there it is. Tesco goes outside sits down and orders a nice rasberry wheat ale to cool down with and portobello burger with tossed greens on the side. Tesco pays his tab and starts a new one on saxon's tab.

AS Mac slowly gropes and struggles upward out of the dank abysis, he finds a dangling rope, Now where did this come from, he mutters to himself, He grabs the rope and pulls himself up into the sunshine of daylight.. aaahhhh, he looks around, sees the TAZ standing by the rope. Thanks Taz, didn't know how long these old bones of mine would hold out... Bartender bring the Taz anything he wants, (within reason that is http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ) put it on my tab. After shaking Taz's hand/paw/extremity Mac looks over his favorite table which no longer exists, just a leg laying on the floor, he sighs, looks for a new table, sits down and has a fluffy bunny bring him a large box full of cream pies, opens up some papers with diagrams on them, and beginns making notes........, He looks up as Saxon enters and then leaves, hmmm, Bartender on 2nd thought, put Taz's bill on Saxon's tab he yells.....

a very exhausted but still sticky mac
