Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

has anyone else noticed how the Cantina seems to be dying a death? has it run out of pork scratchings and chicken itchings? has everybody else been barred and not told me?

Shrek, somewhere in here is a description how to sent the files to me. If you cannot find them I will have to repost write a documentation again. However, I will be in Italy from Friday till Wednesday next week.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Cheers Uberteufel. I will scroll down the thread and find your words of wisdom.

I will then see if I understand them to send you my race (I am still trying to marry up the Piundon shipset with the Terran race portrait and flag!!!) - what did we decide on racial points?

What are you doing in Italy? is she attractive?

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

"Doing myself in", I admit my sweetheart does want a lot of attention and my experiments do take a lot out of me.
You once mentioned a Mantacora in a Private Mail as a counter to my Gryphin being 1/2 Feline and ss such able to deal with Tiggas.
"allwwed to post here" was in responce to your "Banned" jest.
I'll try to find the post

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Mephistos Post on how to send him the files:
It is currently 5 pages in and was posted on:
posted 24 March 2002 20:06
Which should make it easier to locate in the future.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Cheers Gryph - can I reccomend Metatonic BTW - I find it is a great restorative if you are feeling down, done over or in your case, probably done in!

Manticores, Chimaeras, Griffins, Hippogriffs whatever, they are all catfood in one form or the other

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

I don't know what Metatonic is, but I'm sure it is not good for me.
I was offering to make you a Racial Portrait with a Mantacora body. Do a search at Google.com on +furry +mantacora
Let me know if there are any you like.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

PS: Tiggas = Torp Targets

Metatonic is a vitamin complex and is quite tasty - you buy it in chemists and health food shops

Can you do me a racial portrait of that girl I sent you? if not, the human portrait will do!

As for the remark about "Tiggas = torp targets", I am not going to dignify that remark with a response

"Gryphins = poor quality catfood"

A group of law students from my court decided to make a little voyage to Italy so I organized it. And yes, she is attractive. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Good for you Mephisto, I was beginning to get worried about you

When you say she is attractive, do you mean she has nice fur, good legs, long ears, big eyelashes and a wet nose? or is it big teeth, nice scales, good wingspan and a lovely tail

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

If you are serious, yes I can make a racial pic of her.
"Poor Qualty Cat food"? You are apsolutely correct. But you wil never know because Tiggas will be dinnin on my torps.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Gryphin, actually, it would be more than my life is worth to have that paragon of virtue as my racial portrait - No, I cannot do that so please could you just use the dorky picture of the terran from the SEIV game.

PS I will send you the website address for that lovely young lady so that you may ponder to your hearts' content

PPS you have a torp fixation, I suggest you seek counselling

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

My sweetheart will spend more time at the delightful site.
I can send you the Sweet Racial Pic so you can use it wint another rase. Hmm, I wonder if I use it as my pic will you shoot at my ships?
(or just try to capture them)
I am already in counceling. She said "sometimes a torp is only a torp"

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

If you use Ines Sastre as your racial picture, I would be your best friend and yes, Iwould not blow your ships up

BUt if you do that, I will use a picture of a Woolly Bear as my racial portrait and you will think that you are looking in a mirror!!

Torps are torps, I personally will look forward to carving you up like an oven ready duck with an PPB

[ 09 April 2002: Message edited by: Growltigga ]</p>

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

"looking in a mirror!!"
That won't stop me from schreading your ships. There is more about me than you want to know.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Gryphin my boy, you are going down a la Hindenburg - you have as much chance of shredding my ships as I do of waking up tomorrow morning with both Ines Sastre and Kylie Minogue

Mephisto, dont spend too long away, genießen sie schönes Italien, genießt ihren schönen gnadige fraulein, glücklichen hund (is my spelling bad or what?)

You may think you shall visit destruction on me similar to what God did unto the Sodomites, but believe me my boy, what will happen to you will be as bad as what the Sodomites used to do to each other

Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough (we know you are good enough in name only)

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina

mac sounds good. Post the name of the game when it is set up.....

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

I'm still allowed to post here, It has been another 7 days with "Bogeys on My Six". When you find the thread will you copy and past it so I can study it also?
I'll get those altered ternans to you or would you prefer a Mantacora?

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Gryph, good to see you still around - I thought you may have been a victim of, ahem, one of your own experiments and accidently done yourself in

Mephisto's summary is about 3 pages ago in the Cantina - I saw it earlier on.

What do you mean about Mantacora? you have lost me there? if you need a name for my empire, call it the Solar Federation (anyone remember the Rush 2112 album?)

Why shouldn't you be allowed to post here?

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Mephisto, yes, I was trying to say "Lucky Dog" ie as rightly said, a common english colloquiallism, I did ask a German chap we have working for us and he said that was the nearest I could get

You can say "Du glücklicher Hund" but I did not get the right context so I was lost. My fault. :-)

Well, I REALLY can understand that. It is very hard. That’s a reason why I learned English. It is just easier for most of world population to learn English then German. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

yeah and I only learnt the German I did because I once had a dream about marrying Claudia Schiffer

From the "New Player Struggle ling" Thread:
Posted by GrowlTigga
Gryph, trust you to have a tactic for "small and tiny"
I am sure there is some double entendre here but is completely escapes me.

Can anyone help me out?

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

double entendre and barb-ed insult my boy

you are learning, you are definately learning

BTW anyone seen Mac? he doesn't post as much as hge used to - do you think he is sulking because of the revelations made about his trollies or is he off practicising for this game

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

GT, I have been real busy at work and haven't had the chance to take a breather, also my youngest son deleted my Sulfnbk file by mistake and now we've been having trouble getting on AOL, don't know if this is what's causing the problem or not, from what I've been told this file has to do with networking and internet files. I don't know if it would affect my PBW game or not, anyone have any ideas or info on it, or how I can bring it back??

In regards to my "trollies", I have hired a private eye to investigate into the disappearance of some of these items in questions. I posed the question to my wife, but alas, she took the 5th???

Tesco, how about the "Galactic International Bash", or is this to long??

GT, His most imperious, all knowing, ever enlightening, Highness, Twixle the 4th, of the Tka-chik empire, has always been one to continue to endeavor into the realms of research, alas, this quest however is very costly, therefore, he is open to any and all salutations in regards to compensation to further his races completeness with the universe, in regards to scientific study.
In fact our new CTW cruisers have been recently upgraded with mixed crews to increase the fighting moral of our All victorious Navy, especially in those systems far away and continued research into a TGP weapon system is currently underway, the cost is high tho, so we are always looking for additional funds, resources, tech etc to help our most esteemed race expand throughout the universe in search of scientific knowledge...But, we have the know how to defend ourselves if need by..... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

In regards to the names being listed, I haven't tried it yet with the Gold, but in 1.49 and others when I turned the names and the Resupply, yards etc on, they covered overe each other and were hard to read, I don't know if this has been fixed with GOld.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Twixle the 4th????

You are scaring me Mac, you are really scaring me. I am also worried about your CTW cruisers and the TGP weapon system.

The fabulous furry felines of the Growltigga Imperium are pleased to announce that they have finally completed construction protocol on the 'Furry Fellah' Battlecruiser design - combining this with our new "Moose Kisser" missile system and the galaxy will tremble to the sound of our paddy paws - and as for development of the "stubborn understains" delivery system and "Mac's Kaks" claoking system - we cant lose

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina

Seems GrowlTiggas scare easily.
Um "Moose Kisser"? Shouldn’t that be, “Anti "Moose Kisser" missile system? Or has GrowlTigga taken up new habits?

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Please sent me your files not before next Wednesday. I won't be in town and my mailbox might just not be big enough.

The Sulfnbk file has nothing to do with networking or the internet, it is used for long file names under does. I would provide it to you if I only had W95/98/ME. Try this link http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q301316

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Tks Mephisto, I'll hold off until next week on the my race files

Also, Growltigga has sent me a clandestine Email, it appears his new powers that be within his work domain has set up some restrictions and therefore, he has stated he shall not be on the forum as much as before, In regards to the game, I emailed him back asking if he still would partake I'll let everyone know as soon as I hear.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Hey Mes. Send emp files to you or upload them to PBW ???

This is a PBW game right. 1.67 all human players following the guidelines by MAC ??

I thought that you would only run the game if we were using a non standard mod.

I will send them to you regardless,,, thanks for running the game. But wouldn't the PBW game help you out a bit since your not playing in the game.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Tesco, how about the "Galactic International Bash", or is this to long??

Is not on the PBW site. But sounds good

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

In fact PBW sounds like a good option. I will still setup the PBW game and do whatever I can so that all the players only need to do the absolute minimum. Back on Wednesday!

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

I am pleased to announce that I have spoken to the powers that be who at my work who have agreed, only as it is embarassing to see a fully grown 6 foot Shrek lookalike crying, to give me back access to the forum

Tesco, I haven't had a chance to download the new patch yet, hope to this weekend.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

i have downloaded it and I am having the problems that were reported on the gold patch thread.

So I will reinstall the game this weekend.

I still have not tried the gold Version at all.
