I\'m curious…
…where are you avid Dominions fans located? It seems like there's quite a big European following, which I guess makes sense since Illwinter is a Swedish company.
I myself am from Ireland, living in USA |

Re: I\'m curious…
Well I may not be French per se... but I am married to one http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif For some strange reason I always try to seek out other French gamers, living in New Mexico kinda puts a dent in that though, oh well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
I'd appreciate it if you'd consider me for any French type activities, if nothing else it helps me keep up my vocabulary http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I think I'd greatly enjoy a French PBEM or some such, maybe my wife would get a kick out of it too when she has to come help me translate the insults I'm sure to generate http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif |

I'd suggest a Gaelic PBEM game, but my Irish is so rusty, I spit out red iron flakes every time I try to say something in it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif Where in Ireland are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

Re: I\'m curious…
Licker : no problems. In fact I wanted to say : 'anybody able to speak french is welcome'
Pdf : you write articles in Store4war? cool, you will help tremendously IW in France in doing so. both : email being grabbed. Treebeard : There is also Jacques(Nagot Gick Fel). The game is still running, albeit at a slow pace. |

And yes, I write articles and hope we'll have 2 pages for Dom2 in a next issue ! The game deserves it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif But with the delayed release I think we'll miss the November issue deadline, so it'll be published in early 2004... |

Re: I\'m curious…
hello Jasper.
You should know that french is a garbled language... when you think french, you should invert all the words, nearly http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I too speak french je parle aussi francais simple. Just try to be logical, then revert all your logic. Like if you try to think 'womanish'. sorry. I like women. They are so useful. sorry again. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif |
Re: I\'m curious…
psitticine: I'm from County Derry - up north, just the other side of the border from Donegal. Of course, being on the other side of the border I never learned Irish, something about which I am pretty regretful. So a PBeM game in Gaelic wouldn't do me too much good! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
Where in Donegal do you hail from? (my mother's hometown is Moville [sp?], up in the northeastern corner of Donegal) [ September 23, 2003, 18:07: Message edited by: st.patrik ] |

Thanks for the tip though; I know some people get offended when their language usage is corrected, but I find it's the only way to improve. -Jasper Qui mal parle Français ;-) |
Re: I\'m curious…

But with a name like that, and being it is/was in Donegal, maybe they just renamed it to something Gaelic. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif [ September 24, 2003, 01:26: Message edited by: Psitticine ] |
Re: I\'m curious…
that's pretty interesting… St. Charles… It definitely doesn't sound Irish. Any idea where in the county it was located? How long ago was this, BTW?

Re: I\'m curious…
It was somewhere on or near the Donegal coastline, possibly even on one of the Atlantic-side islands. It was in the late 1600s and early 1700s that my ancestors emmigrated, and that's where the specific placename appears as a place-of-birth as well as a point of departure. The records of their forebearers go back to the 1300s, but there's no record of earlier birth- or deathplaces beyond just "Donegal, Ireland".
I've wondered many times if the records got muddled and "St. Charles" was never really a place name. It would, indeed, have been a weird thing to name a town in Ireland. It's only the fact the references to it are scattered through several unrelated documents that makes me think it is a valid reference. Ah well . . . the search continues. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif |
