Thanks again for the advice.

Heh. Actually, I'm eating breakfast. (yea, I know, but hey, that's what's being served at mc-d's right now....) And us factory workers aint sofisticated enough to drink no wine....

Dumbluck,
Well, in that case, a can of Bud to wash down the grease?
BTW: that BWEM site looked good, but wouldn't it be easy to just send the *.gam file?

Afternoon all, right

first off, dumbluck - well efficient response my man - you must have too much sugar in your blood stream, also hope maccie D's sausage patty doesn't give you wind

second, dogscoff - the honour of the Brits is at stake here as we really do not want another bunker hill do we - any assistance would be well appreciated.

third, gryphin - count me in for the PBEM - I will be on holiday until the new year, then in Arizona and then Madrid so we will need to kick the game off say toward the end of January. Which also gives me a little time to get the hang of the game and sus the PBEM thingy.

fourth - honour dictates that I issue a challenge before the game starts so heregoes

"Gryphin - come and have a go if you think you're hard enough" - the UK forum jockeys may understand this better

fifth - question - do you still have alien races on a PBEM or is it a simple - there's Gryphin's empire - kick him in the happysacks?

sixth - sharks??? I'll do sharks if you do skunks - I am a traditional type and will stick with the terran ship types albeit my empire is called the Solar Federation

seventh - 47? I couldn't possibly abuse such an old chap (NB Moderators - this is not flaming)

eighth - Gryphin - I should point out that I charge £150 per hour or £300 for three questions

[Gryphin]

Growltigga,
1st) dumbluck, Yes, thanks for a fast reply
2nd) doscuff, please remind Mister Tigga that the Red Coats won the battle of * Breeds Hill *, (It just cost them dearly)
I am saving a famous quote for an appropriate time
3rd) The end of January sounds good for me for the same reasons
4th) Challenge hereby accepted. Not only am I hard enough, but I am good enough as well, (a pun you will understand some day)
5th) As for my happy sacks, You and what armada?
5th) < broad grin > Hmm, in the USA, we derogatorily refer to Lawyers as * Sharks *. I will be using one of the easier to see ship sets.
6th) Correct, you don't have what it takes to abuse me, (maybe when you are older)
Moderators: Please allow for friendly banter between me and my young but honorable opponent.
7th) I should point out that the *check is in the mail *

I wish I could meet you in Arizona. I have photos of the area around Tucson at my website. www.windingstream.com
I put my gameing history in * How Old Are You Thread *
More later

Paraphrasing the response

2nd - remember Pearl Harbour, the Alamo etc etc - about time you uppity yanks got a taste of good old british steel - there are no French to help you this time

4th - teddy bears at dawn I feel

5th - the armada that will be woppin' (is that how is it said?) you in the game

5th - dont worry, I wouldn't dream of taking advantage of your dodgy eyesight

6th - you ain't seen nothing yet

7th - telegraphic transfer of funds only - account details to follow - please note all bills are to be settled in full within 15 days of request

Arizona will be work and a wedding - apparently Arizona lasses think English chaps are a much better catch than the locals - natural selection really
