Strange, I am not getting any data error (unlike the first time I tried to load turn 1) - I am on straight unadulterated 1.67 with no TDM modpack - I wonder if that helps

GrowlTigga, young cub,
Yes, you could say more CTW than I ever dreamed of. It has kept me away. I've also had a sky full of bandits on my tail at work. I keep looking ror my wingman but he is busy using Point Defence Cannons on the ones that get too close. People expect computers to be: Easy, Smart, Infalable, and Perfect.
Computer ar: Complicated, Literal, Stupid, and, "They do what you tell them to, not what you want"

Well, dont indulge in too much CTW as it can make your hair fall out (look at me, I am a case in point!!) and I am sure you dont want to lose your furry fellah and locks do you!!

the "bandits on your tail" I can understand fully - unfortunately, the quality of wingmen one has these days is not that spiffing so I would advise you upgrade from point defence cannon to sidewinders

Good to have you back - keep posting - I cannot lose my chief protagonist at this late date

GT "indulge in too much CTW as it can make your hair fall out (look at me, I am a case in point!!) " Um, did mac give you the secret with out the warnings? I disavow all responsibility for your follicle failings. It happens I have a genetic immunity to the baldness thing. Mac really should have warned you.

Mac what have to say for yourself????

Gryphin, in regards to "They do what you tell them to, not what you want them to," I must introduce you to my 733 Mechanical Beastie. It has given me more fits then there are whiskers on a tigga. I swear it has a life of its own and justs like to antaganize me whenever I must use some of the internal whatevers in order to proceed with my ambitious playing trends. Talk about losing hair...... I'm trying to quit smoking and that d... metal pile of fur balls causes most frequent relapses, sigh, maybe someday they'll invent one that all you have to do is tell it what to do and it'll do it, ughhh

I have not formented any secrets of CTW or the TGP, mainly because I don't have any.. I'm still researching this aspect of this most intriging piece of science. I have been experimenting with various theories but I'm afraid more extensive work must be done to accomplish the actual designs and rudimentary facets of this artistic form. Therefore, if the Tigga has lost his fur I would feature to say that it is due to his own attempts at resolving the CTW and TGP issue. That and possibly seeing the bills that Mrs GT has formulated due to her recent demise under the garage floor. One must wonder what one has done which created the incredible....

In regards to our game, Mephisto reports problem occured during the move, he is working on it...

be careful, be very very careful
look to the sky
its "THEM"

just some ideas mac

Well, I must confess to be generalising about the whole sticky circumstances of CTW - as I am only a cub, I dont actually specifically know what CTW is and would be grateful if someone could give me the specifics

GrowlTigga,
"biting legs off everywhere", Wonder if you have bitten off more than you can chew, "to coin a phrase"

Hey, Gryphin, I wondered where you had got to. Have you been off circling the wagons and perfecting la posición traviesa?

I might indeed have bitten off more than I can chew and you are dead right in coining that phrase my boy - good to hear from you, keep posting regularily old boy

Yeh, I tried to load the next turn Last night and got the data error message......

but then who cares, I also got invited to one of those sorts of parties Last night.... 20 young ladies in their underwear doing the conga is a vision which I am pleased to say will haunt me for a long long time...

Mrs GT was not very happy though when I turned up back at home at midnight singing the 'I'm climbing up Sunshine Mountain' song - I dont feel bad however as she went to one of those Chippendale evenings
