Look, Foreigners, I don't hate you guys, but
Like seriously, you all have no culture. Most of you don't even make good movies. Many of you talk funny, and don't eat enough meat. Try driving an SUV, it makes you feel powerful. And seriously, what do you do for role models? I mean you don't have ANYTHING that compares to Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian. Also, why can't you afford designer clothes like a real person? USA, baby. USA.

Attention all gunboat snobs
Would you guys hook JimTheGrey up with some quality gunboat games for a lot lower than 500 point but-in, he's a F2Fer still trying to build up his bank account, and he told me he would kick all your asses if you were brave enough to play him...

If Jim wants to earn some easy dollars why doesn't he play no-hopers like me. I've got about $130 he could do with in his quest to join the big dogs, there must 6 other players who have pretensions of adequacy that he could nick a $100 off, that would give him $600 profit, how much more does he need?
MadMarx (36299 D(G))

Jim is interested in quality games, not gaining points, the points are merely a means to an end, not the end itself...

MM
I understand that so just like any up and coming star he beats up a few bums in his early days, earns a bit of cash which will give him a shot at the title. He only needs another 600 to get him into your $1000 games, I'll happily let him come take my money if he's hard enough.

Hm.

MM, you sent me this in private: "Still a little bitter, I see, sorry about that, hope you can leave the past in the past sometime soon though, for your sake and for mine..."

But I literally have no idea what you're talking about.

All of my comments in this thread were light-hearted banter (much like the easy banter between me and zultar) - sorry if you didn't get that or if my (light-hearted) sarcasm didn't come through. I know sarcasm doesn't gel with with typed, unspoken script - especially with an American audience so used to the obvious humour and step-by-step puns of shows like Everyone Loves Raymond.

What exactly I would have to be bitter about is beyond me.

If anything you should be bitter after I whooped your ass in your ABIC game :P
NigeeBaby (100 D(G))

Sarg
Ouch........that cat has claws !!
What's wrong with 'Everyone Loves Raymond', we can't all be pythonesque in our humouric tastes. Don't forget the US audience loved 'The Office' which surprised me.
I realise this is a thread about snobs so I suppose you can get away with such comments.

p.s. Don't forget the rest of the world loved YMCA by the Village People, many still do :-)

Lol, you make good points Nigee. I love the term 'pythonesque humour tastes'! I'm going to have to work that one in to my essays some how!

Oh no. MM is back online. Now he's going to chastise for me being ignorant as well as bitter. "What? You don't even know why I'm calling you bitter? You ignorant, bitter gunboat snob."

Okokok. Plot Twist!

Just got this message from MM:

"Yeah, I was joking with you just now, and thought you were being funny, but someone PM'd me asking what your deal was, so then I was wondering if there was a deal... Sounds like there is not, I got no deal, so I think we're all good? I'm all good, and hope you are too, which I assume to be the case unless you say otherwise! :-)"
MadMarx (36299 D(G))

MadMarx (36299 D(G))

For the record, Jim doesn't even know I made this thread!! That said, it's for him to decide if he's accepting all applicants, or if there will be some criteria for a "quality gunboat game". So, I'm just going to list interested parties, you all can figure this out with Jim once he finds out what I'm up to.

I think you created Jim's account as an excuse to set up this thread.

As an excuse to call me and Barn3tt gunboat snobs.

As an excuse...to talk to me.

See what you can do when you are nice to people, MM?
I keep telling you that being nice is a much better way to get things done rather than just yelling at people about how you are "THE MAN" and that they should do what you say. :)

Why does the timer NOT REFLECT THE ACTUAL TIME LEFT?
I noticed in a live game yesterday that a couple of times I changed my moves and hit "save" when the clock still said 2 seconds or something like that, but I got the "game has moved on, please refresh" thingy.

What is up with that? Why not have the clock actually indicate how many seconds you have left to get in your moves. Sometimes that can make a difference in a live game.

Play By Carrier Pigeon
Abgemacht has given his blessing for a carrier pigeon variant wherein players communicate via carrier pigeons. Who's up for it? I have six little birdies just waiting to fly the coup with diplomatic intrigue! Just think of the metagaming possibility when you intercept someone else's bird!

Cheating
I'm butt-hurt and I want you too look at this game: gameID=85903

Germany and Russia are one and the same, because there is no reason to go relentlessly after someone, without gaining much or enough, exposing your entire back to the biggest power in the game, granting him the win.

Would whoever Turkey was in the Xtra Special Gunboat please stand up?
I mean, waiting a year and a half after everyone else votes cancel because Russia failed to show to add the decisive 6th vote, only when the board starts turning against you, is kind of weak sauce.

So, I was thinking, the one nice thing about the Cold War was that NASA got tons of money to just be awesome. People were excited about science and we developed a lot of cool technology. Why can't we have another Space Race? Surely China or India would be up for the challenge.
