This game has not yet been rated. Who are they kidding. Adult.

Where's the leaisure suit. I remember getting that game from my brother. How many years ago was the original out. I think I was playing it on a 286

That's where I played it... in 5th grade. I scammed it off a friend who got it from a friend...you know how it goes. I'm looking forward to this one.

At the time it was really funny and new. In todays hi-tech games I wonder how it will age.

Well, sounds like the competition is over. Doesn't matter to me either way. I shall rejoin the main empire asap.

Congrats to all sides in this battle. We shall now reunite and refocus after gaining renewed strength and vision during these days of friendly civil war. The Guardians shall remain stronger then ever!

Larry rules!! I remember the "point and grope" system on a 386.

I'm glad to see/hear that the GvE might be coming to an end. It will be good to be "one" again. (I hope I didn't rain on anyone's parade with my concerns about the competition--although it seems that similar opinions have been expressed to some extent by others.)

Congrats to Theoden on Top 15, Naqmir on #9, numerous Guardians on page changes, and everyone else that I'm certain I'm missing.

And congrats to GoD! You guys sure gave us something to shoot for!

And I'll drop a Boom before I say goodnight. I am now within 13k of the Top 50. 2 more games should do it. Vision of Tomorrow, I'm heading your way!

Hey MD! Guess who's breathing down your neck?

You didn't think you could lose me that easily did you?

Well, it was a hoot at the begining. The day the Guardians of Doom were created was one of the busiest we had on the Claw in at least two months. I got almost no work done that day. It had the entire Meta talking about us, too. Ah, well. All good things must come to an end.

I will rejoin the Good Guardians now so I'm not holding up anything when the appointed time comes. If it turns out that we will continue, I can always rejoin GoD.

Go GoD
Go Guardians of all colors

...and with that, GROSS regains second place in the meta, GoD sinks to third.

The Daily special




And ED... I hope I didn't take too big a chunk out as you were leaving. Heal up soon.

By the way... I notice there's no moose heads hanging on the walls in the Claw. That's what gave me away right? You're just not used to moose heads on the wall.

I knew that was it. I'm sure if you ask the Capt'n he'd be willing to part with one or two. I mean after all just how many heads can you fit on four walls?

Morning Guardians

Anyone around today?

                          
#13463  by Citizen Lothmorg the Black - 6/15/2004 9:15:19 AM

Here. Busy.
I'll pop in when I get a chance.

Hey MD! Guess who's breathing down your neck? You didn't think you could lose me that easily did you?


Hey, Bromoser! Took me a minute to recognize you (in my rear-view mirror!).

I've been moving slow due to some imminent work deadlines (and as ED will testify on my behalf, sometimes that commute from my home work desk to the beer in the regrigerator can be a real hassle ), so come on up and have a look at me in your rear-view mirror! (I'm still just as ugly, but it's a smaller sort of ugly!)

                          
#13465  by Citizen Genghis Hank - 6/15/2004 9:55:01 AM

Hey MD!

I know there's a "Objects in your mirror" statement that goes to that, but I'm not sure what

Turns out the best part of a moose is the upper front shoulder, the part that is mistakenly called the "moose butt" (just like on a pig). Remove the bone, slather it in Sam's Special Mustard Sauce overnight, then liberally cover it with a dry rub and slow-cook it for 8-10 hours--until it begins to fall apart when you try to move it around on the grill. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes then "pull it" (shredding it with fingers or forks), mix with a vinegar-based BBQ sauce, throw it onto some cheap, white flufffy buns, top with cole slaw and some kickin' hot sauce, and you've got the classic Pulled Moose BBQ Sandwich!

Now, there's a rumor going around that the Guardians have ceased this practice since becoming good friends with a certain free-range-snacking moose. I won't confirm or deny this, but I will say that you should think twice before biting into our delectable BBQ sandwiches at our annual All-Guardians Summer BBQ!

Morning, GH! Last Saturday was my Dad's birthday, and one of my twins picked out a card for him that showed the Grim Reaper in the rear-view mirror, with the inside card reading, "Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear." Fortunately, Dad has a good sense of humor!

(I tried to steer them towards the one that said, "Grandpa, thanks for all the good advice you give us... cause you know we don't listen to that kid of yours." However, I lost out--by a good margin--to the Grim Reaper!)

Not true! Been eating "moose kebab" for 5 days. Very nice too. Apparently, the meat they use only comes from roadkill (there are a lot of Volvos in Sweden).

Hi all, I'm back, very tired - late flight, 3 hour drive home Monday, then 2*2 hour drive to get kids, not enough sleep, work today, another gig tonight. Will try and catch up on what's been going on tomorrow, and hopefully get a game or 4 in.

Welcome back, Magnum! You were missed! You didn't say whether or not you had a great time. Hope you did!

Your concern for my health is touching.


Fellow Guardians you may or not be aware that I was trapped and attacked by Da Moose on the CSF thread yesterday.

A portion of my left cheek butt was taken. I have consulted my Lawyers and am pursuing legal action for bodily injury. Unfortunately there is some question if you can sue someone who is already dead, for actions committed when they are dead.

MD can you check with your Mrs. D for her opinion, what I am getting from my team is that, said Moose, cannot be named in any action do to the fact he is neither a person, nor alive.


                          
#13472  by Citizen Major Dallas - 6/15/2004 2:38:37 PM

Done. Damoose is, in fact, an "entity" and as such is subject to prosecution to the fullest extent of the law. The question of whether he is alive or dead is moot, as his estate becomes culpable in the event of his demise. His 'passing' does not excuse him from his legal responsibilities. Freeze all of his assets immediately, pending outcome of your legal actions. (An appropriate message to send him at this time would be, "All your assets are belong to us.")

Finally, doesn't he understand, Better Ed, than Dead!

You know, we have these cross thingies on our shields. Shouldn't that give us some protection from undead?
