loki, the preivious HMW admin threatened me with bannings for asking questions about the Signature rules.

what OS has done with the mods is very clever, all 3 mods are of the most vociferous faction, which is the most likely to grumble when things start to smell, so having a high number of mods on their faction ensure's there's gonna be very little grumbling about it not being fair on the cons, secondly he's taken 2 of the RDD's leaders and made them mods, pretty much silencing the clans grumblings (because the clan doesn't want to get either of them in trouble) and clan loyalty will ensure obediance to those 2 mods, aslong as both RDD mods can hold their position in the Adhocracy that is the RDD. and the third mod is pretty well venerated anyway.

Yeah, what OS did was clever, he chose people based on their strengths and records, definitely not on their loyalties.

Utility Guys (Jacks of all Trades): Caelus/Crazyfists

Official Tournaments and Games: Psychout/Jeep?

Change Requests and Troubleshooting: Mogwai Prime

In-game Resource Management: Burn

We all know how much time and effort Psychout and JP have put into tournaments (with the help of others), I even told OS if they need help i'll throw my hat in because I have that experience as well.

Caelus and Crazyfists have obviously earnt the respect of OS and other players and have already been proving themselves as capable of handling numerous tasks.

The Mog is definitely proving himself as a beta tester, he's easily proven himself capable of sorting things out.

And I have a decade of accounting experience coupled with an extensive knowledge and feel for the game. Trust me, I can deal with any HMW Economic Crisis.

But I most certaintly don't see OS' choices based on factions or other loyalties, you're reading into it too much.

Sometimes the most obvious answer is in fact the correct answer. Is this one of those times? Only time will tell.

Could use a few more "Change" and "Yes We Can" in that speech to really sell it to the community.

nah, too American for me.

I can't help but think of a quote made by former Treasurer (and later Prime Minister) Paul Keating from the 80's.

"This is the recession we had to have".

War is the answer to every economic crisis, look for one in your neighborhood soon!

Not agianst that at all, Once we are out of Iraq lets go waste some weak country, some where warm and not likely to put up much of a scrap. 2 days of fighting several months of sun bathing.

Cuba is good this time of the year...

Cuba is very (VERY) closely allied with a country whose military capabilities are surprisingly strong - Canada.
Yeah, that's right, the country that wears the US like shoes gets its luxury tobacco and fresh fruit, as well as its celebrity pallbearers, by special arrangment with Cuba.

Oh, and, just remember what happened the last time you tried to invade Cuba too.

The Germans got there first and left their towls on all the beach chairs?

Sun Dec 14, 2008 12:57 pm

actually Christopher Columbus landed on the island of Cuba in 1492 as a rest stop but did not explore it. Then in 1511, the Spanish conquistador Deigo Velazquez landed on the island to explore it and discovered the Guanajatabeyes tribe already lived on the island, and they migrated from South America to the island.

but enough of that.

As I said before, your patronising attitude is NOT appreciated.

I offered you some advice, we have a tried and tested system around here of challenging people. You post the mission link, the factions it's available to, the time remaining, and when it was necessary, the levels it's available to. It's handy so people don't rush off looking for missions that may be closed or not even available to them.

It was just some advice, that was all. But you have to keep on with this attitude. People here are TRYING to welcome you into the community but it seems you're going out of your way to piss them off.

Any particular reason WHY you seem to be doing that?

ok for one, my intention is not TO anger anyone...as I seem too have angered you though, and I do apologize for that Burn, i did it with the intention of it all being in good fun. ok?

thats the only reason i started posting.

cuz i am a goof 8-}

and i do mess around with everyone and anyone i meet and i thought you guys would understand that?

as for the record i have not insulted anyone here, but yet have joked around.

again I apologize to you bro, i can understand the misconception.

i thought u making fun of me meant we were on the same boat, however that is not the way it seems.

Looks like attitude finally lost to willpower.

Congratulations. You're barely mounting a comeback and you're in the lead. Can you keep it up? I hope so. Because for once fighting you lot isn't boring.

Yes well done guys, you're bragging about a statistic generated by a function that isn't working properly because it doesn't incorporate the Beast factions. ;;)

Tue Dec 16, 2008 2:59 am

Actually that's even better! It's pure Autobots whupping Decepticons!
:twisted:

Working properly or not, it sure beats waking up to a 150 mission deficit everyday. 8-}

I have to admit though, some of the familiar top cons haven't been in missions lately, like Waaaghlord and hiroki1998 (off the top of my head).

neither have the bots, Ive gained 50k on Hoistimus after I passed dreadwing. That's another couple of top-players showing signs of yule-tide hmw weariness.
