JFD's The World According to Modders

[AW Arcaeca]

Another shipment of quotes:

Spoiler :

"If you edit a game file, that's cheating. But if you make a new file and add it to the game database, that's modding."
- PrimoXanthous

"Not the whole continent. Unsubscribed. Down-voted. 0/10. Wouldn't play again."
- JFD (commenting on the Shoshone buff from Civ V Traits Balance GoldPrime++)

"It's just to keep as many African cities out of Europe as possible...
Did that sound bad...
That sounded bad... "
- JFD

"Did you mean:
economy iguana exterminate antelope jacques Cousteau "
- TPangolin

"#BePrepared"
- TPangolin

"[Color scheme] 2 is a bit less in-your-face and it doesn't scream "I'm a toothpaste" right away."
- janboruta

"As much fun as body parts."
- bane_

"More like Assyria high on caffeine while meditating, I think, if you can imagine that."
- AgressiveWimp

"New community project, Fix JFD's Terrible civs Community Patch. What the hell does JFD stand for?"
- Firebug
(And in response...)
"Janboruta Frustration Device."
- janboruta

Now I'm tired of finding everyone's quotes for them.

 

[DoctorMcGann]

The problem with Natan is that there's far too much to choose from.

 

[Scapegrace]

Make your own! Just flail at your keyboard with your fists and/or head. It's also how I make my DoM speeches. =]

 

[Hoop Thrower]

So now I started wondering, will Whoward's civilization feature music from the Portsmouth Sinfonia?

Well, it does now

There was that time when I said that warhammer is a mod based on a medieval gun....

"I intend on doing an Ireland; honouring my Irish ancestry, blah, blah, blah."
- JFD

...which reminds me of; what is the next Finland I should make, like for honoring my Finnish ancestry, Finnish parents, Finnish citizenship, Finnish home, love for Finnish nature, Finnish saunas, Finnish politicians...?

Spoiler :

Hypereon - Greater Fenno-Nordic Union (Excessive patriotism)

Diplomatic penalty with all civilizations except Hypereon's Finlands. 0.1% chance of yielding a Great Work of Art for every Wine and Coffee the civilization has.

"As far as I am concerned you could do Bir Tawil in any shape or way and I would still play it."
- COF

Still true.

 

[AW Arcaeca]

Why didn't I think of doing Bir Tawil for April Fool's Day?
But hey, that's an idea for some other year... maybe...

How do you manage to make that link?

War... Medieval?
Hammer... Gun?

"You used to release 2 civs each week?"

Want to know the process? It's very simple; simply execute the simply simple algorithm A, simply:

[42314.70] 1) Find a random thread that has many posts.
[42314.70] 2) Pick a random page.
[42314.70] 3) Scroll through and find something funny.
[42314.70] 4) Repeat steps 2 - 3 several times.
[42314.70] 5) Repeat steps 1 - 4 until you get really tired of looking for quotes.
[42316.68] 6) Stop executing Algorithm A.
[42316.68] 7) Why are you still executing this?
[42316.68] 8) Terminate the algorithm! How many times must you be told?!?
[42316.68] 9) No!
[42316.68] 10) Stop!
[42320.12] 11) Desist! Do not execute this algorithm further!
[42320.12] 12) I swear, if you don't stop right now...

[Gyra Solune]

This is kind of the most amazing thread.

 

[Firebug]

I think i recently said

"Lua hurts my brain"
- Firebug

But it's not unique or quote worthy. so we could probably change it to

"Lua hurts my brain"
- Everyone ever at some point

This has turned into the Civfanatics quotes thread, while miraculously being still on topic. Though honestly, the Civfanatics quotes thread should also be a thing.
