Once a CivFanatic, always...

[Pedro]

I feel like coming back from the dead. After being absent for about five or six months I'm back. I must say that I was startled by the huge number of members that this forum seems to have attracted in the past time. Must be a Civ3 thing I guess. I've installed it on my computer about three days ago and I haven't had a lot of rest since then I knew it!!
I actually didn't have a choice, because the game was given to me as a present by... Matrix. He visited our student appartment party the other night and said I had to try it. I should never have listened.

So what's up at Civfanatics? Does anybody remember me or anything or have all the old members moved to the realms of Apolyton? Just reply below so that I can see who's still alive and who's not!

Anyway, now that I've become addicted again I guess I'll be spending more time at this forum again. I've got some catching up to do, cause my postcount ranks at about #40. Well, that's not so terribly bad actually! Just a little spam should do the trick.

(just kidding)

Greets, pedro

I remember you, though you might not remember me. I was never the rabid poster, and I took a couple months off sometimes after you left. What do you think of the new avatar system?

P.S. Your smiley title isn't working

 

[TrailblazingScot]

Yeah...you said you would do me a sig file picture...how is it looking? you been hard at work on it every second you have been away?

 

[BlueMonday]

Welcome back, Flashmaster. Have you designed the civ 3 version of your oh-so-beloved civ 2 flash game?

 

[Cunobelin Of Hippo]

Hey Pedro How's it going?

Now don't go strangling Matrix any time soon The GOTMers would go into Civil Disorder!

 

[Alcibiaties of Athenae]

Hey Pedro, been quite awhile!

Some of us are still lurking about.

 

[Matrix]

Ah, Pedro!! The post I've been waiting for.

Good to hear you enjoy Civ3. Yeah, your party was fun! Pity I didn't know that many people (which was also part of the reason I went to bed so early), but I did have a good time. Your sister is lovely! And I'm looking forward to the pictures that are taken. However, you do have a reputation concerning showing pictures...

Anyway, good to see you virtual as well again. You're the only one of CivFanatics I know in person, so indeed: stay a CivFanatic.

Update:

• vladmir_illych_lenin makes one post per month.
• Kira is scared off by some drewling guys who find her even more beautiful than she actually is.
• weimar_republic = Pellaken
• Off-Topic is a prison. (Just kidding)

Six months? Weren't you saying 2 months ago that you're still in here?

Remember? Az asked (haven't seem HIM a while) that where were you, and you answered.

 

[Zwelgje]

Juize is right! (how many times has that been said on this forum? )
You've only been gone 3 months Pedro (last post September 22), ah well, welcome back! (Welcome back?? I'm a new member how can I welcome someone back whom I hadn't met before :crazyeyes )

 

[drake]

Wuddup pedro.....got any good design jobs lately?

 

[Pedro]

Ok, leave the calculations up to Matrix, ok? Anyway, the post in september was just a little intermezzo to anounce the photograph I took of Matrix & me, which still hasn't been printed.
Ok it may or may not have been six months, but it seemed like an eternity to me.. By the way: I don't want to start a new generation of 'coming back' topics. This would just make me feel a spammer. I'll make it up by posting that picture soon. Does anyone know HOW I can do this, cause angelfire seems to mess up my pictures if I post them here! Example:

Stellar Convertor went nova and disappered in a flash of unhealthy radiation
Border patrol had a tantrum when informed of a rule change and went walk about, to be reincanated as Iroquois & Goody Hut.
Sun Tzu, the senior member other than Thunderfall went on a rampage and had his repsonsibilities restructured.
I stupidly answered the knock at the door and was drafted as moderator and do not get to flame posters anymore.
Alcibiates of Athenae personally butchered anyone who made an insensitive remark about Sept 11.
Blue Monday could not control his evil alter ego and retired to integrate his personality.
Stormerne realize how really really old he was and curtailed his moderator activities.
Thunderfall had date with 4 Victoria's Secrete supermodels.
Juize grew a whisker.
Scorch was banned 327 times.
Membership tripled.
The flashman was banned twice at poly, maybe more counting DLs.

Has BlueMonday really gone? And has Weimar really changed names?

Can't tell whether you are joking or not.

Weimar had started a new acct and he's now Pellaken.

BM had retired fr being the Civ3 mod and is now appearing sporadically.

They aren't joking especially the bit about Scorch...

Hey Pedro, welcome back. Time seems compressed, or something, when dealing with this forum. A few days away feels like a month, a week or two feels like forever. Maybe that's the nature of web communities. Anyway, great to see you around again. Enjoy your addiction and the ruination of your life The CivForce is too strong to ever break away.

EDIT: I guess my own presence here has faded considerably, since I didn't even rate a note in Lefty's list

Either :
A. There has been no significant change in your status here, and no splashy event centered on you
or
B. I did not want to mention this , but...

Leowind, while on a church pick-nick and hike in the foot hills of the Cascade Mtns, found a lost tribe of Amazon Native Americans who had not seen a man for 7 years. The resulting muscle strain has curtailed his posting volume.
