The Civ 5 C&C Off-Topic Thread

[calcul8or]

It's also funny because from the modding community... how many are from the US again?

...3 at best?

I never noticed that...

You can put on the "from the US" list, but since I haven't started my own thread no one has probably noticed.

 

[GPuzzle]

5, IIRC, are US. Uighur_Caesar's American, son of Cubans, NiaoMeow's closely related to folks from Taiwan IIRC, calcul8or, bouncymischa and shaglio round out the list. Add Canucks in and there's Neirai and regalman and that's about it.

Welcome to OT! By all means, make yourselves at home. Soon you shall be more interested in talking about Trump, feminism, racism, Islam, SJWs, Trump, economics, Clinton, the EU, racism in Trump's campaign, Russia and Ukraine, Communism, and of course Trump than you ever were in modding.

Oh dear, this is gonna be weirder than expected.

That said, our last two off-topic convos were age related and "two lions making another lion". If you expected high brow stuff, get out, save your children, women and children first, all that.

That might be a problem. We at CFC are intellectuals.

regalman's Canadian? Hmm, never realised that - I thought he was... well, IDK, not Canadian.

EDIT: I seem to remember I'm not the only Dane here as well.. Just can't recall who the other person is?

 

[JFD]

The greatest conquest in modding to this date, maybe only rivaled by Walmington-on-Sea as a real Civ.

The CL colonization of Reddit was pretty important.

He's not, but he's studying in Canadia.

On the bright side, there's no longer the trend for every thread to devolve into a treatise on why Abraham Lincoln was a horrible racist despot and the confederacy wasn't really so bad.

I believe LeeS and |dvh| are American as well.

 

[GPuzzle]

Oh, yeah, that makes up around 7-8...

Surprisingly little all things considered.

Indeed. TPang definitely had Deity status over there. (I wonder if reddit folks would even recognise the name Neirai?)

Edit: yeah that's right, I remember now. He was, understandably, really psyched about the scholarship.

We need a list!! Or actually, we don't really, but still..

 

[Hygro]

in a poll between downtown and radioactive monkey, who do you choose?

 

[GPuzzle]

Downtown.

Have you heard the good news of our lord and saviour TPangolin?

 

[Zack]

what number do you associate with "mahatma"

 

[Arakhor]

Downtown.

Is he seriously a meme outside OT as well??

what number do you associate with "mahatma"

Whatever number they give me in the cloakroom.

Spoiler sleazy pun :

Isn't that right, Mahatma Coat?

Also, the number of threads derailed by talk about Poland and early 20th century-style racialism has declined sharply since last July. We have...ways...of making this happen.

 

[Hoop Thrower]

Ain't Vicevirtuoso & Rawsasquatch from the United States too?

I'm almost 100% sure to be the only chilean. I know because I once got a PM from some other chilean guy in civfanatics and it was... awkward.

Are there even other people from South America other than you and Leugi? And Tarcisio.. Is he from Brazil or something? Can't recall..

 

[Klisz]

You're one of only five C&C people I can think of from your entire continent, and three of them are Brazilians so they barely count.

 

[GPuzzle]

Oh, yeah, right.

That said, it's not much compared to the surprisingly high number of people ON THE COMMONWEALTH.

[BRITANNIA RULE THE WAVES INTENSIFIES]

There's like, 3 Brazilian guys and I'm one of them, so that's nifty. DarthStarkiller and Tarcisiocm are also Brazilian, yeah. Then there's Leugi and Hoop.
