When?

I think there is an upside to a slow-down in the release of patches and all the bug-hunting. Hopefully this has allowed the beta-testers to test the _Play_ of the game. After all, MWiF is a just slightly different game than WiF. Things like how the new scale in the Pacific is working out, the increased flexibility with divisions, and a few other small tweaks are part of the play-testing I hope.

I can't recall how far along NetPlay has made it, but I hope at least the beta-testers are testing the game as actual opponents against each other by emailing or dropboxing the game file back and forth.

No posts from Shannon for some weeks - is everything OK? Are we going to get an update?

Steve is around we hear from him in the beta forums. His report is usually sent out around the 1st week of each month.

Perspective Department: My son was about a year, a year and a half, when Harry announced CWIF, IIRC. He's a senior in high school now.

Yes and CWiF was released a long time ago. Maybe not the greatest software but it did come out. If you want it ADG sells it at their website for 20$.

We distinguish CWiF from MWiF as they are 2 different computer games although MWiF is based on the original code.

Back in the hospital!

More marvels of modern medicine!

Endoscopic-retrograde-coangio-pancreoscopy.

That is what they say today, that Dr. Lim will do to me.

If everything goes alright, my bile duct will again flow free.

Endoscopic-retrograde-coangio-pancreoscopy.

On October 31, I had the cataract removed in my left eye. That all went well according to the surgeon in my follow up visit the nex day. But 2 days later I had stomach pains (unrelated) and made a visit to the Emergency Room. After alot of tests the doctors concluded my gall bladder is kaput.

The little ditty above is the procedure they will use to go through my mouth down the throat into my small intestine and back up into the bile duct where they expect to find a gall stone that they will remove. If that goes well then a second surgical procedure will happen later this afternoon to remove the gall bladder and I should, theoretically be discharged tomorrow and able to work a couple days after that.

This makes 5 surgeries in 15 months after 60 years of none. I blame my parents for not getting the extended warranty.

I'll give a full monthly report when I'm able to type myself rather than dictate to my loving wife.

Get well soon!

No surgeries [&:] not even to get your tonsils removed [&:]

Now that's funny.

I hope the last part are your words. I can see my wife adding the 'loving wife' as she typed.

Anyways, best of luck for a speedy recovery. You'll be ready for limbo and Hackey Sack in no time. Or whatever it is that Islanders do.

Nice maracas Steve.

Of course, they couldn't just say ERCP : you would have thought "embedded Rich Client Platform" (which "basically enables the same application model used on desktop machines to be used on devices") and start designing a new version of MWiF to use on smartphones... [;)]

That is why they simply said Endoscopic-retrograde-coangio-pancreoscopy.

We wish you a speedy and complete recovery. And thanks to your wife !

I guess you're actually getting the warranty working.
Hopefully, after some repairs, you'll get back for another 60 years.

Cheers!

Another small set back. You aren't lucky at all with your health Steve...

Get well soon.

Steve, get well. Nothing sucks more than being sick, especially when one ailment is conquered only to have another impose itself from out of the blue. Hawaiian beaches are restorative, spend more time on one with a good book.
