You know, what's really funny is...I did indeed log on here to see if this game was worth getting, saw that 150 post mess that reminded me of an old game of A & Y (what we used to call Dungeons & Dragons back in college...Argument & Yelling), and said 'Yegods!&nbsp; This must be the worst game ever made for the PC!'.&nbsp; Heh ok, well maybe not exactly that, but close enough.&nbsp; Anyway, thank you for making my day despite the previous lunacy!

I've seen EiA games kill more friendships than any other game out there...

Life is great here in St. Helena.....

All those who say "Unplayable!' can just relax and stop pretending......the truth is they'll never be satisfied.

Just lean back in the grass here in the sun....so.........unsatisfied.........

Well I say B*ll*cks to those who dislike this game. If you're not happy and likely never will be happy until this game is exactly like the board game, then go away and stop wasting your, and more to the point, our time.
&nbsp;
It's a great game in it's own right. Could it be better? Yes it could, but you could say that of almost any game invented my mankind.
&nbsp;
I'm enjoying myself in five PBEM games. It captures enough of the spirit of the orginal game to keep me very happy.

Ok, here I am. :)

To Ichirou989, so did you buy the game? Do you like it or not?

To DC, I don't see how me posting on this forum is wasting YOUR time, unless of couse you read it and then if it's a waste of time you are only wasting your OWN time.

That should be enough for now to get you guys going.

Good to have you here. i am not amongst the Unsatisfied, but I just want to see folks happy. it's real beautiful here in St. Helena.

I always wondered why Bony was so unhappy here. Give me a free villa in St. Helena for life at the expense of the British Taxpayer and I'd buy my own passage!

What are you doing on St. Helena?

Boney could have been a bit disappointed being on that little rock, when he had almost all of Europe under his boot...[8D]Well, maybe...[:'(]

I'm glad to have you here too. Both you and borner have come up with some good input for changes and for things that need to be fixed.
