Post by bo »

I would like to thank Steve personally for inviting me to his sisters house for lunch today, It was very enjoyable until his whole family started showing up and they did not want to talk MWIF. But we got almost 2 hours in chatting about the game. He showed me the maps I believe Cad 908 put together, amazing work he did, Everyone here will enjoy the seperate map.

Steve is a little laid back, warm and courteous, I am saying this even though he had to push the date back a little for me coming to his condo for a week because of some very extensive renovations, I think he said it will all right to come in the year 2023, Oh well! [:(]

He is hadsome, tall, beardless, energetic, well groomed and has a beautiful wife, hmmm well he does have a beautiful wife [;)]

I liked her very much, very warm lady, but a shade naive, She works hard to support the family and she thinks her husband works hard, the naivety part, he plays MWIF all day and tells her hes working, something wrong here.

Neilster you were right SANS! [&o]

Thanks again Steve it was enjoyable.

Playing WIF is hard work! Those counters aren't going to move themselves.

Those counters WILL move themselves when the AI is released ...

Sounds nice to chat about MWIF and not arguing. [:)]

If you like one way conversations [:D] Steve is like the horse with the blinders on, there is no right, there is no left, there is only straight ahead MWIF, and us gamers will reap the whirlwind from it, he is very very dedicated to World in flames and he will back the game forever. Hmmm forever, at my age that is a strange word. Oh well!

Mike then you are going to have one ticked off Kitty, [:(] my dog barks at animals on our TV screen drives us nuts [now you know why I act the way I do on the posts] if your cat is smart it will figure a way to annoy you while you looking at your monitor playing MWIF.

Sorta what I meant was my cat's ability to move cardboard WIF counters for me.... even without an AI. Silly Italians apparently invaded Sweden while I wasn't looking!

Tell us more about his wife and stop talking about cats ha :)

So, he is an actual person and not and a sophisticated holographic algorithm? Are you sure as the new context sensitive programs a very smart. You give them input and they deceive you into thinking they are real by telling you what you want to hear. For example, here's a typical conversation: Bo: So, what AAR should I do next? Steve: not sure, do you have any more of that scotch? Bo: Well yes, do you like it? Steve: Yes its very good, maybe a combined arms attack in Newfoundland. Bo: here, let me top that up for you. Steve: thanks, its very good.

The above is just an example, but they are very good [:D]

Not good, Excellent, did you tape us, damn that was pretty close [;)] I did pinch him at someones request but I did not smell him, anyway I know what pineapples smell like I was stationed in Hawaii for a year.

No scotch he was on his good behavior, a lot of his family was there. I had ice tea becaues they did not have any Budweiser. He was drinking a light green liquid, I think one of those health drinks. Steve told me what it was but I forgot. He is an actual person, his wife is lovely, very intelligent, a programmer in her own rights, and if I am not mistaken she can speak French and other languages, but extremely naive as all intelligent people are [:(] she thinks Steve is working for a living while he plays at games.

I requested a smell, and I would have paid one offensive chit for sure.

I am getting to know you Killzone and one thing is for sure from what everyone has told me, your too cheap to spend 15 build points on an offensive chit. [:(]

No wonder. Even cats knows that Sweden is a nice country with no defence worth mentioning.

Except the the elite First Ski Division.
