Is It Me Or Are There New People Here
That or I've missed some name changes.

If your new, introduce yourself to the gang and tell us about yourself..


I won't ask your political affiliation. I'll just ask if your more inclined to agree with Slowwhand or chegitz guevara

I think it's Civ 3 people that figured out Civ 3 sucks, and wandered over to get a glimpse of the wild people.

Guilty as charged. Brit (and I MEAN Brit, not English, Welsh etc), mid 30s disabled Civ nut with a liking for arguing the toss.

I don't know about agreeing with Sloww... I guess I sympathise with him... but then I sympathise with a lot of 'Polytonians with problems.

Chegitz? There's a guy that believes the hype... although he can be pretty compassionate at times.

Nice to meet your Sprayber. Put me down as a moderate who uses extreme means.

I'm a new person. Actually, I've been lurking for some time (with no malicious intent), but I didn't finally sign up until recently. I've made about 5 posts, maybe 6, or possibly 4 or 7. I don't know. I complained about RON graphics problems and mentioned the Aroostook war in OT. That's the extent of my participation thus far.

Sloww. I was trying to distance myself from those that believe the hype, ie Chegitz. Get my meaning?

Good question.

Or do you just have to have kvetched about OT posts not counting a certain number of times.

I'm here mostly for the "I'm with Stupid" threads.

What dismal scores I have.

Yah, what's new? I've been here for about two years, but my posting frequency has increased drastically in the last couple of weeks or months or somethings. I definitely used to be a lurker, and I also definitely used to post in areas that counted.

I'm new. I've made 40 posts since June 14 when I registered. I have posted mainly in OT and Freeciv with a few in Community. I drew this as my background.

My name is Dissident.

I'm fairly new. I've been posting for over 4 years now.

As for whether I agree with Che- well. Let's just say I live in the real world, and see how people really are. I don't live in some ideallistic fantasy land- though it would be nice if we could have a society like that, I don't believe it is possible.

I am relatively new in the OT, since I joined at about the same time you left for the army.

I am a French Communist

I guess if you came to the OT in the last 3 months or so. Basically since I've been a guest of Uncle Sam

Now that's the Sloww we all know and love..


Btw. Me using che and Sloww was in no way meant to disparage either. They are just the two examples that came to me when thinking of two opposites.
