Mr. Temba is dead!

[Phoenix]

And I have risen from the ashes!

This is my new login. I like it much better. Mr. Temba was the guy that had that great kick ass webpage and spent all of his life making scenarios. Well, that ain't me no more. So Mr. Temba is dead! Phoenix is here! Woohoo!

MR. T was the old initials....

[reismark]

You're joking, right??

My question:
Did the RedFront virus kill the original MrTemba?

[St Leo]

If Mr. Temba is dead, can I claim that I made Charlemagne? j/k:-)

Phoenix, what nice name! I know a nice song about Phoenix! You won't believe (or understand it), but I kissed that bird only two weeks ago...
Here it is:

(melody is about like "Ode to Joy" (the civ-song ) but a bit different)
Phoenix shöner Gottervogel
Vogel aus der Altertum
Wir betreten mit entzücken
Himmlicher dein Heiligtum
Deine Zauber bindet wieder
Was die Arbeit streng gezeilt
Die Studenten werden Brüder
Wo der sanften Flügel weilt

[Stefan Härtel]

Well, the text is partially taken from the first verse of Friedrich Schiller's "Ode an die Freude", from which the text for the famous song came. It goes like this:
Fruede schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Wir betreten Feuertrunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum
Deine Zeuber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt
Alle Menschen werden Brüder
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt

Although I love this song, I painfully learned the text at school
Phoenix, yes that's cool, but are you only calling yourself so in the forum, or do you combine that name with everything you have to do with Civ2?

En ingles por favor!

Damnit!

Well, now I've got to get something off my chest. The first time I saw the name "Mr. Temba", I thought that the guy with the name was a 60 something year-old guy who ran around in a Hawaiien (strange word...) shirt collecting stamps. Although that opinion has been dramatically changed...it's still a really funny picture in my head.

Haven't seen me here for awhile!

And temba rolls off the toungue (stupid spelling..) a lot easier thatn Phoenix.

[St Leo]

First One:
Phoenix of shoener Gottervogel bird from that antiquity we entered with entzuecken Himmlicher your Heiligtum your charms binds again which the work strictly gezeilt the students becomes brothers where the gentle wings stays


Second One:
Fruede of beautiful God sparks daughter from Elysium we enter Feuertrunken Himmli, your Heiligtum your Zeuber bind again which the mode all humans become strictly divided brothers where your gentle wing stay

Captain Nemo,

Sadly I haven't played that anymore since I posted that casualty report in that one thread. I really don't have a lot of time at my comptuer .

St. Leo,

Go ahead! Now you can answer all the little whiners complaining about historical accuracy! You can try to tell little wierdos who just want to brag that they know about some obscure event why you left it out! Be my guest! Please!

Stefan,

Just on the forums. All those scenarios were still made by "Mr. Temba." I might make one too, one of these days.

Fast_Eddie,

I was just wondering where you were. Remember the good old days at CivNation? Sigh....

And I am very happy to see all of the musical influence my name has!

[Kull]

I must say that Mr. Temba was one of my favorite logins. Although he continues to exist in the form of Phoenix, Mr. Temba will be missed.

[valmont]

StLeo: you just ran the text through one of those crappy automatic translators. Totally freaking lame!!!

Joy, bright spark of divinity,
Daughter of Elysium,
Fire-inspired we tread
Thy sanctuary.
Thy magic power re-unites
All that custom has divided:
All men become brothers
Under the sway of thy gentle wings.

As Stefan observes, the text is from Schiller's poem. The "famous song" is the choral finale of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.

[Narck]

This new login is nice

I updated your info in the age FAQ...

[Zulu Elephant]

Hey Temba, Fast Eddie and Zulu Elephant in one thread

The likes of this hasn't been seen since the golden years of Civnation but 3 months ago (seems like longer)

Is your email still the same temba?
(Like the name by the way)

A minutes silence for civnation...

silence....

Zulu! I haven't talked to you forever!!!!!!! we gotta talk man!!! Now that civnation is down...hmmm...maybe we should find some new forums to crash into...

Sorry I haven't been posting more, but aol kicked me off cos my account was hacked into four times. Just to send some stupid porno! Another two weeks and then I'll be able to be on here a lot more.

Til then, email me at either
prozzak9@aol.com
or
sifl169046@juno.com

I'll probably see the email at prozzak before the other one.

[Phoenix]

Zulus here too! Yes! Now the party is really starting! No, my new email is kyle@marijuana.com thats what markos was talking about.

Thanks, Narck!

To explain my strange post a bit. Phoenix is the name of our Student Society. A big bird hangs in the middle of the building (built in 1873) and is to be kissed by all first years. The song i posted is the song of our Society which is to be sung when the Bestuur comes in. There's also a song for the Senate ("Io vivat") and another student song.

Phoenix,
Now that Mr. Temba is dead, can it be revealed the origin of his name?

[Overdrive]

Right on!

[Mao]

OK Mr. T, I'm playing your Charlemagne scenario. A knight appears in the northeast, but I can't use it. The coordinates don't match up with the "real" world map. Is there a reason for this or just a glitch?

[St Leo]

Now that civnation is down...hmmm...maybe we should find some new forums to crash into...

Cough, cough, cough.:-)

St. Leo,

Sidgames sucks.

Mao,

Yes, I just found that today too! The last part of events.txt should be like this....

@IF
RandomTurn
Denominator=60
@THEN
CreateUnit
Unit=Knight
Owner=Franks
Veteran=Yes
HomeCity=London
Locations
31,75
EndLocations
@ENDIF

Instead of 38,75

Everyone Else,

I just thought Temba was a cool name.

Thank you!

Leo! Shashy kicked me off of sidgames after 2 posts! He also flamed me for no reason at all! No way in hell will I ever support him!

Anyway...I found forums like the ones at Civnation! It's at a site called www.trouttunes.com
This place is cool. It's a site for a radio show that only plays local music here in Omaha (which is, by the, the third best local scene in the U.S.). I know the DJ too. He's my friend's dad, and I bet I could get him to make an off-topic forum for us. Besides, they need the hits .

[Gothmog]

Phoenix
Thank you as well.
