Attention

klesh · February 4, 2001, 19:39

This is something I hoped would not have to happen.

Unfortunately, things have taken a turn for the worse in my real life. There are things happening that demand my full attention at this time. These are heavy issues indeed. Therefore I must announce that I will be leaving the Civ community for awhile untill things get straightened out.

I am very sorry to have to say this, particularly for those of you whos scenarios I am playtesting. I cannot continue with those assignments at this time. I also cannot continue with the excellent 2194PBEM series. I have been delaying for a few days to try to save my situation, but I cannot afford the time now to make those oh-so important moves. I have sent the savegame and my password to Xin Yu. Good luck my friend.

Fort those of you who don't know me or could care less, please refrain from flaming and spamming a heartfelt thread, ok?

When I get this all sorted out, I hope to come back to one of the best communities I've found on the net.

Regards,
FMK

Field Marshal Klesh: Don't worry. I have the saved file and we will be able to continue the game. Best luck for you in your life.

The Art of War salutes such a great general for submitting the very first strategy to the website.

We give you a full editor's and general's salute, and will remember your generous ideas and contributions.

Klesh, I hope things work out for you. Real life is horrible, and I have experienced it first-hand all of you may know.

Good luck.

God speed, my friend.

Godspeed Field Marshall, I hope to see you back here again some day.
I have been very grateful for your input on my new scenario and the fun we have had with that 2194 Days of War game... But those are just games and real life... is REAL.
Let me know if I can help in any way.

Sad to hear. Wish the best to you, FMK.
If I can help you any way, let me know.
Hope that you will return soon.

Leaving FMK? Sorry dude. But remember...I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!!! (*well...kinda sorta maybe...*) You know where I live at least. But bah, hope you get everything sorted.

Things have a way of working themselves out FMK. Don't worry - things will look up - and very soon now, we'll see you at these forums again

Best of luck to you.

welcome back!!

I´ll never understand why people `say that they won´t come back anymore, if you don´t have enought time to post don´t do it, but you will always find an hour to see how is the people in apolyton doing.

glad to see that you are back

Welcome back...

As for the popups, you can just leave 'em in the back. The idiot who made them put them behind the active window, so you never get to see them!

klesh · March 16, 2001, 01:05

Well guys, things are certainly not back to "normal" in my life, but I feel it is 'bout time that I try to return to what feels comfortable. I have had alot of time to myself to realize just what is real in this world, and what is important to me. And though it may sound silly, you guys and the community here really give me alot of joy. I have missed this place.

So, now that I'm back in full effect, I gotta say...WTF is up with these popups etc!?! Quite annoying indeed. The state of the internet these days I suppose...

So what ever happened in 2194PBEM #2? I trust that Xin was able to drive the hated Allies to ther netherquadrents of the globe

I just wanted to say thank you to the folks that posted here... in times of need it is good to have people give you a little support. I look forward to being an active SLeaguer again.

Thanks, it's good to be back

Welcome back, Fieldmarshal!
I'm glad to hear from you again. Life is never "normal" always changing always challenging. I hope that you have come to a decent solution to the trouble that took you away?
The 2194 days game was halted when one of our participants misplaced his password so I never even saw how Xin responded to my counter-offensive.
Should we start another round? I am ready

Bout time...now you can give Matt a ride from the 'burbs
