Third day and counting: Yin26 doing a great effort to avoid posting at Apolyton

Firaxis doing great effort to held back new site release and plenty of info, screenshots, detailed animation, just in sake of helping Yin to win his bet.

Now MarkG can accuse you of every Dan M. late, too

Go Yin26, go! I'm with you.

Go Yin. Yin for 3 days I had nothing to do (summer vacation) and I resisted to not even look at the Apolyton site. So I know if you try real hard you can make it for one week to not post anything.

Requires real discipline. I can't manage for minutes doing that, let alone days. I make a really crap lurker, much to everyone's dismay

I don't reckon he will last...come on Yin, we will go easy on you if you give up, honest

Well you Provost are a real example of an Aployton addict

with 17 posts per day on average well for more than a year running.

man do you do anything else but spend time here??? I don't know how manytimes i did more than 17 posts per day. (Ok i am relativly new and off-topic doesn't count anymore...but still! )

I guess all those TV and newspapaer ads, have lost you to this place. If the whole world was like you (and a few others) Dan and Mark would be better off than Bill Gates

When Jupiter and Saturn are in line, and Mercury is in Gemini, chant 'Magaha' three times and down a pint of unicorn piss...surefire way to summon the spirit of Firaxis

You forgot to mention that you should be standing in a circle of candles!

Seriously though, Dan and Firaxis are busy working on 2 (!) games at the same time. So no time left to post here, unlike some other people...

Wasn't a Pentagon the right protection against evil?

With so many question, I can't forget the old quote (roughly translated in english):

"When God want to punish us He let our wishes happens"

May be Dan and Sid will answer... and we wouldn't like it!

I see a picture of Yin choking himself to divert his attention from Apolyton in my mind...

did any of you join firaxis mailing list and, just like me, received no updates?
any urban legends about the people who actually had their question posted in 'ask the civ team' section?

Hey Markg, can you find out for me how often I have posted since the beginning of June? I would just like to know. Sorry for being off topic but I think pretty much this whole thread is off topic.

Just a couple more days Yin. I have a question why are you going against your great prophecy you had about life. When you wrote that you weren't going to be posting much then about a month ago you started to post a ton again. Why did you stop your great new path?

Yeah, I remember signing up for that mailing list. I had forgotten all about it, because I have been sent precisely nothing thus far.

*tut*

It's now been one month since anything was posted on the firaxis website, and more than 6 weeks since anything about CivIII was posted.

just like mine, getting paid to post at apolyton. not much of a pay, but the 10MB connection/sec is pretty good .
CivIII in a Window would be crucial for my work-time net multiplayer experience

Why does everybody have a better job than I have? I have only 1 MB/sec!


Anyway, this was meant to be a Yin encouragement post but I changed the topic before I started even writing it . Good luck, Yin, I can't remember anymore what your posts were like .
