Markos can't join either club.
He, like our beloved "dubya" here in the US, is a uniter, not a divider.
He needs to work for bi-partisan cooperation amongst the rest of us.

The question then becomes will we all gravitate towards a happy median of realistic pessimism, or will it be pessimistic realism?
|
it's your pessimistic mind that can only think about pessimistic realism.
I think there's a good option for optimistic realism as well.
So far I lean towards optimistic realism,
Firaxis seems not to release civ3 in a hassle, and thus for that reason the game will be tweaked ways more and tested very good before release.
The release of Simgolf is really a good thing, since it'll provide Firaxis some good cash, and the more cash they have the more time they'll take to improve civ3.
In a realistic way my pro and contra arguments are:
 release date seems ok
Sid Golf will create cash to Firaxis
New diplo mode seems great
New culture seems to be great
animations look great so far
 road graphics look very bad
 We don't have much info about the AI
We don't have much info about MP

Wasn't meant to be an insult - just funny. But now that I think about it, I apologize Markos - comparing you to the prez was a horrible, horrible thing to do. And I will never, ever do it again.

Can I see a memberlist of the clubs some where?
