_________________________________

however like asher says, there are all kinds of "famous" people here on apolyton

Don't worry korn- you'll be on the list when I update it next.
I was using an old december list of the top 110 and hadn't seen all the new posters.

[DarkCloud]

Not much to write about the zero posters, H Tower
It's not as if they did much

[David Floyd]

sure they did - they avoided getting sucked into this place

[H Tower]

we could always make up stories about them being never used DL's.

[begin article]

Apolyton(AP) MarkG's DL discovered! Shocking Secret Revealed!

After more than 30 years, it was discovered that MarkG had created a DL that he would pull out of the closet at a crucial time to alter the natural course of events at Apolyton. The DL, named young was never used, but even owning a DL is grounds for punishment at Apolyton. After a close examintion of the facts, Ming shook his head, sighed and permabanned young and then he sent the greek criminal to Mingapulco for a two week vacation. Using Markos as an example to other posters who would consider creating a DL. Ming ended his duty with a case closed

[end article]

[MikeH]

My real name isn't actually Mike Hunt... say it fast a few times, that was just a joke.

My real name, embarassingly enough, is Ormerod Michael Hod. I can't stand the name Ormerod so I go by Michael or Mike.

You should change the entry so that it has my real name as Mike Hod or if you really must O. Mike Hod.

You know that Mike Hunt is actually (modern) cockney rhyming slang?

Yes it is...

Have you given up trying to be subtle?

[Velociryx]

G'bye cruel world....

(Actually, I found the thread a terriffic read! Thanks for the interesting tidbits and history on some of the most prolific posters out there!)

[Lonestar]

What th'....... I'm not on there at all!


Me and Velociryx are going to go off and form our own, "Under-appreciated Posters" list, right Vel?


Hey, come back here!

[Keygen]

You have done some amazing work here DarkCloud
Congratulations! Keep the good work


Here is my info if you're interested:

Former Usernames: None. I still use my original handle.
Famous Titles and Occupations: None as far as I know.
Famous DL's?: None. Never attempted to create one.
Real Name: My first name is Constantine
Age Group: 27 in 6 days
Nationality: Greek
Lives: Greece, Athens
Registered: January 9th, 2000
Had/Has A Website: http://www.geocities.com/costas_ctp
Contribution to Apolyton: CtP PBEM Mod, CtP Recruitment Center, CtP-Multiplayer Cafe, Apolyton CtP League (on recruiting stage yet), Tau Ceti's interview in Apolyton Faces, converted Civ2 tips and hints word & text documents in html documents (still waiting Markos to post them ) and about to finish my greatest project in Apolyton the CtP-Multiplayer Info Center. Triggered the idea of "Forum Wars" (team PBEM games between ACS, ACOL & CGN).

Description:

Running some things in CtP-Multiplayer forum, helping people on several aspects there, organizing new PBEM games mostly for youngbloods.
Posting on OT once in awhile. Won the first CtP PBEM finished in Apolyton. Spend some time on Apolyton and I am involved in several CtP & SMAC/X PBEM games.
I like to beleive that people in the CtP-Multiplayer community trust me and I try to keep good relations with all but that is something only they can say if it's true

I also do (very) few posts in ACOL & CGN.

Currently (slowly) working with a group of CtP funs to create a Civ/Ctp related site, CivLeague and with Solver to create an Age of Empires site, Epochi.


BTW, Solver is from Latvia, not Greece

And I beleive that with this post I complete 3000 posts and I get the emperor status

[Velociryx]

Darn right, Lonestar! We didn't even get an honorable mention!

Let's just go off and for our OWN list!

-=Vel=-


('s a good list....interesting list...kinna looking forward to breaking into the top 100) cool!

Now it makes even less sense, you quote me and attach a comment, I query your comment and you say it was not directed to me and attach a perplexed smilie. Now you say it was diirected at me and attach a rolleye smilie.

Make up your mind.

Feel free to reply for the post count but I just thinking you are making it up as you go along and will leave it at that.

[Immortal Wombat]

Ok.

I quoted you to agree that it is strange how posting increases as a poster gets near a 'promotion'. Then I continued, with a comment to Gasmaske.

You quoted my agreement by asking if I'd given up being subtle, referring, I assume to spamming, and I assumed, to that particular post as a demonstration of a lack of subtlety.

So I replied again to point out my post was both a reply to you, and to Gasmaske, and was not, in fact spam.


So to clarify...

Have you given up trying to be subtle?

What do you mean? I don't spam at all, subtley or otherwise

[reismark]

reismark
Former Usernames: None
Famous DL's: None
Real Name: Known only to a select few
Age Group: 18-21
Nationality: Italian-American
Lives: New York City, USA
Registered: (before) 2-15-99
Had/Has A Website: http://www.civgaming.net
Contribution to Apolyton: ACS Picks the Winners/Fantasy Gaming

Description:
Reismark was the creator of the original series "ACS Picks The Winners" for football predictions. Now known as the "Lombardi Handicappers' League", it recently completed its third season of football and will soon begin its third season of predicting the NCAA men's basketball tournament. He was also the original mind behind fantasy sports on Apolyton through sandbox.com, though that pandemic has spread in recent years to other sites and to the control of his friend Imran Siddiqui.

In September 2000 he created the Civilization Gaming Network and sucked several Apolytoners away from Apolyton, though his intention was not to compete with but rather complement all Civilization sites. Site went under in May 2001 after host discontinued its hosting plan with only one week's notice, but resurfaced in October with the help of many throughout the Civilization community, thus partially achieving the site's original goal

Frequent hangouts are Apolyton & CGN, though he can be spotted from time to time on the Frontier & CFC. Likes include football, the Yankees, dropping 15-ton safes on posters in the Coffee Shop, the various seasons of Survivor, and Chris Jericho, professional wrestling's first ever undisputed champion and personal god to many.

76. Scouse Gits
Former Usernames: (none known)
Famous DL's?: (none known)
Real Name: SG[1]- Stu (University Lecturer - Information Systems) SG(2)- Ivor (Printer) SG{3}- Claire (School Brat)
Age Group: SG1- 50's SG2- 40-60 SG3- 16
Nationality: British
Lives: England
Registered: 11-24-99
Has A Website: The Scouse Gits' Civilization Site
Contribution to Apolyton: Scenarios, Civ II sections, founders of The Great Library

Description:
There are three Scouse Gits.
One, the original, SG1 is the father of SG3 and a good friend of SG2. SG1 is not a Civil War buff at all, but believes that those noble vessels so beloved to American hearts are not true Ironclads. That distinction belongs to the iron sheathed Ships of the Line that predate the Civil War river boats by about 50 years. He likes all things related to war and Civilization II.
SG2 is much like SG1, except his relation to SG1 is that of friend.
SG3 is known to Apolyton as SG1's quote:

brat daughter

(SG3- please do not be angered at me, that is a quote from your father in the Apolyton/Community section )
SG{3}'s a 16 year old named Claire

Currently SG3 is trying to petition for an avatar of her own, because she does not appreciate the ironclad that her father and SG2 use for their posts.

I first got to know the Scouse Gits in August 2000, where someone made a reference to there being three of them.
I did not confirm this until the threre SGs posted in a thread made by CornMaster in November 2000.

The Scouse Gits are British and live near Liverpool.

The above corrects most of the obvious errors and omissions...

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

£10 says the Scouse Gits share one body and some massive analyst's bills.
