I am cursed!
OK, I am all for coincidences and all, BUT!

Last night I proposed a massive bombardment of Hunt Valley utilizing back yard catapults and the unlimited range bombardment bug (hold down *b*). THEN those clever folks at Firaxis decide to release a patch which will no doubt nullify our unlimited range. And they release that very patch on the very day of the proposed bombardment! Coincidence? I think NOT.

Futhermore, I'll bet they use the proposed bombardment as their excuse to deflect any criticism of an unfinished patch! Ha! I knew they would. *Yeah but, we didn't want to get pelted with cabbages!* Hurumph! I've seen right through them.

However, that is not all! No, not by any long-shot is that all. It gets better. Or worse, depending on your point of view.

OK. So I'm reading yet another verrrry long thread where some critic posts a full 90 lines. Then some critic of critics posts a 180 line reply, which, you guessed it, quotes most of the first 90 lines. Then the critic replies, then the critic of critics...

So, in a moment of desperation, I appeal to the patron saint of the critics. I cry *Lib, why hast thou forsaken us?* I'm thinking to myself, at least that guy knows the elegance of brevity. These guys could use a lesson or two.

Pooof. Faster than you can say Lazerus, the arch critic returns to dwell once more among us.

So last night I formulate the master plan for all of us to besiege Firaxis and have our way with them. Pooof! Tactic made obselete. And on that very same night, I invoke the spirit of a long lost mythical figure, and Pooof! There he is.

Am I cursed? Ever heard of the sad man who got everything he wished for, but with a twist?

Salve
and welcome back Lib.

[...shrug...]

The whole universe is nothing more than a quantum fart after all.

(Thanks for the welcome.)

I really cannot comment on that as I am under surveillance by the CIA and the Illuminati, and could be abducted at any mo

Hmmm. I know how it feels.

With me it's Ninjas. Can't see them in the dark.

Ouch. I'd like to see thinner anal probes in the next patch.

Well, Lib. Some people determine their own fate.

hey notyoueither, why don't you come up with a strategy for multiplayer and scenarios, and see if your curse still works.
