OK. Here goes.
ACooper: What are you on about?
Lib: Workers are tedious!
ACooper: Dude !?
Lib: I'm waiting for a response from Firaxis!
ACooper: Have you been playing Civ3 again?
Lib: Not until I get a response from Firaxis! Oh, wait, they just announced a patch...
OK. I know it blows, but it's the first attempt. Can anyone do better?

Ming: Hey, you wanna hear a joke?
Yin: Sure.
Ming: How long does it take 5 Civ3 workers to walk 1 mile side-by-side?
Yin: ...shrugs a bit disappointed...Forever. Civ3 workers aren't able to move together, even with patch 1.17f and the 'j' command.
...long pause, both look at each other, blinking vacantly...
Ming: ...a bit peeved...Ruin another of my jokes like that and You're Toast! Case Closed!
...Ming stares down Yin. Yin pretends to be doing the dishes...

Neither wise nor timerous posters mess with Ming the Merciless.
Ruin his joke... Your toast!

BTW. Workers work great with 1.17f and the j command. Been using it quite a bit. Must be careful not to use it if they are stacked with another worker group however.

I actually thought you were joking (it *is* a joke thread, after all).  I have EU2 now awaiting my undivided attention, but I haven't gone to the boards for a while, so I missed your thread there until now.
I'm convinced you will absolutely love the game! And if my brief praise here for EU helped a few people (especially you) take the plunge, I'll be happy if not a bit in fear of the wrath of a few people who are losing some sleep.

Minuteman- Didn't you reprimand me yesterday for baiting Encomium/Troyens?
BTW- That was very funny.

I didn't reprimand you (geez..who am I, , Sergeant Apolyton or someone?  ).
I checked, and you were right about Zouave.
Besides, when I saw this thread, I couldn't resist firing one last shot across his bow....well, maybe not the VERY last.

So, it was you the whole time, eh?
How many identities do you have here at apolyton and at civfanatics?
If by changing your name to Zouave after posting that message as "Anti-Encomium" you hope to make me look foolish, you're sadly mistaken.
It only shows the extent to which your entire existence revolves around these fora.
Very, very sad indeed!

I received a message from Ming asking me to change my name. I am not Encomium, I am a reincarnation here to make amends for my sins against Sid so that I might go to heaven.  Really, I am not Encomium. Sorry, I wasn't trying to make you look foolish.

Oops! Sorry guys.
I think I've been hanging around these forums too long....startin' to have a kooky effect on my brain  (What shall we call this new disease? Encomium Syndrome, Apolyton-Schizoid-paranoia?)
Better get back to my studies before I loose what's left of my mind.

Don't worry Minuteman... we understand
I'm sure anytime you are having a conversation with somebody, and their name suddenly changes... one might get confused
