Sometimes Mrs Dixie makes me smile with her random and/or inappropriate comments.  There was a documentary on TV a few days ago, Little People, Big World, about "the little people, you know the midgety ones".  





"That's funnier than watching midgets run track!"

I'm just a bit concerned that I'll start a game with someone who turns out to be a sociopath, a la whatever he's calling himself this week. I figure that if I can get a game with a Threadster I know that I'm getting a socially maladjusted individual

Speaking of which, he/she/it is already looking for another game


You know, I've been seriously contemplating starting a GC with this individual. I would, of course, construct any victory conditions with careful attention to turn around time and game continuity. For example, if there was an interruption in the game cycle of more than two weeks, it would be automatically be interpreted as a victory for my side.

We could restart again if he / she / it wished-with the same 'poison pill' for disengaging. It would let me pad my CG victory totals and stitch up my rep a treat. Alright-not that last bit, but I could pad my numbers vis-a-vis my THREAD postings.


CB, I've thought exactly the same thing would be a blast. Then I always remember..... I actually value my time.

Hey! I resemble that remark!


At least with a Threadster, there's no pretending.

Take my opponents for example.

(And my team mate )

And the wackitron typing this post.

Who is, Faber?

Clearly we're not talking about Onime?

ETA: This cruel, predictable and unwarranted put-down was brought to you in honor of our missing THREAD brother, who is neglecting his THREAD duties something fierce.

Terminus - Is Eagle Day Bombing The Reich worth looking in to? 

Also, Dixie, is Cities XL pretty much like SimCity?


Yep, prettier but so far very similar in operation.



Hmm... I have since become bored with SimCity..wonder if I should try Cities.



My favorite city builder was the original Tropico. If one of your simcitizens ticks you off you can have him imprisoned or shot!

I thought Mrs Dixie had locked the front door when she went to work this morning, turns out she hadn't.  Also turns out Josh decided he wanted to go for a walk in his PJs
