Trolling or humor or both, Knavey is feeling pretty proud of himself right now.

All all bumping this thread does, is encourage him.

Bump.

Something tells me that he is younger brother, right?



Feinder -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/20/2007 10:31:00 PM)

Actually, believe it or not, he's the oldest of us (4 brothers, 1 sister).

Should make for some interesting WitP team games... [;)]



Feinder -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/20/2007 10:52:49 PM)

Knavey and I do have a team game going (I'm UK, Knavey USN, vs. two other players).  I think Knavey bought a copy of WitP for our middle-brother, but it made his head explode (and I don't think he plays it).

Knavey and I did have a UV game vs. each other way back when.  I remember we were on some road trip, Dave's wife was driving, and he and I would pass the laptop back-n-forth.  I don't even remember where the trip was to, but we had that lap-top wherever we went.  Dave's KB chased my CVs down towards the Hebrides, and we had our exchange with LBA on my side.  I think I lost Wasp and he lost Kaga.  But his airgroups were completely gutted, and the replacement rates are set in stone for UV, so basically had CVs with no planes.  He was on the defensive from that point on.

Nice! A multiplayer game without delay... [8D]

But Dave's wife must have been... thrilled? It's not hard to guess what she though: "Men!! Like kids, just bigger! [8|]"

[:D]



Williamb -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/20/2007 11:05:49 PM)

It proves that while I know some things about history and WWII I dont know everything. And that ultimately a game is just a game and nothing in this world is perfect.




Feinder -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/20/2007 11:25:38 PM)

Cool. I found the AAR for that old UV game we had. Hey Dave....

Phhtttt!

Knavey -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 12:58:09 AM)

Ugh...I must be getting old.  I barely remember those UV days.

Is this how selective memory loss works?[:D]

Joe, Knavey started these threads ages ago when the rest of us were regularly making whiny posts about how the "game is broken" due to unrealistic in-game results. It made us all take a second look at our complaints ...

If you were to create a poll, you'll probably find that most of the forum readers love his little scam...


Brad, thanks for the background info. But if integrity is going to be determined by popularity, the Clintons will be coming back to the White House.

Sounds like you're taking things way too seriously Joe.  My brother's posts aren't about integrity or popularity.  They are intended for the enjoyment of everyone on the board.  Let it go.

Joe D. -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 7:05:42 PM)

I'm not sure everyone enjoyed this as much as you did, and you're fraternal relationship disqualifies you from having an impartial opinion.

But judging by the quote at the top of your signature, I know you won't take my opinion too seriously.



bradfordkay -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 7:26:31 PM)

Issues, not personalities, gentlemen...



Knavey -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 7:30:45 PM)

Some interesting reading for those who need some history:

These "WitP" combat reports seemed to work much better than your last stunt, probably because you 'fessed-up to the truth before the posts went on for too long.

This argument doesn't hold water...I went over 30 posts on one, and 38 posts on another before I 'fessed-up". On this post, I was on post 22 when I called it. AND...someone threw the BS flag on the 2nd post!



Feinder -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 8:26:06 PM)

Dave, remember that time we went to watch the Bucs lose at the deisel bar, and Chip started running his mouth? I thought for sure we were gonna get into a scrap.  It was to the point that we were counting heads, "How many of them are there, I'll take one, Chip's a big dude, and is toasted, so can probably take two..."  And Thierry replied, "Hey I'm French.  We don't fight.  You guys can fight those red-knecks you want to.  I'm gonna pour ketchup on myself and hide under the table." (he really is French by the way).

The situation diffused when Chip's girlfriend made them go home.

Ah... good times.

Knavey -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 8:49:53 PM)

The Bucs lost?



Joe D. -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 9:02:41 PM)

I didn't understand your "confession" on the first page; it wasn't obvious to me and I had no idea what you were talking about. It wasn't til your brother spelled it out for me and someone posted an actual article that I finally "got it."

I think it's fair to say that not everyone is familiar w/your style of wit, but then again, that's what you're counting on.



Feinder -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/21/2007 9:05:53 PM)

Somehow the thread's title seems apropos at this point...?

JeffroK -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/22/2007 1:23:40 AM)

I reckon they are great posts, too much counting rivets here and not enough real life!!

Games/Simulations are poor at recreating real life, the amazing incidents get "averaged out"

Keep em coming Knavey.



Terminus -> RE: I am FINISHED...ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! (8/22/2007 1:25:36 AM)

Absolutely.

I agree.

Too often, it seems, we get too caught up with what we think "should or should not" happen and forget that, in real life, "anything" can happen.

Oh crap...no pressure now!  Going to have to let the hype die down.  I found a really good one for the next time I want to quit WitP!  [:D]

Going to have to do a few Trivia posts to let this one drop off the radar screen.

Do you guys live close together or use the Matrix forums to communicate? That's cool you guys both play WiTP!
I used to play Ultima Online side by side with my wife's cousin. Oh, did our wives have a lot of practice rolling their eyes! [:D]

"Relatively close enough for relatives".

Close enough.  I live in Land o Lakes, FL which is north of Tampa by about 40 minutes.  Dave lives in Valrico, which is about 30 minutes east of Tampa.  It’s about 45 minutes between us.  It’s close enough that’s it not a problem to get together, and far enough apart to not annoy each other (I wish my in-laws could grasp that concept).

But if see he’s lurking the forums (he doesn’t post as much as I do), I sometimes mix in OT stuff with my posts in his threads (obviously).

Dave played UO a lot.  Was somebody fairly important on Catskills, ran the Mage Tower there I think.  I didn’t play as much, I had dial-up at the time, and that tended to get you killed in PvP.  We played Asheron’s Call a lot as well.  Also WW2O (flight sim).  That was fun getting on team-speak with the rest of our squadron.  My wife actually thought it was cool to just listen to radio chatter from the other room.  We were an older bunch, and several of them were prior military, so there was good radio discipline.  She said it sounded like a real CIC (yes, my wife knows what a CIC is, I have oft walked by to find her watching “Dogfights” without me).

Made me giggle when I read that because of experiances with my wife. I've no doubt she has enough knowledge about the A1W/A4G and D2G reactor plants to step onboard and supervise bringing the steam plant online.

God love them for what they put up with when we are gone. I've always wondered why the engine chooses to drop out of the car as soon as we pass over the horizon.[:@]
