Will we reach 1800 members in the next day or so ?

But........Huzzah !!  ...Another real person has taken us up to 1800 members !! 

Cheers - Phil

Hang on though. There have been some snide insinuations that Duckman is not a real person. If this is so, then we're back at 1799, and we need to take the Marengo Prize away from whoever's just joined and give it to the next person to join.

D_guy and jimduncanuck (?) come in with some wrong-side-of-the-pond wholesomeness. One can almost scent the wide open spaces in their work. I do think D_guy once posted the word "gee" which makes my point exactly.

Which side of the pond do you think I come from?

We just took a head count over here and Jim didn't answer when his name was called. Not absolute proof since we were short about 217 but a good bet he is not from here. Hope this helps clear things up!

Yah! 1800 (unless fsn makes a formal request for a re-count in which case I know some folks in Florida can help with that).

I'll be over in 31 days but am only staying for 28 days this time.

Jim, I think some people are under the impression that you are a Canuk rather than a Scot.

That's just not cricket!


"Ey....."

Or baseball!

[Tawa]

Not Hockey either....

I believe my member number was/is 1800! This is probably the most helpful and resourceful forum or website re wargaming that I have encountered.

[fsn]

I'd look around a bit more if I were you. 

The forum does seem to jump around between the better parts of the History Channel, Discovery, Red Hot Girls and Tots TV - with a dash of the Open University in the mix.   

I think anyone with a membership number 1800-1815 should be forced to take the name of a Napoleonic Battle. From now on, you, CarlLeyland, should be known as "Marengo".

You say that like it's a bad thing!

Just as well you're not into cookery too or he might wind up as Chicken Marengo!

Besides, 1800 - he should be Hyksos or Troy VI!

[d_Guy]

Since CE/BCE can't be resolved there is another ominous portend concerning Carl (Marengo/Hyksos):
6+6+6 x 1000!  I propose "Dark Lord" or "He who shall not be named".

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

That name is already taken round here... 

[d_Guy]

That name is already taken round here... 

Quite so! Apologies! Had not thought this through!

We are kind of proving fsn's point here aren't we

Well I confess to having watched a couple of Biblical Prophesy programs on the Discovery channel - but I wouldn't call that hard proof.

[jimduncanuk]

What's in a name?

If you think Discovery Channel is bad you want to look at YouTube (that is not a recommendation).
