YOSHIO'S PROFILE

Just gonna take the time to say that I love the Detective Conan avatar (is an unapolagetic DC fanboy)

Also, Yoshio, stop yes-manning CK. Come up with your own (coherent) arguments plz.

I basically tried to do that in the beginning of the thread but CK is making the argument much better than I could and it is aggravating to me that people are dismissing his arguments based on some ad-homenim problem with some "condescending" attitude on his part or whatever, or pathetic little attempts to pick at it like the issue with his quoting from dictionary.com even though he already pointed out the problem with him doing this in his own post. His arguments are making perfect sense and what you see as "yes-manning" is basically a plea on my part to actually consider what he is saying and offer up a valid counter argument instead of trying to avoid and dismiss it. Your posts make me wonder if you have any response to him at all quite honestly. maybe if you came up with your own arguments instead of complaining about the people not "coming up with thier own arguments" or not arguing in the manner or with the attitude you want them to you could get a yes-man of your own.

This thread has become pretty bad and I just can't take it seriously anymore. If it doesn't shape up, it is getting blammed.

Boy, do I agree with you on this. Alot of posts in this thread are clearly showing signs of members being very frusterated at other members and that always spells alot of trouble on the horizon. I personally am feeling like I'm losing my patience and I'm getting that feeling from several other people as well. Some people might accuse you of trying to run away from CK's arguments if you put an end to this thread, but I say take one for the team and do it anyway if this keeps on the way it is. Because this thing is really getting ridiculous

Even though I admit to being put off by cursing, I would encourage people to do what is appropriate or natural for them to tell their story.

Now this is somthing we can all agree on. If more people who are uncomforatable with swearing in these games were arguing thier position the way Valle is, instead of posting like Brandon did, or Kef is still doing, then there'd be less frustration in this thread and we could actually have a productive discussion on the matter.

I actually found out about Settlers of Catan after doing a search on it after I saw your profile (went there to send you a message concerning Hellion) I thought you made it up!

so yeah, its an homage to my favorite area of my favorite RM game I guess

I loved Catan's varied geography and look and thought it'd make a great location for a full game so I painstakingly made a dead ringer of it in VX, with a few minor edits to accomodate the demands of the loacations I had already cooked up

Its possible that it is indeed Catan thousands of years before the events of Hero's Realm but the game never addresses this

real men have blocky maps.
