You know, this is ALMOST as funny as Vulcan waxing his nipples. The shouts of a troll drowned out by utter nonsense. Oh wait, it was the troll shouting the utter nonsense? Ne'er mind.

I can't believe I missed this shit. The greatest thread since HM was around is 4 pages long before I see it. All because my wife was sitting here playing around on pogo.com.

My wife is now banned from the computer, because I am the dictator of my home, I can't miss an opportunity like this again.

Bad prose aside I do agree with Druez on 2 points:

1. It was wrong of Heavy to publicly lay blame on .400 without talking to them privately first. He was baited into it I agree but it still showed poor ethics.

If he contacts .400, presents his problem, and they still don't respond, then fine...take it to the boards.

2. In the spirit of this board it was irresponsible of SD to let it go on.

I know this should have been a dead issue 3 or 4 days ago when it came up but Heavy himself gave the previous HTML post as reference when someone asked if anyone had tried TPB. He did this on his own boards here:

http://www.fbbgames.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3501

And here is a timeline you can't refute SkyDog... this post was 3 days after it was supposedly settled here at FOFC.

I play all of the games from all of these companies and personally I like the tempo of the FBB games over that of the 2 basketball games from .400.

Heavy has answered every question that I have asked and supports his product like a madman, I just think in this situation he let a little fear get in the way of his professional judgement.

As for skippy...I don't know. He presented his first post in a very supportive and respectful manner and the good ol' boys of this board started baiting him like crazy. If he was that big of a problem in the past SkyDog, I say you should have just let him stay in the penalty box. I think you knew exactly how your partners here on FOFC were going to take him being back and you used it for a little amusement.

I don't know how he lasted as long as he did with all the flame-baiting going on. Hell one of the reponses to him was this:

Slap, as for your #2 point, that thread started pretty late at night, most likely after ol' SkyDog had gone to bed. You can't blame him for not being up all hours of the night to close those threads.

As for baiting mrskippy, I don't really see any of that going on. As for "Ain't it great to have mrskippy back?" (or something like that) that I said, it wasn't meant to be taken as a flame-bait (Although to an "outsider", I guess I can see how it might look like that.) My comment was just a joke about how mrskippy had a tendency to make lengthy posts arguing points that no one was debating.

In the HTML thread, he kept going on and on and on about the legality of it, when no one was saying .400 did anything illegal. (One person asked, everyone said you can't copyright a webpage layout.). Subby's comment too was a joke directed at how mrskippy tended to make several long-winded posts that could be summed up in 2 sentances. Again, to someone who doesn't know the history, it looks like flame-baiting.

If those two things counted as flame-baiting, then there's a HELL of a lot of flame-baiting going on at FOFC (since those kinds of comments are made by everyone to everyone else on here.) Most of the regulars just take it with a laugh and playfully fired back.

Anyway, that's the defense of my comment. The people who know the history probably got it, but for those who don't, it probably did seem like "flame-baiting".

After skimming the first page of the HTML page...everyone seems like they treated mrskippy fine. I don't see anyone flaming him. It seems to have started on page 2 when RPI said something mrskippy didn't agree with and it escolated (sp?) from there.

That was vintage mrskippy, though. Whenever someone didn't agree with him, he would just keep pressing and pressing and pressing until he finally just went too far. It's happened SO MANY times in the past. It may seem like a small thing, but if SD didn't ban him, it would have been a pretty bad day or two of mrskippy acting like a total jackass and trolling the threads. That's the cycle, and I think SD did the right thing to stop the cycle before it hit its peak again.

Anyway...that's enough of that. Let's get back to the circle jerk.

Oh I almost forgot. Bucc ends up letting Marmel fly the Millenium Falcon while he and Fritz lead a small sneak attack on Endor. Ardent then fires the shots that destroy the new Death Star, but only after Troy telling everyone it's a trap.

I'll give you that one. Poor judgement although the thread did also contain other issues people were having with the game. What I didn't like was someone who seems close to Gary on the .400 boards spamming both my board and the JSB board with posts about TPB. Had this been a regular on the board it wouldn't have been a big deal but this person made an account for the purpose of advertising TPB. Rather than deal with it I deleted the thread when the html thing came out. Someone made another thread about it and I linked to the thread.

Now having messed around with TPB tonight, I noticed some things that seemed off. I passed them on to Arlie while we were discussing this thread. Here were my thoughts on the game: The presentation is nice but confusing. I know I'm not the only one that finds it difficult to even make a team human controlled. I can see a number of issues with the stats generated by the game. I like to think you should have some control over the style of play your team uses but I don't see it. I'm sure plenty of people will like it but it isn't the game for me. I'm biased though...lol.
