What are you doing while the Forum is down?

Okay, you have some free time on your hands while the CSW Forum is being restored. The long hours are ticking away and you've been online to check "just in case" several times but no luck so far. So what are you doing to fill your time?

I read all that I could find about Case Blue. Still can't find a scenario size list. Three battles of Kharkov? Are they one map?

I outlined what I could see of AH's marketing strategy on a what happened to wargaming thread. Can't see the modern equivalent. Rennaisance talk over there. I'll believe it when MMP honors the 8 issues I had left to run on my "Operations" subscription.

Had a V-8. Love that junk. Ate five Ritz crackers.

Took my dog out and checked the temperature "in the shade." Ahk!

Wondered how bad the Consim site is damaged.

No, not GenCon, GlennCon - the local alternative con (fundraiser for ACS to boot) for those of us not able to attend. And doing the same for the Gaming Hoopla as well.; ▶ Reply to This

I was spening time on a forum about platoon level gaming but it has grown sileint. I made me own to pick up the conversations there but those free forum things grow slow. I alsayw have my won rules and projects to pick away it as well. To many irons in the fire at once now that think about it.; ▶ Reply to This

Of course I would have done that even if the forum was up.; ▶ Reply to This

Reading rules and starting to solo MedWar Sicily (looks good so far). And I hardly ever solo unless it's with Vassal or CB.

Filing away 8-9 months worth of bill receipts

Cut out the counters for Red Storm Over the Reich for next weekend's gaming session

Watch some of the Cardinal's game on the tube

Took a short nap

Jogged a half mile further than usual

Did some updates on the laptop I've never gotten around to

And you are right: checking in here several times 'just in case'

The Most Shameless Thieves in the World

You have to be an absolute piece of crap, with no respect for history or decency, to pull off this crime: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8423827.stm My only joy is that the five semi-humans who committed the crime were caught, along with what t…

No they're not, not Super Bowl winners. Some members of the defense need a major attitude adjustment too, especially about standards and excuses.

The Steelers used an onside kick today, and almost snatched defeat from the jaws of mediocrity too. It's a big reason why Roethlisberger could throw for 500 yards and still need the last play of the game to win, by one point.

Hold the line

Hold the line by Worthington games. A GREAT simple revolutionary war game, similar to Command and Colors, but uses Action Points instead of cards. You can move any unit you want with your points. (Similar to Conflict of heroes)
