With all of this said, no one has yet to explain point farming to me. Is it profitable? Is it legal? If you do it will you be on Cops next year being dragged out of bed in your underwear?

I have lots of questions and no answers. Someone please explain!

Thank you Bzerk for the PM explanation of point farming. It also breaks my heart that you are so hurt about my fake GOG account. That couldn't have had less to do with you, but just like this time, when I addressed (my friend who always disagrees with me, yet still is my friend) Wig and you decided that your name was Wig, you have chosen to make it about you. That's gotta get tiring.

I'm not gonna engage you through PM. Sorry. I prefer to keep it right here out in the open where nothing is left to misinterpret.

I guess my biggest disappointment is that point farming sounds neither fun nor profitable. My hopes were so high.

Heartbroken, your interpretation of emotionless words amazes me, then again this is so dazzling isn't it. My mistake was not looking at what was right in front of me(the difference in the gog name) and allowing myself to get drawn into the bs created by gog, not you. So I ask, who is making this about ones self here?

You entertain your words here and try to draw people into pointless arguments that go round and round. When simply, your perspective remains yours and everyone in between doesn't matter.

I love you too.

And I can pretty well assure you when I begin a post with "Wig," that it's not an attempt to get you to engage me. Go back to my post that you first answered if in doubt.

Dave, I couldn't agree more about our not needing another contentious "thing". That's why I'm lobbying for adhering to the missions as we all know them to be intended to be played.

Occam's Razor: all things being equal, the simplest hypothesis usually means quit bombing the f*cking hangars in a carrier game, jackass. They learned me that at school, just after I crushed another kid's chess king with a Louisville Slugger. Whaddya expect? Chess is a war game, the bat was there, I have no idea why they clapped me into therapy. He should've blocked me with a fire ax if he didn't like my strategy.

Ped, next time we're playing poker and I have a lousy run of luck? I'm stuffing you down the garbage disposal. If it's there that must mean I should use it. After all ,the object is to win. Who knew playing cards could be so cathartic?

Jeez, Wig, please send me the engrish version of your last paragraph...

I think what wig was politely trying to say is just don't bomb the dam hangers you butt head

Wig, I really need help interpreting these words. I mean, i know the words, but I cant understand what lies between them, i cant tell if you are blattering me or mocking me, if there is irony, anger or just jokes... Im serious (not kidding), please clarify that...

I was typing while you posted, so I didnt notice your opinion. Thanks.
Wig?...

Wig (not Bzerk), are we talking little mini bats and axes that came with the game, or real ones? Did the disposal come with the card table?

(Ok NOW I'm just arguing for giggles)

I love the way you type my name.

It's ok Ped. This is my interpretation, without specific language:

In the middle of a conversation, our speaker suddenly stands on his toes, throws his hands up, cocks his head sideways, and utters highly exaggerated examples, all to make his point that what was previously stated by the other speaker is as crazy as his own exaggerations.

Wig, do I have that right?

This could go downhill fast....

Why would it go downhill?

Of course you have it right, Manfred.

Ped, I was neither angry nor "blattering" you (did you mean "battering"? I certainly was not doing that!) nor anything but trying to take a goofy exchange and throw it into hyper-goofy mode, as Manfred has described.

My point was, is and will remain; just because something is available, that doesn't make it a good idea, or right, or appropriate, or considerate.

Somebody send me a PM and let me know who wins...I've stood on my toes, cocked my head sideways, uttered my highly exaggerated examples, and at least one reader got the point. Mission accomplished. I just hope it isn't a mission where someone else could throw my hands up for me, cock my head and utter highly exaggerated examples I would not have uttered myself. That would not be the mission I paid to be able to stand on my toes and enjoy.

Hey, hey, calm down, folks!

As I said, I just wanted to UNDERSTAND what Wig wrote (perhaps Bzerk and Darraxx dont know I speak Portuguese, and I am learning English by myself).

Just out of curiosity, I am not insisting on the main matter. Correct me if I am wrong:

After reading that many times on a row, I believe Wig used a metaphore of a poker player that uses some cards from a trash can that was below the table to win the game?

If so, It's all a matter of leting everyone know that THERE ARE extra cards, THERE ARE trash cans, and to win you should do extra-work on destroying enemy's trash can and avoid yours being destroyed... But case closed for me. I already understood Wig's point, and I am quite sure he understood my "lemonade" (thanks, Jacklpe) way to see and circumvent this situation. Both opinions wont change, so I am out.

Blergh! My English is now revolving my stomach...

Lol. In north France where i was born i used to play chess as well. Beautiful game. But Baseball is not popular here so we have the Belgian move.

The Belgian Move : when you are going to lose, you hold your head with your hand like if you were very tired. Then you pretend to sleep and you crush the game with your head, so you do not need a bat.

I'm not sure why there's an argument when we all can agree on one thing:

If someone asks nicely not to bomb the hangars, don't bomb the hangars. If you're alone or with others who couldn't care less, then feel free to bomb them.

Wig's point is as simple as that.

Darn you and your logic stuff. Why ya gotta make it so simple???

Of course I'm kidding. I'll go a step further and just advocate that everyone adheres to the golden rule while playing.

It's great sport to whine about the whiners though. And there are so many to whine about!!!

I believe fixing the hangar problem caused the 15 kills bug to return. I'm not sure, but I think this is worse...

OH VON

OH DAVY...

If everyone could see them, I would say game on. But that's not the case.

Hey, these are words that matters!

As I was away from game and forum from months, I was not (and still am not) aware of all details. And for what VonKopp said, looks like there IS a "REAL REASONABLE REASON" (sorry) for Zup to fix it. If what Kopp says is true, some players cant see the hangars, probably due to different versions and O.S.; if so, I entirely take back what I said.

Until now, my line of reasoning whas based on the fact that it is way easier, more practical and more harm-free if all players simply adapt (having fun with this new "version" of mission, on which we should simply have more than one or two points on the map to monitor) than simply tell others "don't do this and don't do that, because some of us don't like it, despite the game allows it". I really believed that, instead of obeying to particular tastes, we should simply open our minds, and, as said Jacklpe, make a lemonade from those fresh new lemons.

But now, if what VonKopp said is true (and I prefer to believe him), there is a PRACTICAL (and not based on personal preferences of this or that player) reason to ask Zup for an URGENT fix.

Oh, and I will take the oportunity to ask Zup for new (bug-free) missions, since these lemonade ones will, unfortunately, have an end soonn... Well, at least I had some fun while it lasted...


Edit: and what is this "15 kills bug" about?
