Friday, thy name is GAMES!!

Have no fear, euphemism or no, that information remains classified.  It's for the well being of marriages everywhere.  I don't need you guys showing up at my front door to whoop my a$$ when your old ladies give you crap about, "How come YOU don't do that?!?!?!"

LMAO well done MD

Well - that is great news MD - I am pleased for you both (and Mrs.B sends her best wishes)

Thank you, sir.  It's good to see I am not the only I amuse :)

[MetalDog]

Thanks, bob, to you and Mrs. B.  I'll see to it you both get an invite to the wedding :)

Hey MD,
Great news, congrats!
Great news about her being a gamer too. That always helps. My wife plays mostly card games and kicks my ass at scrabble. She's all good with my new gaming man cave... So long as I get my chores done!   8)

Mrs.B beats me at Scrabble, Backgammon and 'Magic the Gathering'.

Good news MD! Is this a 'Getting ready for the right time to pop the question' situation or a 'domicile merger'?

The situation is actually a bit complicated, but, a reaffirmation of what we already felt was the direction we were taking prompted me to write, "(future) Mrs."  The question has not been popped, but a, "Yes," is assured.

Congrats MD!  I hope the future holds so much happiness for you that ecstasy would seem like depression!

Edit: Er, I guess that could be misread.  I hope you're really happy, basically. ;)

[MetalDog]

Thanks, Huw.  Nothing like a common language to divide us, is there?  ;)

Ahh that clears it up but makes me no less happy for you MD!

[Arctic Blast]

Congratulations, MD!

Gaming...uhhh...had a bit of time today to try out Marvel Heroes. Seems decent enough that I'll play it some more at some point.

Even without her frying pan skills, she's obviously a keeper.  ;)

Starting to lose interest in my Europe Game as Rome in Civ 5. Although it's been a real competitive game, it's no doubt going to last past the 9th and I'll never finish it. I'll probably bide my time with The Pit or something.

Story so far:-

Ass handed to me in Endless Space with my galalctic sidekick Huw

Ass handed to me by 'Easy' AI on Wargame:ALB whilst i figure out a few things

Downloading SII:TW FOTS - Bob made me - and at £7 on sale it couldnt be missed - it can wait til the vanilla campaign is done though

edit - downloading it now from GG but it appears to be over writing the SII TW files and not installing a new game, i thought FOTS was a stand alone - either GG have associated the wrong game with their activation key or im just been impatient - ill know in 2 hours

[MetalDog]

Thanks again to all the fellas for your good wishes.  I told the (future) Mrs. that we have been blessed with good vibes from all over England, Canada and the United States.  She was duly impressed :)

As for gaming, all i have accomplished is giving myself something ELSE to see through to the end: a Civ IV BTS AAR.  Thanks for those who spoke and said they were following and thanks for those who are following silently.  Hope all of you enjoy my (inevitable) demise ;)

I have read some feedback that says the DLC Disharmony makes the AI unbearably hard.  I saw that it is on sale for $4.99 but there are some that state it is not worth it for now and are going back to the classic.
