From The Bunker

    Ahh.. so many interesting things have been going on since I have returned to the IAAPA, I just don't know where to start. We have a newly elected Club Government (that looks suspiciously like the previous Club Government), the Club financial ledgers have been unlocked and posted on the Government page, and there are continued rumors that the new server will soon be up. Nobody seems to be more excited about the New Server than TELINTEL, who could not contain his joy when he posted:

TELINTEL "WOW WOW WOW WOW. THE NEW SERVER SOON TO BE IMPLEMENTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA WOOO HOOO"

Down boy, down! It's so easy to please some people.

SS: lets hope that there is reason for this celebration


We also had the return of WrecIt aka Rotcefed who provided us with quite a few gems on the message boards.

Rotcefed "So what the hell is my little tirate about?"

Hooked on Phonics has worked for 44% of IAAPA members

WrecIt "I am about as abrasive as 80 grit sand paper but maybe somthing can come from it.

Perhaps somEthing can come from it… but egads, could it be this?

Rotcefed "Dave I love you"

Hmm.. perhaps we will hear if Starchild returns these feelings in the next Bunker. Welcome back WrecIt!

SS: so far so good he is now none as the non WrecIT

Let's see how Hess is doing today…

Hess44 "I get up this morning (it's Saturday here in southern Africa) to find that my golden retriever knocked over the trash can and scattered it around the yard, my cat bit through the milk carton that I'd left out the night before, getting milk all over the kitchen.

Jeremiah, my security guard, had set off the alarm last night at 3am by leaning a metal rod against the electric fence on top of the wall around my house, waking me up and not allowing me to get back to sleep. I turn on the PC to find that ArAmesh just took Berlin (I'm Axis in that game)."

Good grief, that sucks that you lost Berlin…

Let's see how some of the other folks in the Club are doing, shall we?

TELINTEL "It was a Sunday afternoon with Grandma. We were watching reruns of the Golden Girls. That was nice"

Yes, how nice…

ShenFung "You know the old adage about "when it rains"?

I've been sitting here for a week, with nothing but time on my hands waiting for people to move.

Just watch...now that I'm way in over my head with six games (quiet Einstein) everybody's going to be moving like cheetahs and on the same friggin day.

Where's my umbrella?

I hate it when I lose my umbrella… Speaking of Einstein…

Einstein "I have 22 games going right now, all with real boards and pieces."

OK Einstein, but when you buy a Cat I'll really be impressed…

Now for something completely different. It's amazing what confessions you can find hidden away in the message boards…

MrChaos "Logs...Aren't those the things I don't submit anymore?"

Usually, only the winner of the game submits the game log for credit MrChaos . . .

PSUSigEp "I'm a very simple person in lots of respects"

Oh come on now PSU, don't be too hard on yourself…

BlackDogMIB "Today's your lucky day! I just happen to have one agnolagement left, and it is yours."

Woooo Hooo! You don't find agnolagements being handed out very often…

And to finish off my review of the wonderful gems of IAAPA life that can be found in the message boards, I provide these uplifting posts…

Micwil "We are fully aware of how cold it gets here in the winter, so shut the hell up. Just spend your money and get the hell out of here or we'll kick your ass."

Alrighty. Sounds like a good time to be had at this years IAAPA Convention. Thanks for the update on Canada Mr. Micwil. I am booking my ticket right now…  and…

BlackWatch "If you've got some time to write your rants, then use it to help out - and start becoming part of the solution instead of part of the problem. How's that for a rant??"

Good clean entry, medium difficulty, I rate it a 6 out of 10…

And finally, to make everyone feel better about themselves, I provide you with a little insight into the soul of the notorious ShenFung.

ShenFung "I read strategies, I think about stragtegies, I (presumably) attempt to execute strategies...all for naught. I'm tired of being beat up, kicked around, trounced, and used as a punching bag; for what? Only to sink lower in ratings than shoe leather.

Crimminies! It can't all be the Hud SZ rule. What? Is it the IQ? I thought about buying a Risk game and challenging fourth graders at the play ground. But then what would I do with all them nifty boats and planes? (They don't float in the tub.) ARRRRG! I can't take it anymore…"

Cheer up ShenFung, last check on the ratings you were still 1 point above Shoe Leather

SS: read ShenFung gets revenge into days comic section

So ends the return of The Bunker. I encourage all club members to visit the message boards and chatroom more often, you never know what kind of gems you might find..

Respectfully,

~V~
