ddickinson: Good morning, Hyper! And everyone else. :-)

How are you today? I hope you had a nice Christmas Day?

CarrionCrow: Good morning. =) Didn't eat to excess, didn't drink that much either, and in the process of helping to wipe out the spam.
How's your day going?
[...]
I'm fine, finally managed to digest all the yummy food my brother's wife cooked yesterday. :-)
I didn't really drink much, but given that I'm merely a social drinker on the light side anyway, and that I hadn't had a drop in many months thanks to health issues, even the few glasses of champaign and wine I had were too much for me, and did not help with the digesting part either. :-)

As for New Year's resolutions - never do any, I just make decisions to do things differently or try new things, but I don't wait for the end of the year to make those decisions.

AgentBirdnest: Good morning everyone.
The Square Enix promo looks very nice. The forums... not so much.
I can finally take my hat off. It is very liberating.

[...]
Morning Agent!

Why did you take your hat off? The holiday season doesn't really end until Jan 6, at least where I'm from. :-)

adaliabooks: Yeah, I've started things loads of times but always lost the drive or interest. Bit more committed this time so hopefully will get it finished.

Yeah, I will be asking advice when required :)
Maybe try setting yourself targets and share them on this thread. Then we can all offer help and support to keep you at it. Don't be too hard with the targets though, remember it can take a while to make a game. But I'm sure we would all love to help offer support and encouragement.

It was too itchy.
I may have taken my hat off, but Bumberluppins is still celebrating ;-)

I'm glad you had a good drunken time :-). I don't drink much anymore, just some wine or champagne on special occasions. I'm the same with New Years resolutions, though I do set some simple ones that I'm interested in doing, but never important things.

Maybe this year you could be resolute to stop picking on me, and maybe accept a gift now and then ;-).

Well if no one minds me cluttering up this place with my random stuff I probably will. I did post the pictures of my hex map when I got it working a while ago, of course I can't post pictures at the moment due to the forum bug.

I'm not great at planning so I tend to do it on the fly, so now I can display a map I need to figure out what else the map needs to do, and how to do it. Things like locations of cities and armies, or what resources are there.

I didn't get drunk, have never been in my entire life, not even during my University years. I just got a bit of heavy eyes and kind of sleepy, especially after eating all the delicious food that was served. :-)

Funny, I could suggest the same for you, but by the ones you've already made, apparently you're not interested in doing any of the two. ;-)
And no, this is will not get you to dumb Fist Puncher on me. ;-P

I take it the blues swept up a little since then. How were _we_ helping, downrating them?

Sadly, it was not the Call Girls type of spam, so nth missed.

And good morning!

Nah, no blues about. We deleted them by marking them as spam (they get auto deleted if enough spam reports are filed)

Seriously? So if a group of people reported this thread as spam, it would just vanish?

I used to know this but how do you report a thread as spam?

Down rep the post, and then the report spam button appears where the rep buttons were.
