Ed Kolis and SmartMass?

[PvK]

Anyone know anything about what might've become of Ed Kolis or SmartMass? Their emails both started bouncing and have done so for quite a while now.

[Captain Kwok]

Yeah, I don't think I've seen Ed absent from the Space Empires gang for this long before...

[CovertJaguar]

He stopped doing his turns for the Invasion Mod pbw game a while back.

He said he's been retrofitting his PC with Linux, but I don't think it's going that very well..... or perhaps his internet connection has gone kablooie.

I doubt. Linux has no promblems with networking. And then our inet connection goes down we try to let someone know about it.
Most likely it's some RL issues.

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

Could be, I've no experience whatsoever with Linux. All I know is that a few weeks back, he sent me a PM in which he said he'd been refitting his computer with linux and that it took some time in response to a question of mine about his long time offline.

I say we consider them both MIA. Perhaps they were traveling on a worldship on a celebratory voyage celebrating their victory or something, when they were sucked into another dimension or something. Who knows.

I suspect we would have seen the worldship. Unless it was cloaked. In which case, I would ask what manner of creature Ed et al really are...

I've got a cloaked worldship...Sometimes... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Lets search all dimensions for them!

[AMF]

Dude,

If I could search all dimensions, do you think I'd waste time looking for Ed? I'd go find that winning lottery ticket. And THEN find ed.

Hmmm, good idea.

[Atrocities]

Do a search for his last post and see what he said. Maybe there is a clue their.

Good god. He's been deleted from the entire space-time continuum! It's paradoxical that we even remember him given this rending and reweaving time itself...but even now, I find my recollection of him fading...can anyone even remember what he looked like anymore...It's like that movie with Julianne Moore ("the forgotten"?)...

Impossible, we still remember him....... OMG we have all been cought in the distortion wake!

[Captain Kwok]

That's not his account he uses - it's under Ed Kolis and has 2756 posts. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Well, another extremely well supported and highly consequential theory...shot down in flames by some smart aleck with actual data. yeesh.

Thomas Kuhn eat yer heart out!

Sorry.

Going home now.

[Slick]

I appologize profusely, but every single time I scan the posts list, my brain sees "Smartass" in this title until I read it again.

[narf poit chez BOOM]

Uh, me too. Maybe, uh, something could be done to, uh, make that less likely?

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

Actual data can completely obliterate most of the most beautiful hypotheseses (is that correct?), speculations and theories.....

edit: One more thing.....

Trooper has gone to high heaven.
