Re: OT: Season 3 BSG

Hmmm, Don't think they are supporting any side, but did find a way to show that there are always two (or more) sides to any conflict. Some may want to complain about the "Analogies to Iraq" being...

Re: SE:V, I\'ll be honest

Re: Introduce yourself!! :-)

Ah, yes SE:IV, I'm sure that MOO2, or even Civ2 and Civ3 combined have less logged time than SE:IV on my computers over the years. Looks like Dom3 has chance to usurp the champ, although only time...
