    Apoc II is far from an Adversary clone. Sure it had Adversary as base code
but if you took the time to check it out and play a bit, you might discover
this. I played Adversary for quite some time.....Apocalypse II doesn't smell
the same. I guess its the lack of overbearing Demi-Gods trying to act like 
Imps. Upon reflection, I now think it was a dew of the Demi-Gods who pissed
me off the most. Abaddon always had the self-control to simply trash me and
move on. DeathDealer, Have you imprisoned any players lately for any comments
on lame titles you set? Just curious. Next time, make sure they even know you
set the title they joked about before transing them and forcing them into the
prison.

    The post you took offense to was over a week old and was a weak effort at
humor. Actually, it was my first post in quite some time. I've been trying to
reduce my "asshole-image" ya know. You want to take over the job? You seem to
have what it takes.

    Yet again, I admit I went overboard at one point. I was excited about
creating. I was excited about new code in dikus. I was excited because I 
think Arctic will be successful.
    Yet again, It has been quite some time since I have posted anything about
Arctic, other than a few "site-needed" posts. I realized that people get tired
of repetitive posts of any kind.
    Yet again, A simple harmless post from me, that was not soliciting a 
response has gotten a barnfire started. Deathdealer, We know we don't like
each other, why else would you post this, But do you really want to fan the 
flames? It won't be the first time I've dealt with morons dictating my actions
and feelings to me. I won't lose any sleep.

    How'd I guess it was you DD? Deja Vu I guess.

-Chris.......Needs new asbestos undies. His current ones are worn out.
