It would really suck to have a bajillion websites dedicated to making fun of you. And his latest flamewars actually weren't his fault, a lot of people seem to be baiting him, even if all he does is post a random, non-insulting comment (although rare, it happens).

If he didn't act like a complete moron when he came to HLP, I'd almost feel sorry for him.

Has anyone actually ever read the BC forums? That's pretty funny in and of itself :)

I sincerely hope that wasn't sent.  This forum has had enough drama in the past week to last it a year.  No more, please.

On that note, yes, I have read the BC forums once.  That was more than enough for me.  If I didn't know better, I'd say that everyone posting there without a gripe is one of his personal cronies or himself under an alias, if just to build up his ego.

It's such a pity, too. With a halfway decent programmer and a decent QA team, Battlecruiser could be a cool game.

that's true of most of his games, but he just sets out to do way too much.

You mean he's ever done anything besides Battlecruiser games?  The only reason UC wasn't called Battlecruiser something-or-other is because he changed publishers and they didn't want the name association.

:lol: Could we have a version with a blank/dashed line for a custom name instead of "Derek Smart" ?
It would be a special gift for someone I know.

My hotmail account froze during the sending process, so I'm not sure if it got through. We'll see. :drevil:


Is www.dereknotsmart.com registered, I wonder?

Evidently, Derek Smart is farther back on the evolutionary path than I thought. I was thinking somewhere around howler monkey, to tell you the truth.

The Alpha Male strikes again! :p
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!
