Ecrivian?

Have I just been insulted? Anyone? I have no idea who Ecrivian is supposed to be. Someone explain please.

August 2001 I think I started. I was in CoN when it officially started on 1st September 2001.

I thought Han might remember me considering he was 'so impressed' here

Ecrivian started about the same time as me as well. Was an active member of the community but never won a single VP (I think).

Was a popular guy though, I liked him anyway

Well in that case, providing of course kor liked him too, I will let him off

ROFL @ Hannibal. I know its 6 years past but that is funny.

I'd say 'these forums' rather than 'the forums' as I remember we had different forums earlier.

I knew Nemesis is a vet and I only called him a Duel newbie.

er... yeah, cheers Hannibal. PS, check the Kaohalla, I have got 8.5 VPs already and have played in a WOK 5 Champs game. Not bad for a Newbie

Heck, I don't think I've done anything wrong here, but I'll apologise anyway!

I assumed Nemesis was a new player to WOK, and if you read the posts, I think you'll find that my heart was in the right place giving the "new"guy a second chance at Turn 2. How was I supposed to know he was a vet from times of yore? No, I don't study start-dates. I just come across a "new" contributor on the boards. Sure, the name "Nemesis" rang some kind of bell, but there is a "Nemesis" player-name on every site I ever played on - it's a great name to choose. No, I never overlapped with our Nemesis. If Nemesis had maybe just posted about his RETURN on the thread I set up for such "Old players dropping by ....", then that would have maybe been kinder to all those who are newer than 2004? And saved me wasting my breath?

I see he DID post there, but just saying welcome to some other returner - which a newbie could have written to join in on welcoming the player back.

In that case, obviously you stand a good chance. My comments were for a newbie. Sorry I wasted your time. And mine. Good luck.

And no, I never remembered it from the thread you mention:

Hey Korexus. I was wondering about the link that used to exist to one of my games that Nemesis and Nestalawe won and did a fine write up on. at one time there was a link to that on this site I know the pages are still there and if anyone remembers what the address was to my site there is probably still a link to it there somewhere. I have no clue if it had and of my hard thought out commentary.

Yes. There's a permanent link to it in the "New Visitors Look Here" that I wrote as an explanation of how the game plays. I was so impressed I built it in as a link, as well as quoting from it. I remember asking you to keep it alive in your store on Angelfire, and you kindly agreed. Thanks.

I was impressed by Nestalawe's write-up. No memory of ewho he was playing against. Note that mention of you is buried in UD's post, not a mention that I made. So no, I didn't remember you.

Oh well, I'll still try to help new players.

Turn By Turn Summary By Nestalawe' AND Nemesis - Circle Of Nine

Duke sent me an email telling me Kaomaris was on the way back to full health and that if I was going to return to post in this thread. Thus, I never posted in the 'Old players just dropping by ... and saying hello' thread.

So I blame Duke, he is used to that anyway.

In that case, thanks to Nestalawe AND YOU for that write-up of a real game; it's what drew me into WOK in the first place, because I could see how it played. Thanks.

I hope I made your write-up live on, by incorporating it into "New players look here", so that it's done even more good. If it's still there as a link.

Anyway, about your chances versus trewqh .....

That's nice to hear. Just looking at the game we had me, Nestalawe, Tomb Raider, Bryk, Ecrivian, Allister and Skarn all in that beginner game!

I remember reading the write up of that game when i was deciding to join wok or not. It really got me enthusiastic to play the game!
