Hello,

That is the famous English word for Garbage. I am an American living Down Under and I wish they would just say Trash Can, but noooo, Rubbish Bin!

Need a PBEM player, ready to send file!

Hi Paul. Rubbish Rifle commander here ready to fire dirt clods and spit balls at your British 'coats as they file down the road with their tales tucked in.
Send me your first turn when ready. All options on except for Rifles, Cannon and Line Movement Disruption which should be OFF (must insist on the latter or we play with Rifles ON).
Send your file in a first class rubbish bin when ready.
Are all British officers such trash talkers! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
Also you might but your unit in your profile so we can see which side you are on. I assume British but are you Tory, Hessian, Indian or just a regular Clown, er, Crown officer?

Maj. Peters,

Your on!

Bloody firewall prevented me from sending file from work. Will send when I return home.

If you have alternate e-mail I could try that.

Cheers,

That must have been my auto-anti-garbage filter doing its best to keep filth and junk out of my Inbox.

It usually lets in the filth and keeps out game files!
I have archdukekarl@yahoo.com as an alternate address but I hate to do game files via that interface - too slow in finding the directories via the file finder and all that. No drag and drop like Netsacpe Messenger.
Maybe I should be forwarding my Yahoo mail to my home address?

Major Bill Peters:

Once you see who I work for you will know why their firewall did not allow the file.

Check your Yahoo, file should be there.

Maj. Peters,

You e-mail listed in Profile doesn't seem to be working. Maybe their net is down, but I have tried from home and still bouncing.

Have sent to yahoo for now.

Cheers,

Sir, to be fair and honest to our patrons - I also remember you taking it to me quite nicely in our game of Germantown (almost 2 years ago now). The Clown sent the Clownials rrrrouting all over creation. George lost his wig and so did Stirling.
Whenever you feel up to a battle send me a courier. I believe that we are tied now in our games. Would you care to show me how to roll my Rs on the battlefield?
No boasting here. I get tarred and feathered enough by you gents to do anything like that. Getting beaten by one of our Colonial gents - Steve Davenport - in Bladensberg - I am British in that manuever game.

Major Bill Peters,

Have you petered out? <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

I haven't heard back from your Colonial HQ on whether you were able to set up Battle Road (b) <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

To the Colonial's,

What is the matter, you fear my big Tomahawk will take a few scalps? <img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Looks like Maj. Peters took the wrong Battle road because I still am in Concord waiting for some upstart Yankees to take me on in Battle Road (b) from SDC #7. <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>

No one available to spank the British on their way back to Boston? <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
