Can someone answer the basic question of the facing of that kinked column ... Otherwise it will reappear in another post !

And can ne of the conceptors answer the questions .

That would be great and end a lot of useless speculation

For anyone who was arguing with me about FoG players, or gamer's behavior in general I have two words for you:

Case

and

Point


I take it you're American then and missed the sub text?

I think a number of posters have touched on how the right solution could be reached. As far as I can see the rules only talk about 'facing two directions' as a result of turning in combat and hence that is a definition. Thus the kinked column is NOT facing in two direction etc.
Also is there any truth in the rumour that it was Dave Ruddock's performance at the IWF that started the rioting in Greece?

I suppose you are saying that the Greek government put all their money on me to finish second and the reason for the financial collapse is because I didn't?

Not guilty I am afraid. I am reliably informed it was all Hammy's fault.

So you take pride in some of the stinkiest cheesy moves since DBM and then start casting aspersions about people's domestic arrangements. Is that really necessary?

Granted the game in question may have been played between friends and so any iffy moves were in the spirit of friendly competativeness but it certainly doesn't look good at first reading. Understandable that some may think this the norm and not reserved for Hammy, Tim and sundry other mates.

Since you know nothing about me then I think you quite clearly have the right to make blanket assertions that only prove your own ignorance.

I questioned insulting some one and then suggested that some people may get the wrong impression based upon the content of the original post. You've already admited the cheese so what blanket assertions are you refering to?

I realise a lot of this is humour, or attempts at it (like my poor humour). But this is degenerating into "handbags at dawn". Tone it down.
