	To: Capt. Nemo Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I thought about sending you this via eMail, but I think that the people here should read this too.

Capt. Nemo, your fans are overreacting. No offense is meant to anyone here, but I think this should be said.

Capt. Nemo has my deep respect. But he is not my "idol", "messiah" or "primary deity" or whatever else people think of him.

This should make it clear:

Are you kidding? You'd actually send that in an e-mail? If you sent that to me I'd tell you to take a running jump.

Number one: Captain Nemo is not responsible for what other people say. He is not responsible for threads that other people start. If it's getting out of hand it is for the forum moderators to take action, not Captain Nemo. And certainly not you, and definately not in such a public outburst.

Number two: Red Front has been the most successful example of tactical wargaming in Civilization 2, and obviously appeals to people who like war-games rather than empire building. In that respect it has also been one of the most detailed and well-researched scenarios, very well conceived and designed.

Number three: Captain Nemo has very obviously spent a lot of his time making this scenario for the enjoyment of others. The heartwarming public response to this must be a very gratifying reward. I'm sure we other designers would also wish to experience such a reaction, but in that absence I wouldn't wish to deprive anyone else. I'm very proud for Captain Nemo and freely acknowledge the quality of his scenarios (even if 2194 days was just a graphics patch of Axis and Allies).

Number four:

quote: All I want to say here is that you should try to make the people calm down, tell them you're not a god and not the Lord or whatever else they think of you.

I'm not saying that Nemo is responsible for what people say or do, but the people listen to him. I think that if Nemo agrees, and tells the people to calm down a little bit, they would do so.

Nemo deserves some praise, but I personally think he got damn enough of it. People are starting to become unfair to other designers.

Stefan: The reason that I start several threads about Red Front is that I wrote a strategy for it and I need people's response about how it works. It takes a long time to pass through several turns due to the number of units in the scenario so I can't guarantee one tactic will work under all circumstances. Sometimes I posted new findings, which I though might be of interest to other people, especially designers of scenarios. I'm just using Captain Nemo's Red Front to boost my own reputaion. It's my personal show-off and has nothing to do with Captain Nemo.

	Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Xin Yu (and everyone else): OK, I'm sorry.
Mao (you wrote that, didn't you?): I'm especially sorry. I didn't mean to compare you with a nazi or so. I kinda like turned my brain off, looked at the forums and was a little annoyed to read Red Front again.

I haven't noticed, however that, talking about unfairness, I was unfair myself. I shouldn't have said what I did, and I'm sorry. Please, if you hate me now, do so, I can understand that.
Capt. Nemo: Whatever you think of me now...
I'm an *******, I admit.
This is no "Just kidding", it's an excuse for what I said, because I have realized that I did something wrong. I will do my best to be more tolerant in the next time.

*Now, how much money did I recieve to say that? *

	Put an end to popups!

Yeah, I think I wrote that. Following Nemo as the Messiah? Are you crazy? It's a game! I, for one, still remember that
