Thanks for the compliment, LM, but I'm surprised you dug it up after two years. I'm also surprised you even found it! I see that my last post was about three months before I lost my apartment and ended up in the homeless shelter. I've had my place and computer for seven months now, but I'm so busy working on stuff I haven't had time to play anything other than the ocassional single mission. That means I haven't played an actual career in more than two years!
I was inspired myself by players who filed straight-up war patrols in Aces Of The Deep. Some people liked them, as you can read, and some thought they were boring. Compared to Laughing Swordfish's stuff they are. If I was to do it again I think I'd be less detailed and more imaginative, but I kind of like writing reports like that. I always keep a log when I'm playing a career - it's just the way I am. I even keep a little printed grid-chart that I can lay up against the screen. That's why my reports always had the four-digit grid locations instead of just two.
Anyway, as I said on the other thread it's really good to hear from you again.
[edit] I'm laughing looking at all the blanks where the pictures used to be. Laughing because of Lionman's timing: I took those down to free up some space at my Photobucket account - less than a week ago!
:rotfl:
