Lord_magerius · 02-18-11, 11:12 PM

Put me down for one too

Walruss · 02-18-11, 11:50 PM

Yup, I'll snag a copy. Postage to australia?

bookworm_020 · 02-19-11, 01:50 AM

Another copy for Australia over here!

Rhodes · 02-19-11, 05:16 AM

I want one!

donw · 02-19-11, 09:44 AM

Hey there ya old sea hound.. YOU know, probably better than anybody here.. that I have cut and pasted these tidbits off the forum .. ran em threw a word processor..(which buckled, and locked up on more than one occasion) then put them back together in one place.. not once but twice after the first one shut its doors...

But you can bet your last sea barnacle I'll be grabbing a copy of the published version!

If nothing else, just for the pure joy of knowing somebody else had to go through what I have... for what..YEARS now??

Great job Rollie! I don't care if you make any money on this deal... I'm just tickled to pieces it may be shared and enjoyed by more people!

Please make sure that the readers know it was written right along with your experiences playing "The Game"

Sailor Steve · 02-19-11, 10:52 AM

@ donw: I know I made the first dibs, but for your sterling service to LS and the rest of us I'll gladly let you cut in line ahead of me.

bookworm_020 · 02-19-11, 06:20 PM

Will the book be a finished story or do we have to wait for updates and patches?

donw · 02-19-11, 07:50 PM

LOL Steve No worries mate.. I'll grab 2 just in case!
Bookworm.. That's exactly what I asked in email.. Haven't been to this forum for so long.. Did the war end or the fish run outta luck?

This story cannot be written before either occurs!

Laughing Swordfish · 02-20-11, 03:25 PM

Hi Don, and the the rest of the guys who responded.

Yes U-46 is alive and kicking according to it's own SH3 game and also here in the story.

Don has been a constant and incredibly patient companion in putting this story together.

It hasn't finished yet, we're still at sea, and Heidi will be waiting at the church, but I thought it was high time to at least get the first volume out and test the water so to speak.

So the plan is to put what we can in book form, and see how we go for volume two.

Oh, and you're right Steve, "shift" means to move something from one place to another and is an English slang to 'sell'.

The publisher has got back to me and is very enthusiastic.

I'm determined to get this into print, however it turns out.

Jimbuna · 02-20-11, 04:16 PM

You can certainly stick me down for one Raoul

Lord_magerius · 02-20-11, 05:33 PM

Once it's finished maybe talk to Neal about having it on the site and for a small donation you can download a copy. Might also help you shift some of the initial 200 that you need.
Keep up the good work

donw · 02-21-11, 08:23 AM

Just a bit off topic here for a sec.. Heard invitations went out Rollie.. Did you get yours? (ie. The wedding)

Kpt. Lehmann · 02-25-11, 09:07 AM

---Message follows---

ATTN TO: Kpt. Raoul DeBunsen, Heidi and friends, and the valiant crew of U-46...

THANK YOU for the dozen roses you sent to myself and Mrs. Lehmann! They are beautiful and are very much appreciated. Quite heart-warming indeed! Here's hoping you are all in good health and spirits! SINK THEM ALL!!!

Also, we sincerely hope we can obtain one of the first copies of your book regardless of any monetary cost to us! Just let us know what we need to do to arrange payment. Published or un-published... it matters not.

Thank you again for the roses, Kpt. Rollie! You are the best, matey!

Kindest regards and warmest wishes,
Kpt. and Mrs. Lehmann

Laughing Swordfish · 03-09-11, 08:17 PM

You're so welcome you both. I'm very happy for you, but where's my slice of cake??!!

Seriously, all the best for the future, when I'm not involved in killing people on the high seas, I would like nothing more than to get over to Texas and visit you (mind you Texas State is bigger than my entire country, I'd never find you, but you could hop over to London.

It's like New York, but not always as polite!
