There are many people on this site, not all of them post, but many do. Out of the posts they post, there are some horrible ones, there are some bad ones, there are some average ones, there are some good ones, and there are some excellent ones, and then there are those that are
TOTALLY AWESOME!
Which posts have you read that fit into the TOTALLY AWESOME! (tm) category? Post them here! 8-)

ha ha, no, it's not trademarked

This is technically a post within a post, but it's one of the most memorable that I've come across:

Mr Changsha wrote:As of today, 17% of CC's finest are ranked at officer or above and a whopping 11% of players are either lieutenants or captains.

Senior officers (colonel and above) make up 1.6% of the rankings while the brigadiers and up make up .5%.

7% of current players are cooks..too many cooks and not enough soliders it seems to me!

Fact is, we have too many officers.

How about we make 2,000 points the cut off for lieutenant? This would give us a 5% officer base..which seems a bit more reasonable to me.

CC could add in levels of NCO's to cover 1,600 to 2,000 and I would like to see something like...

800 = Cadet
900 = Private
1100 = Private 1st Class
1300 = Corporal
1400 = Corporal 1st Class
1600 = Sergeant
1800 = Sergeant 1st Class
1900 = Sergeant Major
2000 = Lieutenant
2300 = Captain
2500 = Major
3000 = Colonel
3500 = Brigadier
4000 = General
4500 = Field Marshall

I also adjusted the lower end, as it is equally ridiculous to have, for example, more sergeants than privates. The 100 point spread of sergeant majors would reflect their rarity in the army..I think it would be quite a nice niche rank to have. Colonel would become a real challenge to aim for, while we could count our true elite (Generals) on two hands.

What say you?

Your ranks do not bear close scrutiny as you have missed out the hidden ranks they represent.

I have placed those details below.

800 (or less) = Proof that there is sometimes a case for eugenics (zeta grade)
900 = Requires constant Savlon attention for knuckles AKA cannon fodder (epsilon grade, requires soma fix daily)
1100 = Normally found at back of class with oddly sloping forehead but good cannon fodder all the same (epsilon grade, requires soma occasionally)
1300 = Also found at back of class reading book, but not realising it is upside down (epsilon grade, no soma)
1400 = Well, we all need good dishwashers (delta grade)
1600 = Struggles manfully to keep up with basic grade (delta+ grade)
1800 = Manages basic grade and looks down nose at 1600 and below (low end gamma grade)
1900 = Wishes they were a 2000 (high end gamma grade, wishes to be a beta)
2000 = Thanks the Lord daily they aren't one of those below (low end beta with delusional moments)
2300 = Knows they are better than those below so ignores the thanking the Lord (typical bourgeois beta)
2500 = Feels comfortable with beta existence.
3000 = Knows they are members of Aristos and normally driven to higher (Alpha grade...of course)
3500 = Has all the attitudes of Aristo and whipping the serfs (Alpha)
4000 = Pretty relaxed because has all the life advantages like skill, intelligence, breeding capabilities etc (Alpha+)
4500 = Sits at top of cc food chain, sometimes incorrectly but an Alpha++ all the same, if only due to cunning and wiliness.

And I like it.

This one is worth a mention too.

what's worse? having a dog in your fridge or having a red egg carton?

by **JoshyBoy** on Tue May 10, 2011 7:23 pm

Red egg carton. Uhg.

At least the dog would protect my beer, etc. On second thoughts, I'd teach my dog to drink the beer.

What kind of man are you? I don't want no dog drinking my beer; I drink my beer, I'm a man!

I think that Fruitcake's quoted post is extremely interesting not only because it is a genuinely good idea but because it allows a momentary glimpse inside Fruit's "slightly sociopathic" psyche. Hats off to his trooper of a therapist.

I remember that post. It made me lol. A quick search of Mr. C's posts gives me one of my favorites:

After spending 6 months developing this game, it's now ready for prime time. There may be some imperfections (and believe me, there is still plenty of room for improvement) but I need to see people playing already. Thanks to all who helped out with everything from graphics and testing to legal, PR and friendly advice.

Let the games begin....

Oh yeah... and happy New Year 2006!

Surprised that no one mentioned this.
