Global 1940 Wittman and Private Panic vs Credulous and Elrood

[Private-Panic]

Japan’s turn when you are back Elrood.

I think it is you who should have been enjoying the peace up until now. Sleepless nights and a screaming baby await you. Enjoy!

Love the Yojimbo image BTW. It’s a great film.

[Elrood]

Recognizing kurosawas work?! I like you already.  :-)

[Witt]

I only make clever friends, Elrood.
PP is a gentleman too.

[Private-Panic]

A gentleman? Mmmm! Not what my wife says!

Kurosawa! Seven Samurai is one of my top ten all-time best films. But Throne of Blood & Yojimbo and others are excellent too. Just bought Throne of Blood (last saw it 25 years ago) and Rashomon.

[Witt]

Show off!

[Elrood]

Nice! I can recommend: Akahige (redbeard?). Its a very good movie as well… with Mifune Toshiro of course.

[Private-Panic]

Thanks SebastiAn - I’ll look that one out.

[Private-Panic]

Bought it! Had better be good! :-)

Morning Credulous.
Would the Italians like to scramble to SZ97?

[Elrood]

…in case you haven’t done already so…

Pro-Tip: TripleA Engine Version: 1.8.0.7 solves the “forum logout” problems we’ve been having.

[Witt]

Afternoon Elrood. Thank you for that tip. It is weird, but I think I might miss that now!
I have just downloaded 09, so should be ok anyway.

[Elrood]

Oh… that one came out yesterday. Fixes a few bugs. Ok, will upgrade to that one as well.

[Credulous]

@wittmann:

Morning Credulous.

Sorry for delay but no thanks.

As the young ones would say:
