:!: The new Unit :!:

Post by Chris »

Hey all, Chris here. I just wanted to let everyone know that Unit has changed his name. My new name is Chris, which is my real life name. I decided to make the change just to make remembering it easier. Hope nobody has a problem with the change. :D

im seriously considoring using my real name which i dont think is taken yet because it would be very nice to have your own name should the game become big. if i did that id still name my buildings Dowies this and such.

Well i wanted to let every one know, it is gettin' old already having to say i'm unit everytime i go into an island. So i just decided to announce it here and hopefully i will be able to spend more time on the forums which i usually these days only visit about once every 3 weeks. :P

Here's the problem........

Post by Fudrake »

The irony is that only very little people who play the game join the forums and actually READ WHAT IS here. i doubt it'd make much difference, but don't matter:

1) Those who know Unit are oldbies, ish.
2) Those who don't know Unit.......why would they ask? They'd say "What's Unit? Can we eat that?"

We need to populate the forums more.......um, make it COMPULSORY to join the forums before playing the game? Suggested before, but I forgot what the problem with that was.

The problem is that it wouldn't help, they know about the existence of the forums already, just that they won't go there. Plus, its probably going to be buggy...

Post by Fudrake »

I know unit just as unit, I knew that G_unit left the game LOOOOOOONG ago. Unit isn't that newish, is he????

I knew him since.....um......3.53. I think, that's old enough :) (Come to think of it, it's been 9 months.....almost :D)

no no!
G_Unit has always been G_Unit
in 04 G_Unit had his username to Unit
Unit (username n' all) is now chris, probably because he got bored of everyone mistaking him for G_Unit

and we dont know if Unit aka Chris was in .53!

hope that makes sense :wink:

Chit-Chat

Post by Mattizme »

I find it interesting that Mit says that there will be no chit-chat forum, and everyone proceeds to turn this into one :)

On the other, actual subject, whjat does Chris have to say about G_Unit? Was it him?

I suppose the next thing from chit chat IS general, where you are free to talk about everything and anything related to the game.


I coulda sworn that I have seen Unit in 0.353.......
Or maybe not.

actually.....why don't we just ask Chris??
