This board is full of great cross references to information on games. No doubt it go moved without the links being readjusted by the migration.
So, I find post after post with great links & 404.
Quelle domage!

Yes, sad move; by this way the posts should have been analyzed and edited.
I try to correct my own posts when I find an old so one.
Fix: That's "Quel dommage!"

(but I know I'm not so good in english too)

Sorry. My spell checker only does English. And any case, I guess the word is masculine.
I can read, but I cannot write.

Wow Markshot a blast from the past. I used to love reading your posts about 1830 on the old wargamer site. Also nice Aces of the Deep avatar

I played 1830 for 3 years straight. (3 games/day) Great game, but I finally was able to win 80% of the time. Still a fantastic achievement for an AI which doesn't cheat.
Ah, the avatar is both happy and sad. I left that after fellow team member Henry (our German Ambassador) passed. We were both fans of the game. His death was very untimely (30) and struck us all hard.

Sejou m kòmanse pale Kreyòl Ayisyen ankò. M te aprann lang nan depi douz zan. Se poutèt sa, m pa ka janm ekri lang Franse san anpil fot.

Haitian Creole: These days I am speaking Haitian Creole again. I learned since was 12. It's for that reason, I could never write French without lots of mistakes.
NOTE: What I wrote above looks strange, but you would catch many words if you heard it. That's because the official writing is phonetic, but much of the vocabulary are very close to French: Commencer, encore, aprendre, ecrit, Francais, ... However, you still would not have understood as the grammar is primarily West African. But I can still read French.

I will have to look at that again. I am not sure that I follow how to convert broken links. I have a cold, and I will have to try that when my head is clear.

Nikel,
I did look again. It is trivial easy. Thanks so much for pointing out the simple transformation!

I would like all my colds were as short as yours!
