History: People Unclear On The Concept

Posted on July 3, 2006 by Scott Jennings| 11 Comments

From Gamespot:

Crown of Glory is a turn-based strategy game that takes place 200 years after the start of the Napoleanic Wars.

…which would be around 2005.\’c2\~

    2005, I remember it well. Those were halcyon days when we finally got the new fangled iron horse and telegraph wires into our town. Of course, we had to deal with those damnable women asking for the right to vote, of all things, but we quickly put that nonsense down.

    Who knows what the future will bring? Why, I’ve heard tell of fabulous new inventions like voices traveling on wires, horseless carriages, and heavier than air flying machines, but I put all that down to irrational, and fantastic rumor.

    Will never happen. That’s just crazy talk!

    Tooks like it’s a typo, since the news blurb about it says that it takes place from 1799-1820

    Yeah, silly Gamespot. Everyone knows Napoleon came over to America in 1620 and discovered multiflavored ice cream before conquering the Circle K (which was owned by Sitting Bull).

    I turn to three guys… three of them, and they are ‘Tier II Technicians’ at that… and I deliver this gem. 200 years. The Napoleanic Wars.

    …they just kinda sit there, silent, and one of them shrugs. None of them got it. A few minutes later, one of them had Googled, and then got it.

    /ne sighs.
