Thom Lives!!!
« on: June 15, 2006, 06:09:25 AM »
I just spoke to Thom Talamini via phone and he is alive, well and living in Philadelphia. The following were some of the topics addressed

1) The forums are not going anywhere. Thom never heard anything about the forums leaving and he said as far as he knew they were not shutting down.

2) Cerulean Mists. Great news that Thom is planning on announcing soon.

3) Warzone. See item 2

Bottom line is that Thom is on the road back and I for one am gonna stay the course. He will be posting soon (don't know how soon but soon) about upcoming plans. Keep the faith True Believers

Glad to hear Thom's well and look forward to any announcements about the games. It will be great to see the forums stay up too.

Good news even if I waste enough time at work here with y'all.   Karma's a funny thing.

I think you better check with Thom again.  I really do hope this board continues but according to the billing record, it is due on the 15th or 16th of June.  Unless Thom or Lance is making payment for another year, this board will cease to exist.  My feeling is that Thom may not remember the dates and also the board is registered to Lance (and not Thom, even tho Lance works for Thom).

I sincerely hope Thom is right and I'm wrong.

Just my 2 cents.

Outstanding,

This is great news. 

My Farewell message may have been premature, and I sincerely hope it is.

If Thom or Lance read this, Hi!  Hope all is going well.

If anyone can get in touch with Thom/Lance, please have'em check their email.  This board will be sending them a final notice email.  It will be shut down after that 24hrs (tomorrow).  I sincerely hope that I'm wrong about this...

I've also tried to find out how much will it cost to have the board up and unfortunately they can't even do that without Thom/Lance permission.

I'm hoping that I'm wrong and Thom is right.  If not, I'll see you guys at Minirealms/Chribu's site.

Very simple.  I asked them.    ;D
