Now one of the great CCC posters is Erik Roggenburg. I have had enough of reading this "Yes, my last name IS Dutch. Just don't ask me what it means!"
Enrico and I need to know!!?
Harvey,

I already asked Eric some time ago. I was told it was a city in Holland............. :( I was hoping it was something more risque! :P

Close. It's a city in Germany: http://www.roggenburg.de/
and also a city in Switzerland.
As far as I know there is no city called Roggenburg in the Netherlands.
If you try to translate the name (from Dutch) the best I can come up with is 'City of (sting)rays'.

Hi Richard,

'Roggen' is a kind of corn in German.
It is used for darker bread and darker beers.
Good luck in Leiden!

Best regards,

Consider this a warning. Do not write future defamatory posts about George, or decisive actions will be taken.

P.S. George, is that how you wanted it? I wrote it just like you told me to.

so Harvey....
about Leiden...

how about a nice report when the tournament is over?

a sort of day by day recap like your article for Selective Search a few years back?

i think the members here would love to read about the exploits first hand from a top operator running a top engine from a personal perspective

as you well know i do not even care about PC engines and EVEN I would find it fascinating to read it

even better would be a day by day recap from you after the days events but i am not asking for some like that of course

i want you to know that i am running the risk of EXCOMMUNICATION from the Collectors Guild for even posting this here

Wadya Say Regards?
