UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted December 8, 2013 I've not seen or heard anything about 'The Black Baron' for ages!.... is he still around?...was he involved in WOFF? Anyone know??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Last thing I heard was how he wanted to do his oldtimer, and to spend some more time with the family. For me, OvS is involved in WOFF so much, that he started the whole thing with just some few friends. And I am pretty sure that he has done and revamped many skins (Fokker D.VII?). I think I even remember, that he liked listening to YES' "Tales of Topographic Oceans" during the job? Or did I dream that part?

RAF_Louvert 101 Posted December 9, 2013 . He is listed as part of the WOFF dev team as a skinner and historian so I imagine he is still about. But as you gents say, we've not seen him here in ages. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Polovski 440 Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) OvS is mostly busy last 2 or so years working hard in his main jobs Fireman etc, so not much WOFF. I am sure he will be along at some point to say hi. For the record WM started the original phase 1 of OFF many moons ago originally with David "Davo" Payne and then I think Rob "Capt Winters" Stevenson, and Paul "Nod" Norris. Then I joined a few months after the start. I suggested to WM etc, if OvS could join us and help as I knew him and his work from "SWWISA" Red Baron modding group. He has worked on mainly Fokker DVII skins and some Albs this time and squadron emblems. I can't remember if Shredward also joined at that time but likely.

von Baur 54 Posted December 9, 2013 Or charge Lou for three more memberships. Or include all of them when you're buying rounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HumanDrone 4 Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) I think Lou would take option "B"! It reminds me of the joke about the Irishman who would come 'round the pub every day and order three pints of Guiness. The barkeep wondered about this, and finally got to know him well enough to ask about it. The man stated he had brothers in America and Europe, and so every day the three of them would buy a round and reminisce about their youth together on the fair isle. This went on a while, until one day the man came in and ordered only two pints. The barman, nonplussed, didn't say anything at first, but finally screwed up his courage and told him he was sorry about his loss. To which the Irishman replied " Oh, no, no, it's nuttin' like that! It's me, I've given up drinkin'!" /Irishman //Likes Guiness ///ducks and runs away... I sure hope OvS is well & happy...
