Greg0r Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 A few years ago I did some research for Stuart Milne, the Scottish Head of Research. I researched Alloa, my home town club, a team I used to go to see regularly (me and my mates ever formed a young supporters club ). Anyway was randomly talking on irc today to people ive 'known' for years and the subject came up. Obviously its a pretty good boast...i got my name in the CM credits (o and dont tell SI but i also added myself in as a scout). Someone on the irc chatroom found this page, http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/championship-manager-4/credits (i'm Gregor Smith btw) which then linked to this http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,171171/ , a devloper profile, which i thought was pretty cool . Anyway this lead me to wanna see if there was anything else about myself and CM4 on the net so i googled it. I got an interesting hit, this http://www.gregorsmith.com/blog/2004/12/17/me-and-the-firefox-new-york-times-advert/ In it the guy claims he was in CM4, even links to a screenshot of CM4 credits with my name highlighted. One of the comments, as sad as it is, annoyed me: "From Alloa to Inter in a click of a button! The thousand of people I have told are mega impressed." MY claim to fame has been stolen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
