The early installers exposed a bug that should only have appeared on the European DVD-based version of the game and not the download version of the game. Therefore those of you who will be getting the game tomorrow are LESS likely to have issues BECAUSE OF US! Those of you who don't like what we did should leave this thread and go back to watching Matlock reruns. To my fellow citizens of Kiribati: We now have a flag. Fly it proudly!

Although I have anointed myself El Presidente for life, I (or rather my installation of Windows 10) will be leaving my beloved island nation at midnight Mountain Standard Time.

There are enough planes right now over some airports, its like that saucer arrival scene from close Encounters........... Thanks for showing that home movie of my arrival here on earth. I was very nervous that day but once I discovered FSX and flight simming I felt right at home because all of us here are just a few power cells short and operate with a very dim light.

The main language is Gilbertese, although most folks do speak a somewhat unique version of English.

August 17, 20205 yr CNN is reporting that an unexpected large gathering of people at the airport on Kiribati has caused a misbalance and Kiribati has just capsized and sunk. Kerry W.

August 17, 20205 yr So, are we gonna have a mass multiplayer Fly-In to Kiribati this weekend, or what???!! I'm thinking that Cessna Citation Longitude could get me there in style. 🙂 "That's what" - She
August 17, 20205 yr I personally am thankful for the mass exodus to Kiribati. It means the overload at midnight tonight (for me as I've been informed that my attempts to join the exile would be fruitless) will be that much less of a burden. It's a drop in the bucket, but I suspect every drop will help. So, carry on proud Kiribati people! Edited August 17, 20205 yr by Agrajag i7 8700K @4Ghz, EVGA RTX3080 Ultra, 32GB RAM, Two 2K displays.
