Well you could aways post them here. :mischief:

Or just joint the next 18 player pitboss game you see;)
Don't forget your knife:ninja:

Robi No wonder your having a long time killing george.. Your still using knives. Gunships and artillery are much quicker.

Theoden

We shall come like a theive in the night!
That can clearly be seen by your pillaging all over my territory... I almost haven't noticed you coming when you're using stealth like that. :lol:
My information comes from more reliable sources then civ stats. Civ stats would have me believe someone has been supporting you who has not. It is just as well that the Roman people are smarter then the true puppet master behind this war or we could have attacked an ally.

As future warning, you should never try and trick Rome. :nono:
How have we tricked rome? We didn't ask anyone to look at civstats and we didn't ask you to start making (supposely incorrect :p) assumptions. :)

Hey Theoden...you better make that settler find a place to settle soon..otherwise its going to die when your city dies.

Mel...how much will you give me to kill his settler over here by the area of George/Tubby and me. I would do it for free but if you want to conitinue our present arrangements for longer..thats cool to.
If you would so kind as to leave a tile somewhere that's not within cultural borders or within 2 tiles of any city. ;) I was actually thinking of gifting you the settler, but with this attitude I'm not really sure...
Actually Regentman was a city state before you by about 15 turns so you would have to go and kill him before you die to lay claim to that title.

If it makes you feel better you can have the title of most attacked city state
i agree, we need to make a clear distinction between city state and vassal state. :mischief: And the title of most attacked city state (and still alive) isn't bad either... actually I think I'll just go for the awards this game. ;)

Only tile I see is south of your settler in the middle of dessert and mountains....between George and I...

Good luck with that site.(it sucks)

Tubby has one city left can you get over here before he comes back on monday???

/tough break Mauer....I close on my house here on Thursday and close on the new one on Friday. Thigns better not fall apart now.

Mauer

I can make it over there in about 8 turns .... lol

Meleager

MSN logs, PMs and other places on the internet have alot of very insightful info...then theres the private thoughts and secret plans that I am sure we all have and dont tell anyone.
What? No, I don't have any plans to attack Robi whilst his troops are away. :mischief: :jesus:

I have something special prepared for you... figured I might have some fun :evil

How have we tricked rome? We didn't ask anyone to look at civstats and we didn't ask you to start making (supposely incorrect :p) assumptions. :)

You would have been quite happy to let us be fooled... as soon as it was mentioned you should have proclaimed the truth like a good little city state...

Yer if only lurkers could see msn logs etc.

Then there is also those of us who filled in for a turn or two ;) . In any event This thread is by far the most entertaining one of the day! :goodjob:

How is the Mongolian Empire Doing by the way? They still around? :confused:

The Mongolians decided to build The Kremlin during all this mess. :hmm: Tensions between the English and Mongolians have cooled since we now have open borders.


btw is pitbosss down? I can't get in from Boston.
It seems it is down according to Robi.

good move by the Mongolians...they have the gold now they can use it...better.

Sorry, I just spent several hours trying to copy photos to a CD using Kodak EasyShare. Had to power off completely a few times. :eek:

Decided I don't need those photos right now.

BCLG100

take it that it wasnt so easy to 'EasyShare' then?

Second time I've tried to connect when the civstats said it was good. Keeps timing out though.

Same with me. I can't connect to pitboss.

Still timing out.

DaveShack, when you get it running again, please reload to the beginning of 1675 AD. :)

DaveShack
Oct 09, 2006, 12:56 AM
I must have disabled it during the panic caused by my CD burning fiasco. I was seeing 100% CPU use by [System] and thought there might have been an infection. Turned out it was a partially burned CD which was locking things up.

It's been restarted at the beginning of 1675. I'll be watching to see if there are still troubles.

Robi D
Oct 09, 2006, 01:56 AM
No problems Dave, just happy to have you hosting it:D

I just got in and played my turn with no problems

Meleager
Oct 09, 2006, 02:53 AM
Oh Theoden, thank you for moving your units out of your city, they make much easier targets that way...

and what is this? Some sort of flying machine damaged your units! :eek: Now I'll just sit back while your defenceless units shrivel up and then I'll walk right in. So much for more casualties. I'll probably end up with less over all. Even if you were a little evil just then with my cannons (which were going to suicide anyway).

In the mean time, I'll enjoy hearing your protests for the next few turns whilst there is nothing you can do :coffee: . I have quite a few of these things on the way. I should have just gone in and killed you straight up, but it is more fun using the long and drawn out way.

So how would you like the story of your legend to go?

robboo
Oct 09, 2006, 06:51 AM
OK guys I am killing my computer. I will be back on Saturday. Daveshack has my team till then.

Robi adn George go ahead and start playing my turns in your respective games.

Tubby...sorry i wont be here to kill you. Dave may or may not do it...Dave just try no to lose too many units.

I'll declare peace with you Robi, then you can go fight Robboo. I think you've reduced my ability to be a major player.

Nope. But I do love bragging about how great a computer I have. :p

I've been very busy as off late, but I'll pop in to say that the Roman war with Theoden is over... You've killed too many of my troops :cry: I'm going home :(

Just kidding. Roman troops have stormed Theoden's capital. Due to superior tatics and complex reasoning skills not a single man died during the fighting. So much for those unit upgrades, they didn't do a thing...

I also got a nice little bump on the power chart...

Tubby Rower
Oct 13, 2006, 06:32 AM
Due to superior tatics and complex reasoning skills not a single man died during the fighting.so Theoden's troops didn't sufffer losses? :lol:

on another note... WILL SOMEONE KILL ME SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO LOG IN ANYMORE?!!?!?

Well Daveshacks there.:p

Anyhow well played Theoden you hung in there for a long time:goodjob:

Theoden
Oct 13, 2006, 04:52 PM
... Due to superior tatics and complex reasoning skills ...
:lol:

Well done, anyway, on eliminating my (almost) defenseless city state. Would you mind sending me your combat log for the turn of the final blow. Just curious. :)

Thanks to all for an interesting game. Although I didn't have much influence throughout most of the game it was still enjoyable to follow a multiplayer pitboss game, and fun to see just how long I could last. And I must say that I lasted longer than I expected, and I could have lasted much longer if I just had had the time to log in during last turn and settle my refugee city. ;)

I am back..adn tubby will die soon...

Rob from his super internet connection that loads pitboss super fast.

Meleager
Oct 14, 2006, 05:02 AM
@Theoden, I'm afraid the game doesn't want to let me select the data to cpoy and paste. But the battle went like this:

I attacked your units twice with fighters, weakening two of your machine gunners. Then I attacked with an artillery peice, it had only 9%? chance of winng or something like that but it did. After that all your other units were hurt. I attacked you with another 3 artillery, all won. You didn't stand much chance after the first attack.

On a side note I am now back up in 3rd place in score.

RegentMan
Oct 14, 2006, 01:27 PM

robboo
Oct 14, 2006, 04:10 PM
actually i think it was dave playing for me..since i didnt log in to kill you.... I asked if he wanted to kill someone. Tubby was not really my allie..more of a friendship of necessity and sooner or later one of us had to kill the other. Robi just helped get that process started. Good job Tubby sorry you didnt last onger than RM.

Daveshack was it you or did i play a turn while sleeping.

Sorry to see you go Tubs. Unfortunate you had that bizarro variable called Robboo next to you.:mischief:


Should we break out in song?

The king is gone but he's not forgotten
This is the story of a Tubby Rotten
It's better to burn out than it is to rust
The king is gone but he's not forgotten.

Hey hey, my my
Rowing a boat can never die
There's more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.

Meleager
Oct 15, 2006, 12:12 AM
What wars have we had so far? And in what order? I can't remember when DaveShack died and the other wars in the west.

I have this in my head:

Meleager, Robi, Robbo vs Matrix -> RIP Matrix
DaveMCW vs Regentman -> Regentman becomes vasal
DaveMCW vs Theoden -> Theoden becomes city state
Meleager, Robi, and also Grs but not as an ally vs Egypt -> RIP Egypt
Everyone vs Grs and DaveMCW -> RIP Grs, DaveMCW = lonely
--Peace for ages--
Robi, Whomp, latter Robboo, and Meleager after tubby supported Theoden (I killed one unit) vs Tubby -> RIP tubby
Melager vs Theoden -> RIP Theoden

What have I missed?

I know one thing for sure...


Fortunately though, I had the peaceful nations of England and Greece next to me


isn't as correct as he would like....

DaveShack
Oct 15, 2006, 02:51 AM
I'm not sure where these came in the sequence, but...

grs takes DaveShack's settler, but then shows compassion and lets him live
BCLG vs DaveShack -> RIP DaveShack

Yes it was me at the controls of Robboo's army. It wasn't my idea, just following orders... :mischief: I think he said something like "you should wait to see if <people who shouldn't be identified> take out Tubby, or feel free to finish him off if they don't".

Robi D
Oct 15, 2006, 03:06 AM
grs vs DaveShack --> Daveshack spared
--Peace for ages--
Meleager, Robi, Robbo vs Matrix -> RIP Matrix
DaveMCW vs Regentman -> Regentman becomes vasal
BCLG vs Daveshack --> RIP Daveshack
DaveMCW vs Theoden -> Theoden becomes city state
DaveMcW, grs vs Saladin -> RIP Saladin
Meleager, Robi, and also Grs but not as an ally vs Egypt -> RIP Egypt
Everyone vs Grs and DaveMCW -> RIP Grs, DaveMCW = lonely
Tubby , later Robi D and George vs Sigma -> RIP Sigma
--Peace for ages--
Robi, Whomp, latter Robboo, and Meleager after tubby supported Theoden (I killed one unit) vs Tubby -> RIP tubby
Melager vs Theoden -> RIP Theoden
Robi D vs George --> TBD but george aint looking good


That should fill it out for you. Arn't you glad i've been taking notes.:)

Meleager
Oct 15, 2006, 03:28 AM
Ok, I've exluded the big one because it was big: (advanced logic, you'll get it one day)

Most war mongering nations:
Nation: Wars involved in
1. Robi D: 5
2. Meleager: 4
3. Grs 3
3. DaveMcw: 3
4. DaveShack: 2
4. Robboo: 2
4. Theoden: 2
4. Tubby: 2
4. George: 2
5. Matrix: 1
5. Regentman: 1
5. BCLG: 1
5. Saladin: 1
5. Egypt: 1
5. Sigma:1
5. Whomp: 1

Bring it on Rome boy, i'm aiming for double figures now:hammer:

Meleager
Oct 15, 2006, 04:15 AM
Hey, I just need some statistics in case anyone wants to point to my past actions :mischief:

In the mean time, your wars have been quite effective in furthering the goals of the roman people :p

Oh, and I still have a pretorian left just for you :ninja:

Mauer
Oct 15, 2006, 08:50 AM
BC warred with Daveshack, grs, and Dave. I think that has him at 3. First with grs, then with Daveshack, then with grs and Dave.

GeorgeOP
Oct 15, 2006, 08:54 AM
Doesn't everyone remember George, Sigma, Tubby, and Robboo vs. Kuningas (with "secret" help from Robi_D) -> RIP Kuningas

And Hmmm, Robi_D then attacks Sigma, Tubby and George. Anyone see a pattern? <cough, cough>

But that brings my count up to 4. Killed Kuningas, was part of everyone and got tricked into attacking Dave, took a city from Sigma since everyone else was also, then got dragged into Tubby and Robi's spitball war and it cost my my empire.

Well my 5 are correct although nearly everyone else has 1 less then actual.

Also i missed it orignally but just before the grs-dave vs everyone george sigma and robboo took out kuningas so there totals are 2 less.

The pretorian should have fun against the infantry;)

Although I wasn't involved in it, I'd say it wasn't getting dragged into it. I'd say your diplomatic posture dragged you into the war that cost you your empire....ie Defensive alliance and your stance towards techs. Not saying your a bad guy or anything :) , just looking at what (from my POV) got you into the war. I could be wrong though :cool:

Whomp
Oct 15, 2006, 12:47 PM
I think the breakdown occurred when you guys bailed on the war with Dave, which was fine, but then refused to give techs to the east.

I had two wars.
The war of the titans (aka Davids vs. Goliaths War) in the Grs and Davemcw wars. No major benefits but created the second war.
The second war will be known as the "one week war against the east" where I lost some cannons and got 5 cities. :D

RegentMan
Oct 15, 2006, 03:57 PM

also i fought with theoden briefly against Dave...it was only a few turns

I fought against Matrix, russia pre-kuningus(stole worker), DaveMcW, kuningus, DaveMcW/grs, Tubby and now i am Robi's vassal.

If any one sent diplo in game...i missed a few tursn due to a harddrive dying due to the movers(my excuse) so send them again.

robboo

Well you know you've made in civ when everyone wants to see you dead:lol:

While i'm flattered by your homicidal feelings towards me i don't think they are that warranted, it not like i'm running away with the game. So i'm curious as to what your seeing that i'm not.

Personally i feel i've punched above my weight a little bit because i had no previous reputation so no one was looking at me. I was able to get away with i few things i wont be in the future because i'm sure people will pay me some attention but i'm not in the DaveMcW club of EVERYONE wants to see dead before a turn is played.

robboo
Oct 16, 2006, 08:02 AM

Time to break out in song again...

It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?...

It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood,
A neighborly day for a beauty.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?...

I've always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

So, let's make the most of this beautiful day.
Since we're together we might as well say:
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?
Won't you please,
Won't you please?
Please won't you be my neighbor?

Robi-There's still time to add me as a second Vassal.

Although I wasn't involved in it, I'd say it wasn't getting dragged into it. I'd say your diplomatic posture dragged you into the war that cost you your empire.... I quit against Dave since all of my neighbors quit. I needed to run my troops back down to my lands. Besides, because they were following non-French soldiers, I only had 4 troops left when everyone started declaring peace. I wasn't going to keep going alone in a war on the other side of the world with not many troops while my neighbors sent troops back towards my side of the world. And Tubby helped me out when I had RL personal issues (retook a city the AI took from me and gifted it to me). I gave him a favor back when Robi was eyeballing Tubby's land, and that got me into their war.

Glad one of my plans is working:D

@George For you to be my second vassal i would actually need to have a first one. Don't let Robboo fool you he just saying that so that other wont attack him in fear on getting me upset. The fact is Regentmans given me more stuff then Robboo (Yes Dave i've been taking from your vassal from under your nose:p )

@Whomp My son could run rings around dinsog, that had nothing to do with luck, although i did have some. I guess based on that my next pitboss game i should be winning 5% battles all the time, or maybe i just haven't attacked enough people in this one hmmm...

EDIT: After all this time fending off the last attack, all he did was end up "upgrading" his enemy :lol:


Not so fast.... A number of your transit passes are invalid. Your troops will have to diver to the nearest Tranist pass sales point (post office, newsagency ect) before continuing.... or maybe we could arrange for a swapping of favours if you catch my drift:mischief:

Never said your going to stab someone in the back, but you seem willing to stab someone in the front.

You said yourself you attacked robboo because you thought you had no prior agreements with him, hence my previous comment that people will be checking whether or not they have prior agreements with you
Hmmm, now that I think about it. Do we have any official agreements :mischief:

The Greek Federal Republic is acting in the interests of regional security and stability.

Ha, you got a DP with Dave, how nice for you. Since i state yet again i have no intension of attacking that doesn't really bother me, since a DP becomes void after you attack someone.

I can only assume this late rush for land means your trying a domination victory. If thats the case then you better count your tiles again because your going to need to kill Whomp and Mauer too to get to that number. Even then you will more than likely be a percent or two short so you will need to take something off BC too, so you might as well declare war on them too while your at it.

Or maybe your just closing your eyes and hoping they don't notice what your doing before its too late for them.

The fact that i have recieved no 10 turn warning, or any warning at all for that matter means i can only assume your either full of hot air or your willing to break our agreement.

I need no time reconsidering my position to your bullying tactics, it stands as is, even firmer than before.

Thing is this.. You attack you get 2 enemies. We arent attackign you. You are teh aggressor. I know for a fact Dave wants no part in a war unless he has changed his mind. In addition you might be interest in knowing that Dave and I also have a non aggression pact. So we can keep the cold war up adn I Will stop open borders as soon as I am allowed. I want nothig nto do with your trade goods or civ. You bully tactics...wont win you this game. : ) You attack me and I will drag this war out so that you cant win...ask Robi how many turns I can drag a lost PBEM out.

Actually, my plan is to attack in order to gain a better position at stopping anyone else from winning. You know, just try and be the one who doesn't lose.

The fact that i have recieved no 10 turn warning, or any warning at all for that matter means i can only assume your either full of hot air or your willing to break our agreement.

I have no agreement with Robboo, if I declare on him then technically you are declaring on me, breaking your agreement. I'm not sure which agreement you're talking about anyway.

Which one are you talking about? With your guys walking in my territory with an open borders I cant close becasue of your "accidental" declaration of war. Kinda makes me think about how much I can trust you.

I still think your "accidental " declaration was a rouse to aid mauers mistaken war. :) And then you reopened borders( as a sign of good faith) imediately and then with in 1 turn told me you were going to attack...thereby stoppign me from being able to stop your troop transport thru my area(unless i declare)...pretty underhanded abuse of the game code. how about you pull those troops back out till we can close borders or establish a deal. Sign of good faith.
I will not have diplomatic discussions with your troosp in my area. end of discussion till they are out...

Robi he could be using my area to move troops to your Western flank. As I have sadi here..he doesnot have my permission to do it but i cant stop him.
