Please use the "title" part of your instruction post to state your office title.

Objective: My intention is to play up to 15 turns, barring something unusual, so please try to have instructions for that length.

Only elected/appointed officials or citizens posting initiative instructions should post in this thread!

Please use the DP thread in the Government subforum for questions/comments to the DP. Please use the officials' thread for comments to an official

NoneOfTheAbove
Prioritize growth until max. happiness is reached. Build barracks, chariot, settler.

Stop when we discover Alphabet!
Stop if someone declares war on us.

i was wondering if you guys needed maps even if only 2 turns were played last turnchat. I didnt publish any because i thought it was pointless for only 2 turns

Continue with orders form last turn...

Build Queue
Continue with current build queue, with Barracks added to the end, don't expect to start work on Barracks this session though.

Working Tiles
After growth begin working the Gold tile directly to the NE which should have been recently mined by the Workers currently there.


/if we need a worker or settler some one let me know. We can provide them once we get a decent population.

Sorry guys, but I'm going to have to reschedule the TCIT. The internet is down, so I have no access at home. Odd thing is, my provider Emparq hi-speed is saying that most of Missouri will be down until 12:52 pm. I'm currently at the library in order to let everyone know. They charged me $2 to replace my library card!

I can try again this afternoon when it comes back up, but until it does I have no idea what time I'll be able to play. Is that allowed? Can I just get online and state I'm going to play in the next hour? If not, I'll reschedule until tomorrow.

:woohoo:

Internet is back up and just in time! I'll give everyone a few minutes to see if anyone shows.

Current instructions:

I'm posting on behalf of Robboo, since it seems he's out today, and we are nearing 24 hours before the game session. Should Robboo post instructions in time, please disregard my instructions and use his.

I renamed the new chariot to Chariot #2. He still has full movement.
NotA will grow in 1 turn, so I suggest putting the settler off for one turn to allow the additional growth.

Roman city of Lyons is founded:
Why did Caesar found the city of Lyons and then gift it to the French? And where did his settler come from? :lol:

It looks like our trading options are few. Discussion is needed.

Edit: Could you please post a screenshot of our tech tree?

Do you have a chatlog? Just curious if anyone showed up after I left.

No, I don't. Ice showed up briefly, but had to leave as well. In other words the chatlog became nothing but "Turn X ending, pressing enter."

Chieftess will probably have a log. I might also, don't remember if mIRC was left running that day or not.

I think it's already time for a science office that would publish tables of possible trades no?
