View Full Version : "New Tribes" PBEM joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 06:28 PM A merciful mod would strike dead this mostrosity of a thread... ;) KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 06:33 PM I would like to play. However since there are so few PBEMs right now i think that I should give someone esle a shot. If it is not filled in 24hrs. sign me up. The more PBEMs the better. cgannon64 Nov 01, 2002, 06:55 PM I'm in. I'd like either Korea or Ottoman, preferably Korea (I have yet to try out those potentially amazing Hwach'as). This makes my second PBEM, and I have three SGs on top of that. But, the more civving the better! CG mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 06:57 PM Aloha, I'll play if there is room. I'll take the Celts as I might as well be true to my heritage... :) .... If that is full, I'll take the Spanish. I'll keep checking the board. KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 07:02 PM I've changed my mind. Screw everone else;). I'll be the ottomans. EDIT: forgot second choice. How about the scandinavians joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 07:02 PM :rotfl: DukEngnr Nov 01, 2002, 09:07 PM Is there room for 1 more? I'm interested in doing a PBEM. I'll take whatever's left :) 1.) Vikes 2.) Celts Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 09:08 PM Is this game running yet? God help me trying to keep track of both while I'm sipping this stuff (Jameson's) but I AM tempted... Ottomans, Koreans, Celts or Spanish. cgannon64 Nov 01, 2002, 09:10 PM Originally posted by Richard III Is this game running yet? God help me trying to keep track of both while I'm sipping this stuff (Jameson's) but I AM tempted... Ottomans, Koreans, Celts or Spanish. I hope so. I'm sneaking in some Civ time while my mom sleeps, wired on a pack of Oreos! Lets get civving! CG mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:05 PM Keep me in the loop. now I have two windows to refresh.... :) ... joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:11 PM :lol: You silly kids! I havent even begun this one yet! :lol: I will start it now, since Pioneer is done for the night. Actually, if Richard would do the honors, I will take my last turn in pioneer. :) @DukEngnr - Can you play tonight? Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:18 PM I'm here, I'm in, I'm ready to play. R.III mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:23 PM Here and ready for a Gaelic Time... :) Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:26 PM Joe, did you mean that I should do the honors on STARTING the game? Or are you handling that? Just curious before I wander off and make some of that coffee stuff myself... R.III EDIT: HOLY frick, my post count is up to 2078!! When did that happen? joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:26 PM OK, its us three. Everyone else has gone. Richard, would you like to start it? Mauiduck wanted Celts. I'll take Carthage. Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:27 PM Done. I'll reverse the order - Mauiduck will get it next. Should be about two minutes. I will do the same specs as the other game. R.III joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:31 PM Cool. Lets have all 8 new civs too. Maybe we three can team up against the five AI. :mwaha: joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:35 PM I still have PTW running in the background. It saves time switching back and forth. Very nice. CFC is speeding up again, now that people are leaving for the night. Saturdays and Sundays are usualy lower traffic, making weekends a good time to play. mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:38 PM The Ai is like a retarded person who hates you and long have my people plotted for their revenge... :) .. Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:38 PM Mauiduck has it - or should. I went with Korea to be different. "When two tribes go to war, one is all that you can score..." For once, a majority of people on this thread will know what I'm talking about :lol: R.III EDIT: I genuinely guffawed out loud at that bit about "my people," Maui! joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:39 PM HEY CHIEFTESS! ...I was just seeing if you were still here... :mischief: mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:39 PM Got it..one sec...hold it, hold it... heh Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:42 PM Originally posted by joespaniel HEY CHIEFTESS! (echo echo echo echo.....) Any of you guys see "in the company of men?" Something about the tone in Joe's post reminds me of it... R.III Chieftess Nov 01, 2002, 10:43 PM Hi. :) Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:45 PM Subtle! ;) Chieftess Nov 01, 2002, 10:45 PM Originally posted by Richard III (echo echo echo echo.....) Any of you guys see "in the company of men?" Something about the tone in Joe's post reminds me of it... R.III :hmm: mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:45 PM Ok...who do I send this too? Richard? joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:45 PM Sorry...it would be me. :p mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 10:48 PM Well off to Richard if it goes that way great and sorry for sneding you the file joe. Anyway all I can say about me Celts is happy days, oh happy days... :) ... joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:49 PM I have no save file yet. :mischief: Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:53 PM Originally posted by Chieftess :hmm: You have to have seen it to know what I mean. It was a very controversial independent film, one of the first to win Sundance. Aaron Eckhardt's first big role. Eckhardt plays this evil bastard who is brutal to everyone, including this deaf woman who he and his partner in crime set up in this vicious way. But the point of the flick is that audiences largely found Eckhardt to be charismatic and attractive no matter how disgusting and evil he actually was behind the scenes, hence "in the company of men" - the suggestion being that men largely got away with being bastards because that's what's expected of them. At one point in the flick, Eckhardt's character had just learned that the woman in question was deaf, didn't believe it, and so he sneaks into her office right behind her and shouts "HEY!" at the top of his lungs. No response - except from baffled office workers across the hall, who tiptoe out to try to figure out what the hell is going on. Make sense now? And I just wanted to take this carefully moderated moment to say that for me, the real moment when I know I've got my money's worth from PTW will be the moment I hit the key to lock in my first autobombard on a human city. :D (no irony intended) R.III joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:53 PM Originally posted by joespaniel I have no save file yet. :mischief: Ditto. :mischief: joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 10:55 PM Originally posted by joespaniel I have no save file yet. :mischief: Still dont. :mischief: Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 10:57 PM Lost in the pacific joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:00 PM Richard, did he send it to you by mistake? Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:01 PM Or perhaps Maui's out with a little bout of Kamehameha's Revenge? Where TF is it? I'm biting my nails here! EDIT: :mischief: (I felt left out) joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:03 PM mauiduck, you will have to send me the save file again, I dont have it. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:04 PM @ Richard - :rolleyes: ;) Sullla Nov 01, 2002, 11:05 PM Enormously entertaining discussion you have going on here. Despite dozens of posts, there's been a total of what, maybe 3 or 4 turns played so far? :lol: I'll check back in a couple hours when I go to sleep and there will be another 8 pages on this thread. :crazyeye: Makes me want to run out and buy PTW right now, if electronics stores were open at midnight... Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:06 PM Originally posted by joespaniel @ Richard - :rolleyes: ;) While you were busy spamming, I was busy searching CFC. Seems our friend is no longer in the forum... R.III joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:07 PM mauiduck isnt in the forum, he must have got kicked off-line. @ Sulla - Youre welcome. ;) joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:08 PM Well, thats it for me. Lets call it a night my friend. See you in Pioneer tomorow? :) Chieftess Nov 01, 2002, 11:11 PM Originally posted by Richard III While you were busy spamming, I was busy searching CFC. Seems our friend is no longer in the forum... R.III I was talking with Gonzo in #civfanatics. :D mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:15 PM OK I sent it again, but just iun case I will also post to here as well..http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/New Tribes-1.SAV joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:15 PM "404 not found" on your link. No e-mail either. Copy this: removed I'll get the file out of the uploads. Back in 5. mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:16 PM Dang naming conventions...try this link..http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/New_Tribes-1.SAV Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:19 PM What a spam pit. :p Chieftess Nov 01, 2002, 11:21 PM Rename .SAV to .sav. I think the forum has problems with caps. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:21 PM Got it via e-mail. Back in 5. mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:24 PM Try this...http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/New_Tribes-1.sav joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:25 PM Richard - I e-mailed the save to you. I moved settler one space, no city yet. Possibly a bad starting position. KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:31 PM Argh... i knew i shouldn' have let my sister use the computer. KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:32 PM Hey how many turns have you guys played, maybe you can start a new game for me:) Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:33 PM Apparently one. :p mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:33 PM Is it possible to edit an AI civ and let you play it...I have an awesome starting position... :) joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:33 PM edit: I apologize. Richard had it, and we are going forward. mauiduck, check your e-mail mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:34 PM otherwidse if eceryone else wants to retsart I am hip with that too,,, :) Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:35 PM No, guys, stop being so pessimistic. We're on round IV, not round I! ( :lol: ) Look, I'd love to break in and hand you a civ, Nick, but I'll be damned if I can figure out how quite yet... R.III Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:36 PM I'll play if you guys do restart. :) KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:36 PM I demand a restart;) joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:37 PM Originally posted by Trip What a spam pit. :p Like you arent helping. :p ;) mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:38 PM got it...back in 5 Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:40 PM Ok. One, people who accuse us of being an inefficient spam pit don't get to play. Two, people who let their sisters use the computer don't get to play :p And I am taking my ball home. Seriously, if people really want to restart, say so, but I have this crazy pair of ideas: 1 - wouldn't it be nice to see a game (ANY game) get beyond 4 turns? 2 - if we do, it's going to be a VERY SMALL continent, dammit! 3 - better yet, why don't you two (Nick? Trip?) figure out how I can break you in, and then I'll do it? I hope I'm sounding helpful here... R.III Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:40 PM Originally posted by GrandMasta Nick I demand a restart;) Let us unite! :D joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:42 PM Originally posted by Richard III 3 - better yet, why don't you two (Nick? Trip?) figure out how I can break you in, and then I'll do it? I hope I'm sounding helpful here... R.III *applause* R III, R III, R III.... :D Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:42 PM If you guys want to restart that's fine, I'll join then. :) If not it's okay, it's my fault for not seeing the thread soon enough, but it would be fun to have 5 people. :p KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:43 PM 3 - better yet, why don't you two (Nick? Trip?) figure out how I can break you in, and then I'll do it? I've got the perfect idea. Joe and RIII stop playing the game and me and trip take thier spots. mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:44 PM OK here it is...it's also at http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/New_Tribes-3.sav if this is quicker. Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:45 PM Originally posted by GrandMasta Nick I've got the perfect idea. Joe and RIII stop playing the game and me and trip take thier spots. You're under the mistaken impression that I'm playing the game. R.III KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:45 PM It's not like I'm(let us play) forcing you to restart(let us play) but it is like trip said(letus play) five is better than three(LET US PLAY) joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:45 PM I have it. Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:47 PM :hammer: Restart!! Restart!! :hammer: :D What did you mean by breaking us in? KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:47 PM well fine then i guess i'll see you guys aroud 2 Eastern time tomorrow to get started on the Pioneer game. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:50 PM Richard - check your e-mail. Carthage founded, all is well. :D Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:50 PM In theory, I can kill a civ in mid-game. I have seen nothing in the manual about how I can REASSIGN a civ in mid-game. ? KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:50 PM Hey i just thought of somthing, if it were not for trip this forum would not even be here. So you must restart to pay omage to trip. and while you are at it add me to the game too. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:52 PM Originally posted by Trip What did you mean by breaking us in? I'm not 100% sure, but I think you can allow a human player to take over an AI civ. The reverse is deffinately possible. I just dont know how to do it. If we find out, you're both in. KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:54 PM Hey how do you guys feel about playing two games at once. This one and another with all five of us:) mauiduck Nov 01, 2002, 11:54 PM I'm in... KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:54 PM It would give you somthing to do in between turns. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:55 PM mauiduck - its better to just e-mail it. You dont have to upload the save. :) Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:55 PM Yes, it's possible. Now find out how! :hammer: :p KaNick Nov 01, 2002, 11:55 PM Ok i'll get the other one started if I can figure out how to. I lost the e-mail with your names so could you post them here? joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:56 PM AAAARRRRGH!!!! :hammer: OK, for christsake! Start a new frikin game already! Jon Shafer Nov 01, 2002, 11:57 PM Replace the **** with my forum name here (to prevent email bots from picking the address up ;)). ****GoT@hotmail.com Do we all have to be in the lobby to start a game? Richard III Nov 01, 2002, 11:58 PM I'm out for another game, don't include me!!!! To start, do the following: 1. open multiplayer 2. hit "location" until you reach "local games" in the box below 3. play with the menu as needed. be ready to write the proper names and adjectives and so on for each civ as you enter human players. 4. When all rules are checked (beware of the rules box, you need to scroll to see it all) and all civs entered, then "launch." Write passwords, play, save, etc. joespaniel Nov 01, 2002, 11:58 PM Just scrap this one, lets start a new one. 5 players, 3 AI and god help trip or nick if I run into them in the early game. :mad: ;) I'm kidding. joespaniel Nov 02, 2002, 12:00 AM Yeah, guys its been fun, but I'm out too. No hard feelings, but I had enough for one night. See ya tomorow in Pioneer. G'night. :) Richard III Nov 02, 2002, 12:01 AM Originally posted by joespaniel Yeah, guys its been fun, but I'm out too. No hard feelings, but I had enough for one night. See ya tomorow in Pioneer. G'night. :) Sorry, is that out on this game as well, or out of any additional games? Just kinda curious. R.III KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:04 AM Maui, you in? KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:05 AM If so what civs does everyone want? joespaniel Nov 02, 2002, 12:06 AM I need a break, my friend. We learned a few things, and had some fun. Lets stick to the pioneer game, its going well. I'll see you there tomorow. I'm going to do some reading and relax. 'night guys -joespaniel KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:07 AM see ya tomorrow, is anyone else too old to stay up past 12 in here;) KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:08 AM Trip, Maui? mauiduck Nov 02, 2002, 12:10 AM e-mailed. Also here.....http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/New_Tribes-4.sav mauiduck Nov 02, 2002, 12:11 AM Oh...well that was a fast exchange...sure I am in if you all are KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:13 AM OK then i think that i'll start a new thread for this one. Check the forum. Plexus Nov 02, 2002, 12:14 AM Hey guys, any room? I missed out on the pioneer one... KaNick Nov 02, 2002, 12:17 AM Head over to the addicted thread plexus Plexus Nov 02, 2002, 12:18 AM already did. cgannon64 Nov 02, 2002, 08:36 AM Am I up? Or have you completely forgotten about me...;)...Korea demands a leader! CG mauiduck Nov 02, 2002, 01:33 PM RIII says we lost Joe...I have saved the game and we can keep it going if you like. RIII has latest save. See you all over at the Pioneer PBEM... :) cgannon64 Nov 02, 2002, 10:24 PM Damn it! Pioneer has stalled for the night (RIII missing in action), this game is dead, and I missed Sultan's new one! I have no luck, and no use for this extra caffeine! CG cgannon64 Nov 07, 2002, 06:36 PM Can we revive this? I'd like to have three PBEMs going, not just Pioneer and TwoHeaded. :( CG Borealis Nov 07, 2002, 06:52 PM I'd like to try a PBEM, but there don't seem to be any open slots... if we could confirm people for a new game, I'll be in. Could you set up a new thread, and have the mods close this one? |
