gunning1 Nov 13, 2002, 03:34 PM Ok, we are ready, I'll start it soon. :)
What should our landmass, world size, water coverage, barbs, climate, temperature, age, and difficulty be?
Probably normal for all of them except barbs, size, and difficulty.
So what do you think?
Plexus Nov 13, 2002, 03:44 PM my Email is Enemysoldier88@yahoo.com
donsig Nov 13, 2002, 05:21 PM Mine is donalds@library.rochester.edu

I'm happy with any settings though the map size should correspond to the number of civs. We have 5 humans. Are we including any AIs? I prefer the middle range of difficulty but I'll play any level.
Plexus Nov 13, 2002, 06:35 PM You know what: Can I change my leader name to my own: "Plexus"? Thanks. :)
donsig Nov 13, 2002, 06:45 PM Let's decide on the settings so we can fire this one up!
FortyJ Nov 13, 2002, 07:16 PM My recommendations for world settings are:
Map Size: Standard (if we add comps for 8 total civs)
Small (if it's just us five...)
Barbarians: Random
Map Type: Random
Climate, Age, etc.: Random
Victory Conditions: classic Civ3 plus any of the new ones
(if so desired)
Accel Prod: Yes or No (doesn't matter to me)
donsig Nov 13, 2002, 07:23 PM I'd say no to accel prod. I like classic Civ3. :)
gunning1 Nov 13, 2002, 08:13 PM Ok, so standard map size, should we take out the AI first, and trade techs with each other, or should we be totally dependant upon ourselves? BTW, I'll have to start this tomorrow after school. :)
Octavian X Nov 13, 2002, 09:51 PM *Octavian sees a few Fanatikans here...*
Can I still join? Pretty Please?
donsig Nov 13, 2002, 10:08 PM Well, if we include the Donut Guy we'll have six humans. Why not just play without the AI? That would be very interesting... Every man for himself!
FortyJ Nov 13, 2002, 10:16 PM On Accel. Production
Yes, keeping it off does preserve the "classic" civ feel, but turning it on allows for shorter games which seems to be more practical in PBEM games. If we are able to each play an average of one turn per day, it will take 540 days to reach 2050AD. In other words, we would reach 2050 AD sometime in May of 2004!
On playing only humans...
I think that would be a very interesting game. Are there any other PBEM games with eight players yet? It could be a lot of fun. If we did this, we should also structure the order of players by what time of day they can play (ie, morning, evening, etc.) and require a certain time limit on moves, so that we don't end up waiting a week between turns.
donsig Nov 13, 2002, 11:25 PM Hey FortyJ, what makes you think we'd all last till 2050AD?
Well, I can usually play in the evenings, eastern US time. :)
Plexus Nov 13, 2002, 11:52 PM who said anything about 2500AD?:evil: :borg:
gunning1 Nov 14, 2002, 05:50 AM Ok, all I need is Octavians stats and all the stuff he wants. I'm going to school now, so I'll start it after school. :)
gunning1 Nov 14, 2002, 02:53 PM Ok, I can't start without Octavians Civ and other stuff...
Octavian X Nov 14, 2002, 04:07 PM I was at school too.. Ha!
Please chose Babylon for me.

Thanks for letting me in on such short notice...
donsig Nov 14, 2002, 07:01 PM I see you're on-line now gunning - how about firing this one up?
gunning1 Nov 14, 2002, 07:14 PM Ok, gonna start it right now. :)
Octavian X Nov 14, 2002, 07:40 PM Great! I'm ready and waiting...
donsig Nov 14, 2002, 07:47 PM Me, too! Let's meet in the chat rooms...
Plexus Nov 14, 2002, 08:08 PM alright, I'm ready
donsig Nov 14, 2002, 08:26 PM gunning had trouble starting it. I thought about starting it but CivGeneral said we should wait...
CivGeneral Nov 14, 2002, 10:02 PM Here is the current list of players in this PBEM game.
1. Gunning
2. Donsig
3. CivGeneral
4. FortyJ
5. Plexus
6. Octavian_X
The thread will be open for Diplomacy negotiation :).
Note: Due to privacy issues, I have remove the E-mails from this list.
donsig Nov 15, 2002, 06:53 AM Ok guys, who has the game!
Since this is regicide does that mean the only way to win is to kill off all the other kings?
FortyJ Nov 15, 2002, 08:53 AM Donsig
#1 - I sent the game off to Plexus late last night, and I believe he sent it off to Octavian as well.
#2 - Yes. Actually, it's not the only way, but it's the probably the best way :).
Plexus Nov 15, 2002, 04:17 PM yes, i sent to Octavian last night... not sure who has it.
Octavian X Nov 15, 2002, 04:44 PM I just finished my turn. The game has been sent to gunning1.
Also, you can rename your king. Now, instead of Hammurabi running around, it's Octavian.
:king:
gunning1 Nov 16, 2002, 09:53 PM Just sent it off...Now it's donsigs turn. :) He said he would play it tomorrow morning. :)
BTW, the first post is updated.
CivGeneral Nov 17, 2002, 07:10 PM Donsig sent it to me, then I playes my turn, and now it is 40J's turn :).
donsig Nov 19, 2002, 06:48 AM FortyJ, is it still your turn?
FortyJ Nov 19, 2002, 06:57 AM I sent the game to Plexus less than an hour after CG's post.
donsig Nov 19, 2002, 09:14 PM Gunning1 and I both played tonight. File sent to CivGeneral!
Matahma Dondhi continues to explore the world...
donsig Nov 21, 2002, 11:30 AM OK, who has the game?
CivGeneral Nov 21, 2002, 04:41 PM I had just sent the save to 40J :).
donsig Nov 25, 2002, 08:48 AM Anyone playing this one?
FortyJ Nov 25, 2002, 07:42 PM Good question, Donsig.
I got the save from CivGeneral and sent it on to Plexus on the 21st. Plexus, where are you?
Octavian X Nov 26, 2002, 11:34 PM My copy of Civ3 screwed up in an attempt to reinstall the game so that I could at least attempt to play an error free game of single player PTW. For the time being, I need to be dropped from the game.
Sorry. :(
donsig Nov 27, 2002, 02:36 PM Game e-mailed to CivGeneral. I did not use the new patch.
