FionnMcCumhall Nov 19, 2002, 12:24 AM Im curious to try and play a good game against the human players :) Jon up if you want to play game starts on wednesday.
Im guessing to keep emails safe you can pm me or hit me on AIM.
Fionn696 is my aim handle
Ill be playing as the celts
Plexus Nov 19, 2002, 12:25 AM I'm in... (obviously).
Essex Nov 19, 2002, 11:17 AM I'm always up for another PBEM :)
I'd like the persians if you are letting us pick civs.
Email: PM'd to you.
donsig Nov 19, 2002, 11:48 AM I'm in. BTW, Plexus, did you take your turn in gunning's PBEM?
I'd like to play the Arabs. :)
Toasty Nov 19, 2002, 12:13 PM I will hop in as the Russians. E-Mail is PMed...
FionnMcCumhall Nov 19, 2002, 01:47 PM do we have any map, difficulty ideas for the game? i was thinking regent and largfe map if we get more players standard. What do you think?
jshelr Nov 19, 2002, 02:07 PM I emailed you and will join if there is another slot. Thanks. Large map may take forever, but small map might be ok. Most are playing tiny.
Plexus Nov 19, 2002, 04:43 PM BTW: I'll be Japan.
donsig Nov 19, 2002, 05:28 PM Any size map or difficulty is fine with me. :) Will this be a classic civ3 game? If so, which victory conditions will be on?
FionnMcCumhall Nov 20, 2002, 12:52 AM yes it will be a classic with all victory condistions i think unless someone wants something kicked off
Toasty Nov 20, 2002, 10:41 AM Small would be good. Does difficulty matter all that much? It looks like we'll have all human players...
Eli Nov 20, 2002, 10:55 AM Me too!
shadowmn_@netvision.net.il
(without the _)
I'd like to play with the Ottomans.
Toasty Nov 20, 2002, 01:28 PM So, uh, what is it we're waiting for, precisely?
Octavian X Nov 20, 2002, 07:30 PM Of course, your waiting for me to join!
I wanna be Carthage!
FionnMcCumhall Nov 20, 2002, 11:29 PM your waiting on me :)
FionnMcCumhall Nov 20, 2002, 11:58 PM game has started :D
Eli Nov 21, 2002, 06:40 AM What's the playing order?
Essex Nov 21, 2002, 10:13 AM Fionn could you please send an email out with a subject something like Fionn's PBEM and containing the email address of everyone who is in the game.
Once we are able to conduct diplomatic negotiations this will come in very handy.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 21, 2002, 11:00 AM i gave it in the zip file i sent along, hopefully is coming around the same way :). and playing order is pretty much around how everyone signed up
donsig Nov 21, 2002, 12:00 PM The Arab settlers move south...
I e-mailed the save to Toasty - I think he follows me!?!

Can you make an ordered list with everyone's names, civilizations and email adresses?
Toasty Nov 21, 2002, 04:11 PM Game saved and sent to Essex (he's the next one on the player list so :crazyeye: ).

Tis already done :)
Essex Nov 21, 2002, 06:40 PM Someone along the way forgot to attach the original zip file so I don't have anyone's contact info. Most importantly I don't have the email address of the next player: jshelr.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 21, 2002, 06:55 PM doh ill send it :)
Essex Nov 21, 2002, 08:05 PM Thanks fionn, turns on to jshelr.
jshelr Nov 21, 2002, 08:07 PM I'm in the same sad shape as others. I've done my turn but don't know where to send the file. We will need a complete email list to do diplomacy later anyway.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 21, 2002, 08:57 PM get the emails here

jshelr Nov 22, 2002, 10:15 AM thanks for the list fionn
game is on to eli
Eli Nov 22, 2002, 11:22 AM Sent to Octavian X.
Eli Nov 23, 2002, 04:09 AM Can we get this going a bit faster?
FionnMcCumhall Nov 23, 2002, 01:37 PM im still waiting on the save to come to me
FionnMcCumhall Nov 23, 2002, 05:42 PM hey octavian your holding us up here man :)
FionnMcCumhall Nov 25, 2002, 05:10 AM How is the game going for you guys?
Eli Nov 25, 2002, 06:45 AM I sent Octavian the savegame again. Maybe he didnt notice or something.
donsig Nov 25, 2002, 07:52 AM Sorry for holding things up. I went to Toronto and Orillia this weekend. Didn't see a computer for two days. :D
game e-mailed to Toasty.
Here's a look at Arabia:
Eli Nov 25, 2002, 09:51 AM Everyone :
POST when you send the game, this way we can now who has it now, and if there is a problem with the email the next player will be able to see it earlier.
Toasty Nov 25, 2002, 02:05 PM Russians dedicate all funds to scientific progress, hoping to discover Ceremonial Burial before too much longer.
Czarina Toasty saves the game and sends it off to Persia :p.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 25, 2002, 03:52 PM i did that too but ive already got cerimonial burial :D
FionnMcCumhall Nov 25, 2002, 04:23 PM we got a chatroom as well in case some of are on for diplomacy and such just open up your irc client and go to #fionnsgame
Essex Nov 25, 2002, 05:08 PM Thats mountainous teritory the arabs are stuck in :)
Turn passed on to jshelr.
Eli Nov 26, 2002, 06:27 AM Sent to Octavian X.
Octavian X Nov 27, 2002, 12:32 AM 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. :(
FionnMcCumhall Nov 27, 2002, 03:00 AM well hmm i dont think we can drop players in the game. Eli send me the save and then ill see what i can do about dropping octavian from the game
Eli Nov 27, 2002, 05:09 AM Sent.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 27, 2002, 11:13 PM I think we are gonna have to start over, fortunatly we havent gotten too deep into the game to be a big diffrence. What do you guys think?. Reason why - Cant boot octavian from the game cuz i cant find the admin option
Eli Nov 28, 2002, 12:44 AM Did you try to type the admin password instead of his?
FionnMcCumhall Nov 28, 2002, 01:10 AM yup i tried everything. even a thread in the MP part of this forum, i dont think anyone else knows how to access the admin functions
donsig Nov 28, 2002, 08:46 AM Well, since Arabia is full of mountains I certainly don't mind starting over. :)
Chieftess Nov 28, 2002, 09:16 AM Fionn, I just figured it out. All you do is open that player's save, type in the admin password, and you can give them a new password.
FionnMcCumhall Nov 28, 2002, 10:13 AM i need to kick them out of the game. not have them continue know what i mean
FionnMcCumhall Nov 29, 2002, 11:23 PM when it comes to octavians turn send the save to me. Ill retire him from the game so we can continue
donsig Nov 30, 2002, 12:58 PM Game sent to CivGeneral. :)
The Arabs have finally come down from the mountains...
jshelr Dec 02, 2002, 02:11 PM Hello out there, anybody home??

CG isnt in this game donsig lol, you mean toasty since he comes after you lol
donsig Dec 02, 2002, 03:08 PM oops! No wonder we're dragging here. I will send this to Toasty ASAP.
FionnMcCumhall Dec 03, 2002, 07:05 PM ok who is slowing down the game now?
Octavian X Dec 04, 2002, 09:18 PM Is it too late to join back in? Please?
FionnMcCumhall Dec 04, 2002, 10:16 PM i dont even know where to game is. If it doesnt come around in the next 2 days im gonna cancel this game and start over with a new one
Plexus Dec 06, 2002, 02:01 AM Well, I don't have it
Eli Dec 06, 2002, 03:36 AM Me neither.
jshelr Dec 06, 2002, 09:27 AM I don't have it either. Eli has been regular as clockwork in other games registering his turns. When you do that, then you know where the game is.
Especially in the early going, there can be problems without anyone knowing they are responsible for the problems. Registering the turns would let us quickly know where to look.
FionnMcCumhall Dec 06, 2002, 01:01 PM I think ill start the game over. New thread and all. PM me to let me know if your still interested in playing a game
Chieftess Dec 06, 2002, 01:47 PM Ok, thread closed.
