Sorry! I've been MIA in pretty much all my games. I'm afraid you'll have to skip me in pretty much all of them. The RL events that kept me from Civ before have still not resolved themselves. Unfortunately, this has been an extremely complicated and emotionally draining process. I hope that...

Hold on, Ozy. Shadow, was your most recent post a "got it"? If you don't respond tomorrow, I will grab the game and play.

:lol: :love: I would claim "got it" immediately just so I could respond in kind to meldor's hilarious summary, but I still have too much RL stuff to deal with. :( Maybe if the game is still available tomorrow . . .

Got it. (BTW meldor, I'm starting to wonder if you're a masochist because of your seeming love of the Prod :whipped: :) )

I've been dealing with some rather monumental personal events over the past week, so if I have stalled any SG's during my absence, I'd like to officially apologize. You can now put me back on the rotation.

Unless you guys are willing to wait at least 24 hours if not more, skip me, too. If you are willing to wait, I do have the save. See my post in the "just win" thread for more specific details on my current situation.

Sorry for never getting a turn summary posted. I had some very surprising (to say the least) personal events over the weekend, and have been dealing with those since. I haven't had time to check the boards, write a summary, or basically do anything else besides deal with these personal...

Amazing how the work piles up when you're sick for a protracted period of time. Since it's still early in this one, I DID manage to get my turns in, but no summary until tomorrow.

???? I've played as the Greeks before and I was able to upgrade to muskets. Maybe you just didn't have enough money at the time. Either that, or you were trying to upgrade in a city without a barracks (in most of our SG's we've had Sun Tzu, so that would be an understandable mistake)...

Apparently the save file didn't post. Sorry, Arathorn!

Inherited turn: Wow, all these cities, and yet no temples? We've got to change that! We also need libraries, cathedrals, universities . . . ZAP! Oh, thanks meldor. Guess I haven't played this one in a while. Well, might as well renegotiate a couple deals. Oh, and I should build a...

"How dare they!" Schnarrd shouts. "Those unwashed fools!" "It's true, sir. The Romans have less culture than us." "But how does that relate to Schmutzig?" "Well, sir, they say that the Roman leader, Caesar, being even less cultured than the Cretans, smells even worse than Schmutzig...

In a bedroom at Foul Odors, a page gently shakes the sleeping figure of Schnarrd. Schnarrd stirs, snorts, rubs his nose, then abruptly comes awake. "Hey, shouldn't Schmutzig be ruling instead of me?" he demands. "I don't want to rule. I'm still recovering from laryngitis." "Sir, the...

We got a GL?! [dance] [party] Predictable. They were coming after us. Looks like there will be more than one civ making an early exit this game. ;) Got it.

Got it.

If someone's dropping out of this game, you might want to post in the main "competitors" thread notifying the other teams - remember, right now they can't look at your thread.

Believe me, this had nothing to do with the laryngitis. Let's just call it a belated April Fool's joke and leave it at that. ;)

Yep, that was the highlight of an otherwise dull turn. Cleo is now in bed with Mao. She allied against us! In response, I got Cathy to ally against Cleo for furs. May Cleo be scr*wed like the, uh, loose woman she is. Neither Cleo nor Cathy have rubber, although there is a source unconnected...

Ah, so this will be a legitimate Formerly Known! Myself, I think that if Japan is totally blocked in, war with them will be unavoidable. If that's the case I agree with meldor that a prudent build up would be advisable. However, while we are (temporarily) at peace, we should at least...

Yes, playing now. (If you've been following CC1, you know what a rough week I've had. You guys could have skipped me, but apparently everybody's been pretty busy!)
