Apparently the Mad Scientists just met us. I'm a little confused as to when - presumably the end of last turn. The game's been down for the last two days, so maybe they're just extremely slow at writing messages?
Shall we accept open borders? Not really a big deal, and we'll seem a bit like a bunch of dicks if we don't. With the show of goodwill opening borders we might be able to press them slightly for some information about how far away and what direction they're in.
Do we want to set up a team email address for diplomacy, or just accept PM's on the forums? I'm very regular on CFC (as you may have noticed ), so I can post diplomacy very soon after we receive it. On the other hand though, a team email would ensure that everyone could access the diplomacy even if I was away for a day or something.
Can't log in to check, but it sounds like they've met us via exploring Work Boat and have run into our northern shore either from the east or the west. The wording could mean we're the first team they've met, but possibly not (vaguely recalling posts from the forum where I'm sure MS were talking about being delayed by diplomacy).HUSch said:Greetings people of the north! Our brave but very tired sailors are beside themselves with joy at finally seeing signs of civilization. They are eager to enjoy the hospitality of your shores, if you are willing to grant them safe passage through open borders. As you can see, their mission of discovery is entirely peaceful and therefore you have nothing to fear from granting them this boon.
Messages can be delivered to our diplomatic council via Team.Mad.Scientists@gmail.com. We hope to hear a response swiftly so that our sailors' voyage is not delayed.
Respectfully,
HUSch of the Mad Scientists
