This is a Graveyard of Infants!

i dont know if its just cause its the summer, but...

more then half of the NESs on this forum die on like the 3rd turn.
i dont know what killed some of the first ones, and the ones i aint been in.

i have been in 6 nes that died WAY too early:

-Troqs Crusade NES (i dont even know why this one died, think it was too big)
-WarlordMatts FANNES (matt went on vacation on turn 3)
-Erics ENES (Eric's away, its very unlikely that it will continue when eric gets back)
-Jasons Civil war NES (got too tough for jason to mod since a lot of people werent sending in orders)
-UKNES3 (it went for about 15 turns i think, then died in the middle of a war)
-Jasons FAN NES (on turn 2 i think, jason got in over his head )

is it just my perseption or are we as a group not able to keep a comitment.
i can understand the mods who start a nes but then cant mod it cause its WAY bigger then they expected.
i can NOT understand starting a game 2 turns before you go away (though i think that they were suprise RL things, so i guess thats unavoidable)
i REALY CANT understand the players that join a game and then dont send orders. i could list 2 pages worth of people for this. In some cases taking good countries in the beggining of a NES and then disappearing off the face of the planet.

Thank god for SKILORD taking over UKNES4 or i would have quit this forum alltogether and went to find some Diplomacy forum somewhere that finishes its games.

sorry to whine like this, but its gotten to the point where its rediculus.
when i first started joining NESs i would print out the maps, now i dont want to waste the paper cause its likely to end in a day or two.

way to say it, Roddy! I no I should not have stopped Moding my NES's,. but too many people were not cooperating, and plus I had school.

We are lucky that Skilord is taking UKNESIV, but I still do not see people doing much on the thread!

Hmm...

Maybe I shouldn't say this, cause with college coming up I may not have time for it, but if college doesn't take up as much of my time as I think it will, then I may make a UKNESV.

Expect a true combat system on the UKNES3 map(but the edited one) and with UKNESIV type units.

Basically, it'll be a big undertaking for me, but less so than the UKNESV, as the main problem with that one was orders weren't PMed, making life more difficult.

Anyway, I'm considering the possibilities, and am currently making a map for the UKNESIV.

Hello. I have been "lurkin" on the CFC forums for a while now reading the Civ Stratigies threads, but I just discovered the NES subforum. It looks very interesting. I am thinking of starting a NES myself, if anyone is up for a new one. I will use Skilord's world map. There will be 10 players or so. How's it sound?

Im not away. I never said so. I just said i would have little free time, and stop calling me eriC. Now send in your orders for my ENES and be quiet.

Nice Tolkien refrence.

Maybe we would be interest. ya gonna have to give us more then that. Like unit description and rules. And maybe you should get on when UK is here and/or Skilord and talk about moding so you know enough to decide wither or nor you want to mod and if you can handle it. Those are the two expreinced mods i know get on here regularly at the moment and i am sure they will be helpful.

PS. If you want to join the games going have room. There is plenty in UKNESIV and i think the enes has room and of course the uber has room. Just go check them out and see if you can join. Just don't drop it to soon please.

oh, sorry bout that Erik. just that post you put up about "pausing" the game, i just assumed you were unavailable for a while.

Thank god for SKILORD taking over UKNES4 or i would have quit this forum alltogether and went to find some Diplomacy forum somewhere that finishes its games.

Click to expand...

gee i feel bad now.

but frankly i can't handle it anymore.

at least i'm leaving uber... that's hard enough.

ot:

Yes i've noticed this too, that's why i refered to UKNES and uberrnes as the pillars. i tried to crush em both but hadn't the heart.
