[1.0.6.9] Pirates Scenario: In some games there's no floating text over units

[KyivanRusCivPlease]

I've noticed that in some multiplayer games, no floating text with earned points or 'piratey' phrases appears over respective units.
I might assume from my experience so far that when I create a multiplayer game, there is text, but when I join a game - there is none (except for showing earned gold).
