2nd Agent Orange PBEM game

[anarres]

Clint emailed me yesterday and said that when he opened the game and ended the turn it moved on to the next player.

I emailed back and said to exit to the PTW main menu to load PBEM games, so we should see some movement on this today...

 

[ProPain]

Maybe end of turn wait is off and he has no workers/warriors to move.

That would mean his turn ends immediately but nothing is wrong.

 

[anarres]

Sorry - should have been clearer. He said it actually let him play as the other players...

Sounded like he opened it from within another game which a known problem.

 

[ProPain]

Ok people, I mailed everyone on monday and got 3 reactions out of 7. For me this means the majority isn't interested any more. No hard feelings, the game had just started anyway.

Here's what I'm gonna do : Kill this one, start a new one (is it that simple, you ask me? Yes it is!). Nice fringe benefit from restarting: we can have harder AI's now!

So the 2nd Agent Orange game is reborn and will now be known as Agent Orange game 2B (or not 2b that is the question! How apropriate).

I'm taking entries again. plz react if you wanna rejoin but only if your serious.

THE KING IS DEAD, LONG LIVE THE KING!

propain: didn't get your email

that is IIRC.....

 

[ProPain]

LOL

I'm sure you got it Killer, you even replied to it! (20/1/03 15:36 CET, you answered me)

But please rejoin.

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

what?


I am too busy


Yes I re-join, do you have a thread yet?

 

[anarres]

Me in.

I think you are right to restart ProPain.

 

[Kemal]

I'll play again too, hope my starting location won't force me to rename my capital again.

Are we going to change our tribes too? I'd like to change mine to Russia, if possible. If we're going to have AI's I vote to make it hard for us and set difficulty to deity,emperor. (And also if we don't have AI because it will make research harder).

 

[anarres]

Kemal - the human difficulty appears to be Regent when this methd is used to set the AI difficulty.

In my game with ERIKK the research at least appears to be higher than cheiftain, but not as high as deity.

I am using Grey Fox's tech calc to compare tech prices as they should be and what we get in the game.

Edit: The really weird thing though is that the citizen happiness is definately cheiftain. Very weird. I will know more in a few turns...

 

[Matrix]

Never mind about me in this game. All the PBEM's in my sig got a certain significance for me, but not the second and third Dutch PBEM's.

But have fun nevertheless!

 

[ERIKK]

I will join again!

 

[ProPain]

Ok, there are 5 of us now, I'll wait untill around 21:00 CET (app. 3 hours from now) and then I'll fix us up a new game and a new thread.

Considering there are 5 of us I'd say we play without AI's. Would be to much of a difference having AI neighbours or not. If people wanna change civ that's ok with me, just post in this thread. I'll try to set difficulty higher anyway so we have less happy citizens.

 

[col]

I'm in for another pbem game if there's room

Babs or random please

 

[Plux]

I'd like to join too if I'm still in time before the deadline

 

[ProPain]

I'm gonna start it now, Col and Plux you're both on time

 

[ProPain]

I used the bug: loading a game from the menu in a game instead of frmo the main menu to obtain this map.
