[meldor]

I am back, please post a current roster and play order, thanks.

 

[Yaype]

Amirsan- On deck
Gingerbread Man- Didn't reply for last turn
Meldor- Gone for last turn, but has returned!
Yaype- Just played
6thGenTexan- Up now

 

[amirsan]

Ok, I'm back, (I was gone for two days) so 6gntxn, yes, you can take the save untill tommorrow.

 

[6thGenTexan]

Switch scientist to CoL. We do not need to research mysticism. Someone else will have it.

Change Newcastle to Galley from warrior...York to Harbor from Granary...Hastings to worker from warrior

900BC Scientist in Nottingham saves 2gpt

875BC Nothing

850BC Coventry completes first ship in the Mighty English Navy and heads out with the scout. [dance] Start working on a warrior to keep the peace when the town grows. Hastings worker-->worker
Taxman in Canterbury until temple completes.

825BC go 2W 1L against barbs

800BC despers barb camp in wasteland south of York...see nothing from galley around Coventry

775BC Hastings worker-->worker Nottingham settler-->settler move scientist to Canterbury

750BC Canterbury temple-->warrior...see border the the SE, sending scout/galley to it

730BC Coventry warrior-->galley Warwick worker-->temple

710BC despers barb camp in southern end of jungle and a galley on the way to our neighbors
sent galley from Newcastle out with a settler.

690BC Hastings is a slow worker factory, every 5 turns

The Settler in Newcastle can wait for a boat or start a city between there and York. The Warrior north of York is headed for a camp on the tip but has not moved to be a ble to defend better against the horse. I have workers building a road to warrwick who then can start clearing jungle. the other workers are building a road to Newcastle or building mines for London. The scout on the boat near our neighbor can hop off if you want.

Our Neighbors: The Celts. They have met the Germans. They are up BW,Mason,wheel,WC, and Myst but do not have MM. They have no extra wine, not that we have a save passage to them. The have 30g in the bank compaired to our 721g. But on the bright side, they have only theree cities out side their capital.

I'm leaving the next person with the fun of getting the most from what we've got. I'd start by buying the contact with gold to see which civ may be farther ahead in techs. Thein I woukd start with BW(possibly IW) and the Wheel to see what kind of resources we may have. Have fun Amirsan!

 

[amirsan]

Looks like some major brockering is needed . Ok I got it!

 

[Yaype]

Amirsan, are you going to be able to play your turn?

 

[amirsan]

I cant, my uncle said I cant play no games on the computer today Same was for yesterday . You guys could skip me if you want. I'm sure I'll be able to play tommorrow though.

 

[Yaype]

That's fine with me. We probably won't get back to me before I go on my little 9 day trip anyways. Speaking of which, I am leaving on Saturday morning (July 26th) to go visit some law schools, and I will be gone until August 3rd (Sunday a week and a half from now). I will continue commenting until I leave, and if it gets back to me before Saturday, I will play my turn, but otherwise, good luck with the game until I return.

 

[amirsan]

OK, no problemo .

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Sorry about my sudden departure, the internet died without notice. I will catch up on things now.

Same goes for the PBEM SG, I'm back into it (if it is still going)

 

[amirsan]

Its alright, your on deck, I'm going to play my turns today.

 

[amirsan]

You guys are going to have to just skip me, I have no chance of starting this Today or even tommorrow (Its my uncle's computer and today is his day-off ) So I will let you guys continue the game.

 

[Yaype]

GingerbreadMan, it looks like you are now up. Let's get this game going again (just in time for me to leave for 9 days ).

 

[amirsan]

There's a pretty big problemo with me,
My uncle said that the Civ3 Game is "messing up" his computer and that everytime I play, supposidly it crashes so I will have to be skipped until further notice. I'll still be commenting though

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Got it!

 

[meldor]

Any word Gingerbrean Man? Do you need skipped or can you post results?

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Oh, sorry, forgot completely!

I'll Do it right now!

EDIT: fileserver stuffing up...

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Now the fileserver is working again.

We build Liverpool, in the midst of jungle.
