Sorry for not posting screenshots, my taking program has expired..

Very nice Viz! Looks like our early war with Mongolia is paying off. We should own that whole land mass soon.

I believe SmellinCoffee is up... if he doesn't reply by this weekend we may need to consider him an autoskip.

Very well done!

Guys, I'm going to have to abandon ship on this one. I really want to play the new GOTM, and I have another game I want to get into. Both require patch 1.22. Unfortunately I don't have room do do a dual install. The way it looks, this game could take 6 months to complete. I really don't want to miss out on the games for that long.

Sorry,
Big Chief

I'm pretty sure this one is dead Big Chief. First the restart, and now even the creator hasn't posted in nearly a week. I'm not going to drop out, but I'm pretty sure I won't see another turn set here.

Hey, I'm here all the time (even if I don't post)... I don't see this game as "mine" even though I did start it. If nobody's interested enough in the continuation of the game to actually play and post, then as far as I'm concerned the game can just curl up and die...
Not saying that I'd like that to happen, but it's up to the group...
Sorry to see you leave bigchief... I can sympathize with your decision... I'm planning to patch the second this game and DGIT2 are both done... Not gonna join any other SGs till then...

Personally, I'm was kind of amused that I needed a skip for four or five days, and there wasn't a single post in the interim. I think I'm with you guys that this one has breathed its last gasp. I think the real downfall was the corrupt save. I know I kind of felt annoyed that we had worked so long and had to flush all of our progress.

If there is renewed interest, I'll keep the subscription for a while, but if not, then maybe I'll see you all in another SG sometime.

 

[SolarKnight]

Is this game still alive? I have sorted RL out and have time to play.

Anyone?

 

[SesnOfWthr]

It kind of seems like this one fell by the wayside.

Too many glitches, too many delays.

 

[Blasphemous]

Hmm... Oh well...
Once DGT2 is done, I will most likely start BLA2.
I want it to be a game on Rhye's excellent mod, Rhye's Of Civilization.
Stay tuned.

 

[Smellincoffee]

Back from vacation; most of you in DGT2, so you know why I wasn't able to say I was going anywhere. I've missed like a month of CFC.

 

[Vizurok]

Well, I'm not happy to see it... but OK.
May teh force be with you!

 

[Blasphemous]

I'll try and remember to make sure you all know of it when I launch BLA2... Whenever that happens.
