This is the ICQ active list for finding games that is sanctioned by CivFanatics. If you are looking for games you should join this list. So go today and join. ICQ Active List Number 117709262.To join the list you need to have ICQ 99b/2000a/2000b. But it's not availble on the Mac. Below are step-by-step instructions:

Switch to Advanced Mode in ICQ.
Click the button "ICQ", then move mouse to "Add / Invite Users" then left click on "Find / Add an ICQ ActiveList"
Then it will say search by ID. You will then enter "117709262" and click "Next" Then click "Add List" that should get you on.

The CivFanatics list was never on so I started a list that has been on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for a couple of weeks now. I called it the Civilization III Discussion Activelist which was also for scheduling MGE II games. There seems to have been some confusion over the name, so the name is just Civ II MGE Gamefind until Civilization III comes out.

It seems that some people who joined the list saw how well it was working but didn't like the original name (Civ III Discussion) and went and started their own list. This just defragments what we are trying to put back together. PLEASE everyone just use the Civ II MGE Gamefind active list so we can unify, otherwise it's a big mess. I have made Palehorse an administrator there too so you can contact him or myself if you have any questions.

I agree that there should be a single AL for MGE games. The question is, when Civ3 comes out is this going to stay a AL for Civ2 MGE or add on Civ3, or go over to Civ3 completely?

It will be up to the users but I think it would be good to be able to do both. Maybe after a while the list could commit to one or another. I will put it up to a vote when Civ III is released.

I, for one, view it as the "official" list.

Might I ask why?

The "CivFanatics MP City" was the offical list. It had 3 times as many members as Border's list (At that time, And still has 20 more even though it's been down for about 2 weeks)

Unfortunatally it will be down until August.....so Border's List has become the main list.

My ISP dropped my home connection sometime this afternoon while I was at work. This is why the ActiveList was down for a few hours. I apoligize for the inconvience this may have caused you.
