Well if we can play with v1.14, why not? :D

I guess you have to change the name of this PBEM game. ;)
 
I unfortunally cannot change thread names. Maybe a moderator can! ;) But I will change the first message of this thread. Also, I have sent an email with the winrar-file to Matrix (the straland account from your website) and Propain.

As soon as I hear from Kemal I'll sent it to him too. :D

Yea, I'm still a mod, but only of the GOTM forum. I'm not a super-mod. :p Never was.
 
I would like to join in.I'm not dutch,I'm English and live in Kent,does that disqaulify me?Just 1 or 2 questions,what level are you thinking of?What is direct IP?
I've PM'd Mercade asking for the 1.14f crack.The time differential is only 1 hour,so no problem there.I have won on Emperor level,only played it once and am comfortable with monarch level.
 
Last thing I wanna say for today (this thread grows like a madman! :eek: ):

During the game, I'll take a screenshot of the map (of one of the advisor screens) every turn, and I'll keep up a log. Both will be on my website, which is strictly forbidden for your eyes! ;)

Well, it was "partly" supposed to be a Dutch game but I am quite sure we will not make it to 8 players until tomorrow evening! So I am Ok with it. Please give your preferentials etc... and i'll sign you up. ;)

Disclaimer: I don't think so but if others oppose I like to hear it. I do not wanna be "the Boss" here :)

- Direct IP is for internet play, Check the PBEM forum for info.
- Level: I am thinking of Monarch, not to hard, not to easy.
 
i dont think 1.01 and 1.14 can work
but if you want a pbem go to my ulitmate PBEM of death
 
About rodneysandy: The more the merrier. ;)

Spacetrvler: I'm sure v1.01 and v1.14 won't work. But what do you mean with the rest?
 
I'm in for this one, although I have no experience with PTW or PBEM yet. I even thought PBEM would be passing on the savegame by E-mail so there would not be any 'MP-sessions'. But now I understand we do make appointments for playing, and in those sessions the game will be tossed around by E-mail?? And I always play with random civs so I wouldn't even know what civ I'd like to be. Anyway, if I have to choose here are my prefs:

Email: plux@tweakers.net
Civ: Japanese (or any other)
Name : Plux
Country Name : default
Noun : default
Adj : default
Title : default
 
I'm having problems getting 114f to operate correctly.I downloaded from powergozer(civ 3 pbem games thread)but it keeps saying that it can't find 1fc23.dll file,whatever that is.Any ideas?

I don't know. I thought the Dutch version was the English version. But it might be a slightly different version, which, in that case, is causing the problem. I haven't seen this error.

There are no real plans but I for example will only be able to play in the evening. Just keep an eye out for email if we wanna have some progress ;) (I guess).
 
rodneysandy: join us, not being dutch is no problem for me.

I'm wondering if we're all gonna upgrade to 1.14 and all be sitting at the comp at the same time. Why not start an IP turn based game, goes a lot quicker than PBEM. Especialy in the beginning this saves lots of time (move worker, save, email, wait, open email, start mine, save, email, wait)

I guess we can do that also in the near future, that is the plan BTW (remember Agent Orange™) ;) . But the great advantage with PBEM game is that you are not dependent on all players being there. I would like to play a turnbased game sometime if somebody arranges a strict schedule and all players comply with it before starting up. (8 players will be tough I think.)

I hope this will be soon! :goodjob:
 
We must at least play one turn a day. I doubt we'll play on till 2050 AD, but if so, that's 540 turns! That one-and-a-half year!

Now if that's the consequence of playing with the 8 of us, then that suits me fine. But I do think that especially in the beginning we should play Turn Based. Also because then you don't really have to wait that long.

Yet, as ERIKK said: the feasibility is questionable. And I also don't have the time for that this week.

One thing is vital: If you receive the PBEM, play is as soon as possible! After all, playing one turn per day means that everyone should play one turn per day.
 
PBEM it is. One turn a day is np for me, I check my email several times day and I'll be able to fit in the odd turn in my schedule. Especially those early turns : pressing enter because your worker is busy and your warrior isn't finished yet :)

Furthermore I say lets go for 540 turns if necessary. It wil be some sort of record if we finish it in 1,5 years!

When can I expect the first save to be mailed?
