Ya all nee to draw a line in the sand (so to speak)

You mean...something like this?

 

[Mistfit]

Exactly!!!

 

[gmaharriet]

I dunno. Might be a needed resource out there. Ya sure you want to give them an entire tile?

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

this is gonna sound stupid cause I'm old and rusty. Initial expansion to the south to contain blue boy. get a boat out from Kazan. mist's line in the sand is cool. Even better is I get to go after irongold...

@ scout, you'll need to change the OoB, I can't stop laughing. 4a. have an idea...

 

[Whomp]

OK I got it. Seems we're alone so a line across the Mistginot line is in order....then.

 

[fe3333au]

We need to get a port city ... then grab some beers and if the weather's nice, go sailing ... if weather is patchy, well we'll just drink the beer

 

[gmaharriet]

Would that exclude us from Glib and TOE?

Whomp, I just realized we never finished discussing this. Glib is up to the team to decide but, um, I just finished reading a certain no research training game where you finished the TOE...ya know the one Bede would never let you forget?

I'd say TOE is definitely ok to get, but if anyone isn't clear on how it works, let's be sure to discuss. Love ya, Whomp!!!

One of my finer moments. Look at it this way, I never succumbed to "wonder addiction" and that proves it. The better part of that game was the tongue lashing I got from Rik Meleet for a tech steal. Everyone seems to forget how MGL's and a beachhead were established on the Greek continent.

However, I've never been given a vacation in the middle of a SG either. Irongold may have to send the save by email after all.

What are you two talking about

What are you two talking about

Gram Harriet was reading about a no science SG I was involved with where I pulled a major "whomper" of a mistake.

What happened was Bede set me up with a ToE prebuild. When it finishes you take Atomic theory and Electronics as your two free techs. Usually another city has a prebuild for Hoover's Dam (which comes from electronics) and is a huge production boost in the industrial age. I took Fascism as my first tech (it's was in the research queue btw) and atomic theory as my 2nd tech. We still completed Hoover's but we had to wait till we got electronics in a trade. Oops.

In that game Rik Meleet was the evaluator of trades and Bede was the trainer.

What are you two talking about

I'm just teasing Whomp about what happened in another "no research" game when the Theory of Evolution came in with its free techs. See post #557 in this thread. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=106205&page=19 .

You did a fantastic job with that beachhead, Whomp. That was an exciting game!!!

Yes, I saw what happened with AK. Does he need a skip or swap? or can he do it by email?

Edit: Oops! Xpost with Whomp.

 

[zerksees]

What seems to make sense to me is to keep a list of those who have, or will have, expressed an interest in playing a set. Then whichever of them can post a "got it" first can play, and the next time it would be a different person on the list who can pick it up first. If none of the remaining people on the list picks it up within 24 hours, someone who has already played a set can pick it up. Clear as mud?

Crystal clear. Designated lurker on first come first served basis when the lurker spot comes up. Interesting.

 

[Whomp]

I have a bit of a problem with power cord on my other laptop so I may need a skip until I get a new one. I can't even get the disk out.

 

[gmaharriet]

Aw, sorry to hear that Whomp. If it were me, I'd consider it a great personal tragedy...even a single day without civ.

Regular roster update:

Irongold - up
AK - on deck
Lurker
Scout - got us started
Gram H. - just played and scouted
Whomp - skip due to 'puter problems

Lurkers:

I don't mind waiting ... a day or so ... please advise ... bloody computers

lurker's comment: Why wait? Us lurkers wont want to lurk a dead game, will we?

 

[fe3333au]

So do I use the save on post 75 ??

 

[Whomp]

Yes Irongold grab the save from Gram H's post 75.

BTW Holly said she's buying me a new disk since she thinks she threw out the other one and I hope to be back in order tonight.

 

[gmaharriet]

So do you two (Whomp and Irongold) want to do a swap? Or do you want to wait and see if Whomp gets his disk and keep the original order? I'm ok with either one, so you two decide. If Irongold has already played his turns, then Whomp can take it if he wants. After that, AK should be back.
