got dsl, wanna host full game, super map(30000 sq.) everything optimized by expert

No, no, do not worry, general and Narz! I have long since taken pity on your tournament, since by its length and level of complexity and transmutations should rightly even be called the father of this thread. Although, nature always betters itself with each rising generation....

I am sick of your arrogant attitude, I realize it stems from an inferiority complex but that makes it no less annoying. I challange you to a one on one MP game...

Random Map
Size : Large
Custom Landmass : Small
Land Form : Continents

This type of map should give you a little space and time before I find you.

If you cannot accept my challange then I have no time for your convoluted tournament.

- Narz :king:
 
Well Nicosar... since you were so nice to stop by my neck of the woods, I thought I would return the favor...

And since you were also so nice to call the profession of advertising pure evil... an industry I have worked in for over 24 years... I thought it was worth asking you a simple question.

Now I know you won't have the guts to answer it... but here it is anyway.

What do you call a person who gets two free techs in a game as the host and doesn't even bother to "mention" it to the other players in a game?

So gentlemen... If you are going to play this so called honorable person in a game, I would suggest you start every game he hosts by asking if he has free techs... because if you don't, he won't tell you.

Have a nice day Nicosar...

And do try to answer my single question...

:p
 
Everyone I am starting to mail out the schedules right now, let me finish this then we can get on to business! As for this most surprising happening (above) I have accepted his challenge in private since despite his eagerness to listen to the slanderous comments made by others, who would seek to destroy me without even making one single move on the board (now that is impressive, I dont even have skills like that....:>) , I know that I have always carried this type of atmosphere and that these assaults merely added to them, and that Narz has a right to be skeptical, and after all, I dearly want him to participate.

I just hope that he doesn't keep up the real game for this legally-binding 'proof of skill' which I must travel to the highest court in the land (the court of civ, fair and all-just) in order to present. We can play the tournament and your duel at the same time, can't we? Please, so all these exciteable young things have someone else to blame for delays?

Meaning nothing but good fun and civility (hear that, Nicosar will decimate you all where you stand like whimpering MAGGOTS!!!).... errrr.... *ahem*, lets get the balls rolling!

Nicosar the Gameplayer

Oh and I agree to all those proposed settings, except that we play with my graphics, since regular civ is hard enough for me to withstand without it at least looking good. Dont worry the game will remain the same! To do this, you must make a new folder called BEAUTY ALT and make GOOD copies of the CITIES, UNITS, TERRAIN1 and TERRAIN 2 files and put them in the new folder. i will send you the RULES files, which only changes from the original game the replacement of fanatics and crusaders for hunters and elite guard, which shouldn't be TOO big a deal, i hope, since I only kept them in there to save myself alot of trouble by having to remake the UNITS file. (A big hassle, trust me.)
 
I must confess to having my doubts aroused as well by the hate mail that has found it's way into 2 Civ forums now. This is really turning ugly fast, and I'm not sure I want to be part of it. I really looked forward to the challenges that a game of this type, (however slow), would pose. But if it doesn't start real soon so all this rhetoric can come to a close, then I will be forced to reconsider my involvement. No offense or insult to anyone is intended here. Just tired of the BS and ready to play.
 
Please Ming (and gentlemen) ive already told you (well, ming, not all of you, but listen anyway) I did not know that was a requirement for playing and could not remember atawa suggesting it, or for more legal purposes, even stating that this was a definite rule, (and neither could the thirdplayer; 'something Spy', or whoever he was) and so I didnt mention it because I did not know that this was needed to be even said, and Im not sure if the 'Spy' even did either, and if this is some universal requirement that is part of your house rules then you are quite naive for expecting me to instantly adhere to them unnoticed.

As for the crash and me losing all save files, my autosave was off, i later discovered, which I remember turning off (becuase I indeed know it is on by default) because I had a file with well over a hundred autosave files that I neglected to erase, and still do, and I didnt want anymore)

Convenient HUH? :>

-Nicosar the Gameplayer- (father of Nicosarian Tactics) you'll notice thats CAPITALIZED, gentlemen...(I really should get them copyrighted or something...)
 
Ming, do you really find it necessary to bring your slanderous remarks here to this thread and infect it as you have "yours"? For one of your years and experience I am surprised.

Your behavior is more fitting a child than a man of established professional position. While I was hoping to return to some civility, as you can see from my most recent post on your forum, I am disappointed to see you here babbling on about free techs.

Hmmm... you brought them to my forums :)

And it's only slander when they are lies. I'm only stating facts that can't be denied.

Remember guys... this guy doesn't think getting free techs is unfair or worth mentioning to other people the game.

You be the judge.

No lies here... just facts
 
And as an after thought, I need to mention that I looked at the save of the Atawa / Nicosar game. Another reason I want to get this started. I have to say that the geographic disadvantage you claimed, Nicosar, was not there IMHO. Regardless of starting techs, you should have had more than 3 cities at 100 AD. Again, IMHO.
 
Rick, you would eat that guy for breakfast...

Next time I see Nic and you online, I will set forth a game.


Nicosar, if you want help I can give it to you. All you have to do is ask. We need a few more smack talkers like you around, but you gotta learn to play first... :)

Based on what others say of you I thought you were an educated man. These are not facts dear Ming, but your take on the situation, nothing more. I am sure you see this yet you post with such conviction that it is appalling.

Of course, we MUST choose either of the two choices you propose, cheater or no honor (are they not one in the same?). Dare I say we need not be gagged by such limitations.
 
EEENNNNNNNNOUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS MY GAME!!!! GET THE HELL OUT IF NOT TO DISCUSS IT!!!!!

Simple fact... in his own words. I didn't know that this was needed to be even said.

So he doesn't think he needed to tell his opponents that he had free techs...

You be the judge, using his own words ;)
 
Ok. Ming claims Nicosar cheated. Nicosar says he misunderstood the rules. All the keystrokes in the world are not going to change this. So let's stop beating a dead horse. It is absolutely pointless to keep this going. You both think you are right. It is a waste of time.
 
markusf did the same thing and nobody hates him.And it was in 7 player dip game.6 player's valuable time was wasted.It was supposed to be MWHC's return also.

It looks like I may have to close this.....

is the game setup now?
 
HEY!! Generohohal! Why say such things, they only lead to misunderstandings, you really should let me answer such crucial questions, after all, this is Gabriel and he threatens to close the gates...will you speak for me? Of course not! Lawyers aren't allowed in heaven! ...heh...anyway:

the schedule, as I earlier have said, was unable to be scanned in tonight, more problems, this time with the actual hardware (it is old) but this time I have someone experienced in junk around, so maybe it might take a day but you'll all get it in a day at the latest and if there is another problem after that some poor raccoon and his posse living under my window outside will get a scanner to the head.
 
12 pages and no start time?..Oy Vae..get on with it gents.
 
However, the schedule is ready and actually, there is a window tonight starting at 8:00 Pacific Time GMT -8 that is open until 10:00, but if we start the game by then I think that maybe the player whose schedule ends the slot MIGHT be able to give a little more... but that is just wishful thinking, let's not rely on it.

Anyway, if any of my players read this, the game is ready to start, without Texta, unfortunately, and only 6 players, but this is favorable! That is, unless Narz isn't willing to on behalf of his request, but I think he is a stout fellow despite his extomporate opinions of me and I am sure he is grand a guy enough to realize I will INDEED play him another, personal duel where we will meet probably much sooner than we would in my game, and so there is no reason to further plague this game with delays.

I will eat dinner now, hopefully quickly, and when I get back I will mail and ICQ all players to the effect of playing, and it should work out, but if not, tomorrow for sure this game can be christened!

Please Smash, have some sympathy for a humble elitist!
