Lookin For First MP Opponent

[scorpioeyez]

I've always played Civ by myself because I didn't have a high speed connection. Now I have a high speed connection and I want to play against someone in order to improve my own gaming skills (It's worth noting that I've never gotten a score high enough to rank me above 'Dan Quayle').

I'd prefer a PBEM game but if you host, I'll play.

 

[DeafDolphin]

I'm willing. I've not been playing very long myself.

I've PM'd you my email addy, we can discuss settings and such via email.

 

[zenspiderz]

hi I play you. I would recommend a pitboss game though as it is much better than pbem. I could try hosting although I haven't done it before.

I'll PM you with my email details...

 

[DeafDolphin]

I've sent you an email reply at the addy you specified.

 

[Fosse]

I'd love to get in on this if it goes Pitboss.

Zen, I have set up one Pitboss so if you have questions I can hopefully answer them (though I'm no expert). I don't have the werewithal to host two games at the moment though.

I'd love to get into a pitboss game, since I've never played one before. I've got an email game going with dolphin, so perhaps he can vouch for my responsiveness . . I'll vouch for his Anyway, would love to try this out, any settings, any time!

Yup. Where's the bloody turn?!?!?!



I've got 4 games going at the moment, everyone seems reliable so far. At least until I kick their ass.

Edit: I'd be happy to join in with pitboss, assuming comcast doesn't throw gold doo-doo like it has been lately

 

[Project_2501]

You mean our turn? With chris, of course... He should be off work soon and have it off to you I hope >_<

 

[DeafDolphin]

I sent it to you earlier tonight. I'll resend.

Perhaps we need to make a thread or something for this game so we know when it's been handed off in case of problems.

 

[Project_2501]

Only problem would be that Chris doesn't have a forum account yet...

Yet.

He will be assimilated eventually. Resistance is futile!

anyhow... </threadjacking> Sorry!

 

[Fosse]

Is anything going to come of this? Are you still interested in hosting a Pitboss, Zen?

 

[scorpioeyez]

Four of us are trying to set up a pitboss game to hopefully start within the next day or two. Wanna join in?

 

[Fosse]

I certainly do. You can PM me details, or email kylebenanderson AT gmail DOT com.

Thanks!

 

[kienkdtt]

Pls send me an PM. may I join in pitboss with you guys?

 

[zenspiderz]

hi

I'll up for it and can host unless anyone else has a burning desire to host instead.

If it is decided that I host then please everyone send to me an email declaring prefered civ and second choice. Use the email address that you wish to recieve turn notifications, ok?

How many players do we have now btw?

I would prefer to have at least 7-8 humans (or near equivalent) to minimise the presence of bumbling AI and keep things interesting..

MY EMAIL zen (at) hart (dot) euro1net (dot) com

My prefered civ btw is Peter but failing that I'll go for freddy or napoleon

zen

 

[Fosse]

Outstanding. 7-8 sounds good to me. I'd be glad to have zero AIs. Map size standard? What about other options? Map script, barbarian levels, difficulty level, etc?

 

[Project_2501]

There is one AI left in this pitboss game if anyone is interested, PM zenspiderz
