Meranwe, yep. What's your computer's config? If you're close to the minimum requirements, lower all graphics settings, that should help. I have even less than the minimum but can play fine with "low" settings throughout.

Another 48 hours passed, I've sent an Email to Ale_beer, but it seems we've lost a player. Too bad, but I'll be looking into the replacement list today. Sir Elbridge, could you pass me the latest save?

A mail has gone out to the first player in the replacement list, I hope the save will be forwarded in the next two days if I recieve the last player's savegame in time
Also, if anybody new is interested to play, the replacement list is empty

Pondering... pondering...
Who would I be replacing, and what is the in-game status of the Civ? Also,what happened to the two replacement players listed above on this thread?

I'm not sure the point of time makes much of a difference to the game and current players, but it sure does for the new player.
Since we just started, any new player has an almost fresh start, the other players won't even notice there's somebody new to the fore. If we were further in the game and everybody already made contact to each other, then there could be a noticable difference imho, like in game play style, sudden strategy changes etc. but I assume this won't likely happen before the Common Era - we're quite far away from each other.Finding new players, whether we're at 3850 B.C. or 10 A.D. or 1600 A.D. is always the same task. I tried out internet play earlier and people hopped on and off games no matter which point they were in the game, so I suppose if the next one drops out 1000 or 2000 years later, I'll still have candidates who are interested. Let's hope for the best that we won't need any.

LouLong just informed me that the new player recieved his pw.
I love it when a plan comes together.

save recieved by Chinetter yesterday night, forwarded to Meranwe a minute ago... I think for the second PBEM I'll set up, I'll see that we play online for the first hour or two, to overcome the "forward-automatted-moves-with-one-unit" phase and then switch to PBEM
and then switch to PBEM
