Looking for Regular+Fun+Educational Game

Dragonlor and Pedders, I have labeled this game as dragonlore&pedders in my organization (I am currently playing quite a few, for me, pbem games). Please try to reference something to this effect when you send me correspondence concerning this game. I get confused really easily :blush:.
 
Turn 2 sent to Pedders. Btw, Dragonlor, you should rename the thread. Probably something like "Dragonlor-Rcoutme-Pedders vs. Comps" or something similar. That way, we will remember which thread to post that we have sent the game in.
 
How do you rename a thread?

And what are the regular customs in PBEM games? How much chatting is done? Are there any unwritten rules to follow by?
 
For renaming, ask a mod. You cannot do that personally later than 15 minutes (IIRC) after creating the thread but the mod can.

Idle chatting anytime lol
Diplo, usually after you have met in game.

This is "common law", you are able to change or edict your own rules.
 
As LouLong said. If you have met a human player then all diplomacy is considered 'on' although you may not be able to actually sign RoP, trade or alliances until you have the right techs. AFAIK, however, it is still ok to gang up on another civ, even if you don't have an embassy, even if you have not even discovered Writing.

Before you find a human player, you are not supposed to divulge any information that could assist you or another player directly (such as, "I'm in the NW corner of the map and am at war with the Germans, Hittites and Maya, please help!"). It is ok to complain about starting position, stupid moves you made, the obnoxious barbarians, etc. as that is (usually) idle chatter.

Finally, you are not allowed to make diplomatic agreements (I won't attack you, I promise, just please don't beat the piss out of me!) when you are still at war. It's ok to end the war, but if you are allied with the other human player, you are limited to the diplomacy options in the game (i.e. end war or no diplomacy). You can, however, agree to diplomatic options not on the table with AI civs (such as, "I will give you silks and furs if you end the war").

BTW, sent turn on to Pedders
 
These beginning turns are rough. It's taking me upwards of 2 seconds to figure out which enter button I want to press. :D
 
Hey, a family problem has come up. I don't know if I will be available for the next couple of days up to 2 weeks. I will try to continue my turns but if I find that I cannot I will just give my password and one of you can do my turns for a little while. Sorry.
 
I have some Bad news. The game is buggy. I have entered the order to research Warrior Code 3 times and it still has not taken! We are going to have to start over! I am not certain what happened, but this just can not continue. I will be unable to research anything ever! Please post to let me know you read this. I will also send each of you an email.
