Ok, I've played Civ III since the day it came out, and I can't say that I'm very good dispite the hours playing. However, I'm very interested in testing my skills against someone other than the AI. Unfortunately, all of my friends are the non-civ-playing type.

Anybody interested in conducting a VERY friendly PBEM? I play most every evening of the week, starting at 8:00 pm PST. So, if there are any takers, reply via this thred and we can discuss terms. The more players, the better. I'd like to have at least 6 to get this started.


Thanks!!!!!!
 
Umm, probably would get more people if you did this in the PBEM sub forum ;)

And no thanks. I have enough as it is.
 
And move it has. :D
 
I'm new to PBEM but would like to play. Does your description of a "friendly" game mean anything other than being nice in our outside-the-game (e.g., e-mails, chat posts, etc.) relationships with other players? In other words, are you proposing that we not attack each other for the first 100 turns, etc.? Also, this is PTW, right?

civ: China (if there are no "nice" gameplay restrictions) or Egypt (if we are playing more of a builder game with "nice" gameplay restrictions)
e-mail: civfanreagan[AT]hotmail.com
time zone: Central U.S.

edit: clarified my civ choices
 
Depending on what VERY friendly means to you, I might be interested to join. Could you give a bit more details to your requirement? I wouldn't want to be too sheepish, or too wolfish...;)
 
War = fun but I like allies more than enimies(i cant spell)
 
lol
 
It looks like eight or nine of us are ready to go. Shouldn't we get things started by having a discussion about the parameters of the game, including the "niceness" level?
 
I don't like Barbarians. I prefer smaller maps over larger ones and if we're to play nice I'd like to try Carthage. My time zone is -5 GMT and I check my email often from 4 PM to 1 AM (I'm an insomniac). I'll send my email to anyone who wishes to lead this game.
 
Island map preferably standard as I prefer large and sash like small. lots of islands :) (i like islands) and no limit to how naty evil or nice u want to be u r ur own ruler
 
A Standard size map is fine with me. Small continents or medium archipelago would be cool. No/Sedentary barbs is fine with me. Culturally linked starts should be "off" as should respawning.

As to the game concept -- I'm open to either agreeing not to attack each other until a certain date or just playing it wide-open. If we take the first approach, I want Egypt. If we play the second, I'll take China. All of the standard victory conditions are fine with me, but NOT any of the regicide/queen variants.

Are there any other variables we should discuss?

By the way, Abrams, I don't think any of us are trying to usurp your spot as leader of the game -- we're just fired-up to play!
 
lol if every1 is ok Id like to close entry or we will be 90 by the time this game ends
