PBEM Four Players with Self Alliance

No turn for a couple of days, anyone know who has it?
 
i have not seen it since, well, dont want to give anything away to anyone who might not have contact with me, but there was a lengthy email accompanying the last turn i sent, i believe you know what that was about.
 
Yes, I replied to that email, did you get it?
 
Must be with Zurich UK still then.
I will resend it tonight in case its lost in cyberspace
 
ok internet access is restored (email was never down)

do we post any game action here ie contacts and trades
 
Weve been using email for all contact and trades, probably the best way.
I suppose we shouldnt really post in game stuff here until everyones met everyone else, except for narratives/stories that anyone wants to put in.
 
general game information is fine in the thread, such as "barbarians looted my city" but unitl everyone has contacted everyone else any in game information you reveal in the thread may be beneficial to other players who are not in contact, even just a little information can help another player, there are players in other games which have learned this the hard way
 
a couple weks ago i questioned the slow movement of the game, for about 5 turns it got pretty slow. initially i waned to see what the problem was and i first asked zurichuk if he was doing okay. im not going to go into all my reaosns why, but mostly because he was the only player i had not made contact with and therefore i had no email correspondence with him, while i did with other players.

i just now read a pm from him, sent a couple weeks ago, in which he portrays pretty fast response times and was perhpas a little offended by my quesitoning him right off the bat.

i would like to apologize to him, i was not trying to assign blame, but mostly like i said he was the only player i had no correspondence with. whatever the problem was i just wanted to know and deal with it with all players to see if someone needed patience or what.

anyway, i apologize for my post, it was probably not the best way to deal with the issue and i should have made everyone equally acountable at the start.

whatever the true issue was is in the past, lets hope we dont run into another 4-5 turns which take that long. additionally, if someone does have issues in the future and they know they are going to slow the game down (for a specific ongoing period of time, not one specific turn) please just let me know and sen dme your password, ill take yuor turns for you, of course if i gift a few of your cities to my own civs, hey that's just part of my fee. :D

seriously, though, if someone does have any problems just let me know the other players will just have to be patient while the turns move slow or even while the game takes a brief break.
 
I will be out of town this weekend. I will play my turn Friday night before I leave, and I will be back Sunday night. So basically I will only miss Saturday night. Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
I just received word from DoyBoy, his cable modem is down, cableman coming to look at it tomorrow. I think he is going to save some turns on a disk at work, play them at home, then can send them the next day from work, but i cannot guarantee that. He can't post here because this site has the word "fanatic" and his web at work has banned sites with words like that.
 
After further discussion with DogBoy he says as long as this problem continues he will play each turn everyday by downloading it from his mail at work, taking it home at night to play, then mailing it from work the next day. I should get the turn from him sometime tomorrow and then send it on to Apricorn.
 
Ok, I'm back online! I live in a new subdivision and houses are still being built. The construction workers hit the cable line, but the cable people came today and fixed it. Hopefully they don't hit it again.

I have the turn and will play it now and send along.
 
The Dutch hereby invite all heads of state and accompanying dignatories from around the world to the Coronation of Apricorn as King of the Dutch, the first such Ruler in the history of our world.
We invite you to Amsterdam, officially the finest city in the world, for this great event. Please also marvel at our Great Library, which was recently completed.

Apricorn of the Dutch
 
King Apricorn of the Dutch,
First of all, congratulations on being annointed King of the Dutch. I'm sure you will attempt to bring wealth and prosperity to your people.

Thank you for your invitation to visit your kingdom, and specifically your capitol. I shall take you up on your invitation and attempt to be there shortly.

DogBoy of the Greeks/Germans
 
Let the World know, the Germans have made war upon the Peaceful Dutch people.
Would the Germans care to elaborate exactly how the Dutch have "wronged the Germans in the past" which is their reason for this war, for if we did, they kept remarkably quiet about it at the time. nor ever attempted any peaceful negotiations. In fact relations were excellent until this sudden and unexplained declaration of war.
Or are the Germans merely envious of the Dutch Great Library and resources.....

Apricorn of the Dutch
 
To the world.
Let it be known that Apricorn is the master of disguise. I won't post the details here because it would be priviledged information that the world doesn't need to know about. But know this, Apricorn talks with a forked tongue and he has brought this war upon himself. I urge the leaders of the world to be wary of any treaties proposed by Apricorn of the Dutch. For all I know, Apricorn of the Koreans is just as bad! So be cautious of them also.

DogBoy of the Germans
 
The lies of a megolamaniac who searches desperately for excuses to conquer the world!

I challenge you to post this "privileged information" if such information exists. Take your time, if you wish, while your propaganda minister prepares a false pretence for world domination.

Be wary of Dogboy, of the Greeks, Germans or any other race, for it is he, not the Dutch who wages war, without negotiation.
