PBEM: Tiny

[Scratcher]

Save received from azzaman333 this morning. I had to wait until this evening to play my turn, but the save has gone onto Spiffykeen7744.

I have a luxury hooked up ...but seeing as this is a man-made map, i'm thinking everyone has got a lux in their starting loc.

GPS to Spiffykeen7744,

There's no luxury in my 9 tile radius.

Maybe Classical Hero favours you more than the rst of us

hmm, maybe i have no iron or horses...or i paid classical off to win this game with no problems. you decide.

or i paid classical off to win this game with no problems. you decide.

I would never suggest such a thing

I am sure if Classical made this map it will be fair, and probably with a pleasant suprise or two.

azzaman333?

 

[greekguy]

i haven't seen a save of this game for more than 2 weeks. azza, is it still up to you?

 

[azzaman333]

I.... dont know....

No, I remember sending this.

EDIT: Resent.

 

[Scratcher]

@ azzaman,

I have checked my mail every day and your mail (and resent mail) has not been received. Please check you are sending to the correct address.

 

[classical_hero]

Could it be in your Spam box? For some reason I had a similar problem recieving emails from a player for awhile from my hotmail address and finally it showed up in my spam box about a week later. Now I have no problems recieving from this player.

 

[Scratcher]

I'm not using hotmail and I do not have spam box. azzaman has been able to send me previous saves (both prompted and unprompted). I will send him an email to try and resolve this.

 

[Scratcher]

It has now been more than 4 days since my previous post and direct email to azzaman. I have not received any game save, or reply to my posts and email.

Being new to this PBEM stuff, is there a technical explaination I might have missed or is azzaman acting like an assman?

I would like to know if this is usual as we have played about 3 turns in almost 2 months. I am not the most spritely of characters, and I am now seriously concerned I might pass away before even building a swordsman.

Please advise,

Scratcher

just so you know Scratcher, this isn't normal and PBEMs usually go a good 20-30 turns in 2 months. it is kinda sad we've done 5 or so turns in the same amount of time. i suspect this has a lot to do with azzaman, who's huge PBEM load (15+ games!!) has him running late with a lot of games.

 

[Scratcher]

greekguy,

I must admit, I lurked for a long time before having the courage to join a PBEM game. I was a little unsure that if I was unble to check my emails and play every day I would be considered a bad palyer.

I have unfortunately found out that it is not exactly the case!

However, My patience for this particular game is beginning to wear thin.

 

[SpiffyKeen7744]

I am in another game with Azzaman, and I just resent that save to him, as it has been about 5 days since I sent it the first time. If he has email problems and cannot keep up, we should look for a replacement player.

 

[azzaman333]

Replace me in this game, since (a) I dont seem to be able to send to Scratcher (for some odd reason) and (b) I really need to cut down on PBEMs.

 

[semental]

Well, I hope Azza is not dropping all of his games but I can pick this up if needed.
