Pitboss game within the team
- Thread starter DaveShack
- Start date
Looks like just 3 civs are left: Gandhi, Peter, Hatshepsut.
Bengeance and RegentMan didn't hit end turn yet, and we have a couple of folks who decided to move before settling.

You would too if you were me. I turned an awful spot into a great one.DaveShack said:
Makes my people fitter from cross-country training as well.
Nothing wrong with moving of course... 
I was torn between having one great spot or possibly two good spots.

I signed on as Mansa Musa. I had totally forgot that Meleager signed up as the Romans last time before he had to be kicked.
We should be pretty close to turn 2 now correct?
Let me ask about a few rules....
1. Is it ok to give goto orders in this game?
2. What happens if we miss a turn?
3. Will the AI be playing the civs not chosen?
4. Can we trade maps out of game?
Also my MSN addy is casey DOT venters AT hotmail DOT com if anyone needs to get me for diplo. I'm assuming this is not 18 civ AW

1. Of course! You need to do something when you're not able to play.
2. Research, production, goto moves go on. The rest is on hold. It's just the same as when you end your turn at the beginning of a turn in single player.
3. Yes.
4. No!
And I believe I already have you on MSN. For the others, I'll just send a PM when I need to speak to them.

Correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't the ai civ's only take their turn at the end of the turn, if thats so then any civs not taken should be booted to speed up play.
Gandhi, Peter, and Hatty are still available. I'm going to claim them and kick myself to convert them to AI's so that we can get going. If anyone wants to join after this they should be able to claim one in the normal way and inherit the AI's position.

question on diplo..follow up to Tubby's
all diplo takes place in the game( non email agreements to not fight or claim land)...does both people have to be online at the same time or can you make a request then send it to the other person to view and accept/decline?
Also does the within game chat work with no problems that would cause me to get booted or crash the game?

I converted the unclaimed players to AI's, and they immediately took their turn. In simul turns nothing is keeping them back, so they go first at the beginning of the turn.

Hey! I thought that I had hit end turn, but someone was lagging the game...Robi D said:And to think RegentMan had a go at me for holding the game up

All fixed now. Turn two has begun.

We have to do diplo stuff in game??? why not allow MSN or PM's to dialogue? Out of all of the times that I've been on the only time anyone else was on was when like 8 people were on yesterday.
I think that in-game would likely be the last place that I would attempt diplo. some of the other media is much quicker.
Any other ground rules besides Matrix's answers to my questions?

I think diplo out of game (PM, MSN, chatroom, etc.) is OK provided you've met in-game.
If anyone plans to be away for a significant amount of time, it would be a good idea to either have a buddy play for you (not someone already in the game
) or to be kicked and let the AI play until your return. It will get really annoying if someone drops out unannounced and we run at a solid 24 hours per turn, since it should be possible to go much faster except for the timezone differences.

yeah but remember sometimes things happen that are out of our control...
/like the impending ice storm here..that could make me electricityiless.
