PTW - Tiny PBEM - normal production

[Zild]

I have set the game up, played the first turn and set it on to the next player, which is grs. Already I can tell from my starting position that I'm going to have a VERY bad game!

Turn order (with approximate times):
Zild (America): 16:00-18:00
grs (Rome): 18:00-00:00
Barfot (Scandinavia): 00:00-03:30
SmartSquid399 (Greece): 03:30-04:30
wei (Japan): 06:00-08:00
kingstuart (China): 15:00-16:00

(wei's random civ resulted in Japan)

Rules:
Size: Small
Barbs: Raging
Land: Archipelago
Water: 80%
Climate: Wet
Temp: Warm
Age: 5 Billion
Diff: Regent
Victory: Domination, Space Race, Diplomatic, Conquest, Cultural. No minor types.
Civ-specific abilities and cultural conversion allowed. Random seed preserved, not that it should matter...

It goes without saying that no utilities are allowed without prior consent - if you rely on a utility, please contact me before using it so that I can check it out.

I will e-mail everybody contact addresses for the rest of the group.

Good luck everybody!

Well you chose some horror settings for non seafaring civs, which all but one are, but I will prevail nonetheless

played and passed it

 

[Zild]

Hey... the settings were described before you all chose the civs, no?

Hope we hear from Wei soon, otherwise it may be a while until turn 2!

 

[Barfot]

hey
i got problems loading the game.
when i try to load it i get this up.

scenario invalid!

could not open scenario file. The file may be corrupt.

Why does this happend. what to do
this is may first time playing pbem so maybe i do something wrong. but i dont know what.
And yes i have 1.27f

 

[kingstuart]

did you save the file in PTW>saves

king stuart

 

[Zild]

I've not done this before, so it'll be wild stabs in the dark, but...

Are you trying to "Load Game" or "Load Scenario"? It sounds like the second, when you need to be doing the first...

 

[Barfot]

Since i cant load the file i can either save the file. but yes i put the file in the PTW -saves when i downloaded it. however you dont need to have your files in PTW - Saves folder when you load singel player games.

 

[Smartsquid399]

Since we have only done one turn I suggest that we start over and see if that happens. Also could you put a list of emails in the order we should send them so we know whom to send the saved games to?

 

[grs]

I am sorry, it is me who played the save in c3c! I will replay in PTW sorry for confusing.

Edit: replayed and resent, sorry!

 

[Barfot]

yeah its working now
apologies accepted

 

[Barfot]

ok, whats the email to the man i supose to send the game to. may be a smart thing to know

 

[grs]

zild: please send us ALL email adresses per mail, we need them later anyways for diplo.

 

[wei]

I haven't check the forum last night and the game started

ahhh, who has the game?

Wei.

 

[Zild]

Sorry - been waiting on Wei's e-mail address before I can send them out to everybody. Expect an e-mail from me any time now...

Also, I don't think it's fair for grs to replay his turn. Maybe we should start again (that, and I have really bad terrain!) (j/k, of course...)

 

[Barfot]

i just send the game to SmartSquid399 so he have it now
here we come

 

[Smartsquid399]

I sent the game to wei. He has it now.

 

[kingstuart]

[grs]

[Smartsquid399]
