Rookies vs. Pros

[markusf]

stop ranting and play. There isn't anyone who can win if you get rep 2000 years after the other guy in a duel. I would have lost the race to all the wonders.

The way this thread has gone.. illustrates just what is wrong with some of the people active in the CIV gaming community.. I truly can't say that I didn't expect it. It does sadden me somewhat.. as long as this attitude of petty strife & immature ranting continues the community will go nowhere.. I want the newcomers that read this post to take heed. However, not all of us are like this. In my opinion.. this is a result of too much playing the AI at crucial stages in a person's development... & a certain inbred quality among some players that have been around too long & should go find more useful things to do with their lives.

I have the feeling that this is not going anywhere.. but I will try again. So far I have 2 good to average players here. Cim & myself.. do I have anymore ? Do I have a Pro that wants to step forward ? The Pro gets to "password" his side.. the others, incl myself do not. ( I anticipate somewhat of a floating crap game "feel" to this as we go along ).

Markus, Eyes & Drake are all disqualified & there is no reason for them to post here again.

I will tell you three & anyone else that cares to listen.. I am an old gaming Dog Soldier & I will roll right over you guys.. I have seen all of this bullfeathers before & I know how to get around it. All that it takes is desire & ability.

Drake, i think it's better to ignore eyes. He is f***ing arrogant and he doesn't do any good in forums. And there are tons of players who think the same about him as i do.

Beating 2 or 3 newbies isn't very hard if you are a average player.
Marfus is the best player i know(who never cheated as far as i know). I think you can beat 2 or 3 average in a single game.

Well if you want newbie's here you got one!!
myself, still need to play my first game! (multyplayer) I think i s*ck at this game, (however I most times win with nowmal civ)

so if any of you guys want to help to learn it to play on multyplayer I really thank you!

Whats the point of cheating? Unless someone got a bunch of tribes or your start sucks you should be able to stay with the leader every game. I run my autologger program that saves every single turn of the game, and after the game i move all the saved files to my website. Which reminds me i should finish off the program and put it up for downloading.

my game yesterday with, jedi, jes, and smartfart i beat them all pretty easy. I had 30 cities at 300 bc, mikes, HG and collosus. king 1x 1x. I'd say i could take out 5 or 6 players with a decent start, that is as long as they aren't allied, if they are allied and sharing tech, it doesn't matter how good you are. You just can't match 4 or 5 peoples tech rates + expansion. Not to mention combined attacks.

Ok... we have Cimfindriel, Hell-Raiser & myself for the average players & I am sure I can get a gamer or two from my regular groups to fill in from time-to-time. Still need an expert !!

Kaak & Johann511, you both seemed to express an interest in this. Are either of you available ?

After the first session, the game will have to revolve around my & the "Pros" schedules.I don't anticipate a problem though, as I almost always have somebody online that wants to play.

Anytime in the evening is good for me, both on weekends and week days. I'm in for the long haul!

Markusf, maybe you could share this autolog program with us. It's usefull for everyone to prove someone is cheating or not.

 

[markusf]

ya I Will i just got to make some changes to it first. I just haven't found the time lately..

 

[HIEROPHANT]

looks like eyesofnight does not stand a chance with they way settings should be. it seem you can only handle one on one games. i play with 7 civs always and much bigger map always ragings hordes. i bet you dont even have barbarians in your game. iF you played me in a real game and other people you would not stand a chance against me or other people.

 

[kindred]

Some of you guys sound good. Mind giving me a few pointers on how to beat anything. Even the AI's beat me

 

[markusf]

much bigger map always ragings hordes. i bet you dont even have barbarians in your game.

I have been posting way to much of my knowledge lately

If you build your capitol inland(best is a river) and you have no ocean squares, you will most likely not see a barb the whole game on raging hordes. If someone insists on raging hordes, i will go along with it, after all its to my advantage.

 

[gar13]

i'll be one of the newbies

and Eyes, i'd love to play a duel against you sometime. 1x1x, king, and i don't care about size or barbarians.

you will most certainly win, but i'd enjoy the challenge
