S&T PBEM Discussion Thread

[GreekAnalyzer]

Me and Spirictum had an idea (separately): A game between all of us on this forum, and then after a set amount of turns, we collab on an update to a central thread. In the meantime, however, we need to decide on some things:

Mods or not?

Times we can do this?

What World settings?

A.I. or not?

Discuss:

This is what Moai and I were implying to and I'm glad someone else is doing it If I play I do not think I will be doing a story out of it. I don't know. Maybe. When we tried LoR and RevDCM we got OOS each time.

 

[Noyyau]

Never played MP so no idea what's better.
RoM-AND is awesome but is also a lot to learn if you never played it. Same with RI I suppose.
If this is PBEM I don't think we're going to have problems with OOS, since it's not real-time anyway.

If I join, you would have to have a lot of time and patience as my laptop has a habit of overheating.

 

[CaterpillarKing]

Didn't you say you had a mac so you can't do mods Greek? And what is PBEM? Also DKVM we need you on Brazil.

PBEM: Play By EMail
The idea is that player 1 plays his turn (or more turns, if all play the same civilization), then saves, and the save is sent to the next player.

I'm usually here in the afternoon and evening GMT (I'm GMT+1). Sometimes mornings as well, sometimes I'm away without internet for a few days.

 

[TheNoob]

I'd totally join if I could and don't get steamrolled

No mods

I'm open from 2 pm GMT - 2 am GMT

Earth2 would be hilarious, but Continents if we don't want to do Earth2

AI!

 

[baseballpie]

1) I think no mods would be wise, as well.

2) I'm good between likely 6-7 AM EST (UTC-05:00) and 4:30- 7:30 PM EST on weekdays, probably all day on weekends.

3) I would like Continents or Hemispheres, and a start where all civs start in the Old World

4) Definately AI.

 

[DKVM]

1. RFCE

2. I can't say as I don't know what time zone everyone lives in.

3. Large Islands

4. Most definitely A.I

 

[TheNoob]

I live in EST, but I posted my time in GMT because it's a standard time everyone can use (no adding or subtracting hours), and Noyyau would only have to add one hour to get it to his time

 

[CaterpillarKing]

Hey guys what about teams?

 

[baseballpie]

I don't know about that. I propose everyone team up on Spirictum and Noyyau instead.



I really think solo playing would be better.

 

[TheNoob]

If there are 6 people playing, we should make three teams of two

4 people, two teams of two and if there is an odd number everyone is on their own

 

[Noyyau]

What have we ever done to you?

(We would crush anything in our way! Resistance would be futile )

When i find myself in times of trouble
Sid Meiers comes to me
Singing words of wisdom
Subbbbing!

 

[CaterpillarKing]

nice Beatles. Also, I suck at MP so I need a teammate, if I play.

I try to image that being sung by Paul McCartney, but, but, I just can't.

 

[CaterpillarKing]

I can and it is amazing

I suck at MP too, we can be the teammates that gradually get better than everyone in the game.

 

[CaterpillarKing]

no offense but I don't want to be killed instantly we can try it though
