oh gee what a surprise , the game is not on today .

maybe next year?

Empress · June 29, 2000, 22:18

I'm back! and I will be able to make it to our game saturday! Is it still set for 6est, 5cst???

Empress · July 1, 2000, 16:52

Well, I hope I can stay on tonight. There is a storm brewing and already the thunder is getting bad. I am getting offline until just at game time and then I will hope the storm doesnt' get too bad.

Frank Johnson · July 1, 2000, 17:05

Its game time, do you know where your civers are?

Empress · July 1, 2000, 17:58

I'm here, I'm here!

July 8, 2000, 01:27

This game hehehe no-one ever turnsup for this game

Empress · July 8, 2000, 13:50

I plan on being here for the game tonight! Hydey, are you going to be here? I know Frank has been here for every game so he will probably be here. Anyone heard from Raz or Matt?

Empress · July 8, 2000, 17:19

well, me and Frank/dag are here, where are you guys??

July 9, 2000, 05:39

As I posted earlier if all players confirm before I go to bed Saturday night I will get up early on Sunday for this game .
As this did not happen I did not show up

July 9, 2000, 06:06

Well I was there , but I didnt think the game was on as not everyone posted here....

I available this weekend , but would prefer a change of day to Saturday / Friday night as I have cricket season upon us and would like to attend as many games as I can.. But if no change I will be avaialble ....

July 9, 2000, 18:15

Hey Frank/Dangime... that's a bit unfair about hydey! He has consistently showed EARLY on our Sunday morning; just like you and me. I think it's reasonable to get advanced commitment before getting up early!

I can commit to the next session as per the normal time, ie 8am Sunday in Aust EST which is Sat night USA (6pm)

If all can commit in this thread then I'm sure all will show...

Frank Johnson · July 9, 2000, 19:04

I'll be there, and hey Deity I wouldn't call missing the last 2 weeks consistant.

July 9, 2000, 19:14

Yes Dangime, hydey was consistent up until June 24, 2 weeks back. Now he says he'll show if all commit in advance. I think that's fair and consistent

Would you keep getting up early Sunday morning just in case everyone showed!
Don't answer that, you civ desperate

Well we don't need you hydey my man. If you think its not worth getting up, even when 4 of us show, then I'll just find a better game to play......honestly....I think people are doing this on purpose now.......

The whole world doesn't need YOU !!!
As I stated many weeks ago I would only show up if all players confirm that did not happen so I did not show up , you seem to have a problem with that , well then maybe you should try to get others to at least say they will or won't be here.

FOR THE RECORD- I am available this Sunday but will only show up if ALL players say that they will be here .
If you have a problem with that then that is your problem

Frank Johnson · July 11, 2000, 00:03

My only problem with that is that when we get most of the people to show up, subs could be obtained, but when everyone doesn't make the effort to show it makes in nearly impossible to play, even with subs. For example I doubt you'll ever get Matt to post of this thread. He seems to have fallen off the face of the planet, however if everyone else showed we could play with a sub, but your stance has sabitoged that possibility at least last week......

July 11, 2000, 05:56

Frank .

you for one did not confirm that you would show up last week , only empress did , for which I would like to thank her for her consideration of others. If you (Frank) or Deity or Raz had also confirmed then I probably would have turned on my computer but you didn't have the ability to confirm .

Please don't try and tell me that I am asking too much of people just to post 1 message here as to there intensions of continueing this game

Empress · July 11, 2000, 21:10

yeah, just think of it as an extra post to your post count guys

Frank Johnson · July 11, 2000, 21:56

I don't think its asking too much however its probably unrealistic......

finbar · July 11, 2000, 23:42

Gee, a fistfight over a Diplo game. Isn't that against Diplo rules? Or are minor fistfights allowed?

I humbly apologise Frank I was clearly judging others by my own lofty standards. When I am unavailable I would have trouble sleeping if I failed to inform others !! but it is unfair to ask others to do the same.

I will be here this Sunday morning at 8 am whether anyone posts or not and I am sure if others do not turn up and we cannot play this diplo game , that you will stick around and start a game with me, so that way neither of us will have waisted our time.

July 12, 2000, 04:36

Well I didnt post last week as I thought Empress was stil away, I dont have time to check here as often as I used to , but my ICQ is always open to receive messages....

Empress · July 12, 2000, 22:41

I may need a sub for this saturday. I have a wedding to attend that afternoon and afterwards some of my old high school buddies may go do something. However, I don't know for sure but I would hate to leave you guys hanging w/o warning...

Frank Johnson · July 15, 2000, 18:10

Well its game time, and its me.....and me over there, and lets not forget me.

Deity jumped on long enough to say he wanted a sub, I'm assuming Empress is gone as well at a wedding.....

So Matt's a no show again. Got a message from Raz, but he's a no show too, and Hydey is asleep.

This is most demoralizing....

July 15, 2000, 18:19

I'm here Nuff Nuff man so lets play a game or are you scared of an Aussie

Frank Johnson · July 15, 2000, 18:24

Forget it. I'm gonna play earth 2025. Far as I'm concearned I've won this diplo game.

July 15, 2000, 18:54

There you go

Hydey turns up and Frank won't play so I didn't have to cancel my wifes plans for this Sunday after all .

THANKYOU ALL , YOU SELFISH TURDS

July 16, 2000, 05:59

The game continued today as planned , as I was the only one wanting to play all other civv where controlled by the AI.
If any of you had a problem with that, you would have turned up and played . The AI made many foolish mistakes as you would expect and many wars broke out .
Fortuanately the Sioux people survived and prospered , winning many wars and gaining much new teritory, The game ended with the Sioux space ship landing in the year 1936, with only the Mad Monks as the other remaining civ in the game . I wish to thank all of you for this game and may we enjoy many more in the years to come.

Frank Johnson · July 16, 2000, 11:13

LOL...
Bet I could do it 50 years eariler

Empress · July 16, 2000, 16:24

well, I told you I wouldnt' be able to make it.
