Merc, Barono, Epik, Spider...

Thanks all for playing last night. The game moved along real nice. It was good to get an early start for a change.

I still can't believe I have the only wonders built and its 1500 BC. I guess the barbarians were really causing you guys problems. (thank god for early phalanxs)

As I mentioned last night, if you want to continue this game, I can usually play on Tuesdays or Thursdays, since Wednesday night is usually a different bunch and we are trying to continue a game.

Let me know...

I would play MP... but I suck. I like playing more relaxed games where everyone is not so hung up on winning like Xin or Eyes.

Xin just takes too long (which is cool - he's real good) and Eyes... well, we dont need to go there.

I need to find a group of people who just enjoy playing for fun - with a few battles mixed in there.

Spider · September 28, 2000, 17:23

Hmm, it's been awhile since I've had a calculus class, but wouldn't the game go twice as fast if we played on BOTH Tuesdays AND Thursdays?

I'm good for either night.

Epik · September 28, 2000, 19:30

Well it does not look very good for the Borg. Falling way behind on the power graph. That hut legion that wiped out my second city about 3000 bc was the cause of my problems. However I am willing to continue. I figure that I can hang around for awhile and have some fun harrassing the other players. Perhaps this will be a good time to try out fundamentalism... so keep an eye out for guys with torches.

I am available tonight.

Beware the cornered Borg.

Epik

Well i am good for either night as well. Icq me because this stupid thing is all buggy on my end and i can't ever get back to anyone. After the game with you four, i played another and he got booted then my icq went sour, and well we have to continue. I have had to resort to posting stupid messages. Anyways pls remember me for next time

rah · September 29, 2000, 00:21

mwhc, they guys we're playing with now pretty much line up with your expectations. A few are on the less experienced side, so you might discover that you don't suck as bad as you think you do.

Ming · September 29, 2000, 08:27

Why don't we try for next Tuesday, October 3rd.

On Monday, post if and when you might be available.

Let's see if we can continue this one

Ming · October 3, 2000, 08:15

Just bumping this up to the top to see if people are interested in continuing this one tonight...

If you see this, post even if your interested, just so we know.

Mercantile · October 3, 2000, 13:02

i am interested, but the baseball playoffs start tonite

i would be better for thursday this week and or wednesday but i believe i remember you people stating that you were playing a different game on Wed.

BTW i hope no one changed their rules txt

I am shocked enough as it is by what goes on around here.

I really want to continue this game as its the only MP game i seem to have going other than one with Berz and Crusty which seems difficult to continue.

However i am not against a sub for my civ for a session if you must play this one tonite. I can't be here for it

Cheers and have a blast without me!

Ming · October 3, 2000, 13:15

Mercantile... what a wimp... I plan on having the baseball playoffs on right next to my computer so I can play and watch

(not that I really care since the stupid networks decided to put the White Sox on during the day for the first two games)

But, if you can't multi task... I understand. Maybe Thursday then. We haven't discussed the use of subs... and with problems going on about subs, maybe we shouldn't risk it... HA HA HA HA!

Epik · October 3, 2000, 14:36

I will be online this evening about 6:30 PM central time. ICQ me if this game will be resumed then. The Tribe and the Reds are out of the playoffs, so I do not much care about them this year. So, they will not be a distraction to my gaming....

Spider · October 3, 2000, 17:01

I'll be here at 6:30 central, too. The Brewers haven't been in the playoffs since 1982; so no worries there, but next year... (I'm starting to feel like a Cub fan.)

Oh, well, no sense continuing the game tonight if Merc can't make it. Try for Thursday, I guess.

Ming · October 3, 2000, 17:53

Yeah, with out Merc...

But, I will be sitting around watching the playoffs...
So, if somebody wants to play a game for a few hours

Makeo · October 3, 2000, 18:34

me

Spider · October 3, 2000, 18:39

I'll be here. There was another game that we were thinking of continuing tonight, with Berz, Epik and East Haven, but I'm sure everyone would agree to put that off for another time; so it looks like Epik, myself, Berz and East Haven should be around at the usual time. (That being 6:30 central)

(Hmm, probably wrong thread for this.)

Ming · October 3, 2000, 18:42

Sounds like a full house

I'm just sitting around watching the White Sox (damn, Seattle just tied it up in the 7th)

So I can play anytime. And, It looks like Makeo "MIGHT" be interested too... do you still have me on ICQ Makeo?

Hope to catch a bunch of you soon!

Makeo · October 3, 2000, 19:43

might?

Spider · October 3, 2000, 19:53

Makeo: You make it a little hard for us stupid Americans to figure out what you mean with these one word posts.

Makeo · October 3, 2000, 20:00

I want to play a game right now. I have been waiting for ages and i have to play, i need to play so why won't anyone play with me. What is the hold up, why aren't we playing, I want to play I want to play I want to play. When are we going to play, do you think we will play soon. Who is going to play? are you going to play, is ming going to play. i want to play i want to play. Is it illegal to play? I don't think so. It wasn't illegal to play, last time I played. Last time I played was such a long time ago, i have trouble remembering the last time i played. I want to play. What settings will we play on? I haven't played double production for a long time either. I wan't to play. Can we play now please?

Spider · October 3, 2000, 20:04

If I understand this correctly, you'd like to play a game at 19:00 Apolyton time, or thereabouts.

Me, too.

Makeo · October 3, 2000, 20:09

isn't the time 20.08 already?

Spider · October 3, 2000, 20:18

Yeah, I thought Ming got ahold of you already. I'm just waiting for Ming, I think he might be delayed by the White Sox Game. One more out left in that game.

Ming · October 4, 2000, 08:01

Yeah... I am sorry for the delayed start last night.
But as I tried to explain, there was a problem at Apolyton that had to be dealt with

Thanks for playing guys... it was a fun.

Mercantile · October 4, 2000, 22:07

Ming i appreciate you holding off on the game i am in unitl i could play again. I do know how to multitask, alas, i was out for the day and evening

I am good for thursday night this week though if you guys can continue.

Cheers and thanks again.

Spider · October 10, 2000, 19:45

Well, it's 7:30 Apolyton time. I'm here on the off chance this game will continue tonight. I can't even remember which game this was. Was this the game that Merc was trying out Xin Yu's "size 5" strategy?

Ming · October 10, 2000, 20:51

You should have posted to this earlier today...

A little warning always help.

My wife is out tonight. usually a good thing for civ, but I'm playing mr mom... and i have to get my little one into and out of the shower...
