Replacement players wanted - Page 3

Misotu · October 12, 2000, 00:39

I'll take the Gaians, Paul, if you haven't already had an offer ...

Paul · October 12, 2000, 00:58

I haven't had any other offers yet. Please mail Tau Ceti for the password and ask Tigtoad to send you the turn when he gets back from his two week absence.

It seems Nigel has (hopefully) temporarily dropped out of ACT034 and ACT037, so if anyone would be interested in either of these games could they please post below. A few details on these games:

ACT034
The players:
Stephen Barnes - Gaians
Sunchaser - University
Nigel (to be replaced) - Spartans
Simpson II (replaced by mark13) - Peacekeepers

I'm afraid I can't give you much more on Nigel's situation than that, as he has seemingly disappeared.

ACT037
The players:
Helium Pond - Hive
Hobbes.1 - University
Nigel (tbr) - Morganites
mark13 - Peacekeepers

Again, I can't give you much info, apart from the fact that Nigel has met me. It was also a reasonably quick game.

As I said, we are not certain as to the length of this replacement, but in the event of Nigel not returning, it may become permanent. Or it could be for a couple of days. We just don't know.

Thanks Googlie, if you could contact Tau Ceti for the password we can get these shows on the road!

Tau Ceti · December 16, 2000, 18:32

AXT032 could also use a replacement player. The applicant will take over the drones, and the year that has been reached is only 2109, so you would get them pretty much from the start.

December 16, 2000, 22:03

I'm interested in taking over the drones in AXT032.

Googlie · December 17, 2000, 01:04

I'll pick them up - and i'm OK with turning them back over to nigel as necessary

Hello Paul! Hey, how about putting in a good word for our CTP rating system under the AC-Multiplayer thread called "Ladders"? We are trying to maybe incorporate the same "type" of rating system over here in Alpha Centauri! I believe you are the only person that I know that plays both CTP and SMAC, and is also a RATED CTP player. So your opinion would be most valuable!

Paul · December 17, 2000, 04:12

Emjaycue appears to be missing from AXT025.

Tau Ceti · December 17, 2000, 07:36

Hobbes gets the AXT032 drones.

Emjaycue is also missing from AXT019 (Consciousness, 2127 or thereabouts).

big_canuk · December 17, 2000, 14:57

I'll volunteer for axt032

Tau Ceti · December 17, 2000, 15:52

Sorry, BC, as you can see Hobbes posted before you and has already got the AXT032 Drones. Emjaycue's AXT019 and AXT025 positions are still available.

mark13 · December 17, 2000, 17:28

I would be interested in AXT019....

Tau Ceti · December 17, 2000, 17:49

Whoops, misprint. That should be (Hive, 2127 or thereabouts). Still interested?

mark13 · December 17, 2000, 17:58

The Hive....go on then, anything for a challenge....

Paul · December 18, 2000, 01:31

By the way, in AXT025 you would take over the Gaians in M.Y. 2129.

WhiteElephants · December 18, 2000, 04:40

AXT019!!!

Surely, you can't be serious! If I recall correctly everyone has been missing from that game for... for... for I can't even remember how long!

Tau Ceti · December 18, 2000, 09:10

Password sent to mark13. The game is rather old, but a resurrection attempt had moderate success a couple of weeks ago, until emjaycue disappeared. I do not know why you remember, though, as you are not in it...

Deimos · December 18, 2000, 16:24

Tau,

Sorry about the delay in getting notice to you, but due to increased responsibilities at work, I am not going to be able to continue my participation in any of my current games. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Deimos

WhiteElephants · December 18, 2000, 18:48

All right! All right! You caught me. There is no reason I should remember AXT019, but damned if I don't remember AXT018! So what happend to that guy? Did he just skip out on AXT018 and went on playing his other games?

December 18, 2000, 19:59

I'd be interested in taking over the Gaians in AXT025 if its still free. Also you can put me down for a couple of Deimos's games also.

Hobbes

WhiteElephants · December 19, 2000, 18:40

Hey, forget about it Chief. I think we all lost interest eons ago. I was just surprised when I saw AXT019 and mistakenly thought it was the game AXT018 that I was previously in.

Tau Ceti · December 20, 2000, 01:12

Hobbes gets the AXT025 Gaians and Deimos's AXT030 Consciousness. As he has already taken over the Drones in AXT032, also giving him control of Deimos's Pirates there seems a bit excessive, so that one is still up for grabs.

WE: AXT018 is indeed ancient. Last post July 23, and that was nearly a month after the last turn. Looks like edgecrusher/self biased disappeared. Now joer has officially retired, and I assume demomedic left after all his games died. So a resurrection would probably require three replacement players. Better to let it lie.

This game serves as a nice illustration of the fact that I cannot do anything about stalled games if I do not know about them, and I do not have the time to continually scour the boards for game threads that have not had posts in two weeks. So the best way to ensure the survival of your game is to email me.

Tau Ceti · January 12, 2001, 20:38

AXT036 (Transcend) could use a replacement Drone player. The game has not even played a single turn, so no useless terraforming and worthless cities to worry about.

We also have a new vacancy as the Hive in ACT037 (Thinker, I believe). This one has reached 2134.

Post here if you want one or both.

big_canuk · January 13, 2001, 20:51

I'll take AXT036 if still availiable. I need some Drones practice

I'm a newbie with multiplaying AC but if you want, i'll take the Hive!

I have the french version of SMAC & SMACX with all
the patchs installed.

Thank you both! I have sent you the needed information, and hopefully you will receive the turns soon.

Louis, I used the address in your profile. If that is not the one you want to use, let me know.

That's ok. Thanks to you.

Tau Ceti · February 19, 2001, 20:12

We could also use a replacement Morganite in ACT041. The year is 2119, Thinker difficulty.

Misotu · February 19, 2001, 21:08

Oh, what the hell. I'm *rubbish* at Morgan, so I could use the practice. I'll take ACT041.
