I am not sure i could trust you

i mean i have total respect for your tribe patriotism, must be like being an american i guess

but i am very offended by slows asertion regarding my reading ability ... here is his question from the poll

Quote:

Let's take a vote.
Either No Wonder, or 1 Wonder Only

and this from the thread that started it all

Quote:

Rasputin, I've been trying to drum up interest in a No Wonder or One Wonder Only game for months. Deity or not.
Too many players just can't hang without Wonders.

so where oh where is the reference to one wonder per person !@@@@@

Hydey · July 24, 2001, 09:40

I must admit Raz, I thought it was one wonder per person and not one for the game but I will play either way.

Funny how we all read the same words and come up with different things.

SlowwHand · July 24, 2001, 10:15

Good Hydey.

I guess I was counting too much on it being fairly self explainatory.
The thought of 1 Wonder in whole game and making a mad dash for the 1 Wonder never occurred to me.
It's the thought of which 1 Wonder each Civ will take, not who can build a Wonder the fastest.
Maybe with Eyes? He likes duels and that's more along those lines.

Rasputin · July 24, 2001, 10:16

well hydey i still cant see any refernce to per player anywhere.... I brought up in my poll re does any one ever play deity no wonders game .... then sloww remarked he wanted a game and so began all the polls...

so how do you explain that !!!!!

drinking agai nwere you or is it stil lthe bump on the head

SlowwHand · July 24, 2001, 10:23

He repeateth,

No mad dash at all Slooww,, if that one wonder is Apollo , doesnt matter who builds it, in fact a lot of advantage not to build it therebey wasteing valuable Shields, Becomes quite interesting .... You should try it one day.... The winner isnt the one to build apollo but the one who either gets to AC or wipes out the other civs first...

You will do fine.

Deity Dude · July 24, 2001, 14:56

Sloww - i was confused too. - i thought the no wonder vs 1 wondeer debate was whether or not we were going to allow space flight. What your saying is someone can go for leo's and someone else Mike's? I think i would prefer the first method.

P.S. I would add Manhatten (2wonders) but no nukes so we could have nuke powered space flight.

PPS I hope everyone would forget about what tribe they are on for this game - especially since im not on any

SlowwHand · July 24, 2001, 17:29

Just forget the whole damn thing.

Boann, Cavebear, and whoever else that knew what it was or has interest in will play.
The rest of you can splinter off with Rasputin and do whatever parameters you want.

War4ever · July 24, 2001, 19:15

Wow sloww..... your grumpy this week

SlowwHand · July 25, 2001, 01:14

Does that mean you want in War4 ?

Tell me about it. Its been like playing civ with my girlfriend this week.

So when's this show gettin' on the road?

SlowwHand · July 25, 2001, 01:49

If Hydey wants in still, how about noon CST US time Saturday?
CST is -6.

This is 1 Wonder per Civ.

Dylan Baker · July 25, 2001, 01:53

Sunday is MUCH better for me. I have college buddies coming in from out of town, so Saturday is basically a wash for me....

If our times are incompatable, then I can withdraw my name and look forward to our impending tribe game.

boann · July 25, 2001, 14:54

cavebear · July 25, 2001, 20:57

OK, so much confusion and misunderstanding. Let me see if I can think my way through it.

First - Chris, when you mentioned loyalty to "Tribe", I thought you meant GameLeague Tribes. I think now that you meant your in-game allies, whoever they may be. Personally, I agree with you on that, I just misunderstood "Tribe" in this context. Please come back, it was only a question of semantics. It is obvious that you are thinking of loyalty in the game exactly as I do.

Second - "One Wonder" was, I thought, to mean only Spaceflight (Apollo). My question at that point was only whether or not Fusion should also be allowed in order to power the Spaceships (I've never built a non-Fusion SS). I have never played a "one Wonder per player" game, so I have to admit that that didn't occur to me. I apologize for misunderstanding on the matter.

Either a Spaceflight only (with or without Fusion) OR a one Wonder per person game seem equally interesting, and I would be delighted to go either way on this one.

Were there any other misunderstandings to clear up?

Yep. When are we starting?

Rasputin · July 26, 2001, 19:43

does Fusion require manhattans ?? cant see that on my tech tree.. it doesnt mention manhattasn at all

War4ever · July 26, 2001, 20:31

if its only one wonder..... and near the end game..... i will take manhattan......you take brazil

Rasputin · July 26, 2001, 22:31

does anyone know the amnswer to my question

Yes, I do indeed believe in such loyalty.
I left in the mistaken belief in someone had done something to me, and I was totally wrong, and way off. It's up to them if I return, but I wouldn't blame them if they were mad, as it would be completly justified.

My understanding is each Civ can build one wonder, but others could be had through conquest.

I have no problem either way, but it's not up to me, it's up to the person I wrongfully insulted.

SlowwHand · July 27, 2001, 02:07

Ok. Sometimes, many times, I am not clear.

Who is interested in a 1 Wonder Per Civ Game ?

This weekend?

General Maximus · July 27, 2001, 15:25

i am intersted in a one wonder per civ game.

i can only play sunday.

question:- if i build my one wonder, and conquer another civ, then i have two wonders?

let me clarify, then agree or disagree:-

one wonder may be BUILT by each civ.

so at the end of the game i'll have 7 wonders?

War4ever · July 27, 2001, 19:30

With all due respect General.... what makes you think your going to conquer the wonders........

SlowwHand · July 27, 2001, 19:32

Following your reasoning, yes you could have 7 Wonders.
One built by each Civilization.

I think you are correct. Looking at the tech-tree chart, it seems clear that, while you need Fission to get to Fusion, it is not required that the Manhattan Project be built to allow that. I guess I was thinking more of nukes than the MP.
