If the last week was a Civ II MP Game...

SlowwHand · September 16, 2001, 07:07

...what would the game be like?
No peace treaty would have been broken.
No encroachment by allie.

There would be a damaged reputation by the subject player, but they would already have that, and it doesn't matter in MP anyway.

Would it make for a better SP game?

SlowwHand · September 16, 2001, 10:51

You know what would happen. All the other Civ players would ban together.
Civ games do reflect life, and how we're raised.

cavebear · September 16, 2001, 11:21

I disagree. The other players in Civ would rejoice in the weakening of the attacked Civ (by a barbarian city, no doubt) and attempt to take advantage of the situation.

Life is not like Civ. It better NOT be...

I would assume that should this situation have been a civ MP diplogame that other civilizations would have tried to lend money in return for land, or favorable deals. I guess that would mean they took advantage economically

cavebear · September 16, 2001, 15:00

suas!!! I am so glad to hear you are alive and well...

Rasputin · September 16, 2001, 16:01

Ok, if this was a civ game :

1. Duel:::: Other player would have sat back and watched the Barbarians attack and rejoiced

2. Arena:::: The allies would send gold to rebuild the lost city improvments , the other team would rejoice

3. Diplo ::::: The Internet connection would break down jsut before the barbs attacked and the city would be safe, but all the players would be abusing the Phone companies !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've done that in a few diplogames, hehe. True dat.

Yeah, I guess a good question would be: if you were a Civilization observing this barbarion attack in another civ, what would your response be, if any?

Cave, yeah I'm ok, istopped working at the trade center 2 weeks ago : ). I did mention my safety in the thread that was made for DC and NY apolytoners. Hope you didn't know anyone affected.

sounds like a markus spy attack destroying all 10 improvements in many of your cities in one turn

OzzyKP · September 16, 2001, 21:06

Not that i want to jinx this thread, but i'm surprized the authoritarian MarkG hasn't closed this down yet.

Don't hold your breath.

SlowwHand · September 16, 2001, 21:08

I see it as pretty much a diplo game.

It's gotten to the point where you have bombers, and the rogue spy bribes a bomber, and bombs your city.

In this diplo game, wouldn't you be outraged in mass?

Why should he?

SlowwHand · September 17, 2001, 13:05

Because MarkG shut down a Cavebear thread about Civ III MP here, and just shut down a similar one by Cold Wizard just now.

Then yesterday, he shut down a Is Bush an MP or SP Player?, asking me if I had lost track of how many MP vs. SP polls I had started.
The answer would have been no I hadn't lost track, as that was the only MP vs. SP poll of any kind I'd ever posted.
I couldn't answer though, since the thread was locked.

(damn Greek ****er, mutters SlowwHand, as he shuffles off to see what other mischief he can get into)

W-a-n-k, is on the no-go list?

OzzyKP · September 17, 2001, 19:49

You can't say **** now?

What about s****y new clothes? (i.e. s-w-a-n-k-y)

**** has been banned now too.

So if i wanted to go to the off-topic forum and talk about a good movie I just saw: Austen Powers: The spy who ****ged me I wouldn't be able to. Sheesh.

Or if I wanted to talk about that killer TV show Scooby-doo. And Scooby's best friend ****gy the burn-out hippie guy, I couldn't do that either. Zoinks.

Rasputin · September 18, 2001, 00:39

you guys ar egoing way off topic now, but this censorship is necessary as some people have shown that they are too immature to speak witohut swear words, so now those words have been banned, besides the W word is defiantly aNo word for me. shouldnt be used.. The Spy who Shugged Me Though word is probalby a little too far!!

SlowwHand · September 18, 2001, 07:33

Who's butt are you kissing and why?

In III, Fudamentalism should be banned.

General Maximus · September 18, 2001, 14:14
