Why don't you get your own login instead of sharing with your father?

And welcome!

Look out world - SG{3} has arrived
Hi I'm SG3 younger subordinate of 1 and 2 (actually, I'm SG[1]'s daughter), I like Civ, but I'm not very good yet!
I have been told that if I read and (try to) understand the threads my game will improve.
This is my first posting, just to tell you that I'm here!
SG{3}

LOL @ Smash - I assure you that 1 daughter is two too many! No more SGs in the foreseeable future.

Trust me, SG1, they're not as bad as step-daughters. The same financial drain, only your authority's limited.

You old guys are soooooo cynical!!! having kids is a wonderful, fabulous and truely astounding thing!! The Joys you get from raising children surely can be nothing short of heaven!! seeing their little bodies and minds develope into living, breathing, thinking people in their own right!! I just can't wait...

SG, why won't you let your kids get their own logins?

Today I had to babysit two kids, a three year old and a three months old. The three month old wouldn't stop crying unless i was holding him or feeding him, and the three year old kept getting a kick out of punching me, or hitting me with a plastic golf club. Are you SURE you want something like that, Oldman?

Like it says Oldman, I'm a University Lecturer in IT (like to think of myself as a programmer) and SG(2)'s a printer - we got to know each other over the bridge table, found we shared a number of interests (including a love of red wine) and when SG2 got a computer I helped to install it - slipped the odd game on to the HDD and the rest is history. There is a little more towards the end of this thread
Good civin'

Does anyone know someone else who "pulls an SG"? Anyone else who have multiple people with the same handle?

Is it just me or did this thread not get bumped up by my post? Do we have topped threads now? Look at the time my last post and then at Ming's thread about the survey. This thread was below it at the time of this post.

That should tell you that Ming's thread is topped. Of course you already knew that, but you had to post it anyway because you want to be a Deity before the end of the week.

SG{3}
I don't want my own handle!
I like sharing with dad for one I don't have to remember the password! and 2 I'm a prince(ss) by proxy.
SandMonkey I put my age in the FAQ and just in case the effort of asking the computer to go back a page is too much I'm 14(nearly 15!)
Oldman even I think kids are more trouble than they're worth and I'm only 14(nearly 15!)
and why can't I be a princess, queen, empress, and of course Goddess?

Emperor Mao sems to sit better than Deity - there was a book once on Mao (Tse-tung, that is), called "Emperor of the Ants".

Maybe a quicker way to Deity is the SG way, just form you family/cartel/corporation login.
