I am sorry guys... but after four years of playing SMAC I have totally hit the wall. While I keep hoping to summon up some enthusiasm for the game it just isn't happening.

So I suggest getting a replacement for me.

Flubber · September 2, 2002, 20:22

I am pretty close to giving up on this game myself due to the long delays.

perhaps 7 player games are just too much. I plan to stay in for now but I hope we can all commit to turning it around a little quicker. I just find that I have no memory or interest for a game I see once every fourteen days.

Googlie · September 2, 2002, 22:58

Well, I have a five week hiatus coming up when I'll be on an extended trip without my laptop. I've canvassed a few lilkelys to sub for me, but no takers.

Maybe we should just let this one die too???

Googlie · September 2, 2002, 22:58

(although half the players were Canadian, eh?)

H0bbes · September 3, 2002, 01:00

RIP.

Tau Ceti · September 3, 2002, 03:47

Well I liked this one - and looking back a bit, it does not seem to have been consistently slow. Actually it has been pretty fast at times. But if nobody else is willing to play on...

Googlie · September 3, 2002, 11:09

I'm certainly willing to play on, but we need a replacement permanently for RedFred and a temp for me (or a five week hiatus)

Googlie · September 3, 2002, 15:40

NorthSwordsman ( swordman@tc3net.com ) will replace RedFred in this game.

So Qantaga, as I believe the turn is with you, can you send to NS (and redFred - if you read this, could you send your password to NS?)

However, NS will be unable to post turns at 'Poly, as they banned him for protesting their "We kill kittens" banner ads of a couple of months ago. (However, I note that in response they changed the ads to read "We love kittens - honestly")

I am still trying to find a sub for my five weeks' absence

Googlie

H0bbes · September 3, 2002, 18:07

Well i'm happy to keep playing.

Banned for protesting a banner? Sounds a bit draconian to me... (looking over shoulder)

Hobbes

Tau Ceti · September 3, 2002, 18:48

I thought he just decided to leave permanently in disgust. I do not recall hearing about a banning, and considering the site history with these things, I think a permanent ban would have been headline news for a long time...

Googlie · September 4, 2002, 01:10

Good news

big_canuck has agreed to sub for me in my absence

So let's get rolling again

Hobbes: I can play the turn up to and including Friday morning Sept 6th, otherwise send to big_canuck at:

kckhnsn@mnsi.net

I'm back at the PC from October 11th onwards

Googlie · September 4, 2002, 09:09

I have heard from Qantaga (who is on the road and finding it difficult to load 'Poly).

He has resent the current turn to NorthSwordsman who hopefully has gotten the password from RedFred, so we should be resuming imminently

'Course NS can't posr either, so I guess it's "watch this space" to see who pops up from time to time with a move.

big_canuk · September 4, 2002, 19:31

Hi guys:

Could you please post the players in turn order with their factions and email addresses.

I looked at the beginning of the thread, but it is not there, and there is no link to the old thread. I guess I should have that to so I can read it to be able to role play effectively.

Lacking history(subject to revision)

Hello out there

I have only had limited formal communications, but it seems from background noise that many survivors from the Unity have landed.

I am brother bible crusher, bbc for short, bc for short short. I will expect you all to worship according to proper doctrine. I will be leading the Believer's for the next 5 weeks.

bc

More on this when I find the rp-thread!

Googlie · September 5, 2002, 13:33

For the concept and starting post, go here.

Flubber · September 12, 2002, 18:37

According to Qantaga the turn is not with him. I am passing along his comments on this game ( he is unable to access poly but is still playing turns)

"RP2 is not with me. I originally sent the turn to RedFred long ago. It
is my
understanding that NorthSwordsman is taking over RedFred's position in
RP2. I
sent the latest RP2 turn to NS last week. The last I heard NS was still
waiting on the password from RedFred, but you may want to post or check
the
status with NS."

Given this comment, I am emailing NS

Flubber · September 13, 2002, 09:46

Northswordsman confirmed that he has the turn from qantaga and is waiting for the password

Flubber · September 16, 2002, 14:03

Does anyone know redfreds email so we can contact him to ask him to pass the password on to Northswordsman ?? Alternately, did we have a moderator in this game. I looked back and have NOT retained the game setup email nor could I easily find the original game thread

big_canuk · September 17, 2002, 09:03

I have RFs email. I will ask him to send the password to NS.

Googlie · September 18, 2002, 01:19

I believe Dilithium Dad CMN'd this one for us

big_canuk · September 18, 2002, 14:58

Just to confirm, that since Brother Googlie got his dongle working, I have been excommunicated.

heh!

Googlie · October 11, 2002, 23:41

Status of this game????

Flubber · October 12, 2002, 01:12

I don't know if redfred ever sent on the password to Northswordsman and even if he has, I know that Northswordsman's wife has had a series of critical head surgeries over the past 2 weeks so he has had a lot more important stuff on the go
