Smash · September 5, 2000, 22:19

MWHC-out-He'd go crazy fast playing the slow paced dinosaur that is civ.

Empress · September 5, 2000, 22:43

are we talkin 2x2x or 1x1x... everyone knows how I feel about 1x1x games ::insert puke smilie::

Smash · September 5, 2000, 23:29

Rich says I should form an alliance....

Shadowstrike · September 6, 2000, 18:23

I would spend the entirity of the last 14 days just playing one huge turn! That's where my style of play would take me anyhow.

Seriously, I would probably be frustrated out of my head by the third week. I'd be trying to beat Civ2 Diety/Raging Hordes while sleeping... and my Civ skill level isn't very high right now...

Wait is is classic civ or a scenario? SP or MP?

Shouldn't this be Civ2 Big Brother?

DarkCloud · September 6, 2000, 21:30

Yes, technically this should be CIV II Big Brother; however it sounds better when you say 'Civ Survivor- Who will live and who will die of exhaustion or be voted out.'

In answer to your other question:

This is Civ II single player and Test of Time.

Also... On day two four silver shiny boxes arrive marked 'Civ II Multiplayer Gold Edition'... The contestant scramble over one another fighting to get the game, but most fight in vain.

At the end of the altercation the few who escape with a box are:
Alexander's Horse, The Joker, Andyz83, and Shadowstrike

Due to their evil brawling skills picked up due to their long stays on the Apolyton Forums they win the only copies... Only to find the editions are extremely buggy. However The Joker uses his great programming skills to debug the programs for the others.

No one survives the day without a few bruises.

-My vote for who should be voted out is Alexander's Horse because he cannot defend his position by cross-voting me out because he is banned for a week.
(Sorry Alexander, it was the logical course to go with.)

CornMaster · September 6, 2000, 22:59

Although all these people are good people I must vote off Andz83.
He resurrected many useless threads by simply saying "Good descussion guys, keep it up."
All the net-time I wasted waiting for a thread to load that was started in Dec. 1999 really annoys me and I have to say Andz83 must go. And I'm sure others would agree with me.
(Please don't kill me, eat him he's the roast, I'm just the fish stick

Sorry Andz83.)

DarkCloud · September 7, 2000, 22:08

Okay, let us see who is off- Alexander's Horse [(Sept 6) 1 Vote] is out due to an overruling vote by me, but for the 7th I believe AndyZ83 [(Sept 7) 2 Votes ]is out for the same reason Shadowstrike states.
My gosh that was a cheap way to increase ones hit count, albeit a smart idea.

Oh! I overlooked SMASH's vote. My Wife hates CIV is out. [(Sept 5) 1 Vote]

-The remaining contestants are slowly going crazed. They need your help to escape... Or else they may die. They plead for mercy... which can only be bought by voting them out or their deaths at the console of their screens... which will it be?

Smash wins the immunity challege by getting Philosophy first

So long Imran...outski.

The SGs introduce the Virtual CD and all now have copies of MPGE - the battle hots up!

How do you know that I'm not already crazy?

*grabs a copy of MPGE and loads it ad starts to play ICS*

MUWHASHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

*gets voted off*

Dang.

Note: That didn't count. And I didn't vote Andy off.

Seriously though, I'd challenge everyone else to a alliance match now... two versus two versus two, versus AI and hacked Barbarian Wrath Barbs.

DarkCloud · September 8, 2000, 21:56

Yes you voted AndZ83 off Shadowstrike, I have that vote in writing unless you changed it.

A few of the players have now been reduced to drooling zombies. However due to their die-hard nature they continue on... "Must...have...one...more...turn..."

-Bathroom privlidges have been revoked.
It's about to get a little messy.

Imran Siddiqui is out by SMASH and My vote, however it is probably for the best as he is developing 'box eyes' staring at the computer screen.

DarkCloud · September 9, 2000, 13:58

Nooooooo....!!!! Fiend! :G
I have been voted out of the room but will exact my vengance by placing a vote to vote Shadowstrike out of the room

Shadowstrike · September 9, 2000, 14:23

Quick Andz... vote DarkCloud off!

*lands on Alpha Centauri*

Yahoo! So who's next?

*realizes that it wasn't him who landed on AC*

Dang.

September 9, 2000, 15:24

I won't vote anyone out! I find this whole thread so stupid...

OK, I hereby vote DarkCloud out! just to do Shadowstriek a favour

but this thread is still stupid and has to be deleted!

But all the threads that you spammed on just to increase your post count wasn't stupid!!!!!
I'm not saying the original thread was stupid just your cheap maneuver.

Didn't I mention it? I changed my vote to DarkCloud

Oh and I summon a zombie to drool for me so that I don't waste any time to play Civ....

September 11, 2000, 11:58

settle down, mate!

kcbob · September 11, 2000, 13:37

I feel like Butch Cassidy... "Who are these guys?" I don't recognize half the names on the list.

With that in mind, might as well start at the top. Admiral Naismith... out. Sorry.

September 11, 2000, 13:49

just a moment... what do I have to hear, Shadowstrike? so, did he vote me out or not? aren't their any official lists done here, so that everyone can see who voted whom out?

DarkCloud · September 11, 2000, 21:52

Well, if you want a list of who's out:

Sept 5- My Wife Hates CIV
Sept 6- Alexander's Horse
Sept 7- AndZ83
Sept 8- Imran Siddiqui
Sept 9- Dark Cloud
Sept 10- Shadowstrike

Sept 14- Deathwalker
Sept 15- Phunny Pharmer
Sept 16- Christantine the Great
Sept 17- UltraSonix
Sept 18- Yin26
Sept 19- Dr. Oogkloot

-After September 10 the contestants will be allowed 10 hours of sleep a day, A recent source was quoted as saying- "we just couldn't let the survivors die."

-kcBob- How can you not know these people, especially the above, they are the true veterans of the forum, they are the people who log 80+ hours at their computers a week just to look at and write on the Apolyton Forums! :g

Well I'm glad I got out while I did, some of the other people attempted suicide. Oh well, I guess I'll help them along by voting Par4 Out.

I have to vote out the diplomat before he sabotages something.

I did say that I knew half of them. For example, I am familiar with MWHC, Horse, Empress, Smash, SG, Oldman, Oogkloot, and CYBERAmazon. I'll bet the lack of awareness has to do with which forums we all post on. I'm usually on this one and "Strategy". Either that or my medication has stopped working.

Actually, I'm just hurt I wasn't invited to play.

Maybe they'll let me play Big Brother. Ya think?

SCG · September 12, 2000, 08:28

I would just like to echo kcbob's sentiments as well. I have no clue as to who half the people in the list are

I've read nearly every non-archived post in the Civ II strategy forum, as well as quite a few of the archived posts. I've read all the posts in this forum and the civ II help forum since mid may, and never once came across some of these true verterans

hmm, here's a thought. I heard that quite a few of the cast members on big brother show have decided to quit and will be replaced. perhaps kcbob could get his just due from being omitted from the this list be being a late addition

I hereby nominate kcbob as an official replacement in the Civ survivor cast

------------------
April Cantor: Sire, in order to expand further we must first gain favor of the King

SCG: darn, I've never really got the hang of that tribute thing, guess it will be a long time until i make prince

*goes off and starts gifting gold and techs*

Shadowstrike · September 12, 2000, 18:00

Note to all: I never voted Andz off. The entire incident was a figment of DarkCloud's imagination. Thank you.

*flees*

DarkCloud · September 12, 2000, 20:46

Sorry Shadowstrike for some reason I thought you were CornMaster. I have no idea how that happened.

Okay, kcbob can replace CYBER Amazon who doesn't post much anymore except in the OT.

The full story:
(a joke story)
CYBER Amazon, failing to keep awake, but not wanting to lose committed suicide by electrocution whilst trying to shock-stimulate alertness after running out of pep pills.

The remaining contestants despise kcbob for having an easier time; i.e. less time in isolation, up for 24 hours.

My vote is for Par4.

However the diplomat is voted out by Smash today.
Hopefully Par will be gone tommorrow.

Thanks for the invite. I do agree with the notion that I'll have an easier time. Tell you what? I'll bring Krispy Kreme doughnuts to the island.

MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

*Realizes that his has already been voted off*

Dang.

Of course it is a big secret that I am playing the Barbarians in this scenario and will be the last one standing!!
