Are There ever gonna be tribes again ?

July 9, 2002, 10:56

Just wondered if their was ever gonna have tribe's again in gameleague or in civfanatics? dagmine perhaps you know of gameleagues or frank Jhonson ? I miss the ol tribel wars..

Frank Johnson · July 9, 2002, 13:41

Geee am I such a forgotten deity of days long past that people are confusing my alter egos as truely seperate people?

I, Frank Johnson, and Dangime are one in the same....and I've never made an effort to hide that fact believe.

And no, I don't plan to revive tribes. The few die hards left playing seem to perfer the groups they play in over the gruff and overcompetitive world of tribes, or ladder play in general.

War4ever · July 10, 2002, 09:40

not likely..there hasn't been any tribe play in about a year, i don't think its the competitiveness thats a problem...

part of it is the x2 move, part is cheating, part is settings, part is the game is older, etc..etc...

civ fanatics site was going to do a tribe league
but they canned it .
some nonsence about waiting for Civ III mp
or they didn't have time to mess with it.
or i don't know , the usual lame excuses.

DrFell · July 11, 2002, 08:18

Damn, tribes were good but I doubt we'll see them again, there have been a few attempts to set them up unofficially but without an actual tribes site it just doesn't work

. Hardly anyone plays team games either, even though they are one of the best ways of playing civ, something I'll never understand.

And yeah, CF really screwed up closing down the tribes system just as it was getting active, although their overly-harsh forum moderation was killing support for their league anyway.

July 11, 2002, 15:31

yes they canned it just as they were getting it going... i just wish there were somewhere where we could get tribes going again.. sure miss those team wars they were fun ..

atawa · July 11, 2002, 16:44

Me and Robbie offered to take over GL and run it for the owners but I dont think they ever responded to it

War4ever · July 11, 2002, 18:37

once could always start a new tribe system somewhere..if you have the time and the money and you know how to find them.......

The A-Team *music* dud de duh da.....da da daaaaaaaaaaa

boann · July 11, 2002, 20:00

yeah ....just do it....

Dank · July 12, 2002, 06:38

Man.......tribe games would rock!!!......seeings that our old tribe is on most of the time....Brave is back so our tribe is complete again.........Boann and Slowhand could always dust off their old tribe also............

War4ever · July 12, 2002, 09:28

now we just need Eyes and the devine tribe to make an appearance and we can talk about this for another month or so

.

however the idea sounds great

DrFell · July 12, 2002, 21:31

Well, I'm all prepared to form a one man tribe

Frank Johnson · July 13, 2002, 00:26

Hahaha....

I will put up an old school orginal civleague tribe style HTML page up for all you old foggies......but I cant do anything better than that and I cant promise instant updates

Plus I'm not gonna worry myself with rosters but I will put up links to your own website if you want with your list. Informal......friendly......

SlowwHand · July 13, 2002, 09:13

True Tribes is nothng like the brain-dead League players, who seem to glory in whomping newbies.
Tribes will come back, somehow. It may not be via Dangime, but it will happen.

SlowwHand · July 13, 2002, 16:10

Jiminy H. Crickets. Well. I'm flattered by the good thoughts. Thanks.

I am, and have been, ready.

War4ever · July 13, 2002, 19:21

boann · July 13, 2002, 19:58

baaaabaaaa

SlowwHand · July 14, 2002, 10:23

I'm told that another site, that will go un-named here

, might be willing to get it going; I understand woke was, hmmm, terminated. (hint,hint)

What someone could do, if they had a forum they keep trying to promote, would be to welcome Tribes with open arms.
Again, I won't mention any names, but his initials are Alexander's Horse.

Chris 62 · July 14, 2002, 10:36

Doesn't that forum have a million pop-ups?

July 14, 2002, 11:12

War4ever · July 14, 2002, 12:41

StrategicKingMi · July 14, 2002, 15:22

First Chris steals my favorite saying and T.V. charachter
(Hannibal Smith and "I love it when a plan comes together)
and then warforever quotes my favorite television theme song..... The A-Team
I did form the brief A-Team tribe but there was just no games to be got....too bad...

(P.S. my name in Gameleague was indeed The-A-Team)

War4ever · July 14, 2002, 15:25

War4ever · July 14, 2002, 15:26
