PBEM, Anyone? - Page 10

Adagio · December 9, 2002, 17:05

Ok... I'll try to remember that...

I just sent a new mail (hoping I got the adress right this time). Though the header for this one is "Second Try"

alva · December 9, 2002, 17:13

turn sent to frustrated POET

nice randomness btw , aaarh

FrustratedPoet · December 9, 2002, 17:15

i've received my turn from alva.

i need to send it to buster, but I don't know his email.

Adagio · December 10, 2002, 05:47

I have sent Buster a PM, but he haven't answered yet

FrustratedPoet · December 10, 2002, 05:58

hmmm ... buster's profile says he hasn't posted on Apolyton since the 7th of November:
http://apolyton.net/forums/member.ph...o&userid=14061

If he doesn't respond to the PM soon shall we replace him?

Adagio · December 10, 2002, 08:17

Yes, let's do so... But who wants to play as Buster?

Or maybe we should just restart the game...

FrustratedPoet · December 10, 2002, 08:21

Calc II was the first person on the reserve list, if he isn't available for any reason we should ask SpencerH to play.

We should probably restart the game if we're replacing a player.

Adagio · December 10, 2002, 08:28

Ok... I'll PB Calc II, to see what he says...

alva · December 10, 2002, 14:32

Damn*d, I too checked his profile, but thought it was december the 7the, not november

ahh well, another chance to avoid the French

Trip was :"I suppose so interested"

Adagio · December 10, 2002, 15:26

Should I try to mail Trip tomorow? (To give Calc II a little time to think about it?

Zero · December 10, 2002, 18:00

I'll play... Even though I have another PBEM going with ghengis, its going rather slow... has the civ been chosen for me alredy?

alva · December 10, 2002, 22:23

nope most people have chosen random

I try to contact tiberius btw

hmm, ADG, you're the only one not doing the ptw demo game

.

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 01:43

Unfortunately I can't join. In fact I could, but starting with dec.20 I'll be off town (and off internet

) for 2 weeks, and I don't want to interrupt your game for such a long period. I'm sorry, I wish I could join the "first Apolyton PBEM game"

alva · December 11, 2002, 04:08

Post here when you get back, so when can set something up

In the mean time, have a good holiday, merry x-mas and a happy new-year

Well... you might be back, when we start the "Second Aplyton PBEM game"

But sad to hear, that you wont be here then

Anyway, merry Christmas and a happy new year

Well... the demo game wasn't something for me. I'd sat Max 5 people per team, otherwise it'll be too crowded to me... I need a lot of room

I also have another one going, but that one is slow too... but good to know, you're in

But maybe we are missing even more people now then, since Tiberius now is out of the game, and Buster13 seems to be gone too, and it's been a while, since we last heard from Trip (I'll PM he in a minute)

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 04:54

Thanks for the wishes!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and Good Civin' for everyone!

PS: I have an idea

: Is it possible to change a civ from human to AI and/or from AI to human? If this was possible, I could replace an AI civ when I come back!

Adagio · December 11, 2002, 05:33

I don't know, I have only played one turn, in that other PBEM game I'm playing... or was it two turns... But maybe someone else could give the answer...

Would be nice, if this is possible...

FrustratedPoet · December 11, 2002, 06:02

I don't think it is possible, although I'm not 100% sure of that.

alva · December 11, 2002, 06:40

Or have someone play your turns, while you are gone.
(no FP, not you

)

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 06:45

Hmm, actually that's a good idea!

Hmmm... it should either be Trip or me (since Trip is just before him, and I'm just after him):

ADG: GMT +1
alva848: GMT +1
FrustratedPoet: GMT
Buster13: -5
Trip: GMT -7
Tiberius: GMT +2

Though I'm not that good at this game, so I don't think Tiberius will be happy to have me playing

Thinking about it... I could easily set up a test-game, and see if it's possible to do so... though it wont be now (For some strange reason, I don't think my teachers would like to see me play Civ3 right now, since I have some work to do... hmmm... that reminds me: I have to get back to work... I don't think my teachers likes to see me post here at Apolyton all day

why? afraid that I'd roXXorZ your soXXorZ with two Civs at once?

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 08:09

I'll try to find an outsider. Give me a few hours. If I won't find any, ADG (or Trip) could play for me, if that's OK for you. (I wonder what will happen if I start near ADG. I'm sure he won't rush me!

)

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 13:51

I've asked Vondrack to play for me until I come back and he agreed! I could play myself for a few days, but there's no point in that. Please email Vondrack the save game.

So I'll kick your ass after all !

(well, first Vondrack, then me

)

Adagio · December 11, 2002, 13:53

Good... now we just need his email...

...and Trip or Buster13 to say, they're still in the game...

Tiberius · December 11, 2002, 14:30

I know it but I won't give it to you

Seriously, PM him (he seems to be always online

) about the address. Maybe he doesn't want it to be that public.

alva · December 11, 2002, 14:38

Great

has anyone contacted Trip? or heard from him?
I'll PM him

alva · December 11, 2002, 14:42

Oh, one more thing, ADG, when setting it up..
Could you do one thing, to give new civs randomly, could you write them on a piece of paper and pull them out of a hat, sort of speak.
I would like to see alot of the PTW civs playing in this game

I could do that... now I just need to find a hat

Should I do that, only for the news Civs (for those want the new Civs), or should we say, ALL players should have one of the new Civs, but chosen randomly (by me, and that hat, I have to search for

) ?
