Devoted PTW Players

Inverse Icarus · October 26, 2002, 02:50

I propose we make and maintain a list of members for a "Devoted PTW Players" group, in which we could play games with.

theres a few reasons i'd like this:[list=1][*]We could play on a more long-term basis[*]we could play once or twice a week, and actuall FINISH some good games[*]we could avoid all those clans, cheap tactics, etc[*]We could play quality scenarios whenever they come out

, much like the Civ2 Scenario community[*]it would be hella fun[/list=1]

anyone interested?

I'm good, but most Monday-Wednesday-Fridays are a bit harsh on me, so try to avoid those days.

P.S. If anyone wants to play MP scenario, I recommend my Napoleonic Wars scenario

(once it's completed).

Inverse Icarus · October 26, 2002, 03:39

i'd gladly beta test the MP napoleonic wars

but let's stay on topic

Wise Ass · October 26, 2002, 03:59

I'm in, though I suck at the game and, my pesky boss expects me to go to work

notyoueither · October 26, 2002, 05:37

Good idea. Some agreements about some rules may also evolve.

Devoted PTW players? It sounds great-do it! Unfortunately I won't be abe to join, since I hardly have more than 5 hours free each week.

Jethro83 · October 26, 2002, 08:33

Great idea. I'm in.

Cidifer · October 26, 2002, 09:56

sounds like an idea but it may be hard to track all these people on the forum. Maybe if you had your own forum or cheap web site it would work better (but that can probably wait until you get a few people and the games comes out).

For the time being , you can count me in.
I do still have hope of ever getting a real live though

ixnay · October 26, 2002, 13:39

I like the sound of that. But with my taking 19 credits, as well as a new job coming up soon (

) I don't know if I'd have the time.

Cidifer · October 26, 2002, 14:54

wait a minute, are you going to montana state university? (that's what it says next to your name) if so what town is that in (is Bozeman a town? if so I've never heard of it)? I know someone up in Montana that's starting classes there soon, just wondering if it's the same school.

Tassadar500 · October 26, 2002, 14:55

Im definatly in.

ixnay · October 26, 2002, 15:05

Yeah, I'm at MSU and it's in Bozeman.

Cidifer · October 26, 2002, 15:18

well then that's not the town he's in, I can't remember what it's called but it's a small town with alot of college age kids.

ixnay · October 26, 2002, 16:20

Missoula? That's the University of Montana.

MSU has schools in Havre and Billings as well, I believe.

Inverse Icarus · October 26, 2002, 16:58

ack, i said BACK ON TOPIC

Cidifer · October 26, 2002, 17:05

Missoula sounds like it.

Also this topic isn't really a "topic" anyway, it's more of a sign up sheet, where people are just saying "I'm in."

Jack_www · October 26, 2002, 17:24

I would like to put my name in. I dont know yet when I will be able to play, but when I do I will let the people I play know.

aahz_capone · October 26, 2002, 20:58

I'm definately in. I will be new dimensions iknto the diplomatic world of civ! However my playing times *may* be limmited... But I'm all for someone keeping a record of players and they're traits/styles/favciv/win% so that everyone can see I'm such a nice and trust worthy guy...

Inverse Icarus · October 26, 2002, 21:45

it'd be interesting to have a stats sheet with that info aahz... *someone* could make a PHP-based system if given proper hosting.

Falconius · October 26, 2002, 22:14

I'm there, dude.

Sharpe · October 26, 2002, 23:06

Seeing this thread reminded me of an idea I thought about a while back.

How about creating a Civ 3 MP Players Database which could contain such information as:

- Player Name
- Preferred Level or range of levels
- Type of Game (Regular, Regicide, Elimination etc.)
- Type of turns (Regular, Turnless, Simultaneous)
- Days Preferred to Play
- Times Preferred to Play
- ICQ or email info
- perhaps even other other games that they play

I posted this idea just now in the Apolyton Community forum as if it is considered to be a good idea, maybe Markos or Dan might be able to allocate some space for this database.

It would be most useful if each person were able to access and change their information themselves like their control panel options here AND that everyone could filter the database information to match their preferred criterias.

redstar1 · October 27, 2002, 07:06

I've been waiting for PTW and certainly looking forward to playing some serious Civ. Count me in.....

Dave

WarpStorm · October 27, 2002, 09:03

Count me in as a not-quite-as-devoted player.

punkbass2000 · October 27, 2002, 11:51

I'd like to be in, though I can't guarantee I'll get PTW ASAP.

Franses · October 30, 2002, 19:15

Count me in but being a European I will not be able to play until November 22 (2002 I hope)

Dominae · October 30, 2002, 22:43

Count me in too; the search for respectable opponents is one that I hate in every MP game.

werdhertz · October 31, 2002, 06:21

count me in as well!!

my email is werdhertz@hotmail.com and i have MSN along with that email so itll be easier to get ahopld of me. I think everyone interested should post theyre email, just so itll be easier to get ahold of them.

notyoueither · October 31, 2002, 07:13

No werdhertz, posting your email is not a good idea. Unless you enjoy visits from the spambots.

Everything useful can be gleened from the Poly profile. No need to advertise for spam.

Jack_www · October 31, 2002, 20:51

I will be able to play tomorrow. Anyone else want to play me a game and has 8 hours to play?
