Setting up IP Games XL - Page 5

Makeo · November 30, 2002, 19:06

A big sorry to DD, Running Water and Trev and a curse on my computer/isp.
Yesterdays game was shaping up nicely until my computer went mental. At first it wasn't disconecting me just not sending or receiving any data, eventually it would disconect me and then I couldn't get back online.

Ming · November 30, 2002, 19:12

As usual... I have no clue when I will be available tonight but probably not until late. Maybe I can sub for somebody if you guys get off to an early start. I'll check in when the family crashes.

HawkHunter · November 30, 2002, 20:22

i am here to play if ya start 1 up tonight. early or late

War4ever · November 30, 2002, 21:16

i am going to a christmas party at work, but my date doesn't want to stay late, eat and run she said, but as per usual, that could change,

send me a message later when the late game starts guys

gonzo_for_civ · December 1, 2002, 02:07

If anyone wants to sub for me in a little bit ICQ me.

163687508

I got off to an ok start. One city taken by te barbs though

Please ICQ me quickly if you want to take over!

Ming · December 1, 2002, 13:23

Well... Baron O was nice enough to sub for a while...

Thanks for the game last nite guys. After getting off to a very slow start, I made up for it later

Hydey · December 1, 2002, 17:16

Ming.

Its not fair waiting until Baron O joins the game before getting into gear.

Ming · December 1, 2002, 17:18

I was doing fine long before Baron O showed up... plus, he was on the other side of the world

Flatlander Fox · December 1, 2002, 19:55

I might be around tonight for either a duel or some scenario play. Sunday night Civ!

Baron O · December 2, 2002, 17:08

hydey

ming was already on his way before i showed, but i see why gonzo was sleepy if barbs had taken me down to 3 cities and about to take another one. i would be sleepy too

thanks for let me sub for a while. i hope my leg heals up so i can spend more than an hour at a time behind puter

War4ever · December 2, 2002, 18:12

I'll play you in either, I don't care...

My cable modem has been acting up the last couple days, so I gotta return it... Hopefully that fixes my problems.

It's not fair! They landed 2 archers next to a city that could, if building was rushed, possibly have had 1 defender but didn't because I was expanding. No way to fight it

But hey, good luck with your leg

War4ever · December 3, 2002, 02:16

welcome to my lair the spider said to the fly..or some crap like that....

The thing is fox, i just don't know when i am going to kill you.....i will have to play it by ear, and it must be on a world stage of course ..haha

yeah a duel will be fine for some fun, but only in a four man game can i get my revenge

Berzerker · December 3, 2002, 13:49

Well folks, I'm screwed! ISP appears to be history so I'm posting this from the local library. It'll be at least 2 weeks before this all gets straightened out

Sure glad I'm not in any ongoing games, and thank God I can still submit my picks for the Lombardi League in which Team Rush has been really making a comeback.

Nice job Rabbit, that's 2 weeks you won now and I've gone from dead last to a tie for fourth!!!

I'd be in the lead if not for missing the first week.

Ming · December 3, 2002, 14:15

Sorry to hear that Berz... when I saw that you had posted to this thread, my first thought was "GREAT, BERZ IS BACK IN ACTION"... and then I read you post.. sigh. Good luck on your ISP... but not on your Lombardi Picks

rah · December 3, 2002, 14:27

Ditto

War4ever · December 3, 2002, 16:34

yeah hurry back berz, we miss your competition

Lars-E · December 3, 2002, 17:23

Can I join the next game.

Ming · December 3, 2002, 19:00

Lars-E... the fact that you show as 7 hours ahead of us in the central time zone might make that difficult. Usually, the games started in this thread begin between 7 and 8 cst... which based on looking at your local time would mean 4 or 5 am for you

We always welcome new players to our group... (please read the Rah Rules Thread in this forum to see the usual rules we play by), but it's usually hard for us to set up games with people in Europe because of the time differences...

War4ever · December 3, 2002, 20:44

well he could wake up early on a weekend to play

rah · December 4, 2002, 13:07

For those that don't routinely check out the strat forum.

YOU'LL find this one worth the effort

Flatlander Fox · December 4, 2002, 14:08

Thanks for the link.

Tested on three different maps, and it works quite well.

War4ever · December 4, 2002, 16:36

CHEATING

oh well, most of the fun is out of the game now hahahhahhaha

rah · December 4, 2002, 17:29

Oh, tell me that after 3 huts from one 4 pattern and 1 from one other that you don't know where the rest are.

This just makes it easier.

Hydey · December 4, 2002, 17:37

Next thing they will tell us to load the map on another computer to see the huts.

As rah says, after a few huts, we all know where the rest will be... however, after a few beers, this will be a nice reminder

Berzerker · December 4, 2002, 18:09

I still haven't analyzed hut patterns after all this time. Btw, posting from local library again since I couldn't make my Lombardi picks yesterday... Looks like I'll miss the next 2 Fridays at least, but I will be back.

ps...I don't need luck picking football games

Ming · December 4, 2002, 18:14

Berz... really... I thought all of the veterans knew that stuff by heart
