Frozzy · April 14, 2003, 20:04

Is it GMT - 6 or BST -6?

H Tower · April 14, 2003, 20:51

I'm not familar with BST, which obvisouly means that I'm going on GMT-6

Frozzy · April 14, 2003, 23:36

Okay... does Illi have daylight savings? If so your time is out by an hour :P

H Tower · April 15, 2003, 02:59

fixed time issue, thanks to frozzy for explaining the difference between GMT and BST

H Tower · April 15, 2003, 21:20

Is there something I don't know that keeps people from nominating themesleves?

Frozzy · April 15, 2003, 22:35

Wouldn't it be funny if nobody nominated themselves for anything

Zaphod Beeblebrox · April 16, 2003, 04:08

well, what me kept away so far, was that their wasn't a post in gov announcements until now.

Gilgamensch · April 16, 2003, 04:29

I must admit, I am not sure, if I gonna nominate myself for this turn.

I might be on holiday and not sure, if I'll be able to participate..........

Tamerlin · April 16, 2003, 06:43

Dear Citizens,

I nominate myself for the position of Minister of Domestic Affairs.

Zaphod Beeblebrox · April 16, 2003, 06:51

since i'm lazy, i like to stay in my current office as minister of diplomacy, science and trade

Tamerlin · April 16, 2003, 18:54

Does it mean you nominate yourself to the position of MoDST?

Zaphod Beeblebrox · April 16, 2003, 19:08

is that really necessary?

hmmm.... ok, I'll do so...

Pedrunn · April 17, 2003, 00:19

I think i will take a vacation. The Uni classes are killing me and i want to focus on modding some more, specially the AI code and the city expansion. I hope next turn i can get my job back.

So i will nominate Child of Thor, mapfi, Gilgamesh, IW and Locutus who i do believe will do a good job. I hope some accept my nomination. But i will back any candidate too.

mapfi · April 17, 2003, 08:29

Well, Pedrunn thanks for your trust in me but I can't take another office - I'm already judge.

Come on people
- we need a MoD, does Germany frighten everybody?!
- who's up for Pres?
- and why's the always competed judge position not wanted anymore?

Hey, how did you find out the real resaon I wont try my re-election

nah!

Because the people who wanted them were always the same H Tower, Frozzy, Gilgamesh and you (mapfi). And always running for the same position is boring.
Check this post. I propose a reduction of this positions

Frozzy · April 17, 2003, 16:35

Oh for christ's sake I'll nominate myself for judge

Tamerlin · April 17, 2003, 16:56

Its too late!

Frozzy · April 17, 2003, 17:47

"BST -6"

Just made it

H Tower · April 18, 2003, 02:06

Nominations are closed. Clearly we have a crisis on our hands since half of the positions to be voted on are empty.

huhahu · April 18, 2003, 03:15

I would voted myself , but i was not even on a turnchat now, i want to check it out first.
Another thing is that both packs are not running on my machine only viewing not gaming.Thats why the president is position is unavaible for me.

Any other not so important positions would i take.

Greetings

huhahuan :

for your problem with the game:

Don't forget to turn DebugSlick=off.

Otherwise, even with a German version it should work fine (Martin/Mapfi/Zaphod/myself) are running the German version.

This mod should be fairly easy to install. Just make sure you installed everything needed. (just can't find the thread anymore where it was nicely described.....)

Well, nominations will just have to be extended for those positions and as long as their is noone interested the former ministers stay in charge, according to the con.

All you need is ModSwapper, ApolytonPack 2.0 GoodMod 1.0 and the one and only CTP2 patch in version 1.1 or with the more more user friendly insatller of version 1.11.

And by the way the game runs fine also with DebugSlic=Yes, you only have to set NumPlayers=13.

huhahu · April 29, 2003, 06:54

Sorry, but my game runs not fine.Again not fine.

I did anything right, installing it correctly, debugslic, player numbers and so on. But from time to time it just switched back to windows.
I tried so much, iam just sick of it to installing it again and again.The apolyton pack runs ok, but with good mod installed comes after a while the problems.
And i have no clue.
