Maybe I should post this icq log because deity just couldn't give me a simple answer to a simple question.

So, for calling me a cheat and a liar by insisting I post the icq log after I told him finbar and I never looked at his map; and for continuing to claim I called him a cheat without a shred of evidence after I told him repeatedly I never did and clearly posted same, deity joins Eyes of Night on my list of players I won't play.

*deletes deity from icq list, adds deity to Apolyton and icq ignore list*

I feel better already

How childish

I've never called you that; but you have called me those things.

I REPEAT, all I said to finbar was that "I didn't believe HIM" and then I immediately retracted it after he explained. My language was tame and decent. I even apologised some time later which is more than can be said for you Horsie. The REQUEST that finbar post the icq log was a troll but it would have been hilarious reading finbar explaining ZOC to you

Horse needs to separate out the personal from the game character. My game character varies from game to game and sometimes it gets to opponents but this is part of strategy and I RARELY get personal.
Horse confuses this and attacks me on a personal basis both publicly and privately and introduces my family problems. And then he widens the argument to say I'm an over-rated and irrelevant player anyway.

Horse is playing word games by attempting to make out I said stuff I didn't say.

All Horse has to do is apologise to me for his outrageous KC accusations and attitude; accept Aussie Rules as future dispute guidelines and genuinely adhere to consensus.

Is that so hard?

should you always give a reason! There are NO exceptions from that... If something come up late you can post it late in the forum but you should tell other players your reason why you not can show!

Please understand that other players can have made great efforts to show to the game. They don't knew you should post a postpone request only some hours before start...

We had a late example of late post without reason from deity in our saturday game this session. We had a great hoilday yesterday in Sweden. Most people was very drunk.... and is sleeping very long today and I wake up for playing and DEITY don't show WITHOUT reason!!! Such action get me really pissed of!

We all have lives outside civ

so unexpected things can always come up.
Before condemming someone I'd rather wait and listen to what the person has to say about it first.

Ming · June 21, 2003, 04:40

As long as people don't make a habit of not showing, you should cut them some slack... real life is sometimes more important

Well, I have a schizophrenic daughter in a Psych Unit and a suicidal wife... but why should I post the story of that?

We waited for 2 hours once while you looked for you friggin Civ CD and you've been late before, as have others. I've not sounded off about that so stop shooting off at the mouth. I posted hours before the game as soon as I knew that someone had slashed their wrists...

BTW You remind me of Gollum.

Winzzzzzzzity.... nassssty

Thanks atawa and Ming.

atawa · June 21, 2003, 06:23

Hope she'll pull through, my best wishes for you and your family

/me tries to think of something to say

I can think of nothing better to say than I am thinking of you and yours and wish you all the best in overcoming these chalenges.

Good luck mate.

I was really annoyed when I posted that above. We had a serious incident but no blood was involved - it has before, but not this time.
Thanks guys.

Alexander's Horse · June 21, 2003, 10:58

sorry to read about that D.

War4ever · June 21, 2003, 15:38

best wishes to you Deity......don't heed what that clown was chirping about above...your a player of integrity and usually without fail show up for your appointments

deity · June 21, 2003, 20:54

thanks all... sorry it got in to the thread - wasn't thinking straight.

The quote and that you must take care of your family because of that, is enough to post as reason, so you don't need to post your whole life story or what happened in detail.

But of course if you give more deatils you get much more luck wishes as you see in this thread!

And here you get my luck wishes too: I hope it goes well for you and your family!

I was pissed of because of the very bad time point it happened. I was tired had sleeped little because of the great holiday the day before the game.
Also please note that I meant in general how player should do and DON'T meant that deity had miss any game agreement earlier.
