310 bc sent to andy. Sorry for the delay but while sending the save this morning the connection failed.

I'm afraid my time is getting a little constrained with work so I've been looking for a good time to leave the game. With the Ottomans demise this looks like a such a time and I've arranged for Zord to take over the babs. It will mean that Andy will still send his turn to Zord who will play the babs and then send the turn to Sir Ralph.

Bon Chance

Turn Sent, OK Spencer. Thanks for sticking at the game.

All the best

Harovan · August 18, 2003, 17:23

Good luck to you Spencer. Good idea to hand your now united civ to Zord, btw.

SpencerH · August 19, 2003, 09:40

The Babylonian-Ottoman clash was fated from the day I took over from Selfbiased (maybe dissident didnt know it though, or maybe he did since he left

) Once it became apparent that I got the jump on Zord with my horsies I was thinking it might be a good way to bow out of the game. The plus is that you're all on that side of the pond so the game may go faster for you as well.

Zord · August 23, 2003, 10:27

Any problem, Andy?

So what did Spencer actually do? Did he retire, if so what happens to his cities, do they all just appear as ruins?

Harovan · August 27, 2003, 05:39

Spencer handed his empire to Zord (who was extinct before).

2 Civs wiped out before the birth of Christ, I think i'd better militarise my civ....

I'm sure we started with 6 and one didn't last long at all, I was quite disturbed to come across ruins, anyone remember?

The game is picking up pace now I actually get to move a few units a turn.

Found it, though I was going mad there for a minute:

yeah, miccofl has left shortly after I replaced Shamus. I've asked him why and he answered:

As head of CGN's Inter Forum Demo Team (Netatolia) I just didn't have the time or bandwidth for the game. With the time lost to disapearing players in that game I thought it best that I resign rather than hold the game up again looking for another player.

And the problem with the picture is solved - its extension had to be jpg, not JPG (stupid paint).

andy_hammer · August 29, 2003, 03:56

Ahh, does that mean that he wasn't slaughtered early on in the game, he actually resigned? After finding the ruins I thought there was some bloodthirsty Civ roaming the planet.
