I'll agree to that. That's techs sorted. I would like to play with the original rules. I only objected to "fair trades".

I'll even promise not to whore Sir Ralph's techs,

What about war? I'll obviously agree to no long term alliances. But I still think being able to offer future support is vital to changing alliances. So are any communication restrictions going to be in force on that?

alexman · May 21, 2003, 00:41

No communication restrictions whatsoever, except to mention a tech that you don't have. I think this is the simplest solution, and I updated the initial post. Dominae, you're the only one who hasn't spoken about the the latest rules. Is it OK with you?

Enter alliances at will, but know that your ally will not feel obligated to stay on your side forever, no matter what he tells you!

Dominae · May 21, 2003, 01:53

I'll agree to it, because everyone else thinks it's a good idea. I'm slightly confused as to what Sir Ralph is proposing...I'll read it tomorrow morning to see if it makes more sense then.

alexman, has the initial post been updated with our (final) rules and regulations?

Well, it wasn't a rule proposal at all, it rather was an announcement, how I will behave myself in this game. Nobody should feel bound to it.

Perhaps somebody can collect all the valid rules (should be not much) out of the numerous proposals and counter-proposals? After all agreed to it, we can get started. Since this one is already polluted, I propose to start a new turntracker thread.

alexman · May 21, 2003, 10:33

I updated the initial post yesterday, with what I think is acceptable to all of us. Speak up now or remain forever silent!

Looks good, and not so very different from other games. Everyone read 'em please since we should throw out all discussion and go strictly by what the rules now say.

Let's start!

Ok, 4000BC sent to Nor Me. I actually already forgot how my position looks like.

Dominae · May 22, 2003, 11:44

Game is at 1.21f. Please resend at 1.14f.

DaveMcW · May 22, 2003, 20:29

Re-sent. But is there any reason not to upgrade? I believe Nor Me has access to 1.21f now.

Harovan · May 23, 2003, 03:11

3950BC to Nor Me.

Don't know about an European release of 1.21f. Must have missed the news.

Sorry to slow the game before it barely gets started, but I'll be civless this weekend. I'm leaving Saturday morning (I'll play my turn if it's there really early), and I'll be back on Monday evening.

Perhaps I can find a replacement if you guys will all be available to play some turns over the weekend.

Alva has kindly agreed to press enter and forward the game to Dave for me this weekend. I left him some instructions. Dominae, you should know his e-mail address from GS.

Have a good weekend everyone!

My mailprovider is fvcked up and treats all incoming and outgoing mails as viruses. I had to get yours out of the folder "Virus suspected", and at the same place ended mine.

Till this is fixed, I post my turns here.
