Three, but everyone was only allowed to use one.

Come one, it's would be kind of stupid to try to cheat when there are a handful of people in the room.

DrSpike · July 17, 2003, 08:54

There are stories of LAN tourneys where people still tried to pull a fast one........usually with extreme consequences for them and their machine. They may be apocryphal, but I wouldn't like to say for sure - all true gamers hate cheats.

Hydey · July 17, 2003, 08:58

I can't imagine that anyone still playing this game after all these years would bother to cheat .

Ming · July 17, 2003, 10:53

I agree Hydey...

And it really would have been stupid to try to cheat in one of our games that weekend, especially with the fourth guy who couldn't play wandering from machine to machine to see how everybody was doing

Ming kept looking at my screen everytime he went for a piss and a beer

which was like every 200 years in civ terms....

j/k

yet i started with my usual, chariot and a special on most games

Ming · July 18, 2003, 00:07

Actually... I passed your screen far more times going for a beer from the frig then heading to the bathroom

That seems a little out of balance...

So now that the Two-Timers have met War4 did you gain any clues as to why he didn't post his photo in Rah's photos thread...??

Ming · July 18, 2003, 00:31

No... as can be proven by his success with the women, he's not ugly at all... just the opposite. I would assume because he has such LOW QUALITY TECHNOLOGY, he couldn't post for that reason

Alexander's Horse · July 18, 2003, 01:33

Low quality technology in the pants?

Ming · July 18, 2003, 01:43

Nahhh... but his connection to the net isn't worth a damn

Alexander's Horse · July 18, 2003, 02:17

Blame Canada.

deity · July 18, 2003, 03:18

War4, just attach the photo to an email and I'll post it for you

Or can't Canadians do that?

DrSpike · July 18, 2003, 04:59

If he had a photo he could post it himself.

How does Ming know?

I hope Mrs Ming doesn't find out

It's pretty easy.........I am sure we could think of War-proof instructions.

rah · July 18, 2003, 08:19

I believe it's
1. no digital camera
2. no scanner
This kind of limits his options.

Unfortunately I kept forgetting to bring mine over to Ming's that week so we have none from that adventure.
But, maybe that's a good thing.

Hydey · July 18, 2003, 08:24

Ming did not have a camera at his own house?

rah · July 18, 2003, 08:30

If he had one available, there would have been pictures.

Hydey · July 18, 2003, 08:34

I thought perhaps he was too drunk to use it

Ming · July 18, 2003, 11:21

Actually... my wife does have a digital camera... She doesn't let ANYBODY else use it, so I just forgot she had it

rah · July 18, 2003, 12:29

See, now that's the difference.
The camera that I use, is my wife's also.

Ming · July 18, 2003, 13:14

Her's is more like a digital cam corder that can take single frame shots as well... not like a simple camera. Plus, I don't have the software on my machine to use the output.

Maybe you could lend it to War4...
