AI wonders

Ben Kenobi · July 22, 2003, 04:41

Simple poll, yet the people have not had their say on this issue.

What should we do with enemy cities containing wonders?

Shall we capture the city with the wonder; tailor the city for an AI zoo or raze the city to the ground?

What say the people?

Hydey · July 22, 2003, 06:06

Poly not letting me vote at this time

I say we have handicapped ourselves enough so far and that we should capture and hold all wonders.

-Jrabbit · July 22, 2003, 08:32

Seem to me there should be some reward for capturing a WoW...

shade · July 22, 2003, 11:10

dito here, capture the wonders and keep them, no way the AI will ever get them back

Capture and hold, anything eles would be dumb to do!

Vice-President's Responsibilities
-Posts nomination thread
-Posts election polls
-Becomes Minister if that Minister is absent for 24hr
-Becomes Prez in event of abdication - holds position until next elections

Haven't seen you since the elections...might want to read the third responsibility above.....we have needed it lately

Plus, wasn't there an additional responsibility I read somewhere that the vice president is also responsible for posting screenshots?

Capture and hold seems to be the best general answer. But there may be reasons in a particular case to destroy the city. I can't think for the moment why we might want to keep an AI zoo, but I suppose it could happen.

OH! And about the nomination thread, when should I start it?

Sparrowhawk · July 23, 2003, 11:11

/me just likes giving fellow Ministers a hard time

, you wern't around so I had to catch up, Hydey was a good target in your absence though

MrWhereItsAt · July 23, 2003, 21:17

Seems to me as if you somehow became more of the target, Sparrow.

BTW Hi 123john!

cavebear · July 23, 2003, 21:42

Sparrowhawk's post made sense to me...

Sparrowhawk · July 23, 2003, 21:56

/me looks forward to being the target

of the "friendly" banter.....

My Science Advisors are quick witted...they will not let me down :hmm:

As king I should be an example of calm and logic...but sometimes the image of a fanatic high priest might be good

Ranting-High-Priest-mode (of course backed by some of Hydey's War-priestesses )

Heretic!!!! The Gods have given us the divine right to be the masters of all wonders! Destroying them would upset them greatly. And who would like the wrath of Seth,Mars and Ares to be pointed to our beloved country??
I say crucify the heretic, stone him and then hang him. Rip out his tongue so he can't tell no more blasphemous stories and boil him alive so he gets a preview of Hell and Tartarus.

/ End Ranting-High-Priest-mode and going back to the palace (of course backed by some of Hydey's War-priestesses

No wonder there are none left for able ministers.

Why don't you quit hogging the supply.

The ministers doing a good job have plenty of my amazons for protection

I like how you leave it open for the citizens to interpret their own way as to who is and is not "doing a good job"

Hydey · July 24, 2003, 18:16

Speak up sparrow, the amazons are making too much noise.

I feel I am about least qualified to answer this, but since no one else has

......

I would think about 3 days ago

would have been about the time to post the nominations thread. Having said this I remember that I read somewhere that the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second best time is today...soo....

(in other words, since it hasn't been done yet......how about now?

)

So that's why I only had Amazons offered after I had been away from my post?
