A college semester of German isn't enough to properly balderdash with, especially not with a gut full of cheap Amerikanisher bier.

to GF.

Oh, the joys of finding Iron so close to home

It should be noted that conmcb25's Liberal civilization is prone to making false statements. Most likely because they cannot accomplish anything on their on and have to take credit for others achievements.

Ach du meintest Blubberblubber Rhabarbergelaber ja, dass gibt es auch bei uns....

Sorry but my translater won't translate Blubberblubber and Rhabarbergelaber. I think it means something like "Bla Bla Yada Yada"....

Sent it on to Beta...

Beta · March 23, 2004, 08:59

Bah - humbug.

To the weed killer ...

GhengisFarb™ · March 23, 2004, 09:49

Okay, now you people are even trying to balderdash............

Babylonian exploratory units traveling through the wilderness have stumbled upon a small village which has taught us the secret of JunglePower(tm). The exact nature of this ultra secret technological breakthrough will not be revealed at this time, sorry.

Wait, I'm supposed to tell you guys something that's complete BALDERDASH, not something that's actually true.

So be it:

JunglePower(tm) is rumored by local Babylonian villagers to be a form of disease that while it would surely kill foreigners, causes native Babylonians to rise to unparalleled feats of ---------censored----------. We will certainly bury you all!

Wait, once again, I have actually told you something that is true and does not qualify within the rules of the game. Therefore, I must try again:

Mighty Babylon is prepared to offer mediation services in the Roman-v-RNC conflict of 3300 BCE. If both sides would submit their briefs along with stamped and signed C-743/T forms (which you can apply for with a 7-OR/45 application form sent to the Ministry of Annoying Regulations), the Ministry of Arbitration will see to mediating your dispute.

Oh, I almost forgot... save to GodKing.

ZargonX · March 27, 2004, 11:39

I will be away on vacation from today until next Friday, and in the off chance a save actually makes it to me during that time, I apologize in advance for the delay

GhengisFarb™ · March 30, 2004, 00:48

We got hungry.

So we ate our only source of Elephants.

Forgot to mention that I sent it to the barbarian GF, but he already told you about his small elephant problem.....

Riiiiight...considering what day it is and considering what the theme of this PBEM is. Let's just say I don't believe it.

Well you are a lot more perceptive than Uber, he fell for it hook line and sinker at MZO.

It will be played sometime today, I have had a very busy week in RL.

Maybe..............

conmcb25 · April 2, 2004, 00:46

Whose turn is it anyway?

Rommel2D · April 2, 2004, 00:55

The Nepalleons would like to challenge all fellow tribes to attend a concert at Angkor Wat.

Rhothaerill · April 2, 2004, 01:55

Nice Rommel.

The continuing adventures of Bucky Katt the Monkey Hunter have continued. He hacked a hairball and that's all the news that fit to print.

3300bc to Darekill

ZargonX · April 2, 2004, 23:00

If someone sent the save to me, I don't have it

No one really cares.

Unfortunately we can't blame anything on you since no one sent you the save yet.

Sure we can, he just got back, he has jet lag and probably doesn't even know he has it

Darekill · April 3, 2004, 14:56

'twas mine now it is Betas. I've just sent it two days ago....

Beta · April 4, 2004, 17:02

What is this jet thing you are talking about???? Can I upgrade my 6 galleys?

Save played this morning when Poly was down and sent to the Weed Man.

ZargonX · April 5, 2004, 10:00

The brothers of Zeta Xi were thrilled to come across some potential new party-goers in the hills near their lands, but were less thrilled when the new guys turned out to be totally lame and only gave them maps of things the brothers had already seen. The ZXers responded in the only way they knew how, and pummeled them mercislessly, and burned their crap hut town to the ground.

To Arn, yesterday.

Arnelos · April 5, 2004, 19:33

The Imperium had absolutely nothing of import happen this turn. Absolutely nothing at all.

Save to GK.

Rhothaerill · April 8, 2004, 22:19

Hey guys, just FYI..

I have done some testing tonight and this game is NOT compatible with v1.22.

So I'm including what I did to still be able to play in both v1.15 and v1.22 by interchanging.

Before upgrading to v1.22, make a folder called V1.15 in the Civilization directory (not the Conquests). Copy (not cut) EVERYTHING in the Conquests folder over to the V1.15 folder. Then use the patch upgrade to v1.22. Then make a folder called V1.22 in the Civilization directory. Copy (not cut) EVERYTHING that is now in the Conquests folder over to the V1.22 folder.

EDIT: If you have separate folders for 1.15 and for 1.22 then all you need to do is hit the .exe for 1.15 to go back to 1.15 to play that version. Then click on the 1.22 .exe file to go back to 1.22 Thanks to UnOrthOdOx for that.

Anyway, that seems like the easiest way to me to be able to switch between versions for now. If anyone has an easier way please say so.

Sorry about the delay. My computer fell off the desk. Literally. So I picked up a new laptop, and am still trying to configure it. Only problem is that the laptop doesn't have a modem (it is configured for high speed and wireless, but not a good ol fashon dial up), so I am using my old 486 for internet, and burning CD's to go back and forth for now. As it is the holiday weekend, no chance of getting a modem, but should be up and running next week.

Save to GF

Its amazing how rapidly dial up is becoming ancient technology.

Good luck GodKing

As I think most of you are aware, GhengisFarb has been gone for a couple of weeks now. I don't think anyone knows when or if he is coming back so we need to start thinking of replacements for him in this game. Uber Krux took over for him for a turn a while back, maybe we can get him to do it permanently.

I think that is the only way this game will move on unfortunately.

Beta · April 20, 2004, 21:45

Uber would be a good replacement. Then again, maybe he has too gentle a soul for this game.

Farb is apparently back. He showed up about 10 minutes after I posted this (and in a few other PBEMs I'm in with him)

He said he would be getting to his PBEMs very soon.
