Perhaps you could ask them if we could discuss it first, rather than "give us the gold, dammit!"

	Full PM-box? Change here!

According to your posted transcipt, you have already discussed it. Let's wait for their answer.

(But, true, we should discuss it, I just got the impression that you did discuss it with CFC).

I mentioned it, but we didn't really flesh anything out. Asking them for an official answer would be good.

And I may not respect them (that hasn't changed), but I do see the need to get them to work with us.

Mesage sent to emperor napoleon via Yahoo IM:
(He was off-line at the time)

quote: Hey ho there. We'd like to get some gold from you guys for continued 4 turn research; it's very important to keep that coming. We have the infrastructure (Libraries and Universities) to more aptly take advantage quick research using your commerce to allow deficit researching on our part. Also, I sent a note with the last save to you guys. Have you come up with a response yet? I wait your reponse. One more note..we have the turn right now and will be playing it most likely within 24 hours...just to give you guys a heads up on when it's getting to you.

Did we ever get an answer BF?

Have we officially told CFC we plan on aborting the invasion? And that we recommend they do so as well?

	29-09-2004 23:36									#127
	Suffering from ads?

Yeah, they know about our abortion.

They also know we recomended that they come home; but it seems like they are still looking for a spot to land accoding to this post at the alliance embassy.

They finally sent us some gold as well. We'll see....

You shall get 160 gold next turn, is that ok? Our team agreed IIRC to 70gpt. is that enough? Ankka President who messes things up

And another note from CFC that one of our fearless leaders wanted some low level bureaucrat like me to post for discussion.

So lets discuss and formulate a response

quote: Originally posted by BigFree Got this from CFC quote: Hi this is Yndy and I'll play together with Ankka for some time. With all the interruptions I have some questions about our common plans. I've run into the Webringian Galley near Cuba Libre. I'm showing them 2 Caravels with 2 more navigating through the South. Now I have many questions since I'm not familiar with our common plans. Since GCA has just received all those cities and don't have much military would it be wise to land in the South of the Continent? What's your plan on that? Do you want us to start a 40 turn research? (eg on PP or Music Theory?) Can we start a prebuild on a Great Wonder? (Smith's comes to my mind as we will have lots of Banks and marketplaces) When do you expect to be able to give us Banking? Meanwhile, you'll be happy to know that we can afford to increase our contribution to Poly to 80gpt starting next turn. Regards, Yndy CFC has also posted some questions here: http://www.civgaming.net/forums/sho...66&goto=newpost Can someone please get together some answers for them. I have a tough schedule the next two days (doubles)!! we had previously asked for CFC to be more "involved" and it looks like a new llayer is giving it a go. Let's get them on board fully. They seem to be good with letting CGN have the area North of CFC (the silk colony area) to resettle in. Let's a get a plan for that.....maybe some of our Setlers and a few of CFC's can build some cities for CGN...

Sorry man.

I think the 80 gold per turn is good for now.

I think they should try an operation agaisnt GCA in the deep South.

I think they should do 40 turn research heading towards Democracy.(using a scientist)

We should give them banking now if they are ready to build banks or as soon as GCA/GWT have it.

Nothing to be sorry about.

I was actually hopeing to get some "Citizen" input, which we just dont seem to have any longer. :sigh:

Sent this to CFC with the save...

quote: Sorry it took so long to play this. Thanks for the gold. We sent you Silks and our WM; would like to have your WM as well. Try to make a landing against GCA in the South. We landed a small party in GCA's North to sort of "scare" them; just 3 Knights but all three are spread out and right next to a city! GWT/GCA now have Astronomy. They still lack a few things; once they get them we will gift all of those techs to you; just trying to keep their research costs as high as possible. We don't having Banking yet; why don't you go ahead and do a 40 turn research of it using a specialist. Till next time

From CFC

quote: How much money did you receive after all? I did ask in the Alliance forum about sending gifts as I have not done it in a PBEM before and you complained you did not receive it. Since you did not answer I made the mistake of sending you the gift three times! Why did you not reject the other two? From a treasury of 879, we ended up bankrupt, lost a harbor and a worker and had to declare war to you to get back from the -137 gpt situation. I've killed a Med Inf you had and asked for peace afterwards. I'm also making mongoose aware and would welcome any of his comments. Regards, Yndy - CFC Team

Response:

I'm not sure how much we received...I'm sorry you went bankrupt. I was not aware that you sent the amount that many times or that the game could even do that; you learn something new every day.

The game does not allow you to reject parts of an offer. It's an all or nothing deal only; else the offering team has to just re-offer on the next turn. I guess we could have replayed the turn...
