	PBEM with Paddy - for those who have yet to play him. Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

This game is for Paddy and those rare and unfortunate souls who are not in at least one game with him.

1889 and Kloreep got the idea going in the Census thread.

So - so far this game has three players:

Paddy the Scot (sorry Paddy - no choice in the matter my friend. )
1889
Klooreep.

You can only join if you meet the above criteria. I leave it to the players to determine the game.

Enjoy!

Well I guess I better join seeing as I'm already on the list.

I'd prefer:

a standard size random map, accelerated production, roaming barbs, empereor level, one civ each, Iron Civer rules, that everyone make themselves aware of the Iron Civer rules, I'll be Portugese, I'd like my civ color to be silver, I'm thirsty get me a soda and its too hot in Arizona.

Ditto.

I'd rather not do AP, but I guess I need to try it out sometime, so I'll go with it if overruled.

Emperor level is okay, though I prefer the happiness of Monarch and Regent.

Agreed with standard random map, Iron Civer rules and one civ each, roaming barbs.

I'm not sure what civ I'll go for yet, but please make them Babylonian blue.

Oh, and it's too hot in Texas too.

How hot does it get in Australia? Is it actually worse in parts than, say, Phoenix?

Right now it's about 12C in Perth on a rainy Sunday morning.

But come back in February and you can fry eggs on the road

I dun' know. I sure seems like it'd be pretty hot though.

If any body else wants to join the intelligent conversation I'd say we have room for 3 or 4 more.

Every evening when the news is on I look at the winter temperatures in Oz and long to go there again. 17 - 20 degrees beats our 5-12 degrees easily.

As for summer heat....hottest temperature we've ever had in Perth is around 46C. Average February maxiumum is about 30C, and we probably get 20 days in summer over 40C. But it's magic when that sea breeze comes into Fremantle across the Indian Ocean!

In the outback, temperatures can go to about 55C I guess.

46C = 112F

30C = 86F

40C = 102F

Ya, Pheonix is worse. Plus it stays hot all night too.

Wait a minute, this game is for people who haven't played Paddy. If he plays then we would be playing him and be disqualified.

I'm in.

Standard random sounds good. Undecided on AP or not. The rest sounds good, I'll take the Greeks.

We have 4 so far. Thats enough to play but still lots of room.

The game so far:

1889 takes a comanding lead as Portugal
Kloreeps favorite color is blue
Paddy the Scot as himself
Master Zen can't play
Gamecube goes Greek

Still no consensus at all on level or settings

some of my aunt ask the very same question



as for settings...

I take it Beta is setting up the game... as this is all his grand plan

I would like to play the Celts

Would like Large or Huge Map

Raging Barbarians

3 Billion year old world

Wet

Temperate

well I really think there are a lot more than 7 people out here that I am not in a PBEM with...

anyway they are my preferences, not the final solution at all

that be Lord Beta's job - being the master of the Final Solution

I actually like huge maps, allows for the chance to actually build up a civilization... not just a wham bham thank you maam game

I am happy to just play the game afterall

	Tired of ads?

I'd prefer not to go above standard, but I suppose I could try large.

For a civ, I guess I'll try Sumeria.

Sounds like pretty much all of Paddy's games

How bizarre

yet I have been involved in a few games being completed

and Large and Huge maps are in the list

yet I am willing to play on a standard - even a small map

Small? I vote 8 players on a tiny map. That's fun. (Liberal use of the editor required, of course. Such as 0% ocean.
