Ditto - but we need Theseus here. At least occasionally.

And preferably once a day.

I gave my picks for the CoT game to Beta. My name will be Supreme Mythologist Perseus Rhothazar.



I also suggest we start a new thread for the CoT game and leave this one for the Theseus game.

From the Census thread:

quote: Originally posted by Theseus I was pretty good in terms of turn-play with Nathan in the AU game... we got further than any other pair, and much faster then any, due to good turn practices. [Said again: F-P, my hoped-for-mentor, where are you? "F-P, F-P... come back! come back!"]

So if we got F-P in here - would you be around? We can arrange that.

I'm still interested in a PBEM with Theseus.

Ok Ill pick tonight, but its a mute point without Theseus.

At least for me it is.

Thats the only reason I took on another PBEM right now. Im actually kind of filled up so unless he shows and decides to play, I will probably decline

OK - there definitely seems to be a sentiment here - we would like Theseus to play. That's what this was about in the first place andwhy I started the game.

I will PM him again - to see what's up.

So Paddy - please stand by.

Thank you one an all for your patience.

We could assign him the Greeks in the civ choices and finish that aspect of it.

Yes. Kloreep and myself will pull our choices back in order for you, Theseus, to have your turn at picking the civ that you want.

It's good news to hear that you're still with us Theseus!

I assume Klo will keep Greece which means Wittlich needs to repick, correct?

The sooner you pick, Witt, the sooner I will

Nah, we didn't really pay attention to that. Especially Beta, he was WAY to busy spamming to pay attention

Just bring the same level of MM to the game, everyone, and I'll forgive all the oversight.

Well, for starters, you could have been clearer. Like what weekend, and what Monday??

con is right - this went right over my head. The misunderstanding is mine Theseus. Sorry about that.

"Yah right", says Theseus, as the Persians and Egyptians line up for a Vox/GS grudge match.

Isn't that a hoot.

So - are we agreed on Carthage going back to industrial and commercial - instead of sea-faring - or should we leave that choice up to the Carthaginians?

Why would we do that? Are we not playing stock C3C?

[Edit: Not that I mind... I'll leave it up to you more experienced PBEMers if there is some commonly accepted reason.]

More or less - I was only thinking that we are planning on using a pangaea map with no island starts. Seafaring will still have a role - albeit diminished.

I am easy either way.

Theseus: Unless there are objections, I think we're moving map trading back to Map Making. So it may not be completely stock.

However, this is the first I've heard of changing Carth's traits back. Why do you suggest that, Beta?

Edit: Crosspost. I didn't remember we were doing pangea. In that case, I guess we might want to leave it an option for the Carth plaer.

	31-08-2004 04:38									#120
	Put an end to popups!

SEA works for pangaeas too.

Is the map trading thing due to the MP restriction on in-game versus out-of-game communication? Makes sense to me, especially for a 'classic' game.

BTW, I didn't see it confirmed... is or has SR made or tweaked a map?
