I had read yin was going to be the interviewee representing the Civ III community. Is that still going to be the case or has him leaving forced a switch? Possibly even moved the Faces feature back?

Choices still off the mark Enter the AD-FREE zone

I see from the list that SMAC is still the priority in the interviews.

Why another SMAC guy next?

And you really think Yin26 is the next dude to hear from after a smac guy?

That means a jump to Civ-3, after being beaten over the head with TWO SMAC guys.

Won't see a real Civ-2 player untill Xin Yu, who should be NEXT!

Solver, your schedule DOES NOT reflect a fairness to the rest of the site.

Plus, what happened to the AH interview?

Even if it's irreverant, that was the intention from the get-go.

And where are the Multi-player people?

Seems that the faces thing is going to continue to play to a select audience.

It doesn't represent mainstream Apolyton AT ALL.

These ARE NOT the faces of poly, but of a TINY piece of poly.

while solver could use a few lessons on diplomatic answers he is partially right

participation in a community is something pretty good, but there are people who do more than that. their work, while being fun for them, is actually a great help or a source of joy for everyone else in the community. the intention of the foa interviews is to present these people to the entire civ community.

Just going by what Solver posted, Mark.

In the first three interviews, two are SMAC players, and the forth, Yin, is well known as a civ-3 guy.

Wouldn't it be better to have the various areas spread out, and taken one at a time?

Lack of balence is indicated by the choices so far.

Xin Yu is considered by many (including myself) as the best SP in civ-2 history, yet he must wait while all the talk is about a game (civ-3) that hasn't been released yet, and SMAC is talked about again.

And still the OT, scenario designers, and Multi-player is ignored.

I don't see how this represents all the faces of apolyton, only a small corner.

From what you said, mt idea of an interview doesn't fit the faces criteria (I proposed Laz interview AH), so it won't be there either, but in some other way, as you have indicated.

Just shooting my two cents, but it just doesn't seem diorthono to me.

Mark thinks the OT isn't an important part of this community. I wonder if we did some graphs of things like hit rates, poster stick rates, etc. if that would change his viewpoint?

perhaps, but does it really matter that much to talk about it again and again? does it really affect the quality of the feature when it will have reached it's 10th or 20th "issue"?

I'll have my diplomacy lessons later .

I actually volunteer out to do something, while I could easily just sit around the forums and post anything, without helping Markos and adding something new.

I think that if you don't volunteer to anything, you shouldn't criticize others much. I would be happy if any of you made an interview with some civer, and I'm going to see if anybody else can do it on a regular basis. Sure, many can, but noone before me did it .

I'll keep diplomatic responses for the time they are needed.

BTW, Markos, when are we doing that special way with AH interview? And did you edit it, or want me to?

I post in the OT exclusively these days... Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

...but Civ is what brought me here. I have Civ II running behind this page right now. Very glad there are still people in the other forums that are discussing the game, I do lurk up in Civ III alot. Don't know where I'm going w/ this except that the games are where it's at. It's the foundation that makes every bit of Apolyton what it is, including the OT which I enjoy so much. I LIKE the fact that there's a focus on contibutors to the site and to the games in these interviews, because I'm a gamer.
