I don't understand it. I don't know the first thing about hex editing (I wish that I did, as I would like to turn off global warming in my Harry Turtledove scenario). My personal theory is that I accidentally played with the wrong rules file. (I had been playing the game in single player and was messing with it. I thought I had copied the old one back, but apparently not.)

At any rate, sas has been trying to get rid of me from the game from the beginning, calling for votes to get me kicked out even because of minor delays in posting my save game file due to my crappy and limited internet access. Real life circumstances will be keeping me away from the game anyway. My computer has died from putting Windows XP on it and I am presently hunting for a new job. I won't have much in the way of internet access for at least a week, which is (to say the least) very inconvenient at a time like this.

Someone else can take Germany if they want, assuming that whatever is wrong can be fixed.

Tired of ads?

If that's the case I suggest Soundwave take Germany, and then Germany and AH can work as one cohesive central european civ.

Suffering from ads?

I kind of saw this resolution comming for a while. I figured, guilty or not, Scott would just drop out of the game sooner or later. As much as I dislike the suggestion, historical circumstances seem to reflect that Darius' idea is good solution. Austria did issue Germany the famous ''blank check'' in 1914. However, German improvements and military forces must be brought back down to realistic levels before the game continues. Hopefully this will done be quickly so we can get on with it.

If Scott wants to quit, ok, that's his choice!!

But I wish we could discover what really happened, because now some people might not trust him any longer (I still would, because we only had "hints" which, however strog they are, are no evidence...)...

And about the "unification" of A-H and Germany (after destruction of the extra improvements and units): sorry, but no, I don't agree!!!

OK, it would be historically coherent, BUT the player would be in a much too strong position!!

Just my opinion, of course...

Too strong? That was the exact feelings of the U.K., France and Russia in the early XX century. Let's do it and see if the League of Nations can maintain peace in Europe.

Yes it would make the one person's position strong, but only as strong as an alliance between the two nations would be. It is just naturally confusing having it be one person, but if it helps just consider them allied.

Everyone: first, did anyone see the stuff under their avatars yesterday is it only me I should ave taken a screen shot and I will next time it happens...

Also I support Germany and AH being seperate players, but alliances might conflict. And also here is one thing: are we striving to recreate the Triple Entente and Alliance or have it play differently than history? Because yes we could do that, but doesn't that take some of the unexpectedness out of it?

We don't HAVE to follow history, but events have developed that are leading us in that direction. An alternate solution is that Germany could be declared unfit for self-government and divided among the major powers.

First to ANZAC: yes, I saw it too, it looked like the stats for a RPG, didn't it?? with H.P., exp., etc.

Weird...

And about the game: I would prefer 2 players for Germany and A-H, I agree for 1, BUT I fully disagree on a partition of Germany!

And about this, it won't be so easy for you to make me change my mind this time...


And about recreating history: I think we don't need to push in that direction: if it occurs, fine, if it doesn't, even better: more surprises...

No hasty conclusion: you might still be crazy, but at least you're not the only one...

Yes, it's what I saw yesterday too!! and what I see in my profile!!

Looks like Attack, Defense, Movement and Hit Points...

Which doesn't really relate to the heading "Posts stats"...

BTW, ANZAC, my stats are a bit higher than yours !!!

It would make me prouder if I knew what they mean...

The one central european civ is not in my mind made to recreate history, it's just that the AH player is the most logical person to take over. I am firmly against a partition because although it would be balanced, it would simply make the game boring to carve Germany up for the sake of completeness. It's ridiculous. I would search to the ends of the earth for a substitute player before I see that happen.

MP: shows how long you've been a member and how active you have been

I presume this feature was added because people were complaining that the Star Trek quotes still weren't sufficant to truly reflect the geekiness of people around here

Germany, but we don't have one.

Ok, today I'm going around trying to find subs for all my games as I will also be gone for three weeks, from Thursday, June 20 to Thursday, July 11 to be precise. I am going to put up threads here and at Apolyton to hunt for subs, but before I do so I'm going to all of the games in which my civs have allies and asking whether my allied player would be willing to do my turns while I'm gone.

I don't have any allies in this game, but since there is a stable peace I thought there wouldn't be any conflicts of interest if another player here did the Turkish turns. Would anyone here be willing to throw in the Turkish turns while I'm gone, or should I find a sub for this one? Reply soon as I need to put up those sub-hunt threads soon.
