If Ming chooses the settings, does that include a time clock of Ming's choosing? If so, it sounds like we might have an interesting match here.

He won't play me. First two games we ever played he accused me of cheating and said I had extra knowledge of the map. Then he comes back a couple months later says he'll beat me on his settings (Medium map, 2x2x, 1 land mass). Gets his ass kicked and begins his year long reign of dodging. Finally he plays me again and this is where he begins his quest for the settings he can finally beat me on. First it was medium map islands, then it was small map 1 land mass but no attack until 2000BC. Then he went a while playing no hut maps, and a million other variations of the game. That's all this is. This is strat after 2 and a half years still trying to find a setting he can call himself the best at.

Again, your settings ming, as long as a timer is not punishingly restrictive, thats fine with me. Secondly, I never said I took half hour turns . I just said they were a little slower then most others.
I have no intrest in playing eyes. I have won the last 5 games verse him in which he quit 20 min.s into the game. I challenged you , and you only. You are the one bashing me when you never expierenced first hand a game with me, which, I wish others that like playing me cause they know they will get a good game would chime in here to back me here.
Let me repeat it for the record, I have repeatedly beat Eyes, he IS not a real player. you only say that from lack of expierence Ming.
Oh sure I brag and sound off, but for gods sake, why do you take that seriously? My girlfriend doesnt take me seriously. My dog doesnt either. Hell my costmers dont even think I am serious when I tell them a price.
"Life"? I dont play Civ on a regular basis, I am far too busy between shows and my shops I stock.
Do I believe I am the best Civer in the world? Of course I do. However you can believe your the best and be proved wrong. I give you that chance.
Your fellow Apolytoners are cheering for you.
You know, you might just enjoy the game and want to play me again.....GOD FORBID...

Next, I dont play Civ verse players I dont think can win, waste of time.
Additionally, Doctor fell, so an explorer took my capital before a unit was built in their the next turn, good job. Nice move. it happens.
But ignoring the previous number of games that I won, (easily) verse you and braging about 1 you won is kind of like the Knicks saying they are better then the Lakers since they beat them in a game last September in preseason.
I like playing you Fell. We have good games usually, same with Kuja and Robie Tiger. Why ruin it with this kind of false rederic.
And as far as basking in my glory, it bares repeating.......
I am after all, 8 time Game league Champion. 2 time Cases champion and I won multiple Civ tourneyments.
I dont have to play to do any basking....

Another thing, remove the lines where I said I would beat anybody on these settings cause that was to inspire someone to play this type of game and obviously it has the opposite result.
The orginal intent of this thread was a Civological expierement verse typical civ thinking. The typical mentality of Civers today is that if you dont have the happy wonders or statue or sun tzus that you have no chance of winning in a duel.
All the stuff about revealed starting positions and restarts cause of land and hut do-overs were merely designed to keep the main elements that screws up most games from wasting my time, either winning or losing due to uncontrollable luck elements . To do other wise, would be wasteing my time in a big game like I propose.
You, Ming made it personal, thus this thread deviated into a personal challenge to my very crediability despite virtually unequaled accomplishments. I have given you no reason to deny this challenge, you get everything the way you like it.
the 3 games series should help reduce any luck related wins and provide a clear winner of this dispute.
I really thought, you amoung all, would be above such petty attacks. Are you not the monitor of this forum? Are you not the one who has more then once restricted and removed certain flamming posts?
You have 2 options the way I see it, ....
1) take the challenge, maybe win a great victory that will make you feel good, maybe lose and learn something new, maybe, win or lose, enjoy playing the game...
2) or lose all credibility as a top noch Civ player as I think you are (as of right now) and look like a cowardly little lion who is all talk and no action.

And as far as Eyes, I have caught you in a BIG time cheat before. You had like 100 citys to my 30+. Mine were filled with happy wonders and entetainers to prevent unhappiness before it occured along with higher lux rate., an expenditure of 1000's of resources. You just started your fooling around with rules.txt apearently and set it way too low so you could ignore the happiness expenditures that I made.
How did I find out about it? I reloaded the game in single player form after I quit and sure enough, with me as host every single city revolted the next turn. I dont like you, nor do I really trust you, since your past actions have been far less then honorable and nobody here will deny that.
Further more, since I have beaten you, 5 times in a row now, and you refuse to acknowedge it publicly, and I dont even care if you blame it on huts or starting position, just admit it, otherwise a challenge like this will not work with you cause you will simply ignore that this game took place like I am sure your selective memory has already deleted the past 5 devestating defeats verse me, me and another, or me and my team mate.
Stop living 3-4 years ago, basking in a 4 or 5 game winning streak verse me as a player just developing as a Civ player.
Now, this is clearly not the case. You have become old and set in your ways and can not adapt to a board, that god forbide, looks different each game you play. Nor, have I seen you use any advanced tactics like ship chaining, trade routes, market places etc. not to mention games lasting into modern techs like steam engine or railroad.
You are very deficiant as a player, and I am afraid, will allways be.

Ming - if you don't want to play him you certainly don't have to - but just admit it and leave it at that (the excuses seem a little weak)
He's giving you your settings.
Then you complained about how long he takes (and you've never even played him) so he agreed to a timer of your choosing.
Then you want Eyes to fill in for you.
Sounds pretty lame.
BTW strat I'm ready for a best of 3 against you with my settings and my timer any time you are.

Ming? do you read all my post, or just one line and stop? if you did, and I am sure others will agree, I very expressly explained why I dont want to play him. I made it very clear . And it has nothing to do with fear. In fact I rather dont mind losing if I can learn something from it. Mostly, I just want a game to be enjoyable, win or lose, and with him, thats off the table before it starts cause, civ aside, he is the biggist a-**** I have every had the displearure of conversing with.
Deity, Ill play you, you choose the settings then. Fine with me.
Further Ming, you seemed to be on right now, as I am typing (read post time and dates to confirm)
get on the zone and we can go at it right freaking now.
