	Setting up IP Games XXXVIII Enter the AD-FREE zone

The last one was getting too large and it looked like a good place to break, so it's time for a new one.

Welcome to addition 38.
Ming, you may close the old one.

I'll be at Ming's at the normal time tonight. Yes, I'll bring the pizza.

Tomorrow I may be running a tad late. I have an early morning tee time but am playing in a tournament in the afternoon, but I should be home before 7:30 central.

But will you be in any kind of shape to play after 36 holes of golf and lots of drinking

Welllllllll, I did play Wednesday night after 36 holes and lots of drinking. The only comments from the people I played with were that I seemed a bit Ming-like. "more whining"

Yeah, I almost forgot about that part on wednesday.

Well since the afternoon is a tournament, I expect to drink a little less than normal.

i crashed my ie6.0 ? i locked up, icq went down, then when i rebooted i couldn't connect to icq nor could i get on the net, well i could but everytime i did something i got an error message and the blue screen of death.

i uninstalled a few things and i am not using ie6.0 anymore...back to 5.5......seems to be working now.....

my virus scanner was messed up and was my mem turbo program.....those are now gone......

jperhaps i was using too much ram?..

either way, seems to be working right now......but then again i am not using many programs

BTW good game, your killing me but i want to continue playing...damm if i know where your empire is though....i have boats out and i have uncovered more of the map than you have.....your more like pirates than a civ me thinks

While rah is going to be a tad late tonight (He's teeing off now for his second 18), I'll still unfortunately be looking for a later start if anybody is around tonight.

Not good, Rob's finger got worse, it started bleeding more heavily on the second hole. It didn't help. Except for a few shots, it turned us into a two man team. Good thing we had lots of beers jammed in our bags.

Well we're getting closer to Friday. Trying to get a feel of who's going to be around. Before the Sat session, I plan on changing the rules.txt to extend Oracle. When I do I'll post it in the RAH rules thread. I wouldn't want anybody to think I doing anything inappropriate.
I'll try to see if we can change it on Ming's machine. I don't think he'll care.

I'm not as confident about removing that one without screwing something up. For now, we can just not voluntarily research it, and worry about it later.

you can cut espionage straight out since it's not a prereq for any other techs

Tell me what you want done to the .txt file, and I'll copy one to you.

I should be around Friday, unless someone has lost life or limb during one of my (frequent) nicotine fits.
(Smoking was a wonderful habit BTW, I can't ever imagine why anyone would want to quit?)




Any chance on a continuing game this week?

Ming, I assume the Strategic blahblahblah will be getting together tonight. Assuming all is well, I'll be by, same time, same station -- my only oppty this month.

July has been a month without Friday gaming, without golf, and virtually without Poly. And yet -- it's been a good month. How could this be???


Oh, yeah -- It's also been virtually without WORK!
