I love Birth of the Federation. It's like Moo2 with a little bit of personality.

took me WEEKS to figure out all of the nuances though. it's pretty complicated.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

What I don't understand, is that when I originally asked everyone to play an email game, max players, gigantic map, EVERYBODY SAID YES. I explained the rules to EVERYONE at least three times! I hinted to everyone that they needed to be by their e-mail as much as possible, and I double-checked all the e-mail addresses BEFORE we started the game to make sure there would be no problems such as the ones we have been having!

If any of u do not think I am a serious player, think again. But when people cannot get their act together to check their email more than once a day, in this situation, it can end up taking 8 DAYS to get one turn through! AT FIRST, I thought it might be the way I set up the game, since I really gave no thought to time zones. But Obviously you people proved that theory wrong.

EVERYONE must understand that we must work together as a team to make this work. If you can't get into your email regularly, DONT PLAY. I am simply frustrated that we have restarted the game once, and already contemplating a third time. Not only that, but when we re-started the game, everyone should have been able to figure out that they needed to check their email more often to facilitate the game moving faster. This has to be a team effort to make this work, with everyone trying as hard as they can. Please, I like this game, and I enjoy playing with other players, but we must resolve this issue once and for all. Taking 3 to 4 days to play one turn of this game on email is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE.

As always,

Kris, Puppet Master of Kronos, Leader of the English

P.S. This is for all of u who didn't get my e-mail, for whatever reason!

The turn came from Douglas.
Althought I cant say for sure that it wasn't my fault I have a friend who gets over 50 mail every day and he never had problems as mine....
I have an idea but I'm not very sure about it: When someone playes his turn he could call the next one. I think that would work better with mobile phone (but I personaly dont have one) and he would just say "Hi Steen its Tilemacho" and then hang up immediatly...its just an idea...

Dont take this the wrong way, but I'm not sure if I want to give my phone number out to a bunch of foreign psychos. Hmm, could get expensive, and I'm not sure how it works over there.

But here, you can make a collect phone call and refuse the charges. I used to do that alot when I was broke, call up my wife in DC, then she'd refuse the chareges and call me or at least she'd know I was getting in touch with her, but then again..... the phone thing is nice because it's speedy.

I'm on my computer most of the time, since I work at home from my computer. but i dont mind either. I dont think it'd benefite me too much, since I'm on alot and send out turns as soon as I get them.

I think it would be good though if we could upload the turn someplace where we could all have acsess to it.

hmmm, maybe a webpage like geocities? or Tripod we could upload the turns there and they would never go missing. are the turns password protected? I've forgotten.

I'm up for anything.

Tired of ads?

Opps, I didn't know Psycho was really Psycho's name. I was just being cute, light hearted, didn't mean anything by it. Sorry Psycho.

I gotta keep in mind that most of us live in different countries and have different ways.

Living in the states, we're so isolationistic again. so US-oriented.

who is Steen? I thought "Steen" was short for Kristen.

forgive our ignorant native ways, but who the hell is Steen? i've forgotten.

ok, because we've all been through alot, and we did get off on a good start, one of those turn 0's we did went well.

how about a daily update from people, just to give a clue, and more importantly to reassure everyone else that your still around.

like that Steen thing.

just a quick update here on Apolyton, something about what's happening in game, and a warniing if something might affect the turn around. like, I'll be in late tomorrow, or can someone take over my turns this weekend, cause I'll be in Alaska fishing.

Well...it seems to my that we are all confused here
I think....that Daniel Steen is the guy from Sweden or something like that (GMT+1) and his mail is Powerslave@netscape.net
So he is after me but hasn't said anything for a while so i put him to AI.
You know Kristen (Kronos)....the great English leader...dont you?

Here is a review of the progress of our game for turn 1 as Kel'en sent it to me...and forth:
I use the dates from apolyton Master2000 board.
Kel'en............13-1 (23.09)
Tilemacho.........14-1 (03.27)..= 04.18 hours
Kristen...........14-1 (19.57)..= 16.30 hours
Mobius............15-1 (10.27)..= 14.30 hours
Sporeboy..........16-1 (05.23)..= 18.56 hours
Emporer...........16-1 (14.40)..= 09.17 hours
Douglas ........................= 2 days.......

So I think that it is obvious that neither of us is very quick...

BUT Douglas seems to me not being able to follow the game.It's not that he can check only once every day (athought that is also a handicap), it's more that he seems to check his mails once every 2 or 3 days. So I propose that we drop him of the game and stay just 6 since we will progress faster that way.

Douglas:I have nothing against you but I want to finish this game. If you had a problem and you think that you can check from now on every day I agree that you stay, but please dont make as wait 2 or 3 days for your turn...
Steen the Russian leader: I think he droped off and I won't send him mail from now one. If you are there around send us a mail...
Emporer: If we agree you must attach Douglas and send the game to Kel'en.

That's what I had to say. Sorry if I made any mistakes or if I bothered someone.
