Eru has made this new world out of nothing.

Let the game begin.........

Maybe the best will win.

Turn to Creator of the Assyrian

We didn't get any PW. The game didn't like it. Once again. Sorry Frank, you came too late.

The great creator said .."Let there be a map"....
and there was a map.

After resting, the great creator said.. "Let there be PW" ...
but something went wrong and he said "Ah to hell with it!"

And I did.

Creator (PL)
Touplov (Krash) (UK)
Ceasar (Vanni) (I)
Thor (Thor) (US)

Europe > US > EastAsia.

Other settings:

Map, going from 0 (zero) to 10 (ten)

6 (dry)
4 (warm)
5 (ocean/land)
9 (continent)
10 (diverse)
5 (Goods)

Size: Gigantic.

Diff: Deity with roving bands.

Shape: Doughnut World

Does Vanni know that he has to play? I believe he was the last one to be sent the file. I mean its kinda worrying that if its like this in the beginning, how's it gonna be later? I mean we have 7 players. Lets get the game moving already.

-- edit ---
BTW, I emailed Vanni, and my email bounced.
Here's the email I used : vanni76@liberto.it

I have sent Vanni the game twice now. I'm pretty sure I got the email address right vanni76@libero.it so I don't know if he has a problem.

Krash, has he responded? Did you get in contact with him? I have a feeling he doesn't even know the game has started. hehehe.

I'll email him again with the right address, thanks for correcting me BirdMan.

Did vanni respond to your Email Thor? This is getting ridiculous now, perhaps I should put him on AI until someone hears from him. What do you think?

I think 1 of two things has happened..

Either Vanni doesn't know the game is getting played,

Or he has forgotten about it and wasn't really "commited" to playing the game in the first place.


.. I would expect a person to unexpectedly disappear later in the game where he may loose interest, or something happens and he/she is no longer able to meet the commitment to play their turn. This dude hasn't played even his first turn, maybe we should find a replacement for him.

I think we need to get the game moving, but I think its better that You play his turn for him, or we get a replacement player (temporary or permanent) instead of letting the AI take over, it will mess the Civ up at this critical stage of development.

I vote for the following: You play his turn for him to best of your ability.. meanwhile we try to get in touch with him, if we get no response by turn 3 we find a permanent replacement for him.

TheBirdMan .. You ofcourse since you are creator of this game I call upon you to make the final decision on how to proceed, but we DO need to get the game moving, after all I'm not even the last player of the turn, and we haven't even finished 1 turn yet!

To have fast fun games we needed commited players, slow games are just no fun.

I think King thor was right, the game MUST moving.
So Vanni Turn should be played by someone else, then we send another e-mail every turn, until the 3th turn, after that we MUST find someone else that would like to play.

Agree, if we havn't heard from him within 3 turns, he's out.

I have one replacement if nessesary (I hope).

.. or Sowasabauch ..

It doesn't matter. We have 2 potential replacements.

Krash, since the majority seem to vote that we continue the game, why dont you open the game play Vanni's turn and pass it over to me so that we can get the game rolling, I'll be able to play my turn within the next 7 hours. So That'll give you enough time.

Krash'll play Vanni's turn for the next 3 turns and after that, Frank or Sowasabauch will take over the civ, permanently.

So Krash, you can go ahead and play Vanni's turn and pass the game on to me. Lets this show on the road!

Right! I've played Vanni's turn and sent it to Thor as agreed.

Let's hope we can get going now.

I suggest send Vani's turn to Sowasabauch NOW, because it is more quickly and more favourable for Sowasabauch ! All the more Vani evidently not interesed this game... [ I sorry for bad english ]

Wait.. hold everything..

Okay, does sowasabuch know he has to play this turn?

Dudes, I'm getting dizzy too!

Lets continue on with this turn being played by krash, I'll play my turn once I get home, we'll get in touch with Sow. and let him know he is the permanent leader of Italian Civ. 1 turn shouldn't matter too much.

Turn 0 -> Arthur


===============

In a far away hostile land, a tribe of barbarians broke free of their meaningless traditions.
Led by their brave leader Thor, they decided to work toward a great and noble goal....
To engage in science, commerce and trade. To build cities and roads, to harness the bounties of nature by building farms and Fisheries. To crush the primitive barbarian hordes by creating great and powerful armies. .... To lay the ground work, for civilization..

Indeed, "The Indian empire has emerged..."
