I agree. Who wants to set up the second game? Maybe we could use a map partially gleened from our ISDG?

I don't know how to set up a pbem game, the manual doesn't give a very clear discription....
At least in this game I got one of those starts (someone here - forgot his name - estimated roughly 30-35% chance) that is worse than our poly start, at least from what I can see now....but that is not the reason I want a restart, a vassal game can be kinda fun too

I could set it up, as long as I have an order and who is what civ, there should be no problem...

-7 GMT here. Pick a time zone to start with, then make the turn order based upon who comes a bit before. For example, EST to CST to MST to PST, etc.

I'm -8 GMT. We could re-assign the Civ's though to make it more interesting; just assign them by the turn order you come up with(by timezones) for this game. If two or more people have the same time zone place them alphabetically.

anyone know what to do?

Also, I will be unable to play the turn from later today until Tuesday, so if anyone can help me quickly, I can get the turn out.

Got spare money?

Sorry, I have to go now. Here is the file, in case there is a way to put in the administrator password, and then set a new password. If there is no way to reset the password, when I get back on Tuesday, I will replay the 4000bc turn and set the proper password on it.

(If anybody plays my turn, please mine the worker)

You can find someone to use the admin password for you that's not in the game, if it won't take too long.

Good Idea, Trip, we need someone to do that for us

Panzer, please try to pick someone to do that and send your password to them. Or well try to find someone to do it for you.

This is my first PBEM game. Does the sort of things happening in this game happen in most? Not anything personal against guys (or girls )from outside North, South or Cental America, but from a time zone consideration, I would like to be in another game that has the possibility of moving a bit quicker. Is anyone interested in setting up an America's game?

This sort of thing happens in all games, I've found, and even being close regionally doesn't seem to help all that much in the long run.

I'm pretty sure Panzer32 is gone 'till Tuesday. We could pick someone from this forum, but not in this game, like notyoueither, to play it for him. Keep the admin password to yourself and whomever plays Panzer32's turn for him.

Got spare money?

I've recently played another PBEM game and had all of the players online at the time, and still only got about 3 to 5 turns done in a "night". So 1 turn a day is good enough.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

24hrs would be cool; but I've only had 2 turns and we're going on the 4th day. If everyone was closer together, timewise, then some turns could be played consecutively, like in a chat or something. Or maybe I need to learn more patience.

Can we have a third game so that notyoueither can play? We can make it a 'for fun' one and include all the Civ's as possible choices.

Since Panzer is gone for the next week or so, NYE can at least take over for him temporarily if he wants to.

OK, so we keep playing this one too?
If we decide to make a third game I suggest to drop this one...as three games will consume a lot of time....

You don't have to be in a third game, and playing sewveral PBEM games only take the time to remember what you were doing with it and then doing it and sending the save....
