Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Fried-Psitalon's MP strategy advice is thorough and well thought-out. The only problem is that it is mostly from a internet MP environment, which is completely different from play-till-the-end-winner-takes-all PBEM games. Nonetheless, he's got some good insights into how humans play the game differently than the AI, which is very valuable to us in an of itself.

Fried's posts are excellent, I have read about 3 of them and all are well thought out and insightful.

Now if only Prima hired a guy like him, strategy guides would actually be useful.

In addition to SirPartyMan, who I vouched for earlier, I am now vouching for Stinkynuts, who is petitioning to join as I write this.

Stinky is the person most people on the Civ3 ladder consider to be my foremost rival for the #1 spot - and they're right. While I specialize in "Foot in face and hammer you down" combat tactics, Stinky is probably the meanest "Upgrade and Ambush" player I've ever seen. He specializes in Naval ambushes in particular in MP online games.

for Stinkynuts- please approve his invitation ASAP.

My last two for now- The_Great and Levi (short for Leviathan, which was taken here apparently), both excellent, top-notch members of the ladder, and good chums of mind. Very reliable, very solid, and very excited by the idea of what we have going on here. I have no doubt that they will contribute a great deal, and do so with some degree of eloquence to boot.

I readily and without a moment's hesitation stake my reputation on these last two, as well as the two above. (Like I've got a sterling reputation anyhow. hehe.)

Edit: Wow, you know, I never bothered to go back and read what anyone might've said about when I was invited..... geez.

That's some pretty high praise... boy, did I let you poor bastards down!

All four of F-P's recommended members have been authorized.

B-F - I am the only one with the power to authorize (muhahahaha ). I usually review the civ group chart on a quasi - regular basis - but was off-line for a couple of days. The best way is to e-mail or pm me. Sorry for the delay guys.

And to the new members - please anounce your arrival here and say hi to the team! Welcome aboard!

Thanks for vouching and authorizing ... I joined this team inspired by Fried's stories and insights of what this is really about. Hope I will be able to help the team. I work in DC and usually play or deal with Civ3PTW late at night. Look forward to read the details of the game ...

Welcome The_Great and other newcomers!

It should not be too difficult to get up to speed on what has happened and what we are planning if you look at the topped threads, but if any of you have any questions that you need help with (or you're just a bit lazy ), feel more than free to PM or email me for help. I am a Consul, but am unable to view or play the game at the moment (research trip overseas), so I have more time available for doing so than the other Consuls.

Of course any of the Consuls or other team members will help you, but I should be able to devote more time to your queries than many may be able to.

You have made the right choice and we thank you for helping the best team win!

newbie member Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

Hello everyone. Fried suggested I get involved with this group and, while my time is slightly stressed, I can't think of a better way to slack at work.

A little information about myself. I am 39M and have been around the internet a little to long. I used to post very heavily when we called this type of site a bulletin board. Now that I have dated myself, I have also fallen away from a lot of heavy posting (been there, done that)

I have been playing civ a long time and wanted to play multiplayer long before it existed. I have not really been a member of the civ online community before until PTW came out.

Shortly after I bought PTW I joined the ladder, then became a tournament director, then became an Admin then the head TD. Unfortunatly, this affected my play time adversely but it is how I feel I can best support the game. Somewhere along that process fried taught me some things and he thinks I am passable as far as my skills go.

Frankly, I am fairly good at the multiplayer environment but I lack a deep understanding of civ3 itself. I am here to contribute what little I can and possibly take away some tips and tricks to improve my own game.

I am definatly not aligned with any message board group, neither poly nor any other. Honestly I am slightly afraid of joining poly simply because I know how addictive online message posting groups can be and I won't go there again.

Expect me to lurk a lot at first mostly because I have a lot of catching up to do, but when I have things to say, you might have a hard time shutting me up; like now. hmmm perhaps that is a good note to end on.

intro Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I joined a few days ago, after being recommended by Fried. At this point, I'm not completely clear how this works, but I'll offer whatever input I can. I've been playing multiplayer very frequently, so perhaps I could offer some insight into playing against human opponents. Unfortunately I've been playing almost all of my games with accelerated production turned on, which may result in some of my perceptions and opinions being inaccurate for this game.

Hello folks, Rhothaerill would like to join. Does anyone know him? Any suggestions?

Here is his PM to me:

Re: ISDG
Unfortunately I don't know if anyone can vouch for me. I only just recently registered and started posting, though I've haunted 'Poly for much longer. I've also only just recently joined the C3DG game, which was what sparked my interest in the ISDG
I do understand why you'd be hesitant to just sign me up because of the cheating possibility, so if I don't get signed up I'll understand. Maybe down the road I'll try again if it doesn't happen now.
Thanks for your help.
