	Historical Log of Major Events - Completed Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Ancient Times (Turn 1 to Turn 102)

Thanks for your earlier feedback & encouragement. Log is completed, for ancient times. It's more tiring than I thought I have tried to include as much relevant infor as possible, but at the same time not duplicating the efforts of our Ministers Trip, E_T, Togas.

Please feel free to comment. Please tell me if you want me to add/delete anything. I will continue to update the log regularly, like once every 10 turns or so.

Why are all the military events blurred?

I see a few spelling errors; nothing big though.

Also, panag's withdraw from the team is not noted.

Overall....very good job.

I think that's what happens when you save to a jpeg with compression too high.

Great job!!

This should be mandatory in Apolytonian schools and for new members on our team.

one correction: "Counsel" should be "Consul".

On a serious note, good job rush, it is looking very nice. One little thing: there are a few produced warriors showing in light blue, while they should be in purple (because they are military)

The trick would be to combine Rush's work with the "Story so Far" somehow...

nye, thanks for the info on Pyramids and NM3. I thot NM3 was lost around Turn 80-90, no wonder i can't find it.

Bigfree, I thot about the Panag issue, but it's more of members not quite getting along, and eventually someone leaves on his own initiative. It happened to UnOrthOdOx too, but he rejoined the Team later. I can add both of them in. Sorry about spelling mistake. It was never my strongpoint, but I do take "full responsibilty" for it.

BFM, Tarquinius, thanks for pointing our the errors. Luckily, I am more "careful" in my RL work, otherwise my boss would have fired me long ago.

F_P, this historical log gives one line description. Your thread adds all the flavouring and makes it so much more interesting to read.

Hagbart, the colouring suggestion comes from BFM

Trip, yes, it happens because i save it under jpeg. My original data is in Excel. I can try changing the colour, that could minimise the blurring. Any suggestion on how best to display Excel spreadsheet in this site ? Thanks.

To all, thanks for your support, I will update the changes by next weekend.

Good job rush - very thorough!

Since you've included other departures, you might consider putting GhenghisFarb's departure (to CDG) right at the top (he left before anything started, iirc).

I think we should make a spreadsheet through Excel that you can download from. But otherwise great job

Nah... Your story still gives a better quick overview of the world, without all those details. Rush's work doesn't show the relationships between civs and so. I think both is good to have.

Great work! I'm impressed.

Rush, try using GIFs with reduced color palettes. Any good image compression application can, in this particular case, easily reduce the color palette of the images to just the colors you use so you'll get a clearer picture (with none of this color bleeding that hurts my eyes so much) and it'll actually eat less space.

I'm not sure we need to mention the comings and goings of members.

SirRalph's and Aeson's departures though, were discussed at the UN. They were significant events in the game that brought up issues for all of the nations to consider. They are noteworthy.

MJW, thanks for your input. I know i must have missed something Actually, i think i must have missed out several Pact/Agreement signed with other civilisation, and some other Foreign Affair matters. Will be doing a more complete search this weekend.

nye, i will include the more controversial in-and-outs, but not everybody.

Shiber, thanks for your suggestion. I will try it this weekend.

Nuclear Master, the data is kept in a spreadsheet.

dejon, thanks for the suggestion, but i don't think our Consul will be very delighted with Ghengis Farb's name appearing on top of their appointment.

Great work, rush!

Small thing: Aeson did not leave due to a conflict of interest, he left because he opened the save with an editor and saw the whole darn map.

Actually he loaded the ISDG save from another game and it showed him CGN's turn.

He's now a mod at CFC and has a great deal of information from them, so there's really no chance of him ever returning.

Thanks Rhothaerill for bumping the thread. It reminds me that I have to update some of the latest events and make corrections to the errors made.

I should have updated it long ago. But last few weeks were brutal, my RL work and travel is just overwhelming.

But the good thing is, since I went to Singapore, I was able to get PTW finally !!! Don't think I will be actively playing it though, because I will still be busy for another week.

But I promise I will update this very soon.

Dominae - yes, that's exactly why Aeson left. Conflict of interest was a very common term i used in my work, so it got slipped in.

Actually... he left because of the map incident that Dominae mentioned.

He has declined to return because of the potential for confilct of interest since he has access to CFCs team forum as a consequence of his duties at CFC, not that he has looked, or ever wants to. The fact is that people know he could look and he is wise enough to remove himself from it ever being a problem.

BTW, the condition set by CGN for him to return to us has not yet been fulfilled, even if he wanted to return. They wanted him on the sideline until we possessed their map.

Hey rush, what do you use to create this if I may ask? Would it be possible to post the file? (I understand if there's a fear of people ripping off your work. If you're uncomfortable, don't worry about it then )
