Am I talking to myself? Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Am I?

Feels like it. Well, occasionally Frustrated Poet will say something, so it falls just short of being a soliloquy.



-Arrian

Edit: that came off as not at all fair to FP. It's more like a 2-man band.

2nd Edit: my editing skills suck.

Oh really? No fcuking siht it came off as unfair to me!

"Occassionally I will saying something"??? Well thank you very much Mr. Patronising!!! I'm aware that you are a far better Civ player than me, but who has taken the time to play about 95% of the turns so far?

Oh ... that's right ... it's me!!

I realise that I'm the one who started this team and as such it's my duty to keep it going. I'm doing that as much as I can - sorry if it isn't enough, but I have a Real Life to lead too, y'know, and sometimes .... just sometimes ... it's more important than some daft computer game.

Honestly, I really don't know why I bother sometimes.

Which is why I edited the damn thing, but apparently I didn't do a very good job of it.

You've pretty much played the game. I should have said "are FP and I just talking to ourselves" (which, from the look of things, we are). I don't care about skill - I'm not sure I am better than you, and I don't really care either way. I was just hoping for better participation from others.

I'm sorry, FP. Seriously. I was annoyed, and wasn't thinking. As for your last sentence, well, that was my point. I dunno why we're bothering.

I have a real life too, hence not being around all weekend. And I'm not willing to put in more time than I have to either Demogame. Which is why other people are needed besides the two of us. Plus, you're going away soon, and will have unknown internet connection status for a bit.

I shouldn't post when I'm pissed off. It gets me in trouble.

Don't worry, there is no-one here to read it anyway.


I'm sorry I can't partake more, well much at all really. I am still involved a lot with the ISDG game (Ministerial duties for CGN) and all the attention that I can spare is pretty much on that. I don't have the game here with me so I can't play the turns, more than that I can only frequent the internet through cafes or generous employers so I can't even review threads at leisure. I really don't have that much time to look through all the threads that I want to. Post up polls and I will vote and/or give a quick thought here and there every so often.

Sorry I can't be more active.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

That's OK dude. Being several thousands of miles from home is a good excuse.

Actually, I'm impressed you still find enough time to keep up with the ISDG. Kudos.

Suffering from ads?

I check by every so often, but since my home PC's been dead for the last few weeks I've not been able to devote any real time to this (or any other) game. Now that I've got the thing working again though, I might actually start making the odd contribution. Putting me on the list of people to receive the save would probably help to remind me to do so...

eklektikos:

PM someone on the Latin Lover team and ask them to send you the save too. Or post the request in the turn thread.

Give me some time to adjust to me being in your team, but then I only have that much free (internet) time at work (during my midday pause).
