Just asking

Gramps

[sabrewolf]

darn, this one looks interesting :)

if you decide to take on another player, ... :eager:

[John-SJ]

GT,

Yes, the only way we can win is by space race victory. But, no option is set that will prevent war...:eek:

[Addled Platypus]

3960 to John-SJ

game number 2 saved from the depths of ....

thanks GT

[John-SJ]

I'm sorry sabrewolf, but why not start another OCC or something else that interests you? I'd be glad to join, and I am sure others will too! :)

Now, I am not sure, but wouldn't conquest still be virtually equivalent to a victory? I mean, if you eradicate all opponents, then it's just you (plus barbs, possibly), and that's a virtual guarantee of a space victory, yes? :)

[Addled Platypus]

does it matter about my mod do you think?

it was in only our game that it affected?

[vovan]

Not if PR didn't check the no mods checkbox when setting up the game.

ok

Thanks

Looking forward

Gramps:D

[Addled Platypus]

slight back track

3760 to vovan

was this a John-SJ set up?

hopefully no pw, if so restart?

[vovan]

Yes, indeed, there is a password. I suppose a restart is in order, unless you would like to wait for John to return and continue this with him.

BTW, PR, I notice you sent this manually through GMail... Is there still no way to use GMail in-game, even with the new patches? If so, I'm thinking maybe a mod is in order. :) I got so used to auto-mail thingey, I can't imagine living without it. ;)

Vovan

[Grandpa Troll]

restart

Gramps:b:

[Addled Platypus]

I will set up after work tonight (2:30 am pst)

wish I could mod

do we pick a Civ?

[vovan]

Random Civ for me.

I'll also look into making appropriate modifications to make the game work with GMail, there are many users of that service, after all. :)

Vovan

[Grandpa Troll]

Random Civ for me as well:b: :D

[Addled Platypus]

i will delay until 1/09/06 9pm to pick civs

Any way, on to Mr. Troll.

(BTW, do you think we should start a new thread for this, in case John shows up and would like to continue?)

[Addled Platypus]

John just PM'd me

he has no interest in C4 at all
