    Cruel World

    Players and order of play

    M. Darkheart II: Murlock Darkheart of the Romans
    EPW: EPW of the Assyrians
    Ricketyclick: Ricketyclick of the Japanese
    Grandpa Troll: Grandpa Troll of the Chinese

    Creator: Murlock Darkheart ( dodgethis_copycat@hotmail.com)
    Moderator: still looking

    Game Settings

    Skill level: Deity
    Barbarian Threat: Ruins only
    Map Size: Gigantic
    World Shape: Earth World
    Bloodlust: ON
    Pollution: ON
    Map: Random (70% water)

    Cheating for me involves the following. I hope all of you will honor these things, if you don't understand them, then you probably don't have to worry:

    - looking at someone elses turns

    - saving and loading to get better results out of ruins or warfare, like inciting revolts, looking inside cities or inside stacks. If you want to know what someone has inside a city then use a spy, that's what they're made for.

    - rush buying a certain production and then changing it to a different production, and by that I mean any kind of production, so this includes changing a certain building to a different building (so we don't get confused what's ramping or not, just don't do it at all)

    - incorrect/weird use of slaves, by that I mean creating slaves out of your own slaves (normal use of slaves is no problem)

    - placing a farm or mine under a city on purpose just before the city is built so that it stays there for the rest of the game

    Some other things to think about :

    - use your own judgement if something is a cheat, try to think if it belongs to the game or if it's abusing a bug

    - I wish everyone an enjoyable game!

    I'd like to add that the tile improvement (other than terraform) under city should be disallowed in this game. Also, Mathemagician has written a cool slic file which causes the game to notify when your units have been bombarded, when a city increases in population, and empties the build queue after a unit has been built (assuming you didn't put anything else there that is). All of these are options which the player chooses to turn on or off in the first turn. Anyone want to restart with that slic file?
    I think I think, therefore I might be. Paraphrased from Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914)

    isn't there a way to make the adjustments after we started?

    it is a very useful slic though, you're right about that, but Gramps wants to get on with it. I guess it's up to EPW.

    What do you say?

    Oh, and...

    I'll include the tile improvement under citytrick!

    I'm still waiting, i haven't seen anything yet. I think you're sending it to the wrong mail adress. So I've sent you a mail which you can reply to with the turn, that way, nothing can go wrong. But I haven't had an answer from you yet.

    I've got no clue what's going wrong, but I didn't get anything again. I don't know how to solve this problem. Just resend please (I've sent you a mail to reply again), I'm sorry if it's my fault, but like I said, I wouldn't know if it is or not.

    You can try back2basics2@hotmail.com next time as well as this one. That one might be full of junkmail cause it only has 2 MB storage but at least we'll have a better chance that at least one will arrive.

    This is probably annoying you guys just as much as it is me, sorry about that.
