    Exactly, and they should see how we handled it so we don't waste time repeating ourselves.

    I saw a lot of frustration and arguing and complaints about what a "real" diplogame is and how the game was being ruined. Then it all just collapsed under the weight of bad feelings and never actually finished. Just like HOTW4, just like other Diplogames as well.

    Learning from that I think we absolutely need a points system like what Lz & I are proposing.

    I agree with Lz, if we care about the entire game then we shouldn't declare a winner based solely on what he does in the last couple turns, we should take a long view of the game and award victory based on that. The spaceship is part of that, and should be an important part of that, but it isn't all there is to victory.

        I think we should bump this, which I've already done, and get back to what the thread was intended for... creating a list of diplogamers for HOTW VII.

              TBH, I always thought that the difference between a Diplo-game and a different type of Civ game, was that all the bickering would happen IN CHARACTER within the Diplo-game, rather than before hand.

              Oh, and GMT on the dot (although +1 atm since it's BST for now) for me

                Well, the bickering occurs both ingame and out-of-game . But for the most part, yeah, mostly IC, with a few exceptions (e.g. the Indian Cossacks debacle).

                I'm GMT +8 by the way. No such thing as daylight savings here, just so you know

                  To me the DIPLO style is about the Role Play that occurs, having to justify the actions taken in game by your characters Story in the Threads here at poly.

                    To help us organize this further, I am going to request everyone post their AIM name, I will add them to the master list in the OP. I will add everyone who I have.

                          I still say we should use IRC. It's a better system than working out who's on what IM network.

                                Hello, all. I'm new to Apolyton since they kicked me out of the MP Ladder because I kept bugging them to play something like the diplogames you have here. Just Kidding! I'm still a Ladderite in good standing but I do have a big mouth and I love the idea of diplogames. Sign me up, please! Reports that I love diplogames because I suck at Civ are greatly exaggerated. The fact that I suck at Civ is beside the point.
