The HOTW VII - Setup Thread II (or the entrance of new mods)

[LzPrst]

there is a fine line between genius and insane

but really, it isnt that far a leap. it's all about thinking that someone is less worth than yourself for ethnic\cultural reasons and institutionalize it. the base for thinking like that is generic, it can be fitted into almost any culture or religion. As the hotw5 german empire happened to be jewish, then their fascism was based on judaism.

Did you?
Finding a sub is a responsibility you have yourself at the first place. If there isn't any at the beginning of the game we see if we can get one from somewhere. Most probably we'll pull someone from LzPrsts flat in

[MMC]

I've been looking, I was just wondering if you'd found someone to step in.

That was no joke. Everyone was out. I just got you all connected last session and I looked out my window and saw the baby Guinea Pig on the grass OUT of the cage. I went in to a total panic. My office/PC room is 2 metres from national park/sheer drop of 60 metres but covered with some vegetation.

As soon as I went out my office door (under the house) the pig ran away from me of course and straight over the cliff. I had to run after it, which made it panic more of course and I fell over the cliff but captured by vines and other vegetation. Clambering up I grabbed at the grassy patch on the edge of the cliff whewre I thought the pig was hiding. Couldn't find it. I think I then raced in and sent you all a message.

Then I scrambled around in total panic and in maximum fear of my daughter who was out luckily. I couldn't find the damn thing and in most cases like this you'd have to say you'd never get it back.

But I kept quiet for a moment on the edge of the cliff and heard a squeak coming from my feet area. I knew I was still in the right area. I looked under a small rock ledge and saw what looked like snake sized hole and a tiny patch of fur - it was the Guinea Pigs ass.

I grabbed at it thinking I could pull it out by the fur but all I did was pull the fur out. Luckily it was siol underr neath rather than rock so I started digging with bare hands UNDER the pig and got it!!

All the while you guys were chatting away...

[deity]

BTW I'll load the game up an hour before official start time and we can get cracking as soon as we are all in - hopefully at least 30 mins early as Cyber suggested...

[Robert]

If our Guinea Pigs escape or die we just buy new ones. But maybe it's not that much of a deal because my son/daughter hasn't been born yet and won't kill me if the Guinea Pig is gone

I'll be there at 21:30 UTC
Can't wait to start the new session! I'm totally psyched about this game!!!!!

Good story though Deity, you should incorporate it in your real HOTW story

[Thrak]

I can ask a good friend of mine if he will sub; he is a capable civ player and works nights with fridays off. all depends if I can get in touch with him

[MMC]

Thank you... Although all signs point to me actually being able to make it.

On a related topic... isn't it great when you already have a broadband connection included in your rent and already active when you move to a new place

I just don't know how able I'll be to set my PC up in time. 2 hours should be enough to get the basics in and running.

[LzPrst]

sounds good. my main subbing flatmate is a little unsure of whether he's gonna be home or at his girlfriends place...ahem...reading poetry...

I might be able to activate some of the others, but they are acute wow-oholics and will probably be raiding some big heavy dungeon... boring. yes I know.

[MMC]

"Activate"

I like that...

I watched The Bourne Identity last night, so my mind says you should be worried about your flatmates.

[LzPrst]

hahaha!

sorry. not civ-related, but as I was mumbling about warcraft in the above post, I got this in my inbox. civ roxxxorsz!1!

[Robert]

I had a colleague who played WOW every night so in the morning he entered the building at 12am with sleepy eyes etc. When he came home he started top lay again. his wife also played so the only sex they had was in-game

He was the only one who understand that I played friday nights of my colleagues. He didn't understand why I didn't play monday, thuesday, wednesday and thursday as well though.

MMC: Great that you can play!
Seems like we don't need extra subs for tonight. Thrak will play for The Capo, and I think we can hardly call him a sub since it seems like he'll take over the Romans anyway.

Cool! Can't wait!
All be sure to be online in time so we can rock&roll as early as possible. Only 2 more turns before I finish the great lig.... oops, can't tell

[Robert]

Great stories guys and gal!
Only Toni and Colonel_Treize still have to post a story.
I've read them all completely, which is totally new to me. I'm to psyched about this game

To me LzPrst is the 'story winner of the first session' to me (not that we have such an award )
His short Oden stories were really good. He has the ability to write short interesting stories. I'm struggling myself with that. My stories tend to become much to long. Great job dude! you wrote them yourself?

Frank gets a nod as well for giving a very original approach. I liked Prussia's pickup of LzPrst's story as well. I was dissapointed that the princess/queen/whatever agreed with the alliance though. I was that happy with the sudden change from all pro-viking alliance to a cold atmosphere but unfortunately Prussia didn't dare to take the privelege he got from LzPrst and FINISH the story by FINISHING the viking representant That's what I would've done
