History of the World 8 - Organisation Thread (Pt2)

[Robert]

Well, if everybody is going to be late, then I suggest we just start half an hour later and keep going half an hour more.

Since mostly I'm the stopper I think that's fine with everybody if it's fine with me, and it's fine with me.

[Beta]

I'll be ready at 7pm.

Sorry for the non-posting regarding stories.

Not feeling well this week, and waaay too many family obligations.

Not feeling great now - but will be there. Might be pretty quiet though.

[Pinchak]

So are we starting at 7 then?

[dacole]

no....we are not starting at all...so what is the deal with this now are we trying next week?

Hi, my name is [kc]whiteknight, i am a friend of Nolan, and she gave me a privilage to sub for her this friday night in your game, sine she is very busy girl..., I hope you gents/ladies are ok with that. I am looking forward to playing with you, since i have heard all the wonderfull things nolan has told me about you/and the game.

My IM on yahoo is mariostrip@hotmail.com

please feel free to contact me at any time.

thanks a lot.

[Robert]

dacole: pinchak and me have tried to configure stuff, tonight we're going to see if we can already 'find' each other again, so yet, next week we just play.

@Whiteknight: Hi there! Great that you want to sub for Nolan! I guess that she informed you all about the game, the rules and the playing time, etc.

[[kc]whiteknight]

Yes, have all the info. Thanks ...can't wait

Welcome WK

[Glohithia]

Im gonna be missing 2 weeks of playing. May 11th and May 18th I will not be around. If somebody knows of a sub willing to run things, thats great. If not, let the AI take over and thats ok too.

[The Capo]

You guys play this on Fridays right?

What time? (Ozzy's time)

[Robert]

16:30 - 19:30 Ozzy time (if his timefield is filled out correctly on apolyton)

30 minutes from the moment I post this message. (minus one day)
You're going to sub for Mike, right! That would be great!!

[dacole]

let us know if you can find each other cybershy odd it worked before and then didn't this time. Hope it works!

Note also I will be overseas from May 18th (I miss this session) and may mis four sessins in a row subject to Internet access on the road in the UK. It's tricky. We'll be staying at B&B's all over the UK and Ireland and some have Internet access. I'll have a dual boot Mac laptop and Civ installed on the Win Xp partition; so hopefully I'll be able to play on some sessions.

I've asked Trev if he could sub on May 18 (may 19 in Aust) but his job causes uncertainty here.

I was thinking that maybe kb could somehow sub but not sure what he thinks about this and whether cities are temporarily gifted between his Indians and my Hittites. Also, not sure what the other players think about this.

??!!??

[Pinchak]

If you are talking about gifting your citys for a session so they can be managed by another civ... I have no problem with that.

May want to put your capital on building a wonder or something however, as you won't be able to trade it.

[Robert]

I'm pretty curious myself as well on how kb can sub for Deity

Pinchak: were you able to configure your router? Will you be able to test it this week? When?
