The Dance of Civilizations [Diplo Game] [Organization Thread Pt1]

[Robert]

The game has been paused so we have some time to figure this problem out.

First of all: let's all stay calm, after all it's only a game. (eventhough *some* players spend more time on playing their turn then on having breakfast )

We now have to figure out if the Byzantine attack on England is legal treacherous backstabbing or illegal ooc action. If it's the first, we need to take a deep breath, count to 10, perhaps some cold turkey time, and then move on, if it's the latter we must first confirm it and then find a way to continue.

First a question to both:
@Byzantium: *if* we find out that there's some illegal ooc-action, are you then willing to undo the wrong?
@England: *if* we find out that it's 'only' legal treacherous backstabbing, are you then willing to continue playing?

[Byzantium (DoC)]

I can't log back in - my Peruvian friends have a computer which doesn't like mine.

I can't wait around any longer. I am going to have to go back in first thing in the morning to re-finish the turn. Sorry England.

[Robert]

And I will keep crashing it till you surrender!!!

[Byzantium (DoC)]

your joking?!!!!

Finally RP's identity is revealed - you attack him and he crashes the server!

I think in fact i was done by the time Korea logged in, but i will log in to check and end turn visibly

[Robert]

sorry, server crashed, rebooted from Korea login. Byzantium/Persia/Korea were in, they have to replay everything they did after Korea logged in. I'm sorry.

[Robert]

for the record: nothing is being rushed.
I'm only sharing info that I got from others and I thought it should be something everybody should know. (equal spread of knowledge)

If you don't believe the game will be finished that soon, then that's ok of course! And you're right, there can happen a lot still!
We're not giving up at all! I'm not at least

I vote 3.

Is so easy saying game is over in 1 week i think it is not true. Indians can no way win culture as no time left for the last city to be ledgendry. India win domination only with kill of mali on continent and vassel plus vassel inca egypt plus maybe persians. i think space race has not begun and english lead score.

Game will last more than 1 week if english fight and byzantine are still big. Only korea is murdered as persia does not lose land. Natives get very large as well.

I think it is just silly thing to give up when a game is still fun. Even if spce race starts espianage still can harm things.

[Robert]

I don't accuse you with accusation.. or should I?

Maybe you only suggested it

Korea and Greece are not played by the original player anymore. Korea is now played (both story and mechanical) by the player did already play Korea mechanical (and Greece).

Ozzy has been asked to sub for Greece.

Nothing worse than being accused with accusation...

[India (DoC)]

[Robert]

No need to argue
I never intended to suggest that you did something unfair.
I only tried to explain my reasoning behind the 'wait 2 turns' call, which was indeed unofficial. I just tried to give people a chance to negotiate deals instead of a 'first the best' approach. I think his worked well. (I did negotiate my deals). That you're a tad bit earlier doesn't matter at all here.

And the fact that I had forgotten about dropping the 1 on 1 requirement certainly had no impact at all, apart from showing my incapability to remember things
And only guilty minds could read an accusation in that post of me above yours

Friends again, or will you sue me now

[India (DoC)]

Because you forgot that 1 on 1 trades no longer necessary. Now I gave a tech to someone without getting anything, how unfair is that to anyone? (Also did a one on one trade but those tech still can be given away without getting anything for it.)
Don't suggest that anything unfair thing happened, it could have been if the 1 for 1 rule would still in place but it's not.

[Robert]

I thought it was 2 turns, doesn't matter much.
Yeah the rules don't state it. It was just an unofficial attempt to make it a bit more fair

it's ok.

[India (DoC)]

I've just accepted some free trade offers..and the rules doesn't say anything about waiting, still waited one day as you asked, but it was over.
