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

[Toni]

Robert is the game down? Civstats is acting funny.

If people just don't check out the source of the posted images everything is fine anyway, but good call.

I had to make an edit in the story thread because I've realized that I've linked my picture from a place which could identify me. I thought I write it here in case others did the same mistake.-actually for me it's not that important to keep the hidden identity-I mean I don't know too many of the current players anyway- but might be important to someone. (From now on I will use this forum's attachment system)

Is it my display settings or is there really a huge white cap at the top of the last Persian Post?

I'm sorry.
It's a MSIE problem.
When one writes html codes with hard-returns, MSIE counts every hard-return has a white line at the top of the post.
I have removed all returns from my code now which removed the white block from the top of my post.

yes i want totaly free things... not make it easier for an advanced civ to get further ahead of me..

Rasputin, if you get a tech for a voucher, you get a totally free thing.
The other civ gains nothing. We only have 1 limitation, you can only get 8 free things in 1 game, that's what the 8 vouchers are for.

Civs are free to give you 1 tech without requesting the voucher they lost in return. But that will most probably not happen.
What you ask for is:

Civ x can get 8 free techs
Civ y can get 8 free techs.

Now X must give 1 of it's free techs to Y,
which results in:
X getting 7 free techs and
Y getting 9 free techs.

Nice 8hr turns, this will speed up things nicely!

[Black Knight 427]

Aww man and I wanted to use mt stick.

[Robert]

The 2nd turn has started! The next 99 turns will last 8 hours! 3 turns per day!
If you're not sure if you can play every turn, que some orders for your units/cities!

[Robert]

@Rasputin: there is a benefit, you can get a tech without researching it. Your 8 vouchers are a way to receive 8 techs. It's an advantage for you. What you want is a double advantage, you want to gain something where the other player loses something.

@Holy Britannia: I don't know, sometimes it keeps resetting your leadername on civstats. Just continue to put your desired leadername in. It should eventually accept it.
