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

[Byzantium (DoC)]

India - rather than a cheap move I think you mean a good move, or in Persia's words a strategic move.

However, I can assure that you I fully understand your earlier request that if anyone else does join your war with England and Persia, they should join them in the turn order, to avoid a very complicated situation. But the truth is I am not at war with you, and have no imminent plans to be at war with you. Indeed given Korea's attitude, I think Byzantium's next war will be repulsing a Korean invasion of the Inca.

[Persia (DoC)]

I'm sorry for not telling stories. It's a bit busy IRL right now.

@India/Byzantium: I understand India's feelings, but there's no war between Byzantium and India. If India would have wanted to preserve turn order then you should have declared war earlier.

Before our war started (India/Persia) both of us were also trying to get the best turn order. At a certain moment both of us logged in 1 sec after the turn started.
I had to let it go which also gave me a bad position in the turn order.

I think it's a strategic move.

Not to mention of course that India is allowed to start first next turn anyway. (there's no war (yet?!))

[India (DoC)]

Bah, cheap move, Byzantium. While not technically illegal you achived something with double move which you couldnt had done without it-you knew that my ships would had attack or at least block your transports... And now when you finally decide to attack the turn order will be messed up. ejh ejh..

[Korea (DoC)]

wow.... must be persia next...

FYI, I'm available to sub again. My time with the Natives is over.

To date I've subbed for: Russia, Arabia, Rome, Byzantium, Egypt, India & Native America.

[Robert]

Ok, game's up again.
Ottomans miss a turn, but I've heard from a reliable source that Arabia didn't move during last turn either, so it's even there.

First in turn: Arabia
then: Ottomans

[Inca (DoC)]

this now not joke. if 24hrs is not sufficient then bad luck but 48hrs is stupid and unfair on all others. Let ottoman lose turn and tough and this sets up very bad practises for the rest of the game. 24hrs should be maximum and no exceptions unless player has died.

[Robert]

Well, better wait a bit now then be sorry tomorrow.
But I'm not really happy that the Ottoman player did not give us a heads up after he was not able to make it yesterday at the time he said.

[India (DoC)]

I wouldnt be as patient as Robert.. (he might be on the other extreme though.. ready to wake up in the middle of the night to relaunch the game.. damn I might do it aswell )

[Russia (DoC)]

so we're waiting for ottoman? who has not made any word of what's up?
how long do we hold up the game?

(he has not replied to my PM's either)

[Arabia (DoC)]

Unable to play this morning due to pause.

[Robert]

Everyone else already played.
No word from Ottomans last night

[Korea (DoC)]

you can wait for the next 24 hr period as you already moved in the previous one.

[Mali (DoC)]

And what about those of us who aren't the Ottomans that need to take a turn?

[Robert]

Game has been paused again, only 10 minutes on the timer. Ottomans: please PM me when ready. My cell phone may then wake me up
