Succession Games -- Status Report

[-Jrabbit]

If I can only have variety in one area, I would prefer it be in my golf course visits.

Best of luck on your "Sailing" expedition...

Played O Sole Mio - 5 turns - quite good fun!
Might get to Dirty today - but no promises

Has Ben given up on Civ 2? He seems to be in OT every day, but never visits us any more.

SG, if you have the time, then do you fancy playing a few turns in a lazy fashion? And if Vlad is still playing then please post here to say so - you can fit into the order wherever you want. Sorry for omitting you from the brief order I gave, but I only checked the last couple of pages of the thread and there were only 4 players listed.

Hopefully I can take Sailing this weekend. I should be sorting out an ISP on Saturday, but there is a lot of football on the telly so I'll be spending most of Sunday in the pub.

Sorry, doy, not on the Lazy roster ...

:gloat: basking in the glory of a 1Gbps ADSL driving a wireless network - so sitting at the kitchen table with laptop :gloat:

No, I was inviting you aboard the good ship Lazy.
I can't convince you?

[Mutter]Damned gloaters. Especially when they've got a good reason to gloat.[/Mutter]

Played Dirty - think Zedd is now up

The Free-for-all game is now history! The victorious Anarchists demolished the hapless AI in 1857 in what could truly be called a saturnalia of gore! The last city to be bribed was defended by a Phalanx...

From approximately one month from start to finish, this format seems to be a promising one, and might be given some consideration should one wish to attempt to revive some of the longer running efforts.

[duke o' york]

If it had been any other day when the game had finished, then I'd be tempted to start a new one, but since speed is of the essence and those who are not up in any of the other games need somewhere public to show off their skills, then someone start another game!

You have free choice of the settings, and all we ask is that you make it fun for all (and free)(and soon! ).

I was going to do one of my "restart" games, where I basically just wander about and try to pick up as many NONs as possible until a set date, and only then found a city. This would obviously be on the last turn before passing the game on to the next player, and it'd better have 4 specials after all that exploration!
Whoever wants to start the next game is free to use this idea if they'd like - it's not as if I hold any rights over it. But start it soon!

The State of the Nation

As I see it the present position is:

Second Sailing: SG[1], willing to pass if anyone can step in
Scorched Earth: STYOM -> Old n Slow
Lazy: Vlad Antlerkov -> Old n Slow
O Sole Mio: Cyrion playing then DaveV
Dirty: -Jrabbit

Us-Against-Them: anyone bar Grigor, SG[1], Old n Slow or -Jrabbit

According to my notes, JRabbit just played in Lazy, making La Fayette next with the good Duke to follow (Ben Kenobi, Vlad & Straybow have all been skipped and can be inserted back at any time.)

Unless I hear otherwise, I'll complete Scorch tomorrow night.

There is some uncertainty to my schedule over the next few weeks, so my play time might be unpredictable (going away to visit family, will pack civ disks in case gaming opportunities arise...)

[Old n Slow]

I think I'm all caught up -- so I'll take my leave (temporarily.) I'll be out of town next week with family -- SWMBO want to visit the new grandchild.

Looking forward to my turn(s).

Grandpa!!



Congrats!!

All I can say to my son...

Done with my turns in Dirty succession -- so it turns to

(skipped STYOM)
La Fayette
then SG[1]...

In the O Sole Mio game, cyrion kicked some serious tail and DaveV is at the helm...
