re:

hi conmcb25,

what happened to you, i saw you very active at CDG forums playing civ2 games, now that we moved to EVO, i didnt see you anymore!!! many players dissapeared

[conmcb25]

I got busy with RL and sort of dropped out for a while. Things have settled down and I got a new job.

Im probably not going to be playing CIV 2 much anymore. Things have settled down but I just dont have a lot of time for PBEM any longer.

Which about sums up what happened to just about all the civ 2 pbem players...

[conmcb25]

Hey Henrik good to see you again.

Ah the days of the Boney Tourney and Beta testing Colonies IV. Those were fun days

Boney 2 still one of my all time favorite PBEM's.

[conmcb25]

Darius is dead to us. I suppose he shall never return

[Traianvs]

[conmcb25]

Im actually playing Colonies III by Patient English right now SP, but my PBEM days are over in CIV II.

Heck hardly any of them ever finished..........

And that was 4 or 5 years ago.

There are still some old hands around, personaly I know at least 25-30 people who still play MP and there are some PBEM games still running.

[Eivind IV]

No shame in that, con. I of all people know how much the PBEM community has declined over the years. Although, the few people still remaining are very reliable and commited to finishing the PBEMs they join.

And atawa, invite them to the PBEM forum then. We're in dire need of new blood!
