And microing doesn't slow the game down anyway. Just more stuff to play with between turns

if you like that sort of thing - this is really a diplo game map

The 4way could become interesting if I respond to Horse's serious provocations, I have generously allowed him all the space to the north of my capital as I had enough space to the South, but he has abused my generosity by building cities whose boundaries overlap with my cities including one so close to my capital, it overlaps with my capitals boundaries. If he dares to make use of any of those overlapping squares, the city will not remain his!!!

we don't play diplo trev, so please spare us the role playing speeches, just speak plainly

a 2 minute timer would be good start D - we can adjust if action requires it - maybe we can salvage the game. finbar and I were bored witless last night.

**deity** · July 30, 2005, 02:21

I like diplo speeches! And I like all the stuff you post to AH

Let's just enjoy the cr@p we all dish out

**deity** · July 30, 2005, 02:22

So all agreed on timer?

no let's just shut and play (quicker).

The game really has dawdled in the last couple of sessions. I don't know why. The civs aren't gigantic, there's no war, and there would have to be dozens of caravans out to justify the time taken. Maybe try the timer for a session to see who's bothered by it.

Discussing issues in the forum doesn't exactly slow down the game

OK, so that's 3 for the timer, Trev?

I shan't be around today. Invited out for lunch. Maybe tomorrow.

**Alexander's Horse** · July 30, 2005, 06:52

I have to give it a miss too.

**finbar** · July 30, 2005, 11:54

Just got back from lunch. Five hours of it. Sitting under a pergola on an olive farm overlooking the Tuscan hills. 35C but cooled by a gentle breeze. Highly recommended.
