HAD?

LOL!

I'm STILL HAVING fun

...unlike some...

Well we'll see tonight if I plunged the knife deep enough into you.

I certainly gave it a few good twists before you staggered away and shot me in the back as I fled

Well yes, I think you have

Like I said in the other thread I wanted to be attacked to maintain my SPOTLESS rep. The SS forced you guys to attack but the cooperative nature of your attack meant that I will now struggle to win this one.

The trouble is my SS was so successful I wasn't flexible enough to switch to a defensive strat because all my planning was for war.

[Alexander's Horse]

And then of course you wasted a lot of time and resources wiping out my civ when you should have been attacking makeo.

But what do I care? The only reason you could build an SS in the first place was all those techs you stole off me - at least 15 techs probably more than 20.

sounding a bit more serious now Horsie

... YOU wasted time going after me when you should have gone after Makeo

And I got just as many techs off Makeo as I did you and it wasn't 20

Besides I was doing a deal wth you to give you some techs I got off Makeo so that you could build a fast ship and beat Makeo; leaving Makeo to go after my cap. You'd have been in the clear - he had a fair chance of getting my cap even without your help..

Bet Makeo didn't know that

[Alexander's Horse]

Serious? Nah - this is just a game - one of many - the sooner you realise that the more you will enjoy your gaming.

You were hopelessly behind in techs - 15 was conservative.

I can only speak for myself but if makeo wins I think he is a worthy winner. It was really between him and me. We didn't nick any techs off anyone.

You were always going to get creamed because of your poor diplomacy in the game. If it wasn't me it would have been makeo. You basically made the world hate you.

Just my opinion

[deity]

errr, it's just a game Horsie

LOL!

Don't you see? I AM enjoying it, except for the fact I'm a slow fart
You're the one making serious statements about me not enjoying it, really and truely....

Horsie, what you got to realise is that Makeo was also behind you in techs. He or I could have at any stage wound up our tech rate to one tech per turn. He did this; I chose to steal techs and keep building units/infrastructure etc.

LMAO!

Between you and him? LOL!

I own 3/4 of the planet and I'm getting creamed?
While you are totally wiped out!

I'm surprised you don't get it - it doesn't matter if you have 100 cities or none - Elvis has already left the building.


If you don't get makeo's SS, you're just a dead man walking.

I will be watching with interest

deity needed to get rid of nasty Helvis

I'm surprised you don't get it, Helvis....

tbc...

[finbar]

Deity - I emailed you about the save. You'd better host. If you can't, we'll have to use my last save which was just before Horse disappeared.

[deity]

The great thing about this group is that despite differences the game continued, no one quit, and everyone stayed to the final deathblow - which is in about 5 turns...

A credit to the Aussie group I reckon

"You haven't got a chance deity", finbar of the Chinese.

"You should concede and get it over with", Horsie echoes from the heavens.

After a long turn last night (and thanks for patience) I may have given myself a good chance here. I took out several of finbars cities on the coast opposite the Aztec capital - SDI in tact
Makeo's response was brutal and destroyed my supply lines but I can restore them. It is my turn and I have a transport in Orangutan...
