Not really, blackgryffin, the thing is that with CtP, CivII, and SMAX we Mac users can play with the PC users, and so there hasn't been much of a use for this board.
Whoever created this thread undoubtably was trying to get some more action started up in here... but there isn;t that much in the way of Mac Civving to discuss.
No CtP2 Mac people on the project? I'm not surprised, since we'd have to have a CD... and the ability to somehow create an app that would read all the files off of the CD and use them, and as we don't know how the original game worked, it'd be rather hard to port it ourselves, don't you think?
Likewise with CivIII. There's been discussion and complaint about the fact that nothing like Conquests has been ported over to our realm, but what can we really do about it? Complain. That's it.
About the only badge of Mac honor we have left is the civgroup MarkG made for us after some begging and me posting various icon ideas. I proudly wear the Mac badge, and go off and play CtP and SMAX with the rest of the PC crowd, because that's easier, honestly, than trying to get anything else done.
Though I do have a copy of the Carbonized versions of SMAC and SMAX if you want it, just PM me... other than that and the Transmogrifier, I'm not sure there's really anything left for us in the Civving world... there's MOO3, but that sucked, IMHO, no matter the platform you played on.
