That could also describe us too

Yah Hercules is on, he has to post the new turn now because they're already way past the 60 hour mark.

**Vev** · August 11, 2003, 18:40

Has anyone broken the 72 or 84 hour mark?

**Googlie** · August 11, 2003, 18:48

Well, right now PEACE are sitting on 81.5 hours

(turn was posted at 14:15 GMT on Aug 8th, and now 23:45 GMT on Aug 11th)

Sounds awfully familiar. Maybe they have slow ambassadors too!

**Kody** · August 11, 2003, 19:34

We only waited for 49 hours before we posted our turn.

**Kody** · August 11, 2003, 22:11

Do the pirates actually have a real reason?

Because I don't recall them giving anything except needing to drink xenorum.

**Googlie** · August 11, 2003, 22:48

per jdm's last post in the turn-tracking thread, it's diplomacy related - with 'Poly being down for so much of the weekend they can't get their polls together, nor can their negotiatee.

That's why I'm not fretting too much - just gentle prods from time to time in their respective forums as and when I can get on myself.

(And besides, in the official polls of a few months ago the only power i have is persuasion and public rdidcule - the option of having me play the turn wasn't accepted)

Captain Hercules is definitely having some problems, very likely xenorum related

He is in a PBEM with me and he asked the player before him to send him turn 2105 when he only played 2104 and now 10 days after we played 2104 he sends me turn 2104 again.

Hmmm too much extra-curicular activities

**Haon** · August 14, 2003, 01:00

I suspect that the Pirates and Uni have made contact.

The pirates may be stalling and the Uni may be going quick so that it appears like they have not made contact.

Also, my gut feeling tells me that the CyCon have not made officail contact yet.

I think we should anticipate a Pirate-Uni peace treaty, I have little evidence to back this, but I would not be surprised if this was the case.

**Vev** · August 14, 2003, 01:11

The Uni has much to offer to the Pirates, for the right price.

**Kody** · August 15, 2003, 08:35

The pirates have gotten industrial economics.

I just noticed that.

**Jamski** · August 15, 2003, 11:14

So a long way from Ind Auto still, that's GOOD

**Kody** · August 15, 2003, 22:15

But they didn't have industrial base.
