Yikes! I am in a tiny, little town this week. It's almost impossible to get online for more than a few minutes at a time.

you have to like his dedication though-- he does usually manage to get his turns out even when traipsing across America

I have endangered tiles all over the place this turn! How long has sea rising been going on and how far might I expect it to do so?

[Archaic]

I never recieved any Ecodamage warnings. Only noticed it this turn while looking around the map.

I think that last turn was the first turn as I saw endangered squares as well ( on all my 10m land-- this map has a lot of that) but I did not get the warning either-- Is it a set thing who gets it in MP ? or does the warning go out randomly or when the ecodamage limit is hit?

I believe that it is common practice to notify all players of such warnings so whoever sees such warnings should do so IMHO.

[Mongoose]

I'm pretty sure that it's the last player in the turn sequence that gets the warning...and only that player.

I agree with you, Flubber. I mailed Qantaga to that effect when I passed the turn.

[Flubber]

I know that Qantaga has been VERY busy travelling and had a lousy connection so I'm guessing he just forgot about it.

Mea culpa.

Things have been very hectic for me for the past 10 days. My boss gave me an "opportunity" and I had to spend all of this past weekend working on a presentation. I then had to fly out early Monday morning to give the presentation.

I knew that I was holding up several games, against my wishes, so on Sunday night, I played about 10 game turns as quickly as I could to get them on to the next player. By the time I finished, I needed to sleep. Battlefield Earth was one of the first ones I played, so I had many more turns to play before I finished.

I am sorry to have delayed posting the warning for a turn, but I did put a Post-It note in big, capital letters on my monitor and fully intended to post the notification with this next turn.

The sea warning came this very last turn, at the end of my year 2203. The seas will rise approximately 66 meters in the next 20 years.

I've really got to start checking this thread before I do my turns. Oh well. Turn to Mongoose

and mongoose " nice tactic"-- I knew that one but had never actually had it used against me-- How many units did it require?? ( ahh perhaps I should do some tests myself)
