    Just a thought. How about playing 1st 30-40 turns on TCP IP and then PBEM-ing? It really could speed things up and it will take only half an hour.

      I wouldn't be able to manage that I'm afraid. Got far too many Uni commitments to be able to spend a night gaming.

        It's always hard to get four people together at once, especially when at least one is 14 hours different.

          To take the place of TCP/IP, the game can be accelerated a bit by adding two monoliths to everyone's start sites. I also suggest allowing the stockpile energy bug; it speeds up the early game.

            2104 sent to Archaic. The first three moves were played for you by the AI.

              Archaic, I've noticed your turn pushing in RTT has been slowed down tremendously, and you say you've got a lot of uni committments.

              If you can't play the game on a speedy basis, especially in the early going, then maybe it'd be best to find someone who can.

                DD, so does that mean I don't get to choose my free tech?

                  Don't worry. My Uni commitments won't interfere with the game too much from this point on. I should be averaging 1 turn/day/game again for at least the next month or so.
                  Will we be having a seperate turn tracking thread for this game?

                    2104 to darius.

                    I think we should think of a name for this game, and start a new turn-tracking thread.

                      2104 to SmartFart.

                      I agree, we need a name. I'm terrible at thinking of names, so someone go ahead.

                          2105...to Archaic.

                          Map is visible. No black squares. Is that something we have agreed upon earlier? Or its a bug?

                              Must have been an option that DD selected when setting up the game.

                                True about the map, even though I stated in the settings for it to be not visible.

                                Oh well, just a game.

                                as for name, I like Package of Doom. Thank Main Brain.
