Taurus if someone drops out I will put you in their spot. So be ready to play when you are sent the file. I only want 10 players MAX. For organization reasons mainly. If someone else wants to start another game after they can have more or less players.

Passed on to DaveV - we now have eight cities and are researching Mysticism - Monarchy having failed to materialise - the conch has passed to DaveV see the story in http://www.stusdomain.org.uk/Succession/
Your supposed to send all saves to me!!!!! So I can redistrubute them. Scouse Gits your FIRED!!!! I'm joking of course. Everyone send your files to Scouse Gits because he is making the site but still post your comments here!

I now have the save from CornMaster - will probably give it a whirl tonight or tomorrow. I have also set up a framework for the "History of Apolyton Succession" - it can be found here - comments welcome
Sorry CornMaster, but it was 03:15 local time and we had just destroyed an incoming half case of red - so please, please forgive us....
Save coming your way: -
Silver Dragon, MWHC and anyone else that might care…I am still interested in doing the non MGE version of this. I would rather not do the Gits’ (Scouse Gent(s), can you clarify where the apostrophe should be in this instance?) and Cornmaster’s role of Grand PoohBah or whatever their title is. I would be happy to play, and if necessary act as a hub for the distribution of the saves though. I don’t want to do the first turn however, so if someone wants to do that I’ll gladly do the next. I would suggest following the same structure as the MGE game.
My email is listed above, but if there is any doubt its johnmcdiarmid@newscientist.net. (Aha! you cry. So that’s how he came by his handle! He named it after his email address).
I've played my turn, but can't find an Email for Smash, who appears to be next on the list (although SGs' list shows me taking two cracks in a row!). I've mailed the save and the following text file to CornMaster and SG1:
Upon my succession to the regency, I formulated four goals for my reign. In order of importance, they were:
1. Monarchy. In order to allow Prince Smash to achieve his birthright, the Monarchy tech had to be discovered.
2. Defense. I thought our nation needed some protection against barbarians and other civilizations.
3. Exploration. Relatively little of the world was known to our cartographers.
4. Expansion. More land, more cities, more trade arrows.
To accomplish these goals, the following steps were taken:
1. The cities of Arrakis and Ahab were built in some heretofore ignored high-trade areas on the southern end of our home continent. Roads were built to generate extra trade arrows. I am pleased to report that Monarchy was (finally) established in 525 BC.
2. An archer was built to defend the capital, and horsemen were stationed to protect the core cities. The treasury was built up to provide cash for rush-building or to pay protection money to the barbarians.
3. Several horsemen were sent out exploring; unexplored coastline on our home continent was charted. Unfortunately, nothing better than fish was found.
4. The city of Paultimore was built as a gateway to new lands; several settlers are in position to begin exploiting this potentially rich area. Map Making was selected as the next advance after Monarchy, to provide further means of exploring this world.
The one serious mistake I made was starving a settler to death by over-managing the city of DaveVston (oh, the irony!). Good luck, King Smash!

Now this is too cool! This is exactly what I had in mind when I asked for commentary. Well, actually, I was thinking more of a bland .txt entry somewhere. This is too cool. Did I say that already? Well, it is!
Great work, SG!! Now, when I get the game and screw it up, I can at least embellish my efforts with spin so no one will notice. Right???

right on guys -- you are too kind -- but thanks anyway
I wrote the time-line from CornMaster's original modified list (before Christantine went incomunicado) and so simply moved ourselves and DaveV up one slot - I shall correct it tonight - I don't have ftp access to the site from work.
This really is a good idea - it was seriously challenging to take over from an unknown position and try and do the 'right' thing by it - and in doing so probably undo all that your predecessors had been striving to achieve
My apologies CornMaster and Maud'Dib for any destruction we might have wrought upon your plans - I can't wait to see how the universe has changed now that DaveV has had a spin
Johnmcd - as I indicated on MWHC's other thread - I'd be in for a 2.42 version - and indeed I could 'host' another site - after all the design work has been done now ... just let me know who, what & where - but if you start it please keep a 4000BC save - unfortunately that has been lost for the current game so it can never be repeated ....
good civin'

p.s. CornMaster, Maud'Dib - if you would like to embellish the legends of your respective reigns I will happily post them on the site - failing that I shall extract the summaries you have posted on this thread

I do look forward to "fixing" what I receive. And I'm really looking forward to seeing how Paul converts this to a OCC game.
BTW. It's probably a little late be here is my best guess at centralizing everyone's email addresses. Those I can find anyway.
Ok will I just finished the first 20 turns. 2 minutes. A lot quicker than I thought. Anywho I'm ready to pass it on. How should I get it to you MWHC.
By the way, I have 2 cities and 2 warriors with 1 settler on the way in Apolyton (Capital) and 1 Phalanx coming in Civ2-MP Forum. I know lame city names but I'm tired. Also we are the Apolytoners of Team Apolyton!!!
The dawn of time was friendly to the Apolytoners as we were able to build our wonderful capital city, Apolyton, next to a delicious Buffalo. Then the first warrior emerged from the city to explore the unknown world beyond.
He followed the coast to the west until he came upon a friendly group of nomads that were overjoyed to see such and advanced civilization, and jumped at the chance to join. These new settlers founded Civ2-MP Forum near a rich fishing ground.
Apolyton's wise men also made a military discovery of bronze working which would better allow us to repel our enemies. And then took the first step toward a organized government, by beginning research on Ceremonial Burial which would lead us to Monarchy.
As this was happening in the west a new warrior emerged from Apolyton and began to explore the east, other than discovering the secert of Pottery from a friendly group of nomads there was little else there. It was mostly empty, untamed land. After the warrior emerged a new group of settlers began training in Apolyton as a Phalanx began constructed in Civ2-MP Forum.
After a little more exploring the regine of CornMaster came to an end. As he reviewed his empire he felt no regrets.....except that it was over....And has he went into hibernation until his next regine and hoped that Maud'Dib and the Kings that followed would lead the Apolytoners to greatness.
(/dramatic recount)
lol You can add that to the site under my name.
