Giga map succession game??

[kcbob]

Is this not too cool? We've got players in Finland, England, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and the US all contributing to this. I wonder if Sid envisioned this when he wrote his first line of code?

BTW. Any chance we can build a McDonald's somewhere along the way? I'm hungry.

5 new cities and lots of settlers
discovered trade, philosophy, polytheism,
mathematix, university and astronomy.
next one is monotheism.
explored east and west, build one trireme.

Well, Kcbob, I suggest that when it will be your turn to play, the 1st two cities you will build are going to be called, McDonald and Burger King !

I think you have a perfect scheme here Julius - Prince in only 150 (double) posts!

LOL. Done.

BTW. You did notice that Scouse Gits busted you, didn't you? For shame. Then again, maybe I should give it a try.

Well, please let me try to defend mysefl !
First of all, I didn’t do it on purpose. And as I have maybe 4 or 5 times accidently hit the enter key at the wrong moment, it would only amount to 295 instead of 300. What a big deal ! But your remark help me understand why some people send strange message like “I just wanted to say hello”, “Lol”, or other stuff like that. So there is a race to become Deity ! Please count me out of it. If I post messages, it’s because I like to talk to some people in this forum, to provide some (valuable ?) informations and to make some (funny ?) jokes.
I know you were just teasing me, but let me set it straight. I’ve got other ambitions in my life than becoming a deity in the Apolyton forum. I hope that for some who know me and appreciate me well enough, I am already a king,.
Nobly yours, King Julius,.

Ah, the man who would be king. It is all in good fun, of course. If you want to see serious, try Off-Topic. It gets pretty cutthroat in there sometimes.

As for becoming a deity in the Apolyton forum, at the rate I post, I should attain that sometime around 2011, right when the Mayan calendar runs out.

I think I can contribute to this succession game. I can arrange the logs in a nice manner. Then we could post it (and perhaps admit it into the GL.)

What if the Hokey-Pokey is really what its all about?

Calling Muad'Dib ... have you finished your turns. If so, please forward to kcbob.

In another succession game, Maud'Dib has kind of dropped out of sight, too. I hope everything is okay. But, the game must go on, n'est-ce pas?

I also follow him in the other game. I've emailed and PMd him and if I don't hear back from him by noon tomorrow, November 23, I'm going to skip him. When he does finally turn up, we'll insert him back in then.

I would suggest a similar course of action in this game. If either Scouse Gits or Andemagne could send the game after Andemagne's turn to kcbob49@hotmail.com, we can proceed. And again, when Maud'Dib turns up, we can stick him back in then.

I think I know where he might be, though. He's obviously getting pumped up for the Dune mini-series on the Sci-Fi channel in a couple of weeks. Heck, he might even be in it.

Thank you, Andemagne. I have received the file... twice!

As I said above (I think), I'll wait until noon tomorrow to crank it up. That'll give Maud'Dib time to show his face. So to speak.

kcbob - Good work - let's keep this game moving. There is a lot ground to cover on a gigamap!

looks like this succession is having the same problem as the two v2.42 successions. That is people disappearing, and taking their sweat time to play while the thread just waits.

I like what you have done to remedy this.
