Gee... I thought it was standard operating proceedure to always say... "Thanks for the vet" to whoever attacks you when you win

[rah]

It is

Once I remember early in the game you telling me you got something good from a hut, and then when the turn cycled I could hear the barb attack in the background over the headphones. Since it was before 3250, It had to be a barb from the hut.

Good stretch

RAH

thats b/c i opened two huts and neglected to mention the barbs

[rah]

A likely story

[War4ever]

what ! You don't believe me

[rah]

In an MP game, I only believe what I can prove. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU"RE INVOLVED. But then, I expect the same from you.

RAH

[Ming]

Yes... MP Propaganda... just like a real war

[War4ever]

many players are good at that...though i rarely stretch the truth....

[rah]

No worse than Ming's "this bloowwwwws" proclamation one turn prior to dropping both cities.

RAH
And yes I have been known to do it too. But I usually use a more simple *sigh* instead of the more demonstrative "THIS BLOOWWWWS"

[Alexander's Horse]

early markets probably makes more sense in 2x.

[Ming]

Maybe in my trade city... but too much production to waste that early in other cities. To busy spitting out settlers

And Rah... you have it wrong. It goes...

THIS BLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWS!

[War4ever]

yeah, Rah's typical response is *clean but , sigh*

you KNOW the ferrets have something decent......

or the proverbial... *well its clean, but its the worst of the three* ... meaning he doesn't have wine or gold in his radius...but can see a hut and a whale...and KNOWS it will get better.....

Mings *THIS BLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWS! has now become legendary....

new rah rules material for these two jokers

[rah]

Or sometime War tries the opposite strat. He tells you how great his opening is. GOLD, whales, silk, pheasants, huts, non-units, nomads. It's so good, you have already lost so a restart is in order. It's always very convincing. BUT, the last time, I opened a save later..................hmmmm,

RAH

[War4ever]

MOI?????? well that is the lasttime i tell you about my start....i ALWAYS tell the truth..too a fault...especially in duels b/c i don't want to play if my opponent has no chance of a comeback....

i only pull that if my pheasants start has no chance of beating the gold U just happened to stumble across

[rah]

Oh I believe everything you say. It's what you don't tell me is the biggest concern. As you stated previously.

So you always have to wonder what's not being said.
