    Jesus Wept. Just listen to these Australians. Take me back to Italy.

    Yes Deity, ever the gentleman, struggled valiantly to maintain decorum in your absence but he was fighting a losing battle. Now that you're back hopefully the tone will improve.

    But I think its worthwhile for everyone to see the way Australian males talk to each other. Probably explains my alleged "trollishness". What's normal banter for many Australians is something else for the rest of the world

      You mean typically affectionate Australian male exclamations such as "Garn, get one up yer!"?

            I recall a wide variety of euphemisms used in the "Get a (something or other) up yer" phrase. "Length" is one that springs to mind. So to speak. I imagine the all-encompassing "Get one up yer" saved dreaming up yet another euphemism.

              I think the chat from last night was probably worth posting - if only to show what a closet war monger and bully Deity is. He still has units occuppying a mountain right next to "Peaceful Horse", one of my cities.

              Hydey also distinguished himself by expelling one of my diplos which was trying to establish an embassy, thereby foregoing the possibility of early trade. Duh!

                  I think Hydey is the only player I know who comes close to playing like the Ai. Expelling the diplo a case in point.

                    With all the warmongering going on between the kind and friendly Deitians and these evil Horseman, the Hydey people where on guard and any breeching of our borders dealt with. Had the Horseman wished open up trade between our 2 nations all he had to do was ask .
                    Instead a diplo suddenly appeared with no notice next to one of my cities so I duely expelled it.
                    Next time Mr Horse might let me know what his intensions are before entering my lands, thus preventing any misunderstanding.

                      What? You're saying you don't trust The Troll? Good grief. What's the world coming to?

                        The Deiticians are anything but friendly in this game. I guess with makeo gone, Deity has noone to start wars with.

                          Get it right, Horse. DEITY doesn't start wars.

                                As I said in icq, AH built a city ON a MOUNTAIN ON our agreed border on land that we BOTH discovered at the same time = VERY PROVOCATIVE INDEED

                                In fact my horse I think is actually WITHIN a city radii of mine...
