    We've tried before. The time zones make it pretty much impossible. When we lose daylight saving - which is pretty soon - we'll be about 9 hours ahead of SmartFart and between 15 and 18 hours ahead of the Americans/Canadians. You can deduct an hour when they all go onto daylight saving. As we discovered in one of the tournament games, it means someone in one of the time zones playing at 2 or 3 am.

        Yes, I'd rather be pestering my wife.

        I don't think you'd like to play with us. We're very clannish. We also have lots of weird customs - like you're not allowed to attack Hydey or finbar, because Hydey is "new" and finbar doesn't like war. Also Deity has a spotless reputation but he starts all the wars. Go figure. But you're not allowed to do anything to besmirch his "spotless" rep on king chat, etc. etc.

        You can do anything you like to makeo, but he's not playing at the moment and so forth.

          We know you can do anything to Makeo... and Makeo will usually do the same to you. He used to play with us

            Every other Power graph that has been posted here has been so serious, I guess I was expecting another similar type. I actually blew a little Dr. Pepper through my nose.

              RAH, its not the first time he's done it. Go and have a look on the "another happy evening" threads (part I, I think).

              I cacked myself too.

                    We all have our "Civ thing"....

                    Mine is to be a peaceful builder of great DEITIAN nations; maintaining an impeccable, some say spotless, reputation. War is so... ugly... really.

                        If you want to make it 4am or 5am you might have a deal. That would fit in nicely with our usual evening slot. Any earlier than that and we're having dinner and mixing with our spouses/partners before we disappear off into the world of Civ. Actually, weekends have proved to be the most successful times for our time zones to mingle.

                            Thanks Deity, I had never seen that one.

                            Excuse me, I have to wipe a little more Dr. Pepper off my keyboard before it gets too sticky.

                              Now you know why we call Deity the Jackson Pollock of the South Seas. The only real difference being that Jackson Pollock had an excuse. He was shickered out of his brain most of the time.
