      Good sportsmanship

      I have to say that there has been excellent sportsmanship in this game.

      Markus could have taken out my cap very early on with units from huts and apparently Makeo could have done the same with Hydey!
      Also Makeo could have had a good shot at my cap some time later but resisted

      As it turned out Markus and I are allied;
      and Makeo and Hydey are allied - quite ironic, but I think it dispells Markus fear that it's a 3:1 gang up on him!

      I had no luck with huts though and trail very badly in the pg and city stakes. I'm going to have to play a good game from here to not get knocked out of the Tourney!

      Hydey is doing well. I always said he was a good and under rated player. Hold that buck Raz!

      Makeo bolted to a tech lead as I understand it but Markus got the only two Wonders including Leo's by 150BC.

      Those two are way in front with cities and pg.

      We all started quite close really and MP interaction was evident from the outset - good one Cavebear

      I'm not looking forward to next week

          Cut that out Raz, you are trying to upset Deity, you know he has a spotless rep and would never knife an ally in the back , its just not the Aussie way, opps sorry yes it is.

          Did you get those free steak knives yet Deity?

                    Did you stick your head in a blender, nephew?

                      Hydey is sorry

                      On behalf of the OPTUS@HOME network I would like to apologize to Markus, Makeo and Deity.
                      Hydey could not connect to the internet until after 11 o'clock, 1 1/2 hours after start time.
                      Please feel free to disbelieve me and check with Optus@home. I am sure they will confirm that they had problems.

                      Once again I am sorry.

                      I got Cable to avoid such problems but alas I fell I am doomed.

                        Deity asked if I could play on Saturday (aussie time) starting at about 10 am, I will be unavailable on Saturday from 11:30 am to about 2 pm while I take my son to his basketball game. I am happy to start early and ply up till 11:30 or start at 2 and play for the rest of the day.

                        Failing that I can play when ever on our Sunday (as long as the ****ing cale is working)

                        Just let me know.

                            sorry Makeo, that won't really work for me.

                            Stick to normal time Sat night/our Sunday at 9:30am till 1pm

                              2nd Session played....

                              OK, we played our second session in the normal Sat night time slot.

                              Things got much better for me. I'm now 2nd in the pg with only 18 cities; so from a crappy start and bad huts I'm back in the running IF the pg means anything

                              It's an interesting game with no war so far. We have two alliances which were declared BEFORE we knew of Cavebears ruling on NO alliances. So, as CB says, we now need to continue on the basis of alliances. IE:
                              Makeo and Hydey
                              against
                              deity and Markus
                              at the moment.

                              Makeo led with techs, I believe, and appears to have gone for a super growth strat with around 23(?) cities now. His cap is Size 26(?) I think, when all other civs are not over 12's yet in 600+AD. But Makeo's unit count is down... he must be up to something though
                              His ally Hydey has SunTzu and 18 cities.

                              Markus leads the pg with 30+ cities, 70+ units and a good few Wonders, but no one chasing Wonders in this game it seems.

                              A game with Makeo involves a certain amount of war paranoia

                              Hey, everyone post!

                              I must say I much prefer diplo games where politics and manipulating diplomacy plays a greater part.
                              A normal civ game can get a bit technical but civ is still the best game around!

                                A weird thing..

                                Meant to say, a weird thing happened in this game.

                                A couple of my caras jumped 3 or 4 squares without a road!

                                And I've just looked at my save and realised in both instances it was at Latitude 51.

                                Any clues? Markus was host, not me.

                                Never seen this before.
