2001 Players Tourney, Round 1, Group A: BRAVELAKER (HOST), CARNIDE, CYBERSHY, NAPPY

[Robert]

i admit im having trouble reading the gmt times

that's why I've included EST and PDT times as well:

02:00 GMT (Fri 21:00 EST) (Fri 18:00 PDT)

let's start this night then, it's my last change before I leave for vacation. I'll wake up at 3 am and start playing. I'm really insane

[cavebear]

Actually that should be "EDT" (Eastern Daylight Time), not "EST". 0200 GMT is 2100 EDT is 9 pm EDT. I only mention that because there are a few small areas that stay on Standard Time and that would be 1 hour earlier.

guys im sorry the game didnt start when it was suppose to, my kid spilled a big glass of tea on the keyboard by the time it was done frying circuits i couldnt type a complete word. I am now back in business and ready to do this name your time

[deity]

BUMP!!

What's happening here???

[Nap Bonaparte]

Hey Deity...we all got together to get this game started and the host(Bravelaker) had a problem with his computer so we couldnt play. Then Cybershy went on vacation for a month. We hope to try this again when Cybershy gets back around Aug. 24th. By the time we finish this game Civ 3 will be out.

[cavebear]

In the meantime, I suggest just waiting until Cybershy returns. The delay won't really cause any problems.

[carnide_]

Lets try to get this game going.

[cavebear]

Cybershy

Should be back by now. I expect the game will start or continue now.

[General Maximus]

correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't this the game i was dropped from because of my limited availability?

seems a little ironic...

[cavebear]

Yes, it is a bit ironic, but there is a difference between a very limited availablity while one is here vs a vacation for someone who had better be more available once returned.

The first seemed permanent, while the second was temporary.

[Robert]

I'm back.
Got some tropical desease that prevented me for playing at night, but I guess I can play again.

all tell your possible playtimes.

[carnide_]

Hey. Welcome back.
This week I can play almost anytime.
Lets start!!

[Nap Bonaparte]

Welcome back Cybershy. Unfortunately, while I was available to play in June July and August, my schedule precludes me from starting any new games for a while. Bachelor party in Las Vegas this weekend, getting married 2 weeks after that and then honeymoon in Maui. Hopefully you can find a replacement. I will see all of you back here in Apolyton when Civ3 comes out.

Good luck in the tournament....

[carnide_]

Good luck Nappy.
. . .
Now, about this game. Who is still in?

[cavebear]

Someone please send me the most recent game file. I want to look at all the positions to decide whether the fairest thing is to replace Nappy or remove his Civ and adjust the map for 3 players.

If someone has a recommendation for a replacement, I'm open to the idea.
