sounds good to me

As i pointed out ealier and frank reieterated bad starts can be overcome with good allainces and tech trading, neither of which was allowed in this game, eve nthough deity did forget that at one stage. Which is the big problem with house rules , their is no umpire.

Deity did not forget he tried to cheat.

[deity]

LOL!

I sent a message to several players about tech trading!

I forgot But no trade was done because I was reminded

Stop stirring me.... or I'll get cranky

[Dank]

Well now that you guys got that out of your system....does that mean that I get to start with you all on Saturday? I wasn't here last time so I couldn't really make any comments concerning the map.

[Epik]

I will be available for a restart tomorrow.

After reading some of the discussion, I am now unsure whether the Tech Trading and Alliances will still be banned. Please clarify this for me.

Thanks.

To OzzyKP: No I did not save the posts from the Monday Night Diplo game. Drake might have... I wonder if Ming could restore it from an archive.

I think the game is full, so no more players can join it.

For me the fact that you join a game means you accept the rules of the game is a true statement. Therefore the above discussion about change the rule after the game is started looks strange. You have to live with the rules... In some games you get a good start, in some a bad. Good luck in either case, the best player will win, in the long run.

[deity]

Continue with the same rules

I vote we continue with the same rules.

In fact I insist!

The whingers* only linked these rules with a bad start but the new map will give us all good starts.. LOL

* Luv ya ozzy
NB Aussies are better looking than Americans!
You had to pick an Aussie to star in Gladiator cos the Americans don't have that good looking ruggedness LOL

[Frank Johnson]

Hey deity, don't be bashin. American, Australian.........both ANGLO.

The only difference between my ancestors and deity's are that mine were relgious pilgrams and business owners, and his were petty theives.

Darn. I hope Drake does, I posted in the community forum and the Mods were rather rude to me. (surprize?) They said that my concern wasn't important, they weren't interested in looking for it, and the thread probably doesn't exist anymore anyways.

So I guess if Drake doesn't have it then that Diplogame is gone forever. Which is weird because the thread really has no good reason for being gone, a thread started 3 minutes after it is here, and a thread started 3 minutes before it is here. But that one thread has just disappeared.

HOTW3 Announcement

It looks like History Of The World 3 is in need of a sub for the Zulu. Kuja has decided to bow out due to connection difficulties (although if it hasn't truly been decided please correct me ASAP so I don't replace you without your consent!). So if you think you are up to the level demanded of you in HOTW3, and if you have a stable connection and can make Wednesday nights at 7 PM, then please post here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...&goto=lastpost

BTW, Kuja's position is the biggest and bestest in the world. He is much larger and powerful than anyone else in the game. So to keep things balanced Markus' need not apply. Kuja is also my ally in the game, so i get a bit of a say I suppose.

General rules: Very important you stay in character. Role-playing is the key element in diplogames and I put a stress on it. Please try to make interesting and captivating posts about game progress and such. Also relate to your fellow gamers as if you were really head of a nation.

It is on a world map, there are Germans, Russians, Arabs (me), Chinese, Indians, and Zulu (Kuja). The Americas and Australia are for colonization. No conquest limits or much else, just play your role. Everything is discussed in detail in the HOTW3 thread. The story thread is linked to in my profile.

Umm, anything else I'm leaving out? I'm hoping for a good replacement, Kuja did a fine job so far, someone needs to fill his shoes.

deity looked out upon this lonely planet ans wondered who of his proteges would be best suited to dominate the land.

It was good land. Fertile plans and rivers. Surely even Captain deitigod, son of Lord deitigodfather, could handle this challenge.

He was appointed.

Oh dear. From Day One he screwed things up!
A capital with some useless squares in its radius.
Lack of thorough exploration before siting cities.
Poor yields from the local hutties... and so on...

But he stayed on a steady course. Made friends with the Greeks and agreed borders after a terrain map exchange.
Made peace with the Borg Collective but no maps were exchanged.
He settled the key cities needed but remained a despot.

When the yellow menace predictably appeared Captain deitigod ewas threatening and unfriendly to say the least but then again, these universal tyrants wee even more so nasty. They left our shores and sought land farther afield. It was believed thay had new forms of Government and with ships were expanding, unless they wee preparing invasion...

At the end of this session the DEITIANS were languishing in last place virtually... Much needs to be done on this planet, a far cry from the previously aborted mission

[OzzyKP]

So who is playing? And what civs are there?

Is that Species as the Borg Collective? Or does Epik use that as well?

Fill us in.
