The Dummy Guide to Trade.

your on way to much crack..

The link works fine, i know its a game you want to forget, after all we spent close to 4 months trying to set up the game and you lost horribly.


As for your great 1x games? ahahah, Host gets a great start with lots of tribes, i am banned from building caravans as this is the only way you'll play. Of course you get to build caravans to build wonders Ya real test of skill there, and of couse i would take such a game seriously LOLOL

Face it you can't play anywhere near my level. Remember the gameleague days? I was ranked first, because i won 7 or 8 5-7 player games in a row. You couldn't get anywhere close to me, so you created new accounts to get people to play you, and you still couldn't get close to me. When that didn't work you tried to have the scoring system changed!, That didn't work so you retired.

Face it you can't beat anyone, unless the other player has a ton of restrictions played on them. Hell even raz beat you, i think your the first player hes even beaten.

Probably - when Raz plays with us we usually get a message at around 2000bc "Raz civilisation destroyed by barbs."

"The link works fine, i know its a game you want to forget, after all we spent close to 4 months trying to set up the game and you lost horribly."

Oh my god, you are full of ****. Has anyone here ever known me to work on setting up a game for weeks let alone months? Has anyone ever seen me post before about setting up games and times? Do I really need to say more?

"As for your great 1x games? ahahah, Host gets a great start with lots of tribes, i am banned from building caravans as this is the only way you'll play."

How does host have anything to do with it? And you hosted the third game you stupid ****! And let me get this straight...you're telling me I banned you from building caravans but I was allowed to? And you went along with it? How ****ing stupid do you think everyone is? Nobody is going to believe that. Your story changes with every post.

"You couldn't get anywhere close to me, so you created new accounts to get people to play you, and you still couldn't get close to me."

Couldn't get close to you? Bull****! You were playing 5 player games with complete newbies for PG wins. You see on gameleague the formula didn't take into account how low someone was rated when it reached a certain amount of players...whereas in duels you could actually lose points even if you won if the guy wasn't rated high enough. All you did was take advanteage of a loop hole in the programming. YOU THE MAN!!!

When we play, and we will, I am going to make a nice little file called "Markusf is my *****" and I'm going to put tons of saves and chatlogs in there so you can never ever say another word again.

Your terms where you would only play if i didn't build caravans.
Just look above i posted the save.. 600 AD and i don't have a single caravan built or trade route nor is there one in production, yet you have cara's parked outside your cap and trade routes..

Anyone who knows how i play knows that i build caravans asap.
I even complained in that thread you posted that i was banned from building caravans but you wheren't.. Your pathetic you will only play if the other player is seriously handycapped and you then claim it as your greatest victory when you barely win.

you're telling me I banned you from building caravans but I was allowed to? And you went along with it?

I only went along with it, because they where just fun game. The proof is in the saves, in the threads, and icq chat history

[Eyes_Of_Night]

You're so full of ****!! Why would I ban you from building caravans? I have never ever played a game where I banned someone from doing something and then went ahead and did it myself. Our game tonight proves just about everything.

Markus starts off with a great start. Tons of units from huts, tons of cities from huts, game isn't even close for a while. Then I get republic before him because he supposedly got alot of techs from huts, I'll be able to prove that or not once the game is over. But it doesn't really matter because the turn after I get republic markus lands on my capital and takes it over and takes republic. And this is the funnies thing of all...NO CAPITAL AND I'M STILL FIRST IN GNP AND MFG!!! LOL I'm kind of happy he got that great start and took my capital and stuff, it's kind of made the game at least somewhat challenging. He's got lighthouse and suntzu because I had no production in my cities while my capital was gone, but I have HG and mikes. I've kind of nullified the effects of suntzu since I have barracks in just about every city and I'm about 4 techs away from magnetism which means no more lighthouse either. I guess the only thing markus has going for him this game is Suntzu. Especially considering the fact I have TWICE the cities he does!! LOL I really hope this is a learning experience markus. You have absolutely no excuse this time. I'm as good on 1x1x med map as I am on 2x2x small map. And this game proves that you are not even close to me.

[markusf]

How quickly you forget our first game today where i razed your civ to the ground. I won the first game to hut luck, and you stand a good chance of winning the second game to hut luck.


This save just shows how fantasic your start was compared to mine in the second game.

[Alexander's Horse]

Yes but what about Raz?

[finbar]

Quite right. Frankly, I think all this bluster is just to avoid the fact that Raz has proved himself the best player in the world.

[Eyes_Of_Night]

I can't look at the save since the agme isn't over yet, but the powergraph shows it all. You had a huge lead at one point and you lost it because you stopped expanding and because you built your nomads on mountains and hills. LOL Is this because you've "only played 4 or 5 duels" and don't know what you're doing?

[Eyes_Of_Night]

And one more thing. The first "game" markus refers to was played on archipilageo because that's all markus would play. My capital was in an alcove and there was no where to biuld a city at. It would have taken me 12 turns to get to a spot to build my first city. As it was I biult my first city 1 square away from my capital on a forest by a whale. I got one advanced tribe and a few useless techs and to the south of that advanced tribe was hills. So after the second settler from my advanced tribe was built it would have to go about 7-9 squares to find something decent to build on. Then put on top of it where markus started and all the advanced tribes he got and the archers/horsemen/chariots he kept getting and you'd be able to understand why this game lasted till about 2600BC. I guess the only way for markus to win is by using the map settings to suit his strategy, why else would anyone play archipilageo?

Lol, i built on the hill near your capitol because you had 2 units in the area and i would have killed it.. Then i used that city and 150 gold to rush buy 4 or 5 horses. The hut city was the same thing. You where all around and i didn't want to lose it, but the second settlar could have been put in a better spot.

[Eyes_Of_Night]

Oh my god. You used money to rush build horsemen instead of settlers? And I would have built that city on a grassland square. You do what you want though.

can't rush buy settlars if you don't have food.

You would have destroyed that city had i built it anywhere else.. your units where all around me at that time, if i remember right you lost 6 or 7 horses in the turns after i built it.

[Eyes_Of_Night]

Actually it was about 4 horsemen and those were all being built out of my surrounding cities to keep my capital from falling. That's another thing. You had me on the ropes in the early turns of the game and somehow I managed to come back. You make silly mistakes.
