[SmartFart]

I'll also be available.

[rah]

I'm avail anytime now.

[War4ever]

me too

[markusf]

Last night was horrible. It took me 10 seconds to bribe a unit, i couldn't see any other civ moving. And when barbs attacked it i couldn't see them and it wouldn't show i lost units, they'd just be gone. The only time it went normal speed was a few turns before DD took over. but then it booted me..

[rah]

Yes, it seemed you were worse than normal (turn length)

Where are barono and Sf, we're waiting.

not really. I couldn't even send ICQ messages.


RAH, i only had 3 units to move per turn until the shortly before i droped

[rah]

Yes, your lag must have been horrible. I've never seen you so bad before in terms of lag.
Congrats, Good timing on taking that city, a few turns later and vet pikeman would have made the difference. (but you knew that )

Once you dropped, i took it back

Gotta work on your connection.

So normally you have a good connection but when it plays up the Internet is NOT variable???? Come on my boy!

Now you might believe me when my units just freeze for minutes and you say it's my slow play... oh dear

[rah]

Exception vs the Norm

lol i can't believe you took that city back.. SF was toast to, on the turn i got kicked i had 5 crusaders bearing down on his capitol from the ocean. (he only had warrors to defend with and i was 3 squares away with my cities.) But moving against you would have been pretty hopeless that game until cannons, just to many of your core cities built on hill tops.

After i droped i downloaded some movies at 200kb/sec So i know it was just the connection between us.

[rdegeorge]

i am usually around in the early morning eastern standard time...is there a game that would cater to that time????

[rah]

We're mostly in the evenings (US time)

Check the European group, that time may work for them.
