Aussie Group 5: Another happy evening of multiplaying

Yes we all have to set priorities and meet deadlines but I'm more concerned about episode 5 of the deity, finbar, trev game and episode 7 of the deity, finbar, hydey game.

With wit like that, you're a shoe-in to rewrite Episode 13 for me.

I open the saves regularly to study the state of play but feel foolish doing so.

Not a word, anyone. Not a word.

I think what upsets me the most is sitting there for at least half an hour every Friday night with newbie Trev, an astonishingly good find, excellent player, and feeling acutely embarrassed that we got him in a game and now none of the regulars can find the time to finish it.

Of course the other frustration is that I'm now in a position to hurt deity in every saved game and I'm not getting the opportunity to inflict the pain he so richly deserves.

I also worry, knowing his past history, that Hydey won't show up again because he's been attacked in a couple of games. He always pikes it when attacked.

Now the truth comes out! I'm almost tempted to tell Southern Star to jam their series just to help you out!

I know he was away for the two weekends after the dinner. I think that brings things up to last weekend.

AH go and play in a more serious Civ group!

Civving should be serious. One game/time spot, not several running in parallel. A game group should consist of serious reiable players, that plays seroius Civ. And seroius Civ is 1x1x deity and nothing else! Games should be played to end. Players that changes priorities after they have got trouble in the games are not serious, that's it - DON'T play them!

Hydey is winning the deity, finbar, hydey game. What more incentive does he need?

[deity]

Horse, I turned up last night, saw finbars post, spoke to Trev, you weren't online yet so go figure!

Nothing worse than a whinging Horse

And yes finbar, please turn up to allow Horse to inflict damage on me...

I'm not sure how you deduce that but it suits me for you to think that

I agree about Trev but don't try and make out that it's just you two showing up. You, me and Trev have been consistently showing up. (I was in invisible mode last night but talking to Trev) finbar and Hydey have not been showing up lately

Don't try and distort things you miserable little lump of horse tvrd

I suppose it never occurs to you that if other people can see you online they might be encouraged to play.

[deity]

Last night was an exception - I was on Ms deity's puta...

I'm usually visible and in full parrot regalia

How would it have encouraged finbar to play anyway?
He wa working.

Seeing the 3 of us online might have tugged at his civ strings.

point taken

That's why I don't dare turn on ICQ at these times! Satan tends not to get behind me when ordered.

[Alexander's Horse]

You would have had time between deity's turns to knock out an episode at least.

All this praise I am getting, it is almost worth not having played for a few weeks, only almost, as nothing is better than playing a game to the end and winning it
