this place went quiet quick...

[GodKing]

Working 70+ hours a week trying to keep construction going befor winter conditions hit.

Plus grad school classes

Plus teaching ceramics at the community collage, along with running the kilns on the weekends

Plus hockey season started up, and I am a Red Wings Nut.

At least the girlfriend dumped me so I can get some sleap every now and then..............

[Donegeal]

I am guilty of devoting much more time to the set up of the PTW DG and have not been posting here as much. Sorry, but, Like Ada said, a forum directory is alot more work than I originally thought it would be. Its not like I was vitial to this game anyways. I hold no position of power and all I do is stick my nose in other ministers business....

I will continue here though... my role of RA has changed to a primarily RP thing...

[Randolph]

Damned anti-Civ girlfriends, mine starts up every time I turn the game on. I think she really does hate the game… at least she’s away a few nights a week
I guess world conquest is a male thing.

Ah, the joys of an understanding wife, and the new hotseat mode that allows us to compete...

[Donegeal]

NO WAY!!!

Your wife is a civer? You lucky bastard!

[UnOrthOdOx]

Yep, in fact, if it sometimes seems I have multiple personalities, it is because she occasionally will log in as me here...can't convince here to get her own account, though.

She don't like to talk all that much, though.

absentee-ism

my interest has waned abit due to PTW and the inter-Poly game setup. This game has reached a point where, without a huge blunder on our part, its a lock to win it. We started in a seemingly impossible location on emperor level and have managed to become an uncontested superpower by the middle ages.... I don't know why, but the prospect of actually losing holds more appeal for me than a sure win.

Anyway, crushing the AI under our boot just isn't the same when the prospect of doing it to humans is so close

[Jon Shafer]

Ortho, you've certainly hit on a facet of life that 99% of the people here never will, I congratulate you.

Large beaurocracies tend to turn me off to things. That's partially the reason I left in the first place. However, the prospect of setting a new one up for the PTW Demo Game is too enticing (as is the chance to crush all of the most famous members of Apolytonia).

[Sheik]

I have been here but have found little to post about. The game at this point is in calmer times. I see things picking up when we hit the middle of the Industrial era. I am still having a blast and wouldn't even consider leaving.

I managed to get my girlfriend in college to start playing civ... she actually was playing it a good bit until she got hooked on The Sims... she played little other than the Sims since that oh well

I also knew at least two other girls in my dorm at school that were avid civ2 players. One of them now works in national security here in the DC area.

So they exist

Where do you find these people?

I only know one person who plays Civ 3 and one person who plays Civ 2 in real life, and they do so rarely.
