Save Game Thread II: On the Eve of Destruction ...

[Moonbars]

No it was not snoopy369 - you know this. You should have had 7 of your last turns skipped. You took almost 3 days there.

[Krill]

Snoopy. The rules say that each team has 24 hours to play the save, war or no war.

If the majority of teams wish to have the amount of time each team - even those not actively engaged in war - recieves, then I will not be bothered in the slightest if that time limit is not breached

But the time limit has been breached. And we have penalties for those that brake the rules.

So next time the save goes unplayed for 24 hours, skip that teams turn, with the only exceptions being illness.

If people keep on braking the time limit, I am just not going to bother playing this game. I have plenty of other things I can do with my time right now.

DR will be holding the save until such time as a Mod makes a decision on my call for Euphorica to be removed from the game for cheating over turn times.

This latest, and likely the earlier, instances had NOTHING to do with Euphorica not having time to play, they were rather plotting and scheming. Fine if you do it within 24 hours, essentially cheating if you do it over 60 hours.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

So yet more delays while we all wait for you to complete your crusade !

[Moonbars]

Indeed.

Why not, Euphorica can take 3 days when they have things to discuss, I can take as long as I like to send the save that I have just this minute finished playing, whilst I contact the Admins to get a decision on:

a) Skipping EUphorica's last turn
b) Removing their civ from the game

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Why should you take 3 days thats absolute hypocrisy and you know it !

That makes you as bad period

And do you have a majority of the players of this game that back your rather OTT course of action ?

[Moonbars]

Chris, you are not reading my post. It didn't say we'd take 3 days, I said that the save would be held until a mod made a decision - it might be more than 3 days.

What I am saying is why should Euphorica be allowed to break the rules again and again, when it suits them? We should take a pause here and take stock.

I am holding the save (please note we are still very much UNDER 24 hours so far, have had the save for 4 hours.) for concerns over the conduct of another team - not to cheat the deadline as Euphorica did. I find it interesting the Horde picks now to comment - no comment from you to my earlier calls to have Euphorica skipped, despite lots of posts from Paddy on previous occasions when Euphorica was late. No wonder, it was your team they were holding the save for whilst they plotted. So do not speak of hypocracy Chris, for it is you who is being that, although you may not have all the facts, so it is hard to tell what your motives for posting here are.

You comments are not really helping, all you have done is chimed in and made raised the heat a little. Post constructivly and calmly, or dont post.

Moonbars, to skip their last turn now certainly is an most strange option to now be stating. I am not sure you have the right to ask such now that two teams has played already.

As to holding the save, what reasons are you giving? are you sick? have you too much work on for 72 hours suddenly?

Also is it that no one on your team will be playing civ through this time?

Moonbars, you have the save, lets play on

edit: Moonbars, read through this thread, I often call for the turn to be moved on. So you chill, and play the save.

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Yak yak yak moonbars is that all you can do ?

just get on and play the save within your 24 hours OK !!!


Oh yeah BTW A reason Ive said little recently is I see speaking to some of you a complete waste of time

You think DR's self interest calls for this. I say your self interest calls for it not to happen. You have been very vocal on the turn-skip issue, until, suddenly, Euphorica are talknig to your team - you are a party to their delay.

Euphorica have been cheating, by saying they cannot play the save whilst they actually are just plotting, on this latest instance with your team.

We've only had the save 4 hours, and it has been played and is ready to be sent - but we will be holding the save until this is discussed and a proper set of rules to be followed from now on is decided upon, and any possible measure taken to punich Euphorica for their cheating has been put in place.

More Role playing, or you just being childish now?

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Yet more hot wind how boring

[Paddy]

have you read the time limit thread that was agreed on at the beginning of the game?

[ChrisiusMaximus]

Id say you would be an expert at the game twister Moonbars because your an expert at twisting the words of the people.

This BS that you state about the Horde somehow cheating, well if you can prove this then fine, but I will enjoy watching you embarass yourself trying !

Yes - but it seems to be OK to ignore this when it suits a team.

I'll be holding this save until all parties agree to obey the agreed upon rules.
