Who Has the Game Save? Part III

[Zayxus]

DeepO, thank you,
as I wrote yesterday, the turn will be later, hope tomorrow in 20 hours. Now it is 23:00 and I need sleep for the job next day.

[Master Zen]

wow, I had major computer problems these past 3 days (accidentally formatted my hard drive - DON'T LAUGH ) then BIOS/memory problems and I couldn't install XP, then I remember a friend of mine had my C3C CD and I only got it until today...

As you can see, I'm kinda glad this turn went slow

[Zayxus]

Hello Master Zen,

Nice to get news from you!

Quite amusing are the news

Finally save 710AD was sent to GOW

"/me is tired this evening"

[Zayxus]

In the north hemisphere, just for fun...

(Is anyone in the south hemisphere or even at the equatorial area ?)

The winter is gone ?

Is it spring?

It is springtime !

[Master Zen]

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t'rough.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
'Cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.


- Bob Marley "Waiting In Vain"


I don't know why I just quoted that... but since winter is over...

Would GoW consider authorizing one more of their members to play the save, when Master Zen becomes busy with his thesis? Sure he is not the only one capable of doing so...

[Master Zen]

I actually sent the save away about an hour and a half ago, but poly keeps on crashing me when I try and post in the other thread (or rather, my ISP keeps crashing). Sorry bout that.

[DeepO]

I'm sorry, I won't be able to make the 24h limit again. Too damn busy... I will play the save later today, but will probably go over the period by about an hour or 6. My apologies

Save to ND

DeepO

24 hours later...

Sorry, but I did not get a save 770AD yet.

I did send a mail and PM about it to DeepO about 12 hours ago.

Sorry for the delay, but I can not do the turn.

[DeepO]

Zayxus, this was corrected, right? I was away this night, and didn't see your message before 4 pm (couldn't log onto poly any sooner then now...). I did attach the save to the reply to you.

My sent folder shows the mail, though, with save attached. I do not know why you didn't receive it...

DeepO

[Zayxus]

I don't know either, I just couldn't find it in my mail box on 03.04.2004; but now I got it, thank you.

[Zayxus]

I've got the save 790AD, thank you.

[Master Zen]

My memory went bad and my WinXP went kaput. I am running on WinME currently and am in the process of reinstalling my programs (including Civ).

I'll play the save in the afternoon, sorry for the delay

[DeepO]

My apologies for the delay, I didn't find any time to spent on my pc this weekend. The save will be played when I get home after work.

DeepO,

I understand you may be lacking time to play a turn from time to time, but is GS really down to the very last player? This is not the first occasion of GS holding the save for more than 24hrs... I would not dare to say a word if there was a war raging on - then, 24hrs is too short a time to discuss and agree on a response to the ever-changing ingame situation. But we are now in peaceful times, where most can be planned and the rest may be easily adjusted on-the-fly by a competent turn player...

Would GS consider appointing a backup player authorized to play your turns if you are unable to?

Thanks,
vondrack
