  • Turn 267: 1380AD

    Well. This next turn should be our last. Our 2 Settlers are sunk, and GoWND will be moving into position to hit our final cities on their next turn.

    How do we want to wrap things up, publicly speaking?

    I'd say wrap it up very quietly, acknowledge their win, etc etc, then just move on. Don't give them any satisfaction of a whine fest. OTOH, we could let loose.

    Luckiliy for you (me I haven't been active) the end has been apparent for quite a while, unlike for Lego, which was incredibly swift and the game was still in doubt for all.

    Good job Aeson, and the other turn players. It was a wild ride these past several years. Amazing how long we lasted from that mediocre start.

      Acknowledge the win. Congratulate all on an intense game, well-played, with some incredible sequences.

      Internally, btw, kudos to all of GS. :b

        Yup, just a nice tip off the hat and no recriminations and protestations. The team did a great job, no need to toss mud on ourselves at this point.

            For some reason GoWND didn't move into position to be able to take all our cities this next turn. They must be scared of our 2 MI and 2 Riflemen...

            Disbanded all but EotS. No reason to play another turn when we so clearly shouldn't have been able to, and have nothing to do anyways.

              Bah... we knew it could happen, but still going out without a half decent fight is not fun. I'd acknowledge the win, end the game, and start writing on AARs if we want to.

                  Well, Aeson, you are the last Poobah.

                  I will be happy to follow you out any which way you wish to go.

                    Dang, this actually hurts...

                        Be at ease, friend.

                        We struggled amid dark times and we prevailed when odds were against us. We built and we fought. We came from our desert and mountain homes on our island and we drank the drink of being a world power.

                        Now it will be said that we are vanquished. Never, I say. We fought. We won. This time we lost, but our spirit never for a moment was dampened. We were beaten on the field, but let it not be said that we were defeated where we live. Never forget and always remember...

                        the Storm will gather again!

                          /me bows to notyoueither.

                          You started it, and, for me at least, you just provided the finish. Well said, sir.

                            I agree. Oh, and in case a GS team is built again for the next game, you know my address. I had loads of fun in here!

                              A huge kudos to everyone, this had been a great fun, and truly a privilege to be in this team. Despite the fact that I havn't been around throughout a major part of this game, I've been an avid lurker, and never stopped caring for this team.

                              I love you guys!


                              And as our spiritual leader had said, the time for the storm to gather again shall come (CIV 4 is just around the bend).
