Current Member List added to the second post of this thread.

I wish I could edit in the coat of arms...

[Harovan]

Why, you can, or I would do it. What do you want?

[notyoueither]

I would like the coat of arms to be in the first post. I cannot put it there. I should have posted it first, then the text.

Maybe I can ask Mark for a favour.

testing:


EDIT: hmm, that didn't work.
I thought that using the IMG tags on the attachment postID might work. Obviously not.

[notyoueither]

I will fix this. Do not worry. It will be done.

Conqueror has knocked. Welcome.

Thanks. Better later than never, huh

I was very busy for last 2 weeks and didnt have much time to read the forum, (other then to check my PBEM games now and then), but after this weeks friday things are looking better and i will have more free time.

Damn didnt even have the chanse of voting in the civ poll, but thats democracy, if you miss the election day, then theres nothing to do. If you cant hack in and rig the elections

Anyway nice to be here and looking forward to The Game.

Just out of curiosity, what would have been your choices in the poll?

Hm, lets see, the Americans would have been my 1st choise because of they are both Expansionist and Industrious, even tho the game is very likely to be over before their UU comes around, but hey, theres always leaders to pop and wonders to build with them to trigger GA (i'm overconfident hehe)

Expansionist civs = very likely to have rather nice tech lead on the non-exp ones. Humans do not trade good techs away so easy as the AI.

Industrious = i prefer them because of they can build the supply lines for early war so much faster and with less amount of workers. Plus ofcourse you'll build/grow faster in the beginning than others because you'll have those improvements in half time.

Iroquois would have been my 2nd choise, because they too have the expansionist trait, from my PTW multiplaying experience so far, the expansionist civs have always been on the upper hand early on.
And the MW is ok, even tho not the best UU, but a handy tool for early warmongering.

3rd would propably have been the Aztecs. theyre almost like expansionist because of jaguars.

the Zulu would also have been very good option, 1/2/2 Impi and expansionist makes them a worthy opponent. But that choise wasnt in the poll at all, so i wont give them points.

What are we to do about ManicStarSeed? He's a valuable player...

unfortunately if we let him in then that shall also cripple our PR even more so than it already has been.

Looks like there are some battles we can't win, mostly because if we did win then that would just fuel an even greater fire to be sent against us....

[FrustratedPoet]

We can't let anyone else in now.
After turning away people because we say we're temporarily full to take anyone else would be a PR nightmare.

[alva]

indeed, that's a big nono.

At the moment we can use the excuse, that there are other teams with less members. That we would like to see the teams level out, before we start on taking new members.

[notyoueither]

A. I think we should be selective in accepting new members from here on out. As discussed before, we will need them from time to time, and we still have the last spot to fill since TPR went to the RP team.

B. I do not think we should hide this fact.

C. The situation with flash came about because I did not feel I had the ground to stand on to say anything other than what I said when I replied to his PM. Yes he sent me a PM just after he posted. 'OK, let me in now.' (paraphrased). My reply to him was intended to get him to move on and not bother us. Which he did for the most part.

[FrustratedPoet]

I understand that there were very valid reasons for not letting Flash join the team. And I further respect that NYE wants to have the final say on who joins and who doesn't. That's cool, we made him Prez because we trust his judgement.

Maybe I should stop reading the main DemoGame forum.... I thought the Trash Talking we had at the start was very amusing and light-hearted on all sides. It was also great fun.
However, things have turned nasty recently and if I see one more little **** make some snide comment about us (which I, irrationally, take personally) I might say something stupid. Best to back off and ignore it all, I think.


This is why I'm not in the Diplo school.
