I'm not certain if I can myself, but we could combine it with a chat??

[notyoueither]

Reprint to hit the next page...

OK. Too late to do this for Saturday, I think.

Who can do it for Sunday?

11am-3pm for Meshelic
noon-4pm for nye
3pm-7pm for Randolph
8pm-midnight for Sir Ralph
9pm-1am for Conqueror

So far SR, Mesh and I can do it.

alva, you cannot be available during those hours, but with a chat?... Please explain.

[alva]

No, what I meant was that you guys could hold a chat (well everyone could join),
but I'm not certain if I can join myself for a possible chat

[Conqueror]

proposed time for Sunday is quite OK for me. (turn to Ottomans)

Conqueror, a strange strat to settle away from the river, with all those floodplains nearby...

DeepO

[alva]

In MP, my guess is more people will look for hills to settle. It's good to see how everyone is handling this


(DeepO: netscape should work better now )

[Conqueror]

True, but i'm fixated about building on top of gold resource

[DeepO]

Ah, didn't notice that. But then again, with those floodplains it wouldn't be too hard to mine and use it anyway... both sides have their advantages.

Alva: thanks, it works now.

Please make sure you don't have any links to your homepage, or it will be found with google. If needed, adjust your page to be called "rotzooi.html" or something, as index.html pages are sometimes linked from within the provider (I don't know how telenet does this).

Come to think of this: I'm going to google for any of the other teams, who knows if they left their websites open (Hey, before any complaints arise: this is honorable spy-business, no cheating! I'm a diplomat after all)

I haven't been able to find any additional home pages yet, nor yours Alva, so I guess we're ok for now. However I'll be monitoring them from time to timr to see if none of the teams have security holes we can exploit. If we woud find them, I suggest that we first spider the site, and then sell that information back to the team who has a security hole, it should definately be worth a city, or some techs

I know someone, I think from the L.I. team mentioned he had one. The thread is probably on the first page somewhere, if you wanne go look for it , good luck

re:namechange
I don't think I can change the name, well I didn't check for it anyway, might do that later

And man, you are devious
Is there a way to lock it??

[DeepO]

Alva, I can't imagine anyone too stupid that they will use a web page that has been mentioned on the general forum, that's just too obvious. But then again, if they do, it will be found by google, I've seen numerous links to threads in the general forum already. Of course, google isn't a sure proof way you find everything, as you need to have certain assumptions (like for instance mentioning 'Lux Invicta' somewhere on the page), but we will get far with it.

Renaming: I don't think this is necessarily an option in whatever tool telenet uses to upload your page, but that's not really needed either: if you just upload rotzooi.html, and don't link from within your index.html to it, it will never be found by google. This is used a lot to avoid semi-private pages to be found on the Internet, although not everyone is aware of it. But then again, most people aren't aware of the powers of google either, try searching on your own (real life) name and you can be surprised what you will find...

As to being devious: heh... don't we have to be

DeepO

[alva]

Well, he didn't give the exact addres obviously .

He mentioned it after we came to realise , we couldn't post attachements in the private forums. Hmm, i might go look for it now

I did do that for alva once , the places I have been , well I still deny it off-course , no matter what.

[alva]

I found a post..., some stupid bugger did mention it, what was he's name again,..... alva or something

It is edited out, just in case someone else comes up with the same idea

[DeepO]

At least you didn't made your homepage known to 'poly when you registered

If anyone would know your real name, or know your computer name, it could be dangerous, so I certainly advise changing index.html into something less obvious. And leave an index there with your cats (poep? ) to fool the others
