Oh my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AH, they listened to you

[Ecthy]

I absolutely agree to AH. we should all take each other's hands (well, 2 of them ) and make a big peace circle around the world

*insert puking smiley here*

[Ecthy]

oh. and apparently they listened to the spammiest and trolliest civ2 general/community post ever....

that was my first ACS discussion ever

[rah]

Thanks, Jeff
(so much for that tease)

God, When AH see's this, he will be unbearable. (if it's possible for him to be any worse)

Ming, please post saying you have Jeff's password and you were just pulling our legs. Oh Pleeaaaaaase.

We're never going to hear the end of this.

What rah said.

For the love of all that is good and pure Ming, make this thread disappear.

In my distress I forgot to ask, what's a colony?

[Ecthy]

but there ARE cities founded on mountains!!

[Kassiopeia]

Maybe a colony wouldn't have pop and grow but it could extract resources from, maybe three squares? And maybe it could be able to extract from more squares with technology or such.

Check out the soon to be Old Firaxis Civ3 Page for a tutorial on resources/colonies. It'll goes over the basics for you.

You have to read close, rah declared as "fact" that cities could be built on mountains, he came in to dispute it. It's a few posts above Jeff's.

Scary how a post from this thread that had little releavnace to the main thread gets noticed. The moderators must either be:

a) omnipotent
b) machines
c) highly obsessed with the site enough to check it every time a post is made.

If its c, I'd cackle to hear that somebody woke up to read this post. Anyhow, I broke out of the Civ3 infro cycle a while ago, and now, well, if Civ3 comes tomorrow, good for it. If not, well there's tons of other stuff to do anyhow.

Last time I checked, MarkG was the moderator of this forum, and he hasn't posted yet
On the other hand, I think it's great that Jeffrey Morris posted... just more proof they pay attention to what is posted here... no matter what the thread subject

Ming: He might be referring to the "No Mountain-Top Cities" news item that was put up awfully fast...
