here in switzerland, we learn english at school but seriOUsly, does it really matter if it's centRE or centER, or colOr or colOUr?

resent... this time with attachment sorry about that... broken unbackuped harddisks make me slightly confused

[jshelr]

I'm 99% sure I'll ask for a restart next turn. Fine by me if you simply save time and restart now

save sent to alexman

i'm a transplanted yank -- have been enjoyably stuck in Canada for years, but only for 3 more days.

I can't remember to put in all the "extra" u's, among numerous other differences.

[alexman]

OK, restart it is.
I'll spend my own restart request, and hope I'm not worse-off next time.

Anyone want to keep their civ?

[Andydog]

I knew it! I get a fairly good start location for once and it's a restart!

I think I'll stick with the Byzantines. There are probably more worse civs out there (for example the friggin Portuguese ) than better ones.

[sabrewolf]

ah, i'm happy someone called a restart my location was... well... dry... at least i had 2 tiles with 2 food.

i'd like to keep the dutch, but only if i can keep it for the rest of the restarts (as i tried to formulate earlier). if not possible, then random...

from the looks of that screenie and my turn, i presume the settings were archipelago, normal, arid, 4 billion years.

[alexman]

By the way, I forgot to mention that the difficulty level was Monarch. I assume that's OK?

It's currently just past the end of my slot time, so I will send the new game to Rommel2D now. Sorry if you wanted your old civ and you didn't get a chance to say so! (But I don't imagine the Japanese and Arabs are worth keeping anyway).

[alexman]

New civs:

alexman: Arabs
Rommel2D: Iroquois
Andydog: Byzantines
sabrewolf: Netherlands
jshelr: Maya

4000 BC to Rommel2D.

[jshelr]

I guess we don't like dry, even if everyone is dry

[Rommel2D]

Wow, Byzantines on Archipelago with the only good starting location... Good call alexman. ;-)

Andy, your new eddress didnt' work. I won't post it here since it isn't passworded yet, I'll try the two old eddresses I have...

[alexman]

I think it's OK to post it here. If we wanted to cheat, there are plenty of ways (after all, everyone gets their first turn without passwords for subsequent players), so we can't be concerned with such things, IMO.

[Rommel2D]

Right. I've had bounces from 2 of Andy's 3 accounts so far...

4000BC:

[SIZE=1] If we wanted to cheat, there are plenty of ways

This is the kind of realistic philosophy that will get you to old age happy, healthy, and wise, IMO.

I posted a first save in another game and it was downloaded 6 times before I could blink.
