        I find my self very confused wondering why Provost Harrison is posting in my CivIII PBEM threads...

        (You can't get the Russians- you nominated them! ) I'm still not sure if discarding duplicate picks just until the next round is the best way to go, but I wanted to be sure we didn't run out of tribes...

We will then play out the first 20 turns of these 10^5 games and proceed to vote for each of them with wieghted preferences. The top 10 games will be played until 2000 BC, at which point Sid Meier will be called upon to pick his favorite among the lot. The final save will then be bronzed and sent to the Smithsonian Institute to be admired by generations to come...
              I figured it was something like this. Great post.

              So, Rommel, you have a PhD in Math?

                        • Damn - I should have picked the Germans as number 1. Oh well - I am a big fan of the Mahatma and his raging elephants. Have you ever seen what they do when they trample through Dutch farmland? Both the spearmen and the tulips get seriously squished.

                            Good one!

                            Ok - now what do we have to do? Solve a skill testing mathematical question, spell "pangaea" correctly, and mail off our $5 with three box tops from Sugar Crisps?



                            On a more serious note - regarding the play order - I am gmt-5 (edt) and generally play from 5 pm to 11 pm my time, which is 22:00 to 04:00 gmt.

                            • I know that snoopy generally plays right after me - and con a bit later - so

                              Beta - snoopy - con

                              - would be the correct order for us three.
