Beta, I think you need to exclude Paddy's figures from the Census. Statistically, they will completely screw up the averages

Wasn't Hell's Basement the one we dropped in order to start up Monty-Zuma instead? I think the one you were conscripted for was AP/E QQ, which wasn't on your list. One wonders how many other games Paddy has lost track of...

Im about to start 2 further games or at least Ive signed up for them and Im the mad Pom who talked Paddy into a couple of other games over at CGN, not listed here

[conmcb25]

2004 PBEM Forum Census

2-4player games

- "AU601": 2 player/6 AI stock rules game, playing as Greece (vs. MotownDennis as the Greeks)

- "The Grapes of Rhoth": 4 player/4 AI Rise of Rome scenario, playing as Rome (hasn't started yet)

-'Iron Civer AA Coliseaum'; sort of moving along another Arnelositis casualty.


5-8 player games

- "Mesopotamia": 7 player Mesopotamia scenario, playing as the Babs (took over for fephi)

- "The Grand Passage": 5 player/3 AI Age of Discovery scenario, playing as Spain (took over for Sir Osis a few turns ago) (moves at almost a turn a day )

- "IDG Green Team": 5 player stock rules game, playing as the Iroquois (Playing in spurts, this one has been affected by Arnelositis )

-'Balderdash, the Revenge of the Pathetic Clowns.' The game is a restart of a failed game. But the game doesn't matter just an excuse to have a trash talking thread.

-'Double Blind PBEM', some kind of a weird PBEM where Im playing the Dutch. We had this incredibly goofy way to pick our Civ's, I still dont understand, and now we are trying to come up with all kinds of rules including severly limiting diplomacy. Beta talked me into it. That figures

-'The Middle Ages PBEM' where I took over the Danes for Sir Osis, seems to be moving slow right now.

-'Conquests Only" PBEM here I took over for Tweedledum as the Byzantines.

How many have finished

- Not a single one. But three of my current ones (my favorites, see below) all have a good chance of finishing.

Favorites

- The Grand Passage
- Mesopotamia
- AU601

The Grapes of Rhoth may replace one of these as a favorite. Probably AU601, not because I dont like it but because I made a few dumb mistakes and its beginning to bite me in the but.[/QUOTE]

The limited diplomacy was in from the beginning. It's not our fault if you don't read the first post with the game specifics.

I know and thats what I get for listening to Beta

Hey con, you're supposed to put your own information into the "How many have you finished" and "favorites" columns, not recycle mine.

[sabrewolf]

woah! some of you guys are really extreme! (43 for paddy, 25 for beta, 20 for aqua)!

i peaked at 15 games and was starting to think about finding replacement in some. then came the summer lethargy with several games stalling which even made it possible to start 4 new intense games (4 times 1vs1 games against andydog... including au601. 2 finished, 1 soon)

at least i'm currently "2nd-best" at completed games
