  • My apologizes for my absense.

    First of all I would like to apologize for all for my recent absence. I have had some real life issues with work (Its only getting worse) and also my wife had to have an operation last week. Nothing serious but I had to play Mr Mom for a few days and of course take three days off of work which only compounds the work problem noted above.

    I am now faced with two weekends away from home for my "other" job which is just compounding my ability to try and catch up.

    And quite frankly since the holidays it seems like PBEM's have become more of a job vice something fun to do.

    So feel free to substitute for any and all of my PBEM's.

    I have a password I use almost universally for all my PBEM's and if someone wants to sub have them send me a PM. I *think* there is only one or two out of the whole batch that may have a different password in a game where I substituted for someone else.

    And again my apologizes, I hope to be back to contribute to this community again sometime in the future but my input in the next couple of months will be minimal at best.

    Keep CIVing in my absence

      in the end this is just a game we're playing...
      all the best in things that really matter.
      don't worry about things you have no influence on...

        Sounds like everything got out of hand because you didn't have enough rules.

          Hospital time has a way of really messing up game time, never mind life in general.

          I was worried for you when I saw that you and your son could not play. I figured something terrible happened.

          Good to hear that it is "nothing serious".

          Take care

              One thing that never changes though.

              It is spelled -apologies.

              You have used the third person verb tense - as in "con apologizes to his mates."

              Man - I'm going to miss you around here.

                    Looks like we all accept your apologizes. Sheesh, can't even spell apologises correctly, let alone get the tense right
                    So if you meet me have some courtesy, have some sympathy and some taste
                    Use all your well-learned politesse, or I'll lay your soul to waste

                        Ok - enough sweet stuff and best wishes. We have some games to get moving.

                        One that con needs a replacement for is the C3C classics games. He was playing the Sumerians - renamed the Poles I think.

                          he was just playing with me really his real interests are elsewhere.

                          I have begun to lurk again but I dont see any real comeback to PBEM anytime in the future.

                          Work still sucks, and after almost 20 years of outstanding performance appraisals I have been put on a performance imporvement plan which is basically you need to do all this stuff NOW or else we are going to fire you kind of thing. I haven't worked just my forty hour week in months..........

                          So Im gonna lurk and occasionally give my brother crap but other than that Im still not really back
