I don't leave. I said, if they want to restart, restart without me. There a difference between that and "I leave". Meaning, if they don't restart, I stay in the game.Originally posted by conmcb25

yeah SR is probably the fastest player I know, you be wise to keep him in.Originally posted by Sir Ralph
Ask anyone in the games I play, if I am a slow player. You hardly will find anyone who'd say this, at least being serious.
Anyway I'm dispointed to have missed this whole tourney thing, if anyone drops out I'd be more than willing to take their place.Are we having fun yet?Comment

SirOsis, it looks like you are in Game #6, but Game #6 is still one person short. So I guess when a fourth player is located, your game should launch.Originally posted by SirOsis

As a matter of fact, if OPD is still interested, he could join Game #6 and then you'll have a full game.

What is the password for?Comment

You PM or Email Octavian X with the password you want to use (mention the game you're in). Then when he sets up the game, he enters everyones password for their turn. The then skips everyones turn (to make sure all starting locations are basically fair since he's the one whose is making the maps). Finally, Octavian will then send the initial game save to the first person in the group - and you're off!Originally posted by SirOsis

O.k., first we vote to restart, so that Sir Ralph will be happy with the turn order, no big deal really, as the game has just started and it's no real problem to accomidate him. So, now, I have another turn that I can (and will) play and send on, but at this point, should I?Originally posted by Sir Ralph
I don't leave. I said, if they want to restart, restart without me. There a difference between that and "I leave". Meaning, if they don't restart, I stay in the game.
The thing that is "not fun" to me, is not knowing if we now need to get someone else to play Sir Ralph's part or not. Because, Now I'm really uncertain as to if he'll 'stay the course' or not. I was wanting to see now things went for the first few days, and to me, they have gone very quickly, despite the e-mail problem at the very first. I had received 4 saves in a 36 hour period and sent off 3 (not counting the first with the e-mail Issue) saves in 24 hours and could have sent off another if I wasn't working on this post.
Granted, we want to try to get these games going and over with as fast as we can. But not knowing if someone is going to leave because of some order of play issue, that MIGHT not have any effect on how fast this game will go (2 days from now or 6 months from now, as NYE was saying OR 2 years) because it MIGHT actually be better the way that it currently is. You don't know until you try. With the strange scheaduals that both Paddy and I are both on, it MIGHT actually be slower going the correct way. So, I didn;t vote against you, I voted to keep going and see how it goes for 5 turns or so. And up to this point, it's been going much faster than I even had reason to expect. Great!!
But then Sir Ralph grouses about it a little bit more and I finally agree to have this game restart, because I want to see it finish (and hopefully win it ). And now you want to leave because we are finally accomidating you. My post was, for one thing, after I had just gotten home and happy that I had played my 3rd turn in under 27 hours and was looking forward to another 1 to 2 turns in the same time frame, just before going to bed after working 12 hours (at 8AM, mind you). Then I had read Sir Ralph's post and I then reluctantly agreed to restart, even though, in all appearances, it will slow things down and not speed them up (do the math based an actuals and not theorticals).
Now, I'm uncertain as to if we will even have him playing at all. Can I say for certain that he won't get 'tired' of this game, because of something or other that he might not like? Maybe not now, but 6 months down the road? And I want to be as serious as possible when it comes to this (and the following games) and I don't want to deal with this daily uncertanty.
So, to that effect, I would rather that Sir Ralph find another game and lets replace him with someone else. I know that OPD wants in, and we can just have Sir Ralph (or the Donut Preist) give him his password and he (and us) can continue to play.
I will play my turn and send it to both OPD and Sir Ralph. If Sir Ralph wants to play, then I'm all ready to play. And, If he doesn't like it, then we can continue with OPD.
Sir Ralph, the ball is in your court.

Oh brother. That was really uncalled for E_T. SR does not quit. He has said he will not quit. You can take the fact that he would not quit something like this once started to the bank, more so than any other person I know on Poly.
Is he prickly? Yes. Is he a bit of a curmudgeon, like me? Yes. Is he unsatisfied with the state of C3C as it stands? Yes. Actually, I think you can chalk up most of his comments to that last item.
Will he quit? No.
Let's leave this alone. Your game can make its way and best of luck to all of you. There is very little need to hold things up while we squabble.(\__/)
