Shut Up and Play Pbem

[jshelr]

Tired of games depending more on human diplomacy and less on Civ skills?

This is the right place for you.

Rules: Silent pbem. No messages to other players and nothing on the thread to hint any in-game info.

4 players in total wanted. Those who can't play an average of once per day should not join.

No ag civs. No expansionist civs. No seafaring civs. No huts to make luck important.

Standard pangea map should give plenty of room for you to demonstrate growth skills.

If one turn a day is the preferable amount, I would be willing to play (NB, I will be away this weekend and next weekend).

Are you willing to play me (and beat me) again?

[jshelr]

don't recall beating you when you play from your own start.

i do recall you winning the only silent game i've ever been in.

by all means join. Let's get a couple of other suspects and get going.

[Beta]

I'm in.

Ottomans.

And I am away this weekend as well.

Turn a day - or more - would be great.

[Kloreep]

Turn a day is good. I can't always do more, depending on the day, but sometimes I can.

I'll take India if we're doing civ selection right now.

[jshelr]

Done. Thanks guys. Select your civ Krill. Play order is important.

Looks to me like Krill goes last. If I play first and send to Beta, he can send to Kloreep.

Let's post emails please. jshelr TA yahoo TOD com

Is everybody ok with iron civ rules including battle reports?

I'm thinking max friendly world -- warm, old, wet.

Everyone gets to call for one restart. If you are born in the jungle on the second start, you can post a screenshot to me to appeal for fairness

[Beta]

Sounds good.

[jshelr]

In the interest of getting things moving, i will guess at a civ for Krill. He can have a free restart if he wants it.

post your emails. if you get the save, you can post your turn here and use private messaging to alert the next guy until we are running smoothly. I can't post the first turn, due to password selection, but I have Beta's addresss.

[jshelr]

Here are the settings.

[Krill]

Er, I'll go with...

China.

[Krill]

My email is chrisScrewSpamBots TA jackos TOD f2s TOD com, by the way.

Remove the obsenity, of course... edit, uh, wait, civ/restart is fine, atleast i have an excuse... (but it better not be Greece, I hace bad uck with greece...)

Edit: ok, scratch that i will take persia instead. Early GA, here i come...

[Beta]

The turn order has me sending the save to Krill next - not Kloreep. Shall we continue?

Krill - when can you play? This may still work out OK.

[jshelr]

dumb

actually, krill plays like he lives in chicago and i play like i live in Europe, or at least Bermuda. you are probably correct that it will work out fine.

[Beta]

OK - save on its way to Krill.

[Krill]

You may want to restart this game, if it is not 1 turn/day, but otherwise I am happy to play this save (the start is excellent, for me.)
