    What a service!!
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

        Very cool Markos. Now if I only had PtW!

              Anyone know what size the PBEM files will be?

              I live at the edge of nowhere, too far out for DSL or Cable, and w. too many trees around for wireless.

              Dial-up speed is bad and if the file size is too large...

                no, there very small, even for 56k modems
                (look at save games usualy around 100-200 Kb)

                    That's good.
                    I knew that with the compresion the saved games were pretty small, but wasn't sure what extra stuff would be saved for the PBEM games.

                      You should give a PBEM chat option like we do.

                      (only 1000 posts!? One of our PBEM games has over 600! ).

                          ahh, I finally ordered my PTW copy, which will be arriving here soon... then I'll be able to join in some PBEM games. With my crappy connection at home, that's the most I can get from multiplayer.
                          I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                              I have a general question.
                              How many turns a day / a week are the players of a CIV PBEM game expected to play?
                              I'm not sure how often I'm able to play a PBEM game so I'm afraid of starting one.
