Hi All...
If this game is not already full..I love to join in.
I am Ok as random for everything
Except barbarians .. I hate those guys !!

Any Civ, but I like the Chinese or Japanese the best.

Sorry just been a bit busy last few days.

Just checking: Current players would be

UnOrthOdOx
Calc II
Hot_Enamel
GhengisFarb

Correct?

Random Civs
4 AI players
Wet Climate,
all else random?

What Difficulty? And I need addresses.

Mine is SirUlias@AOL.com

[Hot_Enamel]

My Address is

hot_enamel@hotmail.com

Any Level is AOK for me...(Except Deity)

Whatever settings you decide on is fine with me.

Happy with Random Civs...if people prefer to choose, I like the Japanese...but random will be fun.

Edit - If you want my suggestion on difficulty...How about Monarch -

Unorthodox, I understand You are caught up in both C3DG and PTW DG, so I won't push you too hard. I am not really in need to rush this game either. I just thought most people dropped out without my awareness... My Email is Jkim199@hotmail.com Email when you guys want to play.

I want to start this this weekend...lets see, I'll go get Ghengis' E-mail (though I am fairly sure he is in my address book at home) then we can start.

Anyone object to Monarch? Too easy? Gives us a nice little AI to utilize... And, Starting Order?


I normally play at Emperor, but usually lose there. (just won my first game on Emperor, and am on the way to a second win)

[Hot_Enamel]

I am happy with any starting order...
I usually also play emporer..and can win 75% of the time...(it all depends on my starting position)

Currently playing Deity..Tiny map (4 civs)
Its just me (Chinese) and the English left..
We have equal territoy, but they are at least 6-7 techs ahead of me. They wont trade, and I am stuck in a monarchy.

I am happy with any settings chosen (random or other)

Heard from Ghengis,

He is still interested but will be out of communication for roughly 3 weeks end of Jan/start of Feb. Personally, I don't see too big a problem with that, with the length of this, it is to be expected that we all will be out of touch for some time. I myself will be out for a few weeks in may sometime, still no finalized details to that trip. So, are there any objecitons? If not, I will begin this tomorrow.

Also, I am planning to DL the patch before starting this, any problems with that?

[Hot_Enamel]

UnOrthOdOx,

This weekend has turned into a busy one for me..RL issues....(Wifes birthday)

Also, my PTW CD has gone astray...(I had a LAN party, and I assume a friend picked it up)

I can still play by downloading a no-cd patch but I can only find it for version 1.04f

So...
Can we either hold off on the patch upgrade until I get my PTW CD back, (or a 1.14f no-cd hack is available).

If everyone else upgrades, then perhaps put me last on the turn schedule...I should be able get my PTW CD back soon.

I am happy to start this weekend...its just that I am stuck on 1.04f for now

Don't have it as a goal to have 1 turn a week. That will kill your games. Seek the higest possible turn-around and take what you can get.

In CTP PBEM, we tries to keep a 24-hour rule. You have to play within 24 hours after you have received the turn.

Here you can find CTP PBEM rules version 2 discussion thread: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...&pagenumber=1.

The second post holds a link where your can download a draft of the rules.

Over here =

No objection to new patch
No objection to difficulty level
No objection to slowness/delays we might encounter

I'm all ready, the PTW Demo went pretty well, I will be out of the loop a bit in mid January but I'll be good the rest of the time.

[Hot_Enamel]

Yep ..

Have found a 1.14f no-cd patch, so I am ready to rock & roll..

Meanwhile, in RL, I will hunt down and kill the "pal" who swiped my PTW CD
