Game Reconstruction

[Master Zen]

Don't worry, GoW won't whine or moan once we get a recently construced Leo's and Sistine Chapel

(thanks Trip, it was worth the bribe of giving Port Isolation to start a new Lux )

Trip, just dont forget to give Grog a Tank on a one Tile Island suroundet by Mountains so he can't influence the Game but is there to be seen by everybody

u mean 9 tile island

Lux should have a city with tank named grog with mountain surrounding the city.

I think the 3 GLs caused the game to crash.

There are time based elements in the game, such as when an improvement is built affects how much culture it builds each turn. Will that be reconstructed as well?

Has anyone played in a PBEM game that has gotten well into the middle ages?

We still do not know what the problem is. Reconstruction may get us going again but the problem is still there and may bite us again. Is Trip going to reconstruct the game very time it crashes?

[BigFree]

HarryH, we ceratinly hope not. But, if we did nothing we'd be out in the cold where we are now for even longer. Firaxis seems to be really busy at the time, so this action by Trip may be our only hope for quite some time. If the crash is related to the time/era in the game....we shall find out....

We can only hope that we can continue with Trip's reconstruction or we shall have to wait for either Gramphos or Firaxis to see what they can do.

[HarryH]

The engineer in me says we need to find out what is the problem we can best figure out how to deal with it. Even if Firaxis can not get us a fix very quickly it would be nice if they could at least tell us what is happening. I would try to dig into it myself but Vox is a small team and I would hate to leave it. That is why I asked about other PBEM games. It would give us more information to work with, as well as tell us if we had any hope of going farther.

Trip...

Thank you.

I'm not a very good graphics guy, but I'd like to propose something:

I think Trip deserves an acknowledgement, a badge a medal, an honor.

Something on the Apolyton team logo?

I used to be really into Wing Commander... "Heart of the Tiger" meant something to me, for those who remember...

Trip deserves such an accolade.

Among other things, the next city in the ISDG should be 'Tripoli'.

[Master Zen]

Yes, Tripoli would be nice.

Or, Castle Tripula would be more folklorish

[Thrumble]

How about a secret island city in the middle of nowhere on the map, named Triplantis or something. It could be the lost eighth AI civ.

[Jon Shafer]

Nah, no medals or civs or cities named after me.

I've already left my mark on the map, and I challenge the teams to find it some day.

[BigFree]

Really? That's interesting, a new challenge awaits us!

[notyoueither]

You have given up on finding the cause of the crash?

[Shiber]

To the best of my understanding, we've tried to change numerous things, but when none of the ideas that were brought up worked, we just contacted Firaxis, hoping that they could solve the mystery of the broken save.
I still think we could have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids.

[BigFree]

Nice. Go get 'em Scooby!

My guess is that you wrote your name in coast/sea tiles in the middle of the ocean.
