  • COMMENTS/QUESTIONS FOR YIN (List Coordinator)

    Now that we have several threads running, it is impossible for me to read all of them all of the time. I've noticed, here and there, comments directed to me in various threads. So, to make sure I don't miss anything from the Thread Masters or anybody with a question or comment, please post them here and know that I will check this thread very often (especially after June 3 when I come back from a business trip).

    Here's one for myself:

    Yin, can you please wait longer to get majority feedback on forum issues before you make changes?

    Yes. Yes, I most certainly can and will.

    Apologies in advance if you've encountered these questions elsewhere. I keep on NOT finding the appropriate thread.

    Is there a thread to improve the AI's ability? I'm not talking about programming per se, but rather specific actions that strike me as suicidal, such as consistently paying
    huge amounts of tribute, or declaring war while on virtual life support.

    Simple changes in both these areas (and there are others) would have a huge effect on human game play.

        Why do you do that -=*BUMP*=- thing? What does it mean?

          He's just posting a new message so the thread gets bumped to the top of the list and doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

            Yin,
            I am relatively new to this forum and I get lost in hundreds of ver1.0 ver1.1 ... threads.

            Couldnt you put up a word doc to download where everything is summarized (shortly summarized)?
            This would help a lot to see what is already suggested.

            Thans for any help,
            ATa

              There is a summary of everything already suggested in all threads in the <a href=http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum28/HTML/000039.html>summary thread</a>, as well as summaries at the beginning of the thread for each topic. Unfortunately, the sheer volume of suggestions prevents them from being very short. We're doing the best we can to be concise, but some ideas just can't be expressed in twenty words or less.

                Thanks Bell,

                Yes, I will post a .doc file as soon as our first list is complete at the end of June. It's going to be great!

                  How about a discussion of the map itself - cylinder vs flat, resources, features, etc?
                  Maybe as an expansion of the borders topic?

                    Freddz,

                    I asked him yesterday; nothing yet. I think the project is still too early for him to say, and even if he knows, he might not want to leak out such details so soon. But I'm hoping...

                      Has Brian given you a clue on how long timewise Civ3 will extend? If he has we probably need a public statement so we can refocus our minds... (if you have already posted one I have missed it). If he hasn't we need a discussion thread here

                        Umm, it's more of an HTML question, but when I make a link using (href="blah") with < and > in place of the paretheses, how do I put text that will describe the link in it?

                          LordStone1,

                          Just go to any post that has the format you are talking about, click the 'edit message' button, and you'll be able to see all the codes and how they make the link. It's the best way to learn, I think.

                              Most don't know that you can click on the "Edit Message" and look at the html/ubb even if you aren't the author or an admin (you just can't edit it).
