  • I'm inclined to resign.

    Reason?

    This tony character continues to grab any opportunity to be insulting. Nagging whenever things don't happen according to his mindset or what he perceives to be "just". This isn't a game anymore to him, it's a score settling, and I'm too primed now to return it with intrest.

    How does the rest of the team think about it. Anybody willing to take over? Just offer a grand "up yours" gesture and be gone?

    Just ignore him like any troll. But I fully understand your desire to resign, it's no fun playing when you're dealing with idiots...

    For future reference I think PAL should be banned from DG's at Poly, they clearly show that they're not mature enough to play with adults...

      Either way, (me continuing to play the turn or not) our civ is history.

      How about we propose Realms Beyond, or perhaps Banana if RB doesn't want to, to gift our cities and remaining units?

      Failing that, I'm thinking of a "scorched earth" approach as the Egyptian macemen advance to Diggers Burrow and Caerbannog.

        Gifting our units and cities to Banana would be a nice "**** you" to PAL. I like it

          That it would be however the maintenance would in all likely hood cripple


          Also - can we actually gift ALL of our cities?
          I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

            Put him on Ignore.

            We should as a team only respond to Krill - ignore the rest, IMO.

              The people on the Warlord's DG team have been ok haven't they?

                TBH you guys are not 100% clean. You forced the game to stop for a week because you thought PAL did something they didn't do; yes, they double moved, first warning, reload the game, and they responded to your flaming with flames of their own. You guys also didn't replay your turns fairly in the reloads which is as bad as, if not worse, than a double move.

                Yes, you may not like them, and they probably don't like you. But continuing in this vein only spoils the game for everyone; if PAL should be banned for it so should you guys.

                So let the moral of the story be, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
                You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

                  Krill - I am not necessarily disagreeing with you.

                  Which is why I suggested what I did above - that we do not communicate with PAL - as it seems to be making the situation worse.

                  In any effect this will probably all be over for us in a few turns.

                    Yeah, if you don't communicate with them, then you are absolved of the issue; it makes it alot easier to deal with any problems that arise

                      If there are issues and the communication is done via you as ADMIN of this game - then it is not about absolving ourselves - if we have done wrong then so be it - it is about trying to reduce the amount of flaming going on.

                        ...That was what I was talking about. Could have made that clearer I suppose.

                          Only because we haven't had much contact with them... I seem to remember that they behaved in a similar fashion in the ISDG, at least towards the CGN team. But then it was Ellestar that was the idiot, which seems to point to the fact that this is how PAL plays when they're pressured...

                              As on the flaming, in my book this tony character started the whole thing. And this team did stop it after your warning. Now on the latest issue the very same tony attempted to start it again.

                              Yes, you may not like them, and they probably don't like you. But continuing in this vein only spoils the game for everyone; if PAL should be banned for it so should you guys.

                              We thought they made a double move? With all due respect, Krill, they did make a double move in the first place and only after that did I come up with my second allegation of how they took out Valley Hutch (which indeed proved wrong). So, in short, there already was a (later) confirmed double move on which I only added a possible extra. If it took a week to come up with a decision, that's not the fault of the Caerbannog team. IIRC you checked the turns in a single day once everybody agreed to you as admin.

                              As on the replay, that turn didn't become the official turn later on due to your admin decision. If you absolve PAL now because of their rampant double playing (for whatever reason) I don't think you should hold it against this team.

                              In any case, the point is moot in the short term because of my harddrive failure.
