The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. --G.B.Shaw -
I agree with GeoModder. This is the truth.Originally posted by GeoModder
Too many Civplayers want this to be a clash of linear growth, grudgingly accepting the possible benefits terrain gives to other teams. Wild cards like GP's don fit in such a view.
You should have seen the ruckus when I seized on a "loophole" left in the ruleset of the Civ PBEM I participate in.
No to best micromanagment demogame.

Honestly, some Civ players can get very narrow minded. Others are obsessively fixed with Building. The fact that we're not playing on a Pangaea is bad enough as it has completely ruled out a conquest victory.Comment

I wouldn't say that pangaea rules out conquest and I would say that pangaea is pretty extreme end.
Also, if GP is allowed, it should benefit the fighters at least a little, as Fried himself admitted, so it should balance out things with conquest.-- What history has taught us is that people do not learn from history.

Why should it be disallowed?Indifference is BlissComment

See the big thread where some conservativists are running in tail of the great Fried-Psitalon, who knowing he and his team has an inherent advantage due to being very expierenced in cIV MP, are doing all they can to disallow it.
If it is on, their cardhouse of strategy would quickly dissolve as some things will be slightly different.
Everyone else except us, Mercs and some bright individuals are pretty much following blindly as sheep..-- What history has taught us is that people do not learn from history.

Lol, this is hilarious, I posted Soren's personal opinion, or maybe rather opinion how he sees the GP issue (because the question can be taken as not personal) and they drop on the quote demoting the very person who made this game..

Did you ask soren if you could quote him on that? Unless you linked him to our discussion, his statement would be illegitimate. On the same note, soren bashing= see thread
What they really are saying is CIV4 has one set of intended strategy and anything that goes beyond=bad. I suspected they wanted to own and define civ4 when i read their after-release posts reeking of 'holier than thou' (ironic statement from me, mr creationist
). The way they argued against tree chopping, did anyone see that? You couldnt say 'chop' without them showing up and extolling civ4(and how chopping is well balanced).
What is up with krill BS and not giving links?
Hehe what a big mess i helped start...
By helping start, i mean by sending in teh Latvian Elite Commandoes.

Tieði tâ, komandier!Latvian Elite Commandoes
No I didn't.Did you ask soren if you could quote him on that?
I somehow assumed that he's a bit more of authority to those people and they won't be denouncing him.
Also - the statement is his opinion, who'd be posting in a forum aswell, if he was asked, so, I think there's nothing wrong with posting it if we talk about legal terms.
Im considering to send an apology to Soren.
Those people are indeed pathetic, I agree.soren bashing
Bashing someone who's even not there..
Which contradicts what Soren says.What they really are saying is CIV4 has one set of intended strategy and anything that goes beyond=bad
It seems the case here, yes.I suspected they wanted to own and define civ4 when i read their after-release posts reeking of 'holier than thou'
I think he's making it all up, like if there was/had been some discussion or stuff.What is up with krill BS and not giving links?
I highly suspect there wasn't, at least Soren would know and admit it.
And I really doubt a discussion can be so secret (at least most of it).

Unfortunatly i dont have latvian fonts installed+auto translators cannot handle latvian at all. They cant handle any language-the only one i have any start on besides english is german, and i can see when it translates its just not right.
You should see the folder i put together on flyboy21a. Interestingdlperson that likes RP

That is Civ4 beta testing forum.
Not the main, Firaxis one though (which is restricted to special persons, some of whom are FP, Krill, NYE), but only Poly's.-- What history has taught us is that people do not learn from history.

Weird. It seems to have been founded 16 December 2005 only. Is it for an expansion pack (and are you a beta-tester)?Comment
