Should we start PBEM tribes?

[Gavrushka]

I'm glad about that Blackice, I am sorry you had to witness one of my rare moments of seriousness

Now the moment has past.... I got you a present me Flatulent Friend.... A big cork to stop your wanton pollution.... You know what to do with it

Oh and Darth and Dad will be a team.... They have no name yet!

[jpww]

Since no one is interested in teaming up with me, I will withdraw from this game.

Thanks anyway!

[Gavrushka]

JPWW, of course someone will team with you, obviously teams got organised as per who posted- Please, unless you really want to withdraw, it is very early days, - I guess the obvious thin is that at present you would take over and partner Blackice, who will moderate these games, but I will moderate another game involving you and Blackice and say the Eskimos?? Makes perfect sense we should have five teams, with one team member moderating??

It would not be the same if you were not involved!!!!

I appreciate your concern Gav but I may not have what it takes to make a successful partnership (Tribeship?!)... namely: TIME!

Don't misunderstand me, I will not go away!

[Gavrushka]

Fully understood JPWW, I think I forget that normal people actually sleep..... .... It is taking time to sort out this idea, I do hope everyone will be patient, and as soon as it is ready to go, we will get it started.. But in the meantime, anyone that is wanting an hour or two on the evening....the early hours of the morning for me.... just get in touch with me at enquiries@iemediation.co.uk, and lets see if we can get a few practice sparring sessions in!

This Topic is not dead noooo far from it. Ok what we can do for now is play PBEM tribe games and or online. No middle ranking you win you lose thats it, the game ends you have that winner or loser.

I need a week to get set up and we are a go. It would be nice to see more players lets see what we can do. In the mean time insult some tribe get tribe challenges going we have a week to put together the challenges. I personally dont care if it is a free for all or tribe against tribe.

Email me with your challenges.

Let's get ready to rumble.

[blackice]

ok settings, preferences, email addresses and we are off and running. How do you guys want to rate this?

[Gavrushka]

Okay Raging Hoards:

1:JAFO (Romans) jack@mronlinux.com
2:Gavrushka (English) enquiries@iemediation.co.uk

We would like to challenge those festering pustules of pseudo humanity known as the Eskimos- Any relation eh ICE?

[Franses]

OK. It took us a while but we now have a name:

We want to be called the "Midgets"

How about that, he? Worth the wait, right? Anyone in for a challenge or do you not dare to challenge a couple of Midgets?

[Gavrushka]

Settings:

Regular Map

Down the Middle on every setting except Max the Rivers and Max the trade Goods

Deity Level
Ruins Only

I think we score in house waddya reckon???

Any joy on the PBEM online patch???

WHo is taken the Midgets challenge??? Darth and Dad??

[Franses]

LOL. The Midgets are Darth and dad. We do not want to challenge ourselves.

We have tried it before but we always lose

[Gavrushka]

I feel foolish beyond belief now

Can we have a ruling on this one Moderator Mr Ice? Can the Midgets take on Darth and Dad or not

I believe the challenge will be with the Shining Path.......

[Franses]

Guys,

I understand you have been trying to find a way to alternate PBEM and multiplayer. Me and my sons did this partially although the multiplayer part not using the Internet but a LAN instead. The procedure we followed was:

1. Start a new PBEM game
2. Save the game and store it in the mp directory
3. Load it as a multiplayer game
4. Multiplay it
5. Save the Multiplayer game
6. Send it around as a normal PBEM game

Strangely enough we did not succeed to transfer it back again to a multiplayer game. With a hotseat game it is no problem but that will not help us out here (unless.....). Yet, starting the first part of a game in multiplayer mode is great in itself.

Unfortunately the Midgets have a problem because we are using the Internet through a Proxy server (MS proxy server, version 2). Only the system that is directly connected to the Internet is able to multiplay. If someone could help us with that we would appreciate it.

Hey Gavrushka I'm sorry for not replay to the challenge, I just re-read the thread and see you want to play vs. Ezquimo (me and quinns).

Let me ask him to accept the challenge, do you agree?

[Fuzzball]

I've kinda sidelined the work on combining pbem and multiplayer for a bit in order to finish a mod/scenario I have been trying to finish for far too long. I'll get back around to experimenting more on the pbem mod soon I hope.
In regards to any challenges though.....My tribemates and I will be happy to play anyone who wants to. It would probably be best to set up the games via pbem for now, due to time.
