Good job Dr. Doom good work Keygen

One note though I am not sure if a game will count if the saved turns are not submitted promptly.

I will leave this up to the judges that be, but a month of waiting for saved turns to be sent is a long time. i can see no reason for a delay?

I see problems with this too as they can be tampered with. That is not to say some one is but it can be done easy.

Someone has to decide about a rule for this, seems to me Yoda tosses the turns at me as soon as the game is over as have others. Yet Dr. doom it has been a month now?

Just bring up some points here so please no one get into a huff. We are looking for a fair tourney and that is an area not addressed here as yet.

Good call, so everyone is keeping everything "above-board"..no need to have any alarms go off!!

Paul has said he will play tonight at around 7pm my time. So, tomorrow will have to be the start time. 8:00 GMT-6 means 6am on a Sunday. Can we start a bit later? I might be able to get up for 7am (your 9:00 GMT-6) if I don't end up playing all night with Paul...

Ok, I'll check lobby by 10 GMT-6 so you can sleep 1 extra hour

Blackice:

Mea culpa; tho the thought of tampering with the saved games honestly never entered my mind. In fact I was unaware this could be done!

I'll start sending the saves from my game with Paul to you over the next few days.

And Keygen, thanks for the game. You're a good sport, and a nice guy too.

No Biggy I did not think anyone thought of it I just know it can be done and realized no one ever thought of it

I am glad you never took it personally it certainly was not intended to be.

No problem just label them Paul and Doom so they go into the right folder

Keygen is a nice guy and a great sport, he definately represents the Pbem way. Be nice to see some of you GLer's play here I am sure you would enjoy the games and the people

The big advantage is you play when you have a few minutes and get to play many games at one time.

Today I had a vision tomorrow I could be blind.

The interesting part is we have it half right in PBEM

Of course putting 30 war mongers in one room can lead to conflicts

Paul

Well Paul? You said we would play today... almost 4 hours ago... and??? This is the 4th time we have talked about continuing our game and you have't shown up? You didn't even have the decency to let me know you weren't going to show! Not to mention "crashing" and then not even to bother coming back in to say you weren't going to continue playing. For someone who stated that you didn't have anything to do and LOTs of time to play, you sure are making yourself scarce.

This is the third time I've posted asking... When do you want to continue our game? You have the lead on the power graph and science is fairly close...??

LOL... slept in by 6 minutes (8:06 in the lobby)...

berXpert vs yoda

We played for about 5 hours on Sunday and took the game to around 1095ad. Hopefully we will be able to finish this coming weekend. BerXpert is slightly ahead on science but I have a significant lead on the power graph. Contact came late at around 1085ad. Blackice, berXpert has the saves.

H

H told me he would like to join the tournament. I think he would be a good addition given that so many have dropped out (by default for most of them). Does anyone have a problem with this idea? I asked him to post here to confirm his intentions.

H. I know you from my days as PATTON and I remember you as a very worthy adversary!

As for the time issue, I shouldnt think thats an issue at this point with most having "scheduling" issues!!
Good luck and I hope you wear 'em out!
