Swissy's Acc game #2 Turn Posting

[Demosthenes99]

Unfortunately I am in a difficult position here. Anyone who has looked at my profile will be aware that I am a student. Also, most people will be aware that it is almost christmas. For me, that means travelling to the other end of the UK for 3 weeks, whereupon I will not have access to either the internet, or to CTP.

So you see, I have a problem. I do not want you to stop playing if you intend to carry on playing over christmas, however, I do not want everyone to get miffed with me for not playing myself and allowing the AI to run the show.

So, unless anyone has any suggestions I'm afraid that as of Saturday December 18th I will be unavailable to play, up unitl (sorry guys) January 10th next millenium (or next year if you believe the millenium is being celebrated early).

If the game has not made it to me be Saturday Decamber 18th, please set me to AI, and have a merry christmas and a happy new year.

Sorry to be a pain guys, I don't see what else I can do.

Turn 45 ==> Sophix

Considering the number of turns which could pass, I would not want the AI to play my position. In US PBEM, I was set to AI for 7 turns and it set me back ten.

If the others agree, I could play the position until the Welshman gets back to school. Email me a general commentary on how you want your civ to progess, your relationship to your neighboring civs, and anything else you think may be important.

[Demosthenes99]

Hey guys, I don't want to cause unnecessary hassle here. Admitedly, the idea of not losing out due to the AI is appealing, but it will cause extra work for Swissy this Yuletide.

No offence Swissy, but there is the issue of not wanting to give one player an advantage over the others.

But then you did start the whole game off, and so know alot about our civilisations anyway.

I guess the rest of you guys should let us know what you think.

[Lung]

Yeah, let Swissy play your turn. You're in a impregnable position at the moment, of which only the AI could screw you, so i think you should go with it.

Turn 45 ==> Shavlor

Im definitely agreeable to allowing Swissy to play.

Does anyone want to play for Demosthenes while he's gone in the Semi Accelerated Game?

It would be a big help thanx.

[Shavlor]

turn 44 --> Lung
I am a trendy man I follow the flow saying yes let Swissy play your turn.

[Demosthenes99]

Ok then, I guess that's settled it then. I have no problem with Swissy taking over, and it seems nobody else does either.

Cheers mate, I guess that's it's over to you. Cheers for being so reasonable about it guys.

Speak to you all in the new year.

Have a good one!

Turn 45 to Burchill.

I volunteer to play for Demosthenes in his Semi-accelerated pbem game, which i am not a part of. I will get Burchill to send Demosthenes' turn to Swissy instead.

[Sophanthro]

Great thanx Lung,
Ill contact Jon and have him send the game to you, when it rolls around to him again.
I think Demos will be able play his turn today. So you should get a turn on Saturday or sunday.

Thanks Again
Sophanthro

Uh uh. This is quite probably my last post of the year. So don't send the file to me.

Have a good one!

Swissy, you're a deadset legend! At this rate we may become the fastest pbem game so far
