How about some one-on-one Civ CTP?

Solver. Pls resend turn for this game ASAP.

I sent the turn, but I think he just didn't get it for some reason, but he did get SOW turns. I'll resend the turn in some 5 hours, when I get home. Letð forget this:none of us is delinquent, as I sent, but he didn't get it. Sorry about this.

Agreed, neither TheBirdMan nor Solver is delinquent.

It gets confusing when posts are not made to this topic after sending a turn. It seems that the game is stalled rather than just mis-sent. Mis-sent turns become obvious when the post reads "Turn sent to ..." and the receiver doesn't get it.

[Solver]

We post this often, but alas "often" doesn't mean "always".

Ay! I was hoping the ADMINISTRATOR, of all people, would support me on turn notification. Guess not. I know it takes a long time, sometimes, to post on this forum. What should then be our policy on this "forum turn notification" regarding rated games? Sometimes you can post and sometimes you don't? I would rather not post unless I had something to say, but I do anyway.

Is there, perhaps, some better way to notify all players that the turn was sent? I have to wait 10 minutes sometimes to post one message on this forum... and I have a cable modem with speeds (supposedly) at 3 million bits per second!

Turn to The Holy Saint Himself - The One And Only On Earth.

My single warrior just investigate everything, he get near.

Else? No news.

[St Jon]

Turn 7 to Arthur.

Come on guys, this is getting silly, I'd even forgotten that I was playing the Dutch!

[quinns]

Good for you BirdMan. Let's try to forget all this delinquency and late stuff and focus on the game. After all, though I understand: Quinn's (my) whining, Arthur's lateness, Solver's non-posts, and St Jon's impatience, it is just a GAME. Let's play!

Well, I'll post it next time, I'm usually trying to, but keep forgetting sometimes. Really, let's forget it. At least this time.

Actually I didn't mention any by names - who are they ? - I will not tell you, cause that's an subjective and not an objective point of view .

But one or two was right - but that one, who uses a shot-gun often hits something .

Arthur, I'm afraid we are going to have to A/I you if you don't respond by 20-NOV-2000 14:44 Apolyton time (72 hour limit).

St Jon, if Arthur doesn't notify this topic, "How about some", by 14:44 today (Eastern United States "Apolyton" Time), please A/I him and send the turn to me. At that time, I'll put up a notice for a replacement player.

Arthur's player turned into a computer player. St Jon, please send A/I'd turn to steveq@gte.net. Thanks.

[St Jon]

I need a resend as both sent and received have been deleted.

Any takers for replacements? If not, maybe we can start over with all of the active players from "How About Some" and "R2_Islands". That is: Solver, King Thor, Aaginor, St Jon, TheBirdMan, and Quinns. That's a six player game with a good group. Anybody want to do this? We can make it a very accelerated start with 4 stacks composed of 2 stacks of settlers and 2 stacks of warriors placed in a two by two tile square. 30% land, 80% islands. Just a thought.

[Arthur]

You know if you were to send me my turns I might be able to play them. It is awfully hard to play when the turn is never received. So if you all have a problem I can tell you all just where to stick it.

Thank you,
Arthur
