turn 2152 sent to SmacxVeteran

[SmacxVeteran]

next person's turn is domai, need to know if hercules is surrenderin or if he wants to battle on
in the hopes of not getting the least points.

[Hercules]

Turn 2152 to eldramatico. I was tired and had to get up next morning for meeting (to which I was late by 30 mins btw).

Anyhow I decided to stick with it for awhile. Domai is always a slow starter.

[SmacxVeteran]

Good man!

Remember, it isn't winner takes all, you need to hold out, so not to get last place, because they get the least points.

2153 received from Eldramatico and turned to SmacxVeteran

Florin79c didn't played turn 2152.
I think that's because he finished the turn before I saved the game. Need confirmation from Florin on that ...

[SmacxVeteran]

Ok, turn sent to DOMAI. I think next game we should not be able to call council until we have actually MET each other. The fact that we have each others contact is a bug in the game.

[SmacxVeteran]

Oh forgot to mention, have you guys voted in Bdanv's thread about how many games we should play in the league. I think 5, we can always play again.. but I think 8 is too many. What you guys think?

Why, did someone called the council in PBEM? There are some rules for that!

[SmacxVeteran]

Hasn't LAL already called council, thats what I am referring too?!? Or am I thinking of another game?

What I thought was LAL called council, once all the AI died, when really, he doesn't have all the comm links to be able to do this. Its only because of a bug in the game.

BTW check out his v. nice guide I found... nice strats etc.

Let me explain it again, LAL has all the comms, when he shouldn't. thats what i'm saying, its a bug, that we all have each others comm's in this game. We should acutally have to met each other, or buy comm's of each other. Otherwise it means the council governor gets infiltration on you, when he hasn't even met u!?!? see my point..

OK. It seems that I should post some rules for those IP games.
You are right about the infiltration. I think we all agree that we should get the comms only after we have met in the game. So that's a bug and will be forbidden from now on.

Anyway: Who's holding the turn?

Hercules, did you get the turn from SmacxVeteran?

!!! EDITED !!!

News on the next IP session:
I just got a message from Eldramatico saying that he has the most difficult week of the semester, and he is not sure he can make it for the IP session, at least not till 23:30 /24h GMT on friday, and even then is not a sure thing. He is still available for PBEM, though.

[Hercules]

No I did not get another turn .
