Alien Seed - Thread III

[Addled Platypus]

To all those who need to know

I have stated and agreed to peace for the alotted time frame and possibly longer

I WILL move my units where ever I see fit-

could it be they are still exploring uncovered areas?

I will publicy declare war before I start moving troops to attack..

until then peace out

- NOTE - I did get the turn by mistake, I allready played 185

im not sure

hard to track a slow game with continually changing players

maybe we got it now though

[thehappies]

Ok, I think the confusion is just because dancemasseuse cc'd everybody on his turn. As long as we post here when we play our turn, I don't think we need to cc everybody . . .

[gumpold]

186-> horned frog

186--->Gramps

I disagree about the cc'ing. I have found that people forget and accidents happen. so in the subject line if you tell people who's turn it is (Which I did) then we can all keep track and keep it moving. If we post here to keep track then when someone does not get their turn they won't look hear until they are ready to post. So the turn sits idle unless we check the thread everyday. Remember it sounds good however in reality we only look here after we get the turn and are ready to post. So if we did not get the turn, then we do know if it got stopped unless we log on here everyday or even every so often. I other games we have moved so much faster since we started doing this. I notice each turn and get to see it moving and can help keep up. Like I am playing a game with ken/horned frog and if I know he has this turn and he hasn't sent this one I notice that and ask him. So it helps keep a game moving. JIn s few other games almost every person is playing someone else so we all know when it stops immedietely without have to log on extra times to do it. ust because we never did it before is not a good reason not to.

Yea guys see Grampa and platypus have it right. They see what I see. I always look and see what I would do if I was someone elsa. And if I was them I would have Platypus attack me between me and the Romans to tie up troops of mine in my north while he invades across the water to my south leading with Interceptors and following with the marines and tanks and paratroopers. I would fold like paper and they both see it. I also see the look on Grampa's face here about his intentions at the end ofthe truce. World pollution will rise, smile. After that guess who wins???
I am not crying or asking for help so don't think of this as whining. I laugh when I look. So The Dutch, Canadian, Romans and Welsh need to think about it.
yea, Grampa I bet you do have nukes, smile.
I see those clouds looming over the horizon.

I don't mind cc'ing everybody with each turn, but I think if you are in more than 10 games or so, that could make for a pretty hairy mess in your inbox. i'm only in 5 or 6 games, so it wouldn't bother me.

and I post here for two reasons:

One to track the turn, I aint cc'ing everyone
No I am not doing this

I will post here and its up to people to prompt the turn to move

The other reason I post here is for fun

To add some drama and also commradrie in story telling and trying to add some realism

I wont necessarily attack at the 10 turn mark although I might

Nukes are ok but many other units have additional fun in attacking

Time will tell
