Up for a Challenge Match berXpert?

Does your game take a while to exit?

I've had that happen when I have Windows 98 Compatibility on.

Next question for berXpert

Does your game take a while to exit?

Depending on map size of number of units it will take some time to build next player turn.

Hello, ALL. I must be a web dunce, seeing as I only check in here about twice per year! I don't really understand the "email bouncing" problem, but I did recently upgrade to Norton Internet Security 2005. Hopefully that will help.

As far as the big file handling discussion, I've always had to save the .csg files to my game directory. Clicking the filenames never worked for me. (Platypus: Sorry you've had such a frustrating time of it!) This does make it a very ponderous process to play multiple games, which maybe explains why I don't play so much.

Anyhow, I hope Gramps the Mighty will forgive me and continue on where we left off.

Sure, send turn 0 and options you want to play such as if you like Wonders on or off, ruins on or off, etc. to:

berXpert at yahoo.com.mx don't forget .mx


If my start position is really awful I will ask for a restart

Update on challenge match 135: I guess it's over. I can't ever get a response from Blackgryffin. He broke his leg almost a year ago and I heard from him a couple times after that, then nothing for the past 6 months. We didn't even get very far. How about a challenge to #16 Flameflash?

Guess what !! A ladder update !!
I read the recent post and took the opportunity to make an update. Not that there was terribly much going on here.

20.06.05
- blackice set to inactive.

21.06.05
- Challenge 143, ricketyclik vs. Dimytes, started.
- Challenge 144, Checkmate vs. berXpert, started.

23.06.05
- Challenge 133 ends with Dimytes defeating Hatschy.

29.06.05
- Challenge 105 ends with berXpert defeating Grandpa Troll.
(I counted that for the date you mentioned it instead of when it was actually finished, in order to not cause any continuity problems. Temporal distortions and all.. a nightmare, I tell you. I'm sure you understand. )

03.07.05
- Challenge 145, Platypus Rex vs. johnzim, started.

07.07.05
- Challenge 146, EPW vs. berXpert, started.

08.12.05
- Challenge 135, thehappies vs. blackgryffin, cancelled.
You said you didn't get far, so cancelling the game seems appropriate. Also, I think it is safe to say that blackgryffin isn't active anymore, so I suggest to either cancel or concede his running games and drop him to the bottom of his BAID as inactive. If no objections, I will do so.

[MILAMBER]

challenge match 121 RC vs Milamber
RC wins grrrrrrrrr turn 221
good game RC
rematch started
