Forever Future 1.7 PBEM game

First wonder - Labirynth was built.
World will never be the same anymore.

Well, it seems that the change of a player went pretty seamlessly, turn 34 played and sent. It was a hard decision, but I think half a year is enough of a leeway, and we're certainly moving a lot faster now. It also seems Dan is slow to register here, though, well, his loss
Turns out the Egypt is sandwiched between France and the Celts, which puts me in a quite delicate position With Japan clinging to the frozen wastes Down Under, the whole centre of the map is left for the Romans to divide and conquer.

On the RPing side of things, I'm replacing the portrait of Boadicea with this:



Merlin of the Celts!

Hope you like it ^_^

[Cuaich]

Well, my time is now free and I can play turns immediately. I no longer have to manage 15 people at work while trying to maintain everything that was supposed to be done by 2 people at home. So all I have now is time...and this game would have helped fill that time.

[Max_Smirnov]

I'm sorry to hear about your problems, Bruce, I hope everything will sort out in the end. However, we really need to increase the pacing here, as this game serves also as a test before the new release. Thanks for your understanding.

[Cuaich]

Oh...I didn't see the message from Max because it was on the previous page. OK...well, there you go. Good luck to you all.

[Cuaich]

Well it's true.
I don't mind taking it easy, but this is kind of an overkill.
I know you've been busy Cuaich, and you have your own pace, which gave you the title of unhurried, but I think what we desire is just a little bit more lively behaviour.
I'd like to leave my tundra surrounding before 2014!

I have sent turn 31.

I'm sorry about my pace. In December my fiancee went off the deep end and ended our relationship, and last week I lost my job. My mind has been elsewhere. However, as of this Friday I am going to have nothing but time to play CTP. My pace should pick up, but replace me if need be...I'll understand.

With regrets, I have to kick Cuaich out of this game.

With 5 months passed and 31 turns, we're barely averaging 1 turn per 5 days. And it's not a secret that 75% of that time was taken up by just one player. This simply can't go on like this and every other player has had enough. While I understand that not everyone is able to play their turn reasonably quickly, it's simply incompatible with what the others expect.

Since I have just come into contact with Celt scouts, it's about the last moment we can change the roster. So, I'm sorry, but it has to be like this. We have a replacement player, so the game can pick up seamlessly, I hope. Thanks for your time and effort Cuaich, and no hard feelings, I hope.

[Max_Smirnov]

Zerg Rush failed, eh? Don't worry, I'm still scared of you

[Eerion]

29 played and sent.

I have a terrible feeling that what I considered my opportunity for comeback is just a bad joke created by the map itself.
And when I see city with 5 population already...

ehh...
