Just don't forget to send me a PM when you're ready. I'll be needing teamname, 5 civ list, password.
I'll send it tomorrow evening, bathsheba hasn't showed up since 18th...
Sent.
Bathsheba, how do we arrange the email? Maybe create a new gmail account?

Is bathsheba still playing the game ?
Yes, he had problems with internet =/
Let's use "teammetal at gmail.com" as our email. Password is same as in the game ;)
Here's our start.

I am curious as to why you didn't settle on the gold hill. You would've been able to work the plains wheat right away, be founded on a hill for defense, get gold for early research and $$$, and you get an extra turn of production compared to this wasted one.
I thought that we'd waste the bonuses. We wouldn't?

Hmm strange start, does the RNG normally put a settler on forest???

Bonus would not be lost; only shields and food are influenced by the Despotism penalty.

Actually Rik, it is affected by the Despotism penalty, IIRC, so one is taken away, but it still goes to the city center, unlike food which doesn't (ie; settling on a cow).
This'll make your victory even more incredible, Ville. ;)

Ah, or should that be: duhhhh, this is the forum you meant.
(I registered on some other forum through your signature Link.)
I sent a PM style email the other day, and later went ahead and played the second turn anyway.
though we might be in danger of having the enter button popped on us.
You were in favour of alternate weeks playing this.
Let me know when you want to start / stop.
Let's forget that and first one to get it plays :) We need to discuss our plans.

OK, I made the next run as well since it was a no-brainer.
btw I chose Bronze Working for the tech.
I'm currently building a UU, but I assume we will want to change this so we don't get a GA with only one city....

Ah, just saw your recent post.
I can win races as long as I don't know I'm in them...

Bath: Noone is going to press enter for such a mistake. The enter-thingy is just for when teams don't play for a certain amount of time, to keep the game going. And you first get a reminder in the forum.
Don't worry about it; I and Markstar have no intention to ever skip a turn for anyone.
Tip: post in this forumthread when you play, that prevents confusing.
Looks like a great start [happy]
Let's build couple of MJs and maybe try to rush the nearest neighbour [mischief] They are great explorers anyway.
Bronze Working is good tech since we don't have alphabet and we have our UU, let's go for Iron Working :)
Builds:
Few MJs [crazyeye]
Settler
Granary
Settlers
In our 2nd city, build workers and military.

turn tracker has a mismatch between moves and dates.... gps anyway
I'm away this weekend. Have fun :)
First Metal Jaguar built, he was sent to river forest in NW. I think we might meet someone there most likely.

Good Call. Met the Milfhunters.
btw
Just recovered from another set of PC problems,
but a third set loom.
I'll be away Aug 21- Sep 5
Now that they know we are near, we might not have a chance to rush them... unless their capital is only few tiles away and empty. ;)

An update picture would be handy. Us lurkers have some outside knowledge that is incomplete due to your lack of pics ;)
Let's take a picture next turn ;)

2nd MJ built, don't know what to build so I chose settler. You can change it next turn if you want

I'm about to go on holiday from Sunday until Sep 5.
Enjoy....
Do tell me what you'd like me to do in the game...
Sorry for the lack of input, since I "joined".
Ok. I loaded the last save and I guess you started irrigating the wheat. I would chop the forest ne of ToT for a granary after that and build the 2nd town on the hill next to the wheat.
I found Milf border [groucho]
They had defender in the capital and warrior coming towards us so when Beam contacted us and proposed peace till turn 60, I accepted, we might ally with them getting rid of other possible teams in this island...
Haven't checked, they are willing to trade though :)
bathsheba666
21-09-2005, 22:12
Doesn't look like we have anything to trade that they need.
Turn 18:
Met the Gremlins north of the Milf city.
Offered them BW.
We should decide what we want for it?,
and also whether to have peace treaty?
Yes, peace is good. What can we get for bw?
digger760
26-09-2005, 10:25
you meet Gremlins? how about a map update then
bathsheba666
29-09-2005, 23:55
They apparently had nothing to trade.
Where should our settler head for the next town?
quote:Hi Metal, this is the Gremlins from the Superfast game. We welcome you as friends, and would like to meet you on MSN someday. We see you have a tech to trade (maybe more ?), and you already know we have at least one as well. Tell us your preferences for an MSN meeting, or maybe just a plain email negociation.
krys, on behalf of the Gremlins team (also Darkness and Banzai)
Turn is in!
I agree with grs that we should build the 2nd city on the hill next to the wheat.
I wrote this to krys, while we wait for an anwser we can still discuss, what we want to trade.
quote:Hi krys,
on behalf of Team Metal I ask you if you would like to trade techs with us. We can offer Bronze Working to you, what will you offer in return?
Christian
grs
I also recalled one of our jw. We must at least have one protector at home, switched ToT to a granary and started the chop for it. Settler was moved to the hill next to the wheat to settle down there. We should connect our wines next and we need a 2nd worker after the granary.

Edit: And why have we been running 30% lux last turn(s)???
Hmm... last turn I've played was 16 ;)
Lux to 10%. City name? Build? Moves?
quote:Hello Team Metal !
We're unfortunately not interested in getting Bronze Working from you. But we are open to any future trade, and may come back to you, should the opportunity arise.
krys, team Gremlins
P.S. : Any team email address we can send messages to ?
quote:Hello Team Metal !
Although we declined your offer, we think it would be nice to see you in a chat on MSN, to discuss about a possible peace deal. What about it ?
Team Gremlins I think we should try to fix a peace deal. Any objections?
bathsheba666
16-10-2005, 23:30
I agree about a peace deal.
btw, I went back to move 17 where I started playing a few moves.
My apologies, I didn't spot lux was (already) up to 30%.
Ok I replied that we are interested in a peace deal.
