looking for a PBEM

[ProPain]

Last weekend got the old civ blood running again and after installing CIV4 on my new desktop I'd love to do some 1v1 civ. Having learned from previous experiences I will only start one game to start and I;m telling beforehand that things can be slow with me sometimes depending on the time I've got.

Also I suck at civ4 so if you need a stiff fight: don't play me. If you don't mind an easy kill: I'm the best shot you have. :)

[Rik Meleet]

I'm interested and not a very strong player (but no cannonfodder either ;) )

[ProPain]

great, lets get this show on the road then. Do we still have map makers or do we go with a random map?

[Rik Meleet]

I'm fine with either.
Since you are on a slow time scheme I suggest a very small map where we are so close we'll be kicking eachother's butt immediately.

Rest: random ?

[ProPain]

Random fine with me. Are we taking on AI civs?

[Lt. Killer M]

I'll give this one a try on the train - can you decide on the remaining parameters until today, 17:00?

[Rik Meleet]

I don't see much of an added benefit in extra AI.
Killer: sorry, way too busy to check CDZ today, so nothing conclusive before 17:00.

If you ask me a 3 human player very small map with everything random is the way we're going to do it ?

[ProPain]

wasnt watching CDZ either, sorry Killer. I;m fine with Rik's proposal

3? Who's the third player? I won't have time, I just wanted to offer my map-making non-skills [lol]

[Rik Meleet]

Ah ok Killer.

I think we are ready for it then. Could you cook up a map?
Little room, random, but fair.

My email = ***civ@gmail.com where the stars are "Rik". So Rikciv.
(anti spambot way)

[Lt. Killer M]

Is this to be CIV or BtS or what version?

Also: Civ choices?

[Rik Meleet]

Civ choices: random.
I have BtS 3.17, I think PP has too. Right PP ?

[ProPain]

seems my previous msg didnt get posted: yes I have BtS3.17 as well

[Lt. Killer M]

OK, I'll start making the map this evening!

[ProPain]

You're the man Killer!!!

[Rik Meleet]

PP:
My email = ***civ@gmail.com where the stars are "Rik". So Rikciv.
(anti spambot way)

What emailaddress do I send your saves to ?

[Lt. Killer M]

sending the game to PP now.

Sent it to propain _AT_ civ3duelzone.com - is that OK?

[Lt. Killer M]

PLEASE NOTE: I recommend settling in place.
The map is not symmetrical, but you have identical first 21 tiles.
Game speed is normal with raging barbarians and 'choose religions'.

[Rik Meleet]

Thx Killer. :)

thank me when you get the turn from PP and can open it properly ;)

[ProPain]

acn you send that to the email adres that I will PM you. The password to my CDZ email is on my old laptop and I manages to pour some beer over that one. I can say it didnt handle that very well.

[Matrix]

Just tell your laptop what they told me all the time: you have to learn to like beer.

[Lt. Killer M]

done :)

[ProPain]

the game wants a password, I;ve tried guessing but that didnt work....

[Lt. Killer M]

it is in the email I sent you.

[ProPain]

right, thanks. I;m a blind bat, sorry about that.

no problem at all, mate!

(Gee, two days in jolly old England and I start using words I NEVER use!)

[Rik Meleet]

PP: I have no save in my mailbox yet.
Haven't you played yet or is there something wrong with the mail ?

[ProPain]

I think something went wrong with the mail, resent it. It feels good to be back on the pbem track :)

[Matrix]

Can't wait to read the spoilers. ;) (<-- properly intended wink)

[Rik Meleet]

got it :)

[ProPain]

Today turn 35 was played!
