Away
 

Like the topic title says, I'll be away for a while....

From june 2nd to june 13th, to be exact, 'cause my boss is sending me to a big convention in the US. :)

The following PBEMs will be on hold until I return:
- Banzai
- Killer
- Kryszctov
- Puwen
- Tiny 4-player (Dell19, Killer and Wosret)

I will try to play all saves that arive before 23:00 CET tomorrow, but after that my C3C access is gone until june 13th...

I emailed your name to CIA's annonymous Terrorists Inc.

Have fun![goodjob]

[rotfl] Some of my colleagues already threatened to do that as well! [lol]

Thanks KR. (and I'll definately have fun, 'cause I'm staying for three extra days after the whole work-thingy is finished. :))

I sent the FBI an email about a hippy from Holland with weird tobacco in his luggage.

Bon voyage D, and be weary of them calling for big muscular ladies with plastic gloves at the airport over there [mischief]

Edit: I didnt know your name, so I described you as a person covered in darkness instead.

Where city is the convention in Darkness?

San Antonio, Texas

If you happen to be in Houston, we can go out and have a dinner.

Would be nice, but I am afraid my only visit to Houston will be a one-hour lay-over at Houston International Airport on the flight back home. :(

San Antonio, isnt that where Lefty is located? Perhaps the two of you could do something :D

Are you trying to get me assimilated by CFC's all-powerful Cyborg mod? [crazyeye]

Well if you like basketball the San Antonio Spurs are rocking. I'm sure the town will be crazy when you're there. I've never been to San Antonio so I'm no help on stuff to do.

My first response too was "Hey, Lefty lives there!" :) I would certainly give it a try to meet him. But you might not know him that well, nor the other way around.

Anyway, have fun!

Go to Seaworld. It is nice if you have not yet been in one already. And Riverwalk is a cool place. But it will be terribly hot there.

I suggest you go check the CFC sports forum to see which basketball team I support... ;)

Thanks for the advice akots. :)

hey D, have fun!

I'll be gone to the US, too, when you get back, so no PBEM before 29th!

Good luck and enjoy Darkness!

OK, guys, I'll be away again for a while...

My flight to Cancun leaves at 10:30 in the morning on friday, so the following PBEMs will be on hold until I return (july 30th):

- vs Banzai
- vs Killer
- vs Puwen
- vs Krys
- Tiny 4-player

I played all saves I had in my inbox yesterday afternoon at 5 PM CET, so I hope I see five new saves when I get back ;).

See you all in two-and-a-half weeks, and have fun at Killers' party! :)

Have fun!!

I'm back again.... :)

Great vacation, now it's back to work (from thursday anyway... :()

Welcome back. :)

Gonna play that save now, and will play our turns asap from now on. Civ4 is coming, and we still have 450 turns to play, given our start. ;)

I hope Cancun was a nice place to drink, drink and drink ! [goodjob]

Cancun was OK, but I only was there one night.... ;)

My girlfriend and I did a 16 day roundtrip through the southern part of Mexico, Guatemala, a bit of Honduras and a small part of Belize...
Awesome sights! Fantastic nature and great, great Maya cities!

Now, this IS what I would have liked to see !! [thumbsup] Did you climb on top of some Mayan temples ? I also hope you weren't annoyed by a hurricane that I think went through Yucatan lately... [hmm] Hard to depict a trip going through so many countries in Latin America...

Anyway the save was played, and I'm currently experiencing serious unhappiness at the moment. [crazyeye]

Hurricane Emily? We kept missing that one by a day... :)
When Emily reached Cancun, we had just left there, and we were on the other end of the peninsula, at Merida. And when Emily reached Merida, we had just left there for Palenque, which is at the beginning of the mountain range that goes through central America from north to south. And when the bad weather from Emily reached Palenque, we were already high up in the mountains (2200m) at San Christobal de las Casas. So we were really, really lucky! :)

The Maya cities were great! Especially Palenque and Tikal. Chichen Itza is also very beautiful, but about half the buildings there were built by the Toltecs, who conquered part of the Maya territory after 1000 AD, so that city was quite different from the rest of them.

And, yes, we did climb all the temples that we could (and one that was not allowed, but we only learned that when we were heading back to the exit, as the sign was hidden... [rolleyes])
Among others, we climbed the Temple of Kukulkan at Chichen Itza, right before a thunderstorm hit. Quite an amazing sight! And we also climbed the highest known Maya templ, which is located in Tikal, and is about 70 meters high. That one had a great view over the surrounding jungle...

I seriouly doubt your unhappyness is as big as mine. You've got the library and I got RoP raped by the Hittites, so who do you think is in better shape? [crazyeye]

Mayaland full of temples, while a lot of their lands (including Chizen Itza) was in Toltec hands... Why didn't they culture-flip back ?

Must have been an amazing vacation !!

Because apparently the Maya's abandoned all their cities (except Chichen Itza) between 900-1000 AD, so there wasn't anything to flip back to... ;)

Best one so far! :)

Going away again...

Last minute work-related trip to Thessalonica (Greece) scheduled from tuesday september 27th until sunday october 2nd...
And, because this a last-minute thing :(, I still have a lot of work (preparing a presentation, etc.) to do before I leave so I don't have a lot of time (read: next to nothing) for playing civ before I leave.

I've got to formally request a skip for SGOTM 8...

I'll try to play PBEM saves in my inbox tonight but I can't make any promises.

Games on hold:
vs. Killer
vs. Banzai
vs. Puwen (not moving anyway)
Tiny 4-player (dead)

Banzai and Krys can take care of the 16+ game while I am gone, so no worries/holdup there.

Have fun and good luck!

LOL you guys are always moving ! [lol] Anyway, Greece sounds nice, I hope you can taste some of it when you're there. :)

Unfortunately no... :(
It's a four day convention, and I have to go back immediately after due to family commitments.

On vacation from now until july 26th... :)

Back again... :)

Woop welcome back, have a good time?

Now we can get Rock On kickstarted again :)

Will play in 5...

I'll be away from late this afternoon until sunday evening...

Away from late this evening until monday april 9th in the evening...

Have fun

Away again...

This time from 31st May until 9th June, for a conference in Indianapolis. Let's just hope the weather is better this weekend then it was for the Indy 500...

Back again...
I saw a great lecture on intelligent design btw... [lol]

I also saw the friday edition of USA today at Dulles airport yesterday. The front page had a poll on it in which 39% of America claimed to be absolutely certain of creationism, whereas only 15% declared to be absolutely certain of evolution.... [eek]

You were surprised by this? :)

Only by the numbers, I already knew that creationists outnumber evolutionists in the US...
