Setting up IP Games XXVIII

rah · May 29, 2001, 09:01

Well volume XXVII was getting full and there was a little lull, so it's time to start a new one.

It was a fun holiday CIV weekend, thanks to all that participated.

But we must always look forward.

This Friday, (for the first time in a long time) I will be going to the RIVER BOAT to find a HOT Craps table.

If we decide not to go, I will post here. But don't count on us.

But I will be looking to play Saturday.

Thanks for starting a new one... Now I won't be getting email responses whenever any body posts.

(remember to change those default settings in your control panel)

War4ever · May 29, 2001, 10:16

yes thank god for that..... btw Ming does this mean you will be free on your OWN machine friday nights?

Could we go back to playing on Wed nights so that we could incorporate your twin in our games? For now tuesdays still work but i miss the good ol days....

Anyways i will be home around 6 pm central tonite looking for heads to roll.........

rah · May 29, 2001, 10:28

Hopefully we'll be taking Mingy with us.

Wednesdays might work, just not this week. (after a FULL weekend of civ, I don't want to push my luck with the family)

Rich

Ming · May 29, 2001, 10:36

Tuesdays are far better for me know. Once we fell out of the Wednesday night habit, my wife now thinks I'm available that night. Since she has a regular doctor's appointment that runs late on Tuesdays, she "expects" me to play on that night. So if we want to set up a regular weeknight game, please consider Tuesdays vs Wednesdays.

Thank you

rah · May 29, 2001, 11:00

Unfortunately, on Tuesdays, I have golf league after work. And since I've been known to sometime Drink on the golf course and after, I doubt i'd be able to provide any compitition.

I tend to nap afterwards. (polite way of saying.... fall into a coma)

rah · May 30, 2001, 15:25

Yes, we are finalizing plans for Friday's gambling adventure.
So, it looks like we won't be around to play. (unless we get our asses kicked so hard in the first few hours that we give up)

But Saturday is still open.

Rich
I am not taking the ferrets along.

Hydey · May 30, 2001, 18:10

Fear stikes at the riverboat as the await the arrival of Bill and Ben the flower pot men

Everyone will be ready to play as you both lose a months wages in the first half hour but then if you win $100 Billion you can share some with us

Zylka · May 30, 2001, 18:42

DAR DAR ME PLAY

Saturday night is about the only time I can play this week, and I'd like it to be with good players

. Do keep in touch

Cheers

War4ever · May 30, 2001, 19:46

i guess i will go clubbing then on Friday and play civ Saturday......

oh well its nice to know early so i can make plans

rah · May 30, 2001, 20:38

That's why I wanted to mention it early.

RAH
Of course I can see it now, lose our money early, and being on-line going..."where is everyone"

And Hydey, it would take be quite a while to drop a month's salary at a 10 dollar crap table.
Of course I wouldn't be stupid enough to bring that much money to drop.

War4ever · May 30, 2001, 21:14

make sure you drop a civ win on the table and let me know how it turns out

Zylka · May 30, 2001, 22:32

Why won't my picture work?

Baron O · May 31, 2001, 01:04

hydey, war4ever,berzerk, any other craziods out there. how about a game friday night west coast usa and canada.6:00pm and 10:00 am melbourne time. take a chance to play without rah. see if i learned anything last weekend

Hydey · May 31, 2001, 07:05

10 am Saturday, hmmm better have sex early so I can get out of bed for civ duties

We better put an AI in for Rah to use when his money runs out early or will he go to the dreaded ATM.

Baron O · May 31, 2001, 21:51

SmartFart · June 1, 2001, 10:32

Got one spot for me? Or you guys continuing some game?

rah · June 1, 2001, 10:55

Geeze, the first friday in months that I can't play, everyone else wants to

I almost regret going to the river boat.
NAWWWWWW.

Good luck guys. I'll be thinking of you while I'm screaming "7 come 11" or "hit that hard 8 you bastard."

There's always tomorrow.

Rich

deity · June 1, 2001, 20:04

... in a rush
Sat morning here in Aussie.

I'll be back within 2 hours if any new games are starting around then... pref 1x1x simul till 1AD with turnbased war?

SmartFart · June 2, 2001, 02:15

Sorry about crappy connection,usually is fine but I've noticed something is weird today since I had to dial my provider 5-6x before i finally managed to connect.

Good game so far. Very balanced. I am 90% sure I'll be available tomorrow same time.

Hydey · June 2, 2001, 06:14

Sorry I could not make it this morning, family needed my time

Bird · June 2, 2001, 10:24

I'll be looking tonight. Hopefully rah didn't have to pawn his computer.

Baron O · June 2, 2001, 16:03

rah
hope u were a big winner

am up for a game tonite, did ok at expanding last nite but smartfart was the big expander. if he joins tonite i hope his gremlins found a new home

Epik · June 2, 2001, 17:26

What time are you guys gonna play tonight?

Bird · June 2, 2001, 18:42

Usually sometime between 8 and 9 Eastern. Preferably closer to 8

rah · June 8, 2001, 10:26

Well the weekend is upon us again.

Due to Ming playing in a golf outing this afternoon, I will not be able to show up at his house till around 8 central, so don't worry if i'm not on-line earlier.

Please post if you have interest.
After the last few weeks of SLOW play, I'd like to limit the game to 4 players.

Rich

War4ever · June 8, 2001, 10:37

Well i am here to inform you lads early that my army is unable to show for our schedualed warfare. It seems as if some of the men are complaining of shin splints, thus making marching to the battle point a near impossibility.

The soup kitchen has also been stolen therefore the troops will go hungry and we as an army have democratically decided to postpone further aggressive behaviour until next week

Unless of course anyone is around on Sunday when the rig drops off new boots and the cook waddles his bag of utensils up to the front where they can be of some use.

Well i will be home later to see how the game goes..... have fun lads and may the force/Ferrets be with you

Bird · June 8, 2001, 11:17

As usual, I can't play tonight, but I'll be looking tomorrow (Saturday) night. Wonder what it would be like to continue a game??????
