Looking for a new game
All,

I've been away for a while... they're a few here that I recognize, but I don't know if they remember me.

Anyway, I'm looking to another civ II MP fix. If you're interested in a game post here. A 4-7 person game would be great, but I'd settle for 1 or 2 opponents.

I suggest weekly sessions (any evening should be fine with me except Saturday) for a few hours.
1x1x
no bribing cities

I'm open to anything else.

Please post here if you're interested.

Thanks

I would like to join your group to play multi-player games. I've only done it twice, so I'm basically a newbie. If you're willing to put up with that, it would be great! I'm in the pacific time zone, but time isn't much of an issue with me. Fridays are also good for me. thanks!

yeah, Rasp,

we used to start friday, but since I seem to be the last one that still has the intention to.......
And since my vacation is coming too soon now to start a new diplo game I'll wait until August late.

CyberShy, Mooniegal,

Fridays should work at least for a few weeks here.
So, what about the other specs?
Such as Difficulty level, barbs, etc. Any suggestions?

And... Who's gonna host? I've only got a 56K connection, so if anyone else is faster they can host.

Also, is there anyone else interested?

So, how does this Friday at 7 or 8 Central look?

Let me know.

Well as for difficulty, I hate to be a a loser and say I'd prefer easy, just because I am very new to all of this, however, I am willing to go a bit on a more difficult level. It'll teach me a lesson ^^ I'm really quite flexible about such things. I really have no idea about barbs, etc. I'll just go with whatever you want and see how it works.
I can't host I have a worse connection than you do. However, if we keep this going frequently, I will be getting a better connection when I go back to school in August. There will be about two weeks when I won't be able to play because of having no computer, actually.
Friday around 7 or 8 your time works well for me. I'm also flexible for other days if it ends up that way. ^^

Thanks a lot!

I'm interested. I, too, have been away for a while. I, too, am looking for an MP fix. I am on PST, and I can host because I HAVE DSL!!! Rules sound okay, what about map?
Keep me posted!

Alright,

OK, you're in Potsy. Does 7 or 8 Central, (5 or 6 your time) work?

As for rules...

How about
1x1x
no bribing cities
King difficulty
Medium sized random map
Barbs: Raging Hordes???

Did I miss anything....

Also...
We're gonna need some way to communicate. ICQ or perhaps AOL IM (my fav.)
Let me know what you want to use.

And let me know if this Friday works.

We can just use the forums. Let's say 7pm CST, that's 5pm PST. I will post my IP here and be on at that time. You guys all connect, and we go.
Good?

I might be interested. Why dont we just meet in the zone. That way everyone can chat.
P.S. Mooniegal i tried to add you to my Yahoo list and it said your name "Noellesan" was not valid. Mine is bob_wland_2000. Add me to your friends list then you can IM when u are online if u want to play. Also as I said above msn gaming zone is a good place to get a game if u are willing to put up with some of the "inconsistancies"

Potsy,

Go ahead and post your IP tomorrow in these forums.


Deity Dude,

You're welcome to join us if you want. The game starts at 7 PM Central US time Friday night. We'll be playing Friday nights until we decide otherwise. Don't know about the zone... Would probably just be easier to watch this thread and pick up Potsy's IP number. After that, we can all talk in the game.

P.S.... be sure to set it so we can talk before contact Potsy.

Alright.
See you all tomorrow.

Diety Dude: I have added you. Sorry, I missed an underscore. It's actually Noelle_san. Oops...

Everyone else: I think I may have some issues today. *sighs* My connection is sucking it up hardcore. I really hope that it works out. Just thought I'd give a warnin'.
Thanks!

Diety Dude, The game said we lost connection, but we could see you typing. The game only advanced one turn since the time you left. We are waiting for you.

Deity Dude,

The game's still running. We could read your messages... but we couldn't send any to you... Anyway... try reconnecting at the same IP. We're waiting for you.

Looks like my ICQ is giving me problems... Could be because I don't have the new 2000 (or whatever) version... Says my password is incorrect...

Anyway, I got the same message that Deity Dude got... saying that I lost connection. Sounds like a problem with your game. You'll have to close it down and start it back up most likely.

I'll keep trying ICQ...

I think if you guys wanna do this again we should meet in the zone or some other real-time chatroom so if we have a problem we can talk about it.
