Give him ten days from your first e-mail then we find a replacement. Unless he is in the hospital there is no excuse. Even if your comp/connection crashes you can still use someones email. 70 turns in a year is bullshit

I suggest that from now on if we don't hear from someone within 38 hours of email we just replace them.

Flubber · October 16, 2002, 03:45

well my first email to him was on the 3rd of October and this is the 16th so are you saying get a replacement now ??

and 70 turns in a year is bull true but what is more concerning is the super-slow pace of the last couple of months-- unless people make more of an effort, this game could likely die

dinoarms · October 16, 2002, 06:47

Well then I reccomend giving the existing players 48 hours to express objections to SITS replacement. If there are none than post at the end of the of the 48 hours.

And yes this game is in danger of fading away. I sure hope it doesn't as I have put alot of time into it. As I'm sure have the rest of us.

KrysiasKrusader · October 17, 2002, 16:33

I'm in another game with SITS, and it is stalled also.

I've only played a few turns of this game, so I'm not as "attached" as those of you who have been here since the begining. Plus the faction that I took over is really at the bottom of the barrel, so to speak. The only reason I accepted this position is because it is absolutely hopeless, and I wanted to see what I could possibly manage, sort of a challenge for me any ways.

I will abide by whatever the rest of you decide.

Viriato · October 17, 2002, 17:55

I think we have given SITS enough time already. Let's find a replacement.

Flubber · October 17, 2002, 18:40

I have posted for a replacement-- who has the passwords for when we get one ??

ColDark · October 18, 2002, 07:39

Passwords. Hmmmmmm! That may be a difficult one. I was unable to contact the moderator (Misotu) when I needed a substitute, and I'm guessing she is the only one with the password.

ksev · October 18, 2002, 11:47

Hello guys....I´m ready to step in.

Send me the turn if you are interested, send me also a list over the E-mails...maybe it is in the begining of the thread and then I can find it my self.

I need a paasword I Guess......

REPLY if YOU are INTERESTED i USUALLY PLAY pretty fast turns

E-mail: kaare-margrethe@tdcadsl.dk

dinoarms · October 19, 2002, 18:20

I have posted mesages on CGN and Apolyton looking for Misoutu.

Ksev...yes we are interested.

Shiiiit where is she?

dinoarms · October 19, 2002, 21:52

Posted sits requesting his password

Flubber · October 29, 2002, 21:41

Given the recnt trouble finding misotu, might I suggest that we find another preson to hold passwords and provide them to the new modeartor

dinoarms · October 30, 2002, 00:35

Good idea Flub

Is anyone unaware that SITS has been in contact with us?

Flubber · October 30, 2002, 02:55

I am aware that he said he could play soon in his email about 8 days ago, but, whether he is replaced or continues, I think we should recruit someone who is actually around as a mod.

If we had a mod we could find, SITS would have been replaced long ago ( I am sympathetic that he had real life issues but online gamers generally can't wait around to figure out why someone disappeared).

The bigger question is whether all the other players are still around

Viriato · October 30, 2002, 19:44

I'm still here.

ColDark · November 3, 2002, 17:33

me too

Qantaga · November 4, 2002, 22:24

Hello everyone,

For various reasons (work, family needs, travel, etc), it is very difficult for me to get to Apolyton these days. However, I am still around and will play any turns that make their way to me. I can be reached directly by e-mail at: Qantaga@aol.com if anyone ever needs to contact me.

Flubber · November 5, 2002, 12:29

well thats 5 of us checked in recently and IIRC KKrusader is around as well-- so its more than enough to continue if we can either get SITS or SITS password into the picture

Flubber · November 5, 2002, 12:39

I sent Sits the an email today inquiring as to his status and askinmg that he forward his password to ksev if Sits is not able to continue

KrysiasKrusader · November 5, 2002, 17:00

I'm here...

half of my games have been stalled in the last two months or so. I feel that there is a general decline in the level of interest in SMAC...

ksev · November 6, 2002, 16:12

Status????????????

SITS · November 8, 2002, 13:41

Very sorry for the delay and I thank those who sent messages of support. I am ready to play again but I am willing to turn the game over to my replacement if people wish. Please let me know so I don't delay this game any further....

Flubber · November 8, 2002, 15:23

If you are ready and willing to play then I say play-- under the circumstances any replacement should be temporary until you could return IMHO-- the turn should be with you but I will resend it

I have the last turn as 2172 to you

so 2172 resent to sits

Flubber · November 8, 2002, 15:52

Notwithstanding SITS return, I think it would still be a good idea for us to preovide our passwords to a new CMN ( since Misotu is missing)--

Does anyone have any suggestions-- i would tend to ask someone around a lot like mongoose, smhfan but anyone who checks in here every few days would be fine

Mongoose · November 8, 2002, 15:55

No problem. I'll hold passwords if you like.

jlnader@mindspring.com

Flubber · November 8, 2002, 16:15

Hi mongoose

Do you search for your name of something or just read all the threads

I mean -- I did not even contact you and you respond to my post in 3 minutes

So gang -- I think everyone should send mongoose their password-- any objections ??

Mongoose · November 8, 2002, 16:21

I was checking out SITS' posts/games, actually. I feel bad about him losing so many games on account of RL trouble.

Similar thing happened to me a few years back.

SITS · November 9, 2002, 13:19

Turn 2172 to ColDark

Thanks all for your support and patience. I will send my password to Mongoose tomorrow when I get a chance to.

ColDark · November 10, 2002, 15:04

2172 to Krysias Krusader.

Welcome back SITS.

University Password has been emailed to Mongoose.

KrysiasKrusader · November 10, 2002, 23:58

2172 to Qantaga

Password sent to Mongoose

Mongoose · November 11, 2002, 06:58

PWs received from ColDark, KK, Q and Flubber.
