And what attracted you to the MP forums today?
Did the muppet revolution have anything to do with it?

Well, I recently acquired MGE (I've had ToT for a while, but it seems that few play ToT here). Let's say I'm scouting here, looking for pearls of wisdom before I jump into MP.

Funny... that 'pearls of wisdom line' wasn't meant to be ironic.

And I have 300+ posts to go before I get my own avatar So yes, I suffer from Muppet envy

Indeed. I usually swarmed on the strategy/help forums but I think you can learn more on the game in this forum... that is also more funny

(mmm... I see that Dr Spike and War4Ever have adopted the "I'm the Greatest Player Strategy" --- the ultimate solution!)

STRAT - I backed you on your challenge to Ming because I thought you were right. Basically the way I saw it - he shot his mouth off about you - you challenged him and he backed down.

But now you've done the same thing to me and I guess all deity 1x1x players. You shot your mouth off and said you would beat me (and basically anybody) on my settings 2 out of 3. I took your challenge and you lost the first game. I am assuming there won't be a 2nd - even though I offered a 2x1x for the second instead of my settings.
I fully agree with this statement. Bad form Strat.

We should find kenthor and make him play a best out of 3 against Strat-bore

No one could match kenthor in microing each city added a minute to his turn

Speaking of that second settler, just a quick question for all you people: how long do you keep that unit around? For me, I like to not settle a second city with it, and make it my designated worker for my capital city and building connections between my capital and the subsequent cities I build...

p.s. I just recently got an mp version of civ 2 and I'm gonna be trying to get a game going with it sometime next week.

p.p.s. I am truly horrible at single player diety. I mean the computer is really whooping me bad. I can compete, and keep up, but there is no way I can match the way the computer advances. Any advice?

In a SP game, you can get away with not using that settler to create a city ASAP... But in MP, growth is exponential, so that settler should be used to create a city the second you find a half ass location for it.

If you want to try a little MP for practice, let me know. While I'm not the best... I'll walk you through the basics

Or if you find 50 gold in your first hut you can have the settler wonder around for a bit untill you have your third settler build.

Yeah Ming, I'm quite interested in getting started doing some MP… once I slay the dragon known as physics class...

p.s. Eyes, I've known far more initimdating muppets than you… Your words wash like water off a duck's back.

monolith94, let us know when you have finished slaying your physics dragon. Make sure you download the patch. And it's never a bad idea to test it with someone prior to comitting to a game. Nothing worse then having 4 people hot to trot to play and then have technical difficulties trying to start it up.

Icq for me, anytime. Fridays and Saturdays evenings, US central time, is the best for me.
