b.t.w. pyramids suck.

SlowwHand · July 29, 2002, 11:34

Pyramids, especially in Eyes love of 2X, do truly suck.

BTW Eyes. I thought your favorite advance was Seafaring.
You go at it hard enough to have Explorers running amuck by 3400 B.C.

Hi Woke.
They sucks only on archipelago if you start on Eastern Island. But on such maps everything sucks except LH.

No I don't have anything but ICQ# and it is listed in my profile. Unfortunately,every time I tried to start a game w/ you I faced an unplayable lag. Are you behind some nasty firewall?
However,I am eager to give it another shot. How about now?

Caesar the Great · July 29, 2002, 11:38

hmm... i think its time for me to whip this out again...

...and i believe everyone will agree with me

@ Caesar and Ming.

SmartFart · July 29, 2002, 11:59

Ming my friend

You don't mind Eyes *****ing around,but when somebody else respond in foul language you're selling the trip tickets.

Is that something exclusively allowed to him? If so,it should be printed on front page, This way people got wrong ideas. I know I did once.

Take care.

Ming · July 29, 2002, 12:22

The "chill" was meant for EVERYBODY... The finger response just got me off my butt

War4ever · July 29, 2002, 19:16

snicker.....that was a riot..both of you

HappySunShine · July 29, 2002, 19:26

Ok smart, if you insist on such stupidity so be it. I will take HG and you can have pyramids. This should be amusing. Talk to Oedo and Woke before you accept this though. They'll probably have some very good words of encouragement for you.

Species8472 · July 30, 2002, 11:26

Eyes, when shall we play a game? You have HG, i have lighthouse, the rest is open.

DrSpike · July 30, 2002, 11:38

If people are going to play games with some pre-arranged deal on wonders I think there should be a date after which your option to build expires. If I were to play a game knowing I would get HG I wouldn't beeline for it, but for other wonders that might still be in contention. Let's face it you don't really need HG or lighthouse when they usually get built, you just want to make sure you get your wonder of choice.

War4ever · July 30, 2002, 21:24

yes....agreeing on what wonders each person gets is somewhat weird to me

Species8472 · July 31, 2002, 09:49

Dont get me wrong. i prefer games where all is open. but certain individuals just can not play without certain wonders. To open possibilities for games with these individuals, you have to make arrangements.

arii · July 31, 2002, 13:07

I'm sure that eyes is using the HG in deity for his favorite strat: build a billion cities. All you have to do is wait that the HG is negated and is civ will be in constant rebellion.

arii · July 31, 2002, 13:09

Although I'm sure that by the time you would be close to negate the HG eyes will not be able to continue the game for 1 reason or another.

HappySunShine · July 31, 2002, 17:05

By that time you will be dead. But of course you are in the same crowd as markus and the others and therefore are a moron. I can't help it you people are too stupid to realize that 40 size 3 cities is better than 5 size 20 cities. You can't expand so you play on deity, I understand. It's kind of like in age of empires 2. All the rookies put the difficulty on hardest so that there are a zillion wolves on the map. Does this add to gameplay? No, just makes it so that it slows down people from expanding and keeps them from forward building as easily. Same principle applies to civ2. Deity was created for single player as a means to slow down the human player without slowing down the AI. It was never meant as a multiplayer level. Super high unhappiness and massive amounts of barbarians do nothing to add to the game other than to slow it down and add more outside influences. In my game against Oedo all I did was build cities and improvements and improve my terrain. Is this somehow a sign of skill? Is this somehow a challenge to you people? What could I not have done against the AI that I did against Oedo? There was absolutely no human interaction until after AD. But again, this has been this way for years and it's this way in all games. There will always be the lesser players who enjoy the outside influences that allow them to compete with higher players or at least have some chance at it.

rah · July 31, 2002, 17:23

Ok, people, would anybody here prefer 5 cities to 40?

*pause*
*pause*

I didn't think so.

Try a different relevant argument sunshine.

Raging may minutely slow down expansion but it no way stops you from expanding, Unless you're brain dead, so please stop repeating that one too.

AND finally, If YOU can't expand on Deity, then you should look in a mirror if you're looking to make fun of someone. You seem to be the only that claims that you can't.

A broken record this one is.

Geeze.

RAH

And before you say it. Yes you can build a bit faster on the lower levels (newbie levels), but it's not that different. You can still comfortably cover the map, it just takes a tad bit longer.

atawa · July 31, 2002, 17:28

Still I have to agree with Eyes that HG is way too powerfull on Deity, same with LH on an island map.

With HG in a duel chances are you'll be able to build SOL so I realy dont see the problem.

HappySunShine · July 31, 2002, 18:30

Who the **** are you to talk to me rah? Did you not look at that save? You who plays on a 35X35 all mountain map and builds maybe 10 cities in game as you cover the mountains with cities. Yes, you are truly a great player. You're not even in my ****ing league so you should just shut your mouth. Unless of course you'd like to challenge me to a deity game? That will never happen though since you play 35X35 maps. And why the **** are you even on this discussion since you don't even play 1x1x? I play all the settings, you play just one. So until that changes, sit back and shut the **** up.

rah · July 31, 2002, 19:05

Where do you make this crap up from. I can't remember the last time I played on 35X35. "Maybe 10 cities", what a joke. I do play 1x1x but not regularly because I FIND IT BORING. Considering that you've never been in a single game that I've been in, or seen a save of one, you're the one that has no f***ing clue what he's talking about. But that's par for the course for you, so I shouldn't be surprised.

War4ever · July 31, 2002, 19:42

Rah doesn't build only 10 cities...more like 20+ in almost all games!

Ming · July 31, 2002, 20:39

Hmmm... I have to agree. If you can't expand at Deity without a happiness wonder, you must not know how to play at deity. I have no problems building 25 plus cities on super small maps. I'd build more, but eventually you run out of room and the only way to get more is to take them from somebody else.

And also eyes... you need to tone down the "personal" insults. They aren't allowed. Remember, you can talk about people's strategies, but if you call people morons again, you will have to create a DL to post again

HappySunShine · July 31, 2002, 20:48

I already have other DL's waiting to be used. GIving me a break is like inviting a zillion DL's. Take your choice. And I've been in games with you, Rah, and War4. I pretended to be some guy on apolyton that was new and we talked over ICQ. It was really funny because war and rah were talking like they were the real deal. It was on a 40X40 map or so. I remember it well. No bribe, lots of mountains, lots of swamp.

markusf · July 31, 2002, 21:16

eyes sounds more and more like stratking every day, he needs all these special conditions + maps to even play. And if anyone gets a wonder he doesn't like he just quits

HappySunShine · July 31, 2002, 21:24

Oh give me a ****ing break. I don't use special maps number 1, number 2 the only reason I'm playing deity is to prove that deity comes down to whoever gest HG first. I can't help it I've beaten you on every single setting there is. I can't help it you suck. I can't help it you couldn't beat me when I had no capital and you had both suntzu and lighthouse. It's not fault you're stupid so don't get mad at me.

markusf · July 31, 2002, 21:27

fault memory yet again, i beat you ass on every deity game we ever played. Face it you suck
