What did you do while 'poly was down?
I hung out at CGN for while and also at MZO (Master Zen Online), which was the unofficial refugee camp for the Civ3 community. In our boredom we started up a Succession Game, which should be good fun.

If I hadn't been at work I may well have done lots of fun social things .. or maybe not. I did go to the pub with four girls on Tuesday night, though. (naughty smily)

What's you story?

Instead of sitting on 'poly all night I watched some Champions League and drank too much beer. I was dead bored at work though - I posted a bit in the refugee camp, but it was all too confusing. And I visited MZO, but everyone was talking about civ

I got caught up on reading Red Mars for the Poly Sci-Fi Book Club discussion next month.

And I played some Princess Maker II.

Sidenote: smilies work now.

In fact, since my bed is a loft bed, I do that all the time.

Went on #apolyton, hung five at CGN, messed around a bit at IFX, messed around at http://www.eventis.tk

Watched Juventus duke it out in the champions league, played some Gran Turismo 3.

I wasn't affected at all, truth be told.

I worked and watched the snooker, whilst refreshing my browser every now and again on the off chance 'Poly was back.

Six minutes and thirty seconds...it's easy to miss

You can find a low-quality stream of the 147 here

The 147 was great, but what I found utterly amazing was Alan McManus' incredible fluke on the brown.

A Dutchman watching snooker? Is there any sport you don't like Zopper?

Thanks for the links, btw.

I've been watching the Embassy since 1990. I was seven years old when Stephen Hendry won it then...
And there's a Dutch referee

There are sports that I don't like...curling, bowls, horse racing, athletics in general, most winter sports...and undoubtedly more...

Yes.......though it was no doubt poor consolation for being knocked out.

McManus's brown was awesome..........right up there with Ebdon's miscue/jump pair of flukes a couple of years back.

I posted a bit on CGN, tried to register at eventis.tk (it didn't work yet, Frozzy ) and posted at Civfanatics (why, oh why?)... and got a copy of Master of Orion that I haven't installed yet.

Watched the hockey games, but then I already do that even when Apolyton is on.

So mostly just worked and studied.
