SKIP ARNY"S TURN!!!!!!!!!

Death to babylon!

Arnelos · January 13, 2004, 17:26

Is this game patched now or not? I'm in about 5 different C3C pbems and all of them seem to have different patch levels or such. It's infuriating, I tell you.

So is this game patched and at what turn is it patched?

(It would be so much simpler if Firaxis/Atari would just put out one damn official patch rather than this beta b.s. and everyone just upgraded all at the same time...)

At this point I'm willing to take the risk if the Babylonians would just play the blinkin turn!

Rhothaerill · January 13, 2004, 17:54

AFAIK it has been patched to 1.12. That is what I used my last turn anyway.

Arnelos · January 13, 2004, 19:28

Ok, I tried to quit the game and resign my position, but the people came to me and said in a very persuasive tone "Please don't go. We need you. We look up to you." So moved was I by this expression by the people of the jungle that I decided to stay for just one more turn(tm).

That's it. Its time to kill his people.

NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!

Romans feed God King to the lions!

After he delayed the games at the New Colloseum we just built, again and just about every time it was his turn!

The lions knawed at him for a while but then decided he just didn't taste that good. So we are looking for others to feed the hungry lions and delay specialists will top the list......

Have fun!

make sure the Doc warms up the penicillian before you get your shots next week!

GodKing · January 18, 2004, 10:58

Arny - please send it to my work address - the one I email you already and will soon email it to you again. I don't get the opportunity to check this address except on the weekends. It just sat there since tuesday. Sorry guys.

Turn 4 on to gf.

Beta, look to your NE, on top of the mountain with gold. See my scout. It can just see your border. So, want to trade anything? Horses, I have 2 extra. How about an extra iron? Have one of those. Anything?

Horses? Iron? Bah.

Nubile women.

Beer.

When I have to go back THREE PAGES to the last time I posted that I sent the save on to the next player and it was FOUR MONTHS ago something is DEFINITELY wrong.

The Babylonians are too slow. The Barbarian camps have already started researching Industrialization and we're still trying to get to Writing.

Sent to conmcb25.

A small Babylonian boy scralls the following words on the side of the Roman palace:

Yeah... with our jungle homeland and the accompanying problems, we have priorities other than quality education right now, too.

Don't get your hopes up we gotta go past Babylon again and that should take at least a week or two.

As I said, the condition of our education system is truly deplorable. In this case, I think it's that the use of "hte" rather than "the" has somehow become hip.

No matter, however, as this will simply give us more cannon fodder to throw at the Egyptians, the first civilization slated to be destroyed in the "Kill All Civilizations that are not Korean" dictate by Darekill.

Darekill · January 22, 2004, 01:45

Guess what I found in my inbox today?
Guess what is on hte way.
Guess whitch civilization the disguised egytian koreans will kill first

Ha ich werde euch alle Auslöschen, alle! Na, ja zumindest wenn ihr das zulasst....

Wow, although I had to look up Auslöschen, I actually understood that. I still suck at German, though.

The Brothers of Zeta Xi are thrilled to announce that our roving band of party seekers has determined that, as of yet, there are no other parties out there. This is good news because it means we can spread our gospel of kegs and a**-kickin' unhindered. If you would like a missionary of Zeta Xi to head over and help your civ learn to rock, please send a detailed map.

Yes, our apologies. It seems that our Minister of Information now suffers from the |337 disease as well. He has been fired, followed by a brutal execution for the enjoyment of the local community. It is hoped by the Babylonian Ministry of Correctness that this should set an example for the people to follow.

It is thought that the scrawling of graffiti at the entrace of the ministry reading "j00 \/\/1|| f4||, \/\/3 \/\/1|| r0x0r2 j00!" is a discouraging sign, however. The ministry spokesman later commented to state-run media that "We will wipe out this insidious plague that afflicts our children and will show no mercy toward those who are responsible."

Once again, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs offers its sincere apologies to the world community for this travesty.

Save on toGF
My appologies to someone with yellow, but it appears that my army is about to enter your territory and take a city. However, let it be known that our other neighbor, the wandering dutch, are closer to you than I am so that you may take your revenge on them.

Sir Beta of the dutch, be ware that screaming yellow barbarian hoards may soon be coming in your direction, yet I have no idea why. I will, however, send to you some samples of our quality beer, wine, and serving women. Oh ya, and pretzils too. And here is one complimentary bobble head of Steve Yzerman. Enjoy.

My internet is down so I will have to play the save Monday night when I can get internet access again.

conmcb25 · January 24, 2004, 00:50

Well then piss on it Im just going to quit!

What the heck is the point of a Balderdash PBEM anyway.

Its just playing with a bunch of illiterate GoofBalls!

Rhothaerill · January 24, 2004, 05:14

The German nation regrets to inform the world that the save is moving too quickly now. Slow it back down to one turn every two weeks like it was in the days of yore (50 or so years ago) or you will regret it!

Darekill · January 24, 2004, 09:51
