Civ 5 mutliplayer GMR 14 On the Euro

[Illven]

Should I try uploading my turn?

[DodgerH2O]

I guess so as GnomishPride is gone so the AI would play regardless? Maybe redownload and then retake to be safe. I suspect that GMR may get glitchy when the players in the save file don't match what's on the website.

[Dada]

Re-invite sent to Gnomish Pride. I've verified that no skip limit is enabled. Not sure what else, if anything, to do.

[DodgerH2O]

Seems like that's all you can do. The last turn cycle appears to have worked alright.

[Narkis]

I've been failing to submit my turn for the past six hours. Time for another revert?

[DodgerH2O]

Knew I should've kept quiet! You should be able to revert your own turn?

[Narkis]

Right, I forgot you don't have to be the host. Reverted.

[Narkis]

Sorry folks, but I'll have to drop from this one. My free time has been sharply limited recently, and taking the turns on time has become a burden.

[Illven]

That means it's time for Sliverraptor to take over for Narkis.

The fluff. It's a coup!

[Narkis]

Heh. It was an inside job all along.

[The_Snark]

Kidding* aside, it would be nice if we could get a replacement Aztec player; they're one of the biggest empires right now, if not the biggest, and leaving them to the AI would seriously change how the rest of the game plays out. Any spectators feel like jumping in?

*if Silverraptor does want to take over that'd be great, actually

[DodgerH2O]

Unrelated (though it might help with time to replace the Aztecs). Due to the holiday and travel I'll be unable to take turns starting later this week and going probably until the new year. Could we temporarily disable the timer?

[Dada]

Turn timer removed, happy holidays!

Persia has accomplished its current goal of settlement on the Persian Sea. A worthwhile spot that we do not intend to use lies south of Ife and west-southwest of your lands. Two possible locations are available and our surveyors deduced a single city could have port access on the Sea as well as a source of Copper and Pearls. The City-States nearby may choose to expand any day now so we wished to make your people aware of the availability of this spot as a token of goodwill. It would also open up trade with our Cargo Ships which we would welcome.

[Silverraptor]

Alright, send me hostile takeover contract er- I mean player link.

[Dada]

Invite sent.

[Silverraptor]

After years of integrating into Aztec rule, the Iroquois had infiltrated enough of the governing structure that a violent coup occured, toppling the current Aztec Regime and replacing it with one that heavily favors the Iroquois citizens!

Aleph Complex appreciates your recommendations. Our council would kindly request a map of the potential sector you have described, as our troubleshooters seem to have overlooked the location you have directed us to.

[Silverraptor]

I'd like to inform you all that I will be forced from playing this game for an unforeseeable amount of time. My computer has a recently discovered defect that is still covered by Warranty and I'm sending it back for repairs. If you guys want to remove the timer until I get back to avoid any unplanned and unnecessary wars, that would be nice. Otherwise I'll just go into vacation mode.

[Dada]

I'm leaving the turn timer off for now, good luck .

[Silverraptor]

I'm leaving the turn timer off for now, good luck .

Thank you.

[GnomishPride]

Back from vacation, so I joined the game again! Yippee!

We notice you have a colonist moving north from Tlacopan. Empress Theodora requests that you not settle along the coast here, or anywhere else along this coastline. The body of water you are looking at is an inland sea: we have already developed most of its resources, and a port there would give you nothing except naval access to our port cities. Given recent history, we would prefer you not have that access. Please keep your settlements at a non-threatening distance.

I'm sorry. I may be leader of the Aztec people, but most of my life I was subjugated under Aztec rule as a Polynesian slave. Our masters didn't feel the need to educate us with the goings on and history of their brutality while we were under their thumb. It was one of the main reasons the violent coup of the Polynesian people has me at such a prestigious position over our form conquers. That said, to get back to my main point, what history is this?

Aha; it did not occur to us that you might be ignorant of these events. We speak of the invasion beginning here; since it seems any records the old Aztec rulers kept were lost in the revolution, we will provide an excerpt from our own:



You can see why we're not eager to have a potential Aztec stronghold on our doorstep, new regime or not. Tlacopan is fine. Any closer would make our generals uneasy. A port would be a direct threat.

That said, you and your government bear no responsibility for that war, so we'd be happy to point you towards potential city locations a bit farther from our lands. Your maps are probably better than ours in most areas, but we've explored most of the north - it's not terribly fertile land, for the most part, but there is open space and we're not planning to expand any time soon.

Ah. I'm sorry your people suffered so much from the Aztecs. At least your people fared better then mine, even though that was from such a loss of life. Yes, we would be happy if you could suggest an alternate location for our settler. We wouldn't want to get off on the wrong foot.

(PS. Sorry for the civilization confusion. I'm playing the Polynesians in another game and got confused with my previous post. I'll edit and fix it so its the proper Iroquois.)

[RayGallade]

Everything alright here? Do we need to start a turn timer up again?
