Per Gunjin's request, I've perused this group. It looks like you are all having a lot of fun. :) It would be nice to have the time to play another game, but I don't have a clue how anyone can work at a job without net access and still play empire. I guess I am too competetive to be able to set up a fodderous little country for people to munch on at their leisure. *smile* Maybe a game that had a maximum of 30 minutes of login time. Then again.. maybe not.. seems like dump * and making executable files would be the order of the day. Reminds me of my first game when JustUs told me how to make announcements and telegrams while outside of the game and then executing them in no time at all when you login. Yeah, I guess that is what meant the most to me in empire... the gazillion telegrams. Many people sing the praises of the announcement, but many good friendships were forged when countless telegrams were sent back and forth. It was really cool to have a bunch of friends around when stuck in some forsaken place over a holiday. I only seem to read news around once a month or maybe every other month, so I am not really up on what is going on. I'm spending time playing one-update-a-day conquer with friends. Having all of the action occur at the updates is a definite advantage to those who can't devote the time and energy to a game of empire. Albania, Dreamlands, Gunjin, and Resvon have been playing too. There is still the opportunity to plot out strategies, debate different methods, experiment with driving trucks through some of the code's gaping holes, etc. We've been having a lot of fun.. well, Brett got squished due to going on one of his hedonistic binges.. but the rest of us have fared pretty well. :) If anyone is interested, we can probably let some more people in for the next game (maybe a month or so?). May your icbm 2 with 5mt warhead never fail to launch... Creight Lersing
