I don't believe I'm familiar with that thread, BGN.
I'm just doing my best out here.

Besides, the history of this game has already been written. Check out the pb/pbem chronicle thread. wink To whoever wrote the pb18 "history": bowrolfhatsoff

Another game I like to play, DCSS, has an annual tournament. The tournament of course is decided by winning games consistently and quickly, but it also has a "side-quest" type of thing where you can earn banners (little flags to put in a forum signature to brag or whatever) for doing crazy-stunts in game. For example, win two games with a 24 hour period, win in under 50k turns, somehow managing to kill two boss monsters within a single turn, etc.

Anyways, I keep thinking this game needs to have banners, or at the very least this specific banner, that we could put in our sigs: lol

Descent into Madness I: Played a PB18 turn where Parkin controlled two of my adjacent neighbor civs.
Descent into Madness II: Played a PB18 turn where Parkin controlled every single one of my adjacent neighbor civs.
Descent into Madness III: Played a PB18 turn where Parkin controlled my war ally, my war enemy, and managed to accidentally double-move himself.

That's funny but I don't think we should encourage any more Parkin turns than he has to already endure. As for your Madness flags, I definitely have achieved level one (ooh, achievement unlocked, free Steam Points, Direct IP now included!!) and have an outside shot at level two one of these days. But level three is really the only possible victory condition for this game. smile

Apologies to whoever bounced off me, I'm out now.

I'm claiming Madness II as on T64 I have a EP screenshot that is wall to wall Parkin.
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

Hey that isn't fair. What if you have neighbors who never miss their turns? You'll never have a chance to earn an achievement because of the distinct lack of nearby Parkinization!

3 & 4 seems to encourage killing all miscreants.
