Unfortunately, I missed my connecting flight due to delays and now I'm stuck in a hotel while waiting for an additional day to get back home (and to Civilization...). frown Though three other teams haven't played their turn as well.

All right guys, Team Dinosaurs have offered to play the turns for me while I'm away and in the future. I am also thinking about letting them take permanent control of Team EggHeads.

The reason for this is that my traveling has put me behind in my work, and I've got a much more brutal March in terms of travel. This means more time away from Civ, and also less time I have for my work. It's gotten to the point where I'm waking up at 9 AM and working or busy straight up until midnight with breaks of less than an hour (which is the time it takes for me to play a decent turn), and I simply do not have any time left over for Civ. Thus, in the near future --- or perhaps the rest of my life --- a solo Civ game is just not going to work for me. Even right now, I'm posting this when I should be in a meeting shortly.

If everyone is okay with this, I'm going to give Whiteye/Raptorous access to our team information and accounts, and they can play the turns for the rest of the game. They should honor all current requests (though I can't control that).

We should keep all teams separate. One team controlling two in-game civs gives an unfair advantage, and even if the team is able to keep the roles separated (which is very hard given human subjective nature) it brings a lot of suspicion etc to the other participants. If you need a sub, or someone to completely take over for you, then please ask someone outside the game. Even a spoiled lurker is better than one team controlling several civs.
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"
