[SPOILERS]The Tyrant realizes that once the world burns it gets really boring....

Yeah he'd have as much luck capturing the city with a bear as a worker, but apparently we can't be too hasty in what we rule out. And today I'm going to try using the word "unorthodox" instead of "retarded" to describe the choices because I'm such a nice person. Damn, did I use retarded when I wrote that sentence? It's just a slip, an unorthodox break in my normally pleasant demanor.

I'm not sure you want to call it a retarded break in your demeanor.

What I don't get is why, after all this (including the double move event), why Halvgud logged in during the middle of our playing window. I don't think he moved anything while he was in there but when you're already in hot water it's a good idea to stay above any hint of impropriety. It isn't like he wouldn't get to see how we reacted soon anyway, we were the only ones left to play.

I expected a NH post, I just thought it would be about the worker capturing a city (clearly used hyperbolically), not about my choice of euphemism. Oh well, your larger point is correct, it is retarded to be nice to people, there's no need for it! To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. So call a spade a spade, a duck a duck, a fool a fool, etc....

I haven't looked in on PB14 at all, other than to hear some minor quibbling in the lurker thread about this or that before the game started. I have no map knowledge and I'm not sure if it has been revealed or not. Once the map has been figured out, can someone point me in the direction of the team neighboring Halvgud's team so I can steer that team in the direction of wrecking his game?

Good play like this deserves its thanks in other games, I think.

Rego double: We're pulling away in #posts and catching up in #views. The only win that matters, threadcount/views!

Do you lurkers have any suggestions for threads that I should visit for a good example of repelling a similarly obnoxious invasion under similar circumstances? The tactics of how to repel the invaders are fairly straightforward, cats and hitters, and play for time until we get our stack to eviscerate his. I think I'm just looking for a guide to role model how annoyed I should really be. I'm right to be annoyed. Right? I mean, this shit makes no sense.

That smiley makes no sense. Is it a burning pumpkin?

Also, you're an amateur. When you're talking about a Rego double why would you split a single post into two parts? Clearly Rego would have had two separate posts for that, and you would have had a Rego triple post. I don't think Rego even counts doubles, they're a dime a dozen, like missed Dwight Howard free throws.

Also, Kuro -- give up now. We're 47 views behind you and never looking back. Next up, the setup thread.

If you mouse over the smiley, it's the : psychotic : one. You can probably figure why I'd use that one.

Did we ever get a verdict on whether Sisub had definitively double moved the settler to get it to the galley? If so, I'd like him to sit a 1t penalty before being allowed to settle his city, in the hopes that Retep could raze the damned city and get rid of him.

[spacetyrantxenu]

I moused over and saw it was psychotic, it just looked like a burning pumpkin. Maybe this would have been the right expression?

[novice]

can you do me a favor and post the diplomatic advisor? I want to see all the different wars at once

Dammit, this again....I logged in, couldn't connect all the way and was disconnected. Tried logging in again, made it all the way in, pressed F4 to grab the diplomatic screen and....crash to desktop.
