First reply reserved for my next rant against something stupid or condescending Sommer says.

It's not so much the content, I don't even mind CFC being 2nd last. It's the Super Friendly Advice that shits me.

Yep. Super Friendly Advice. All the way...

Sommerswerd, I can't post over on CFC because apparently that is against our foreign policy, but this is what I would write to you if I could:

Spoiler this is only for my bud SOmmerswerd
Thank you Sommy!! That is such a good idea. I had previously resigned myself to suspending all other game-playing activity for the 2-3 years I'm expecting this game to take. But it doesn't have to be! cool Signing up for game number two right now. dancing dancing

Seriously though, can we open up a ranting thread or something? This isn't technically productive; we don't need to hear about one annoying dude's out of game posts mixed in with useful stuff like the diplo thread.

lol

12 hours left on the timer, and only three teams has ended their turns?!?

Is the timer supposed to be 44 hours or 48 hours? It was stated that it was changed to 44, but CivStats says 48.

Is the difference because of the difference between the length of an in-game hour and a real hour?

Since there's no water cooler thread to post at to talk about OT things for the game, can we sticky the C&D roster and would it be possible if someone has time to link correspondence by team to the OP of the Diplo Tracker?

Thanks!
