Wait, are you kidding me? I enter specifically to pause the game for Xenu, then he let the turn roll? For some reason I found that very funny.
I wonder wasn't a rule about don't be a dick somewhere contemplate
Anyway we can just keep playing I guess.

It seems like a miscommunication to me, not anything malicious. If you'd prefer a reload I'd be fine with it.

No reload. I played and didn't pause because I'm tired of retep camping the timer every turn. If you have time to log in and pause the game (without anyone requesting it!) you could have played your turn. Forcing a turn spilt is idiotic and I'm tired of your clock shenanigans. No reload is my position. You had every opportunity to play. You don't have to play last and first every turn.

I'm inclined to agree with Xenu

Honestly I don't care either way, and I see shoulda's on both sides. Waiting to be the last to play when you have the chance to play earlier is bad manners and I have a hard time seeing why anyone needs a sustained turn split in peacetime this late in the game. And if planning to attack just do it.

On the other hand Retep's been good about playing within the timer so far (last 230+ turns) so maybe he gets the benefit of the doubt here, since not playing a turn sets him back. With warning, in the future if the turn's going to roll and you've said nothing in this thread, we're just going to let it roll and keep playing?

If we're going to keep playing this I want the game to be on the Civ board and not with emotional drama, is that crazy?

Xenu are you angry at me? I don't get why?
Just to clarify some things.

-I have not ask for a reload.
- This is the order of last to play for the last 6 turns.

1. Xenu, Retep miss his turn
2. Retep (little problem with the internet)
3. Molach
4. Suttree
5. Suttree
6. Retep

How exactly I'm camping the turn? The only thing that all those turns have in common is that I played after you in all of then.
Which exactly the same thing that I did when I declare war at you the first time. Make a turn split 9 turn before to avoid complications.
Believe me Xenu if you were like WilliamLP that play first almost every turn then you would see me playing second and my life would be much easier. Yes they may some benefits to playing after the rest but is not worth my time.
I just fail to see how is this inconvenient for you? I mean you can play at whatever time you want even take all the timer if you need it, I just want to play after you to make sure I won't double move you. To be honest I tough I was making us a favor, taking into consideration when you normally play and when I can play then if I play before you it would definitive be more pauses or some double moves.
By now you probably guess that I'm going to attack you, no secret since you can see the power graph in-game. I was three turns away to hit you, yet now I feel like just hitting enter to the end of his game. Hey maybe I just do that, I can play a game that is fun, I can play a game that is boring but I don't want to play a game where people will get randomly angry at me.

To be clear, you're allowed to declare war if you play first, and played first the previous turn too. You can easily do this without a hostile double move. Or even, declare second after playing first the turn before. And a peacetime double move, if necessary, is fine. So I don't see why you need to play second every turn.

But please, no more spoiler info in here.

It isn't for me to make this offer since I'm not a contender, but if you guys don't want to play this out we could call a draw among the leaders and be done with this. I'm not trying to hurt feelings or make people angry, I'm just saying what I see and stating my opinion.

I'm not sure what to do about that spoiler info, Retep. Since you gave it away I'd be within my rights to log back in and whip every city for units and bleed you dry, but I'm not having enough fun with this game to do it and I'm not sure if it's fair to act on information you've rashly given away. Yes, everyone can see power graphs, but no one knows your intent without reading your spoiler thread. Anyway, I'm just putting this out for a vote, to concede, call a draw among the leaders, whatever. Suttree, up to you what you want to do with the turn when you play, pause, roll the turn, I guess it doesn't matter.

If I don't get to use my 30 axeman army and the next 10 not-so-funny naming schemes I've been workshopping, I'll be sorely disappointed.

(I still think I'm too irrelevant to have a vote on this)

I'll reiterate that I'm happy to continue playing, but if continuing on is unduly burdensome or is depressing for others, I'm open to alternatives.

Maybe we should take a day to let the steam from today and this turn to blow over and let people think about it.
