I'm kind of busy with something right now and its gonna take awhile.... so I don't think I'll be able to meet you guys at 8 EST. I'll try to be there by 8:30 but don't count on it.

thanks for wasting my time, when you grow up and don't have little tantrums cos people don't agree to your rules then I'll play with you again![]()
Lamprey said:I'm not sure how I was a bad host. Every time we rehosted "some1" would play a different country, even non-viable ones like S-P which's been half eaten by Austria, and never say anything. And diplo-deal with the OE. Meanwhile Talley's been fighting tooth & nail to allow tech trading while his OE now leads the world in tech advancement. In the end, both "some1" and Talley left together. Was "some1" Talley on another computer, feeding himself technology & cash? I suppose we'll never know. But I have to admit that I don't feel heartbroken over banning Talley from this game.

Lamprey said:Actually, it wasn't me who suggested that Talley cheated - it's not important who did - and it simply seemed like the most likely hypothesis after everyone else chimed in with their thoughts. As nobody has any proof we'll never know for sure. It might very well be that some1 never spoke during the game because he didn't speak English, and that he decided to play a wrecked S-P because he didn't know any better.
Only person I ever kicked was Talley for being stubborn, fact that some1 left without a word right after Talley came back and said his piece before leaving could very well have been a coincidence. Couldn't it?
As for people flocking to my games, I'd really love for a trend like that to develop, but this game is the first large MP game I ever hosted (EA is hosted by Raph) so I think it's too soon to tellStill, thanks for your endorsement of my connection/computer combo. I just got a cable modem installed today that's supposed to be 2-3x faster upstream, so here's hoping our next Friday session will have even less lag! (I'd appreciate if someone or a few someones would like to get together during the week and test it for lag.)
Anyway, we did have a fun session after Talley left, and I'm really looking forward to our next one. We've had 2 peaceful sessions so far, other than Russia/France battling rebels all over Prussia and Austria in the interest of keeping the damn liberals down, and I can't help but wonder when will a war break out - and between who? :rofl:
