Grizzley's Civ League Classic 2012

[MultiPlayaBeast]

MultiPlayaBeast vs Mawpawk

Game 1: Multi=French and Mawpawk=Russians

I pick up a friendly and settle 5 spots away from Americans. Mawpawk already was sensing things being bad but played along anyway. He settles where I settled and I had a warrior going that way. He gets a warrior in his cap in time before my warrior could go for his cap but he attacks me and loses.
MultiPlayaBeast Wins!

Game 2: Vice Versa

I walk and pick up friendly and spot AW. I get 50g from first barb and they tell me where Chinese are at and I send warrior over there to attack off hill next to them. I take Beijing and get my 100g shortly. Afterwards I run into a militia by Mawpawk(normal Mawpawk) and its starting to scout my area. I figure a attack is soon to come so I get some horses together. Then out of the blue is a HA. I grab AW in a nick of time for GW. I forgot to mention Mawpawk took out the English and had monarchy. He goes off elsewhere and my HA follows discretely behind.

Mawpawk starts attacking the Germans and he gets injured so I slide on in for the kill in which the HA dies and bring another HA over to seal taking over Berlin. I then make a boat and put both vet HA on it to find his caps. I find London wide open and take. He uses a horse to try and get it back but it lost and I proceeded to take his cap but the same time I do that he takes my cap with GW.... Crazy! So he now starts taking advantage of it and I'm sitting back getting ready for a all out attack. Mawpawk builds barracks in Moscow and settles his 100g city I believe, next to Beijing. Eventually Mawpawk tries to to attack but loses a disadvantage battle to archer of mine of hill. Some attacks exchanged,, I had Himeji Castle and I had the land... Mawpawk gives up.
MultiPlayaBeast Wins!

@Liam: Will be available for our games this weekend? Your matches with Packrat are higher priority. Just let us know when you renewed your gold membership.

[ITZ DENI3D]

@Ade I've seen you get on twice for a total of 2 hours at 3 am. You gonna be on this weekend?

[forum]

Me and Maniac split

Prey Russia won
Prey France lost

Maniac -Prey 1-1

[ITZ DENI3D]

My French beat Ade's Russians. My Russians beat Ade's French. In first one I won all the button battles since I was host to walk into London and Moscow. Second one I had made 300g by 3000 and had 2 vet HA's by 2900. You tell me who won that one? America couldn't have stopped that lol.

[MultiPlayaBeast]

Such a monstrous start with the Russians... Yeah I don't think anyone could have stopped that.

[REM018]

Just split games with Liam.

1st game: My Russians lose to his French. Nothing I could have done. Map showed nothing and did not tell me which direction is better. I find him at the end of my peninsular (big one). Move back, settle but am already behind. Get my HA out after 1800 BC - lol. No AIs where I am and when I get to Liam he already has 100g and archer army in Paris.

2nd game: My French beat his Russians. He takes Berlin early. I take Washington shortly after. I later get Delhi, but he gets 7cities and KT. I try to sneak attack but he has AAs everywhere. We both expand a bit. He is always 1 tech until 11 techs. He GS'ed Feudalism, I expanded further and teched Math and Nav. He attack with one KA, then 2. But my CAs repelled the attack. He took one city, but I managed to kill both KAs in and by Washington. He sends another KA to my other cities, this time with AA. But I have a CA ready and some pikes (just teched Demo). Fight those knights too and then he concedes. I took over the tech lead and had more cities by now. I also had a galleon with CA and single cat and archer on the other side of his land, ready to attack.

GGs Liam.

[Liam_Sutty]

I didn't conced the second game whatsoever we both tried to attack at the same time with the second wave of knights and it completely locked up. The screen went completely froze and I had to hard reset. There was no way on this earth I was giving up that second one with the production city I had making 20 hammers per turn and it only costing me 30g for each knight. I sent you a message saying I'd froze but never heard anything back.

[REM018]

Oh, I did not get a message. I was wondering why you did not contact me to get a reinvite if you did not drop out on purpose. I just checked on xboxlive.com and I still do not have a message in my inbox about you being kicked out.

We can replay if you want.

[Liam_Sutty]

Yeah I defo sent and thought it was strange at the time not to hear anything back from you. I'm 100% genuine that I didn't quit and was more than happy to keep you spending gold whilst I bombarded you with more and more knights whilst still expanding. Could have gone either way but I'd be happy to play it again. I wouldn't of been able to last night as it was starting to get late and I was absolutely shattered after going out fri/sat for my 30th birthday celebrations! Should be on again tonight and will try and catach Digi to get last weeks games in too.

[REM018]

So we'll redo the 2nd game. Prob won't work tonight. We just gotta play it by ear.

He he, since I'm the last one on the board, I shouldn't be admitted to speak, but this was way to crazy; I attack the english and get monarchy by 3600, spot you and attack with horse 3-1 and I loose. Funk you 'civ, this is crazystoff I would have had you, London, and Paris the next turn. The mario gods hate me

[ademoabo68]

And Liam,- why? This is just a friendly fight,- let it go.. Who cares.. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country...

I attacked you 3-1... It's imposible to lose with those odds before 2000.

[ademoabo68]

?? It's no big thing, but when I spotted your horse two squares away from Moscow, I rushed a horse and attacked you from hill 3-1 and lost. Then you took my capitol. I rushed a new horse from London and lost again. Don't see why you deny that?

Ok before this gets anywhere Im nipping it in the bud....no arguments in the civ league thread....that means dont even consider responding to his comment itz....yalll take this up via pm.....if it comes to it message me via pm and Ill mediate...but if arguments happen in this thread forfeits will be handed to both players or the player who persists to argue.

[forum]

What is the theme this week? Are we not far behind with the standings?

Am I blind?

Well said grizz mate, lets keep the talk friendly fellas. In all threads.

[GrizzleyTigers4]

Real life problems have plagued me this week ill update everything by the end of the day.....as far as i know only liam and packrat have past games to play i could be wrong though

[danthechan]

me and duke never played our france/russia. hopefully you'll let us make them up when he's back. if you have to decide them then a split i guess. i would concede a sweep, but that wouldn't be fair to the players chasing duke in his division.

[GrizzleyTigers4]

ok fellas here is what Ive decided. one game from week 9 has yet to be played and 2.5 are left from wee 10. I dont have week 11s theme listed and I know that duke is out of town and liam and packrat are getting their connections on point. Here is the deal this week is a bye week. All past unfinished games must be completed by this sunday or forfeits will be handed out in the fairest way possible. Duke and dan can finish their game when duke gets back due to vacation. Other than that I will pos week 11s theme this sunday and we can recommence play.

I would like to take this time to ask if anybody has any recommendations or changes they would like implemented for the rest of the season. hans for all the hard work guys and I look forward to the remainder of the season.

[Liam_Sutty]

Hi Grizz. I'm doing absolutely nothing this weekend after battering my bank account with alcohol, football and loose women last weekend! I'll try my best to catch up with the game I owe digi (my fault he sent enough requests) and also the second game against REM and then play whoever I am due to play this week. Got a few games in last night to wipe off the rust... ;-)

PS please don't think I ignore you if I don't see a message as a lot of the time I miss them. Probably be better for me to contact you.

Liam,
I can't sit around waiting/hoping you message me on xbox live if/when you finally see me online or see my messages. Life has changed a bit on my end and I can't just sit online waiting for these games like i used to. We either need to have these games passed over or we need to setup a day/time to play them.

I am on eastern standard time, I do not know when you would be available over the weekend but I am working through the weekend so early games are not possible. I should be available after 6pm both weekend days.

Okay fellas no bad blood in the civ thread....heres what I need you guys to do....schedule the match....its shouldnt be too hard to schedule the games for some point on sat or sunday est time after packrats internet is working. Its an interesting situation...for the first week I know packrat was on a lot and requested liam to play with no response; I also realize that for the past 5 days packrats connection has been out..... so schedule the game and if someone doesnt show thats who gets the forfeit.

FYI liam is 5-6 hours ahead of us. Im not sure exactly what time zone liam is in at the moment but its either 5-6 hours ahead of us for scheduling purposes. Good luck fellas and enjoy the games.....if either of you disagrees with my decision Ill expect a pm from you post haste...if not Ill expect a post in this thread to schedule the games by tonight or early tomorrow....GL to you both

there was no bad blood in my comment or at least none meant. he said it would be better for him to contact me, i assume over xbox live but I am not on live as much as of late and it needs to be scheduled here instead of hoping to run across each other over the weekend

[Liam_Sutty]

Point taken. You do sound quite condescending in a lot of your posts and maybe you're misunderstood?

I propose we play tonight from GMT 22.00 which is roughly about 17.00 your time I think. I will stop on until around 02.00 which is a nice 4 hour window for you to bump into me. I'll drop whatever I am doing as I did with Multi the other night.

Hope this is convenient for you?

[Digitalpackrat]

As stated by grizz I have trouble with my internet. I have a tech coming tomorrow morning so hopefully it will be fixed so we can play tomorrow evening

[Liam_Sutty]

Ok just seen you online 10 mins ago and thought you were ready. I wanna end that streak of yours!!

[GrizzleyTigers4]

Good luck with that....I have the same plan though...

[Digitalpackrat]

comcast was out this morning and they believe they fixed my issue. I believe we probably caused the issue. there are a bunch of wires at the side of the house where a bunch of high grass was growing and when we weedwacked last month the machine snagged on the wires and it appears to have damaged the wire. i had an issue with power on the wire and it would cause intermittent resets. he replaced the wire. hopefully that fixed the issue. i should be home from work around 5pm est maybe sooner

[MultiPlayaBeast]

I believe in Comcast. I used to work for Comcast... They fixed it bro!

[ITZ DENI3D]

LOL maybe they'll pay you to be in one of their commercials

[Digitalpackrat]

son of a B!@CH. My connection reset again while playing maniac. I am back on the phone with comcast

[GrizzleyTigers4]

Okkay this weeks theme has been updated. It is the English versus the zulu and I think it will be quite fun....hey remo and liam whats up with gm 2? pacrats connection is back so play him liam.....im about to myself....good luck fellas....

[REM018]

We have not seen each other online lately. I won't be online tonight. Tomorrow probably after 10.30 pm (Germany). Thursday is bad, Friday might work. Weekend should be OK.

[Liam_Sutty]

We'll have to aim for tomorrow then REM that's fine with me. Not seen Digi online much over the weekend. Will endeavour to catch him soon enough tho!

comcast came out again yesterday to fix my internet and I am pleased to say my modem has been online for 14 hours without a restart, yay they may have fixed it this time. I am ready to play whenever anyone else is.

Liam,
I can be online today at 4pm est. are you available?


Oh and for anyone that plays skyrim the new expansion dawnguard came out today. woo hoo

[dukeblue1987]

I am back! but... probably won't be online too much this week as I have a lot of work to catch up on. I am open to scheduling my matches though. Just don't expect to randomly bump into me online. I think I just have matches to play with Dan and Packrat.

[Liam_Sutty]

If that's 9pm for me then yes I will be free. See you later on Digi.

[Digitalpackrat]

I got off early, if you see this I am home studying but we can get our games in if I see you drop online. otherwise I'll see you at 4pm
