The Syndicate

I seriously need to get the definitive edition.

I would love to get this going again.

I would love to do this again.

Sorry I didn't see it, it's been super busy getting ready for the start of the semester tomorrow.

We need to do this again.

FYI I'm going to be busy with dissertation proposal and having company starting the latter half of next week, so I'll be unavailable for a week or so starting Nov 2, but other than that I should be flexible too. Of course you all can play without me.

I asked my brother too but he is going to be a party tonight so he can't play.

I think I can play tonight!

Oh, I'm terrible so you're cool. Saturday... that should tentatively work for me. Can't think of any reason it wouldn't, at least for the time being.

I could probably spare some time for this an evening later in the week! Let's do it.

I don't have time this weekend after all, sorry guys. I'm sending out my dissertation proposal to the entire accounting department by tomorrow end of day, so it's going to potentially be an all-nighter into tomorrow morning. This week I should have some time though, and I'd love to get this going again.

We can try to swing a weekend evening if that works better for you all. Just let me know.

Any of you all interested? Tomorrow? Another night this week/weekend?

The only evening I can't do for sure is Thursday.

I'm flexible, so we could try a different evening if need be too. I'll have to check my brother's schedule; I just know that he's always off on Tuesdays by default, and Daisy will work morning, so that's why I suggested it. I'm sure another day is doable too though.

YES that’d be awesome! Would anyone be available tomorrow evening perhaps?

We should try to get another one of these games going again soon! Maybe a night this coming week/weekend? What do you all think?

Well, guess it's back to work for an hour or so, then bed now. Lol.

Let's play again next week if we can. Definitely awesome. Very glad I took the break. Thanks guys.

Seriously, well played.

That's the Turks.

LOL, oh, right! We had to stop and start so many times I forgot what fucking civ I even was.

Turks aren't half-bad.

Koreans aren't half-bad. Love those Janissaries.

Lol, me too, but the three of us made a good team.

That game was amazing. Well played guys.

Alright, one last try. I'll make it now.

Well, crap.

k coming now

Should I host it or are you going to start a new one?

Okay, I'll inevitably have to work more after we're done, but I can take a break. I'm in. Just give me a few minutes here to get everything ready.

My brother worked earlier today too so I think he's open to playing as well; I passed along the room name to him.

Good to know. I'll let you all know within 15 or so. Sorry.

Sorry guys, I'm still tied up. Go ahead and play without me if you want. I may have time for a game after that, believe it or not. It's going to be a late night.

Unfortunately I still have this review to finish before I quit working for the evening, but just buzz me if you all want to get a game going and I'll reply back if I'm able.

Otherwise I'll probably be too busy this coming weekend myself, but should be available Monday or Tuesday evening if that works for anyone.

I'm not sure I can swing tonight, but I'll let you all know one way or the other.

Yes!

Agreed, Quin, I was just thinking that myself. When would work for everyone else?

Sorry I didn't push harder for this; I got really exhausted earlier in the evening than anticipated and went to bed around 9:30PM. Maybe we can try again tonight or some night next week.

I'd be fine with co-op or all vs. Jay depending on how many folks we get.

Anyone able to play tonight? I probably will be able to, thought it might be worthwhile to see if we can swing one.

I'm still itching to get 8 folks at once one of these days. 7 v Jay!!

I played as the Saracens, who I've actually used before. Hadn't used most of your all's though.

The wood saved in the Dark Age without needing houses goes a long way toward fast-Castling, and they can obliterate anyone with their cavalry. They're not as good a civilization for a migration map though.
Like I said, I never played as the Huns. Trying to find your fucking "house" button when you've never played as them before makes for a difficult early game when you've been away for so long and think you're going crazy or something's wrong with the game.

I had no reason to personally resign, but I knew Daisy was screwed pretty early on, so as soon as I saw Epi did, I was like, well, shit. Lol.

You available?

Is @Spacedaisy still at work?

Nope! I think she's in as well.

My brother said to give him a few minutes. I'm working on getting a game in sign-ups as well.

I'll be there shortly though.

Haha, I doubt it, but that's a good thought. Would it be me, you, Quin, and my bro then? Is anyone else interested and around?

I'll check with my brother as well. That might just work for me.

I might be up for playing tonight or tomorrow night if any of you all are able. Otherwise we can try for a weekend night again, which I hopefully should be able to actually swing this time.

Unfortunately, I have a somewhat sudden huge deadline Sunday evening, so unless I get my shit done early, I'm actually going to be unavailable this weekend after all. You all should play though. I'll definitely be back again the subsequent week/weekend.

Haha, don't worry about it, Jay! It was pretty late to start and it worked out for the better for me as well.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2017 9:58 pm To be fair the game was accelerated by that wacky turbo resource collection thing. It made it way too easy to jump to the Castle Age in like 12 minutes.

Yeah, that makes sense. I should have changed it back to Random Map, didn't think of it. Good match.

You all are welcome to play another one if you want; I should probably go to bed soon though. Let's definitely try to figure out a night for later this weekend.

I've never played against someone that rushed that quickly so I was ill prepared. I tend to wait as long as possible to build a military. Clear mistake.
