alanschu Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Railroads actually looked the best I think in the original Civ, when they were just a straight line connection.
alanschu Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Simpler than a straight line? Other than just "make believing?" :D
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 I think you two are in violent agreement. Me too, and I am unanimous in this. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
alanschu Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Nah, it was more of a passive resistive agreement. A cold war agreement, so to speak :D

alanschu Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 :alanschu: Soon I'll just stop with the 's, but I don't think I'm quite at the :darque: stage yet. It's an awfully big step to make to hit :darque:dom
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 It takes a concerted spamming effort, I don't think you have reached that level of commitment just yet ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
EnderAndrew Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 I think roughly 20% of her early posts consistedly solely of :darque:

Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Darque recently accused me of using "instigation style tactics" in an argument. How is that not gold? ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 Well, that is just another name for "passive aggression". In other words, Darque is accusing you of deliberate provocation through passive means (i.e. not an outright attack, but a threatening encroachment).

Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 What, the tactics? I am officially clueless. EDIT: This post has been modified to correspond with the mended post #289 by metadigital. The modification goes as follows: I know, did I ask? ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Meta, you are now spamming this lovely thread with references to British groups that I don't even like, and I'm too stupid (or blessed?) to even begin to understand why? Please don't be so out there. ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 I know, did I ask? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not sure if you are proposing a tactic for Civ that you would like to see, or have used in the past. Please explain. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 You're more about Thought Police style tactics, I see. ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 Well, I would like to see more secret services in Civ4. The ability to control the population through the media, build an illuminati ... but what about you and your ex post facto post editing?

EnderAndrew Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 Darque is not an instigator. She can be frustrating because she is dismissive and can answer a lengthy rant with :darque: Volourn is instigative. GroinOfDespair is as well, to a lesser extent.
Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 I have not accused Darque of being an instigator. I merely pointed out that she used a humourous and very Darque-esque choice of words when she thought I was being a touch rude. That got settled pretty quickly, however, and is in fact quite irrelevant to anything concerning Civ4. ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
metadigital Posted July 15, 2005 Author Posted July 15, 2005 (edited) So why did you post it in my lovely Civ4 thread? Edit: "instigation style tactics" is quite a quixotic notion, if left unexplained. But, as I was there at the time, I have interpolated to extract my observations, above.

EnderAndrew Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 This thread will never get a diplomatic victory at this rate.
Darth_Schmarth Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 You're shrewd Meta, I'll give you that. ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum
