Bah, what's wrong with you people, I'm taking the laptop to the Christmas Eve events, screw the in-laws.

Thoth has graciously agreed to cover for me while I'm gone - Tatan, could you please send the saves his way as well for the near future? I'll e-mail you his contact info in case you don't already have it.

Hmm, maybe I should have added a smiley after my last comment.

I was joking, I have no problem keeping the game on hold till after New Year's Eve.

I was pretty sure - but I'd actually asked before your comment, and Thoth was willing and able, so why not?

[Tatan]

@Mardoc: Right, will forward emails to Thoth (when I get home tomorrow, that is).

@Ilios: Oh, I have no problems in principle whipping out my computer and playing civ in the middle of a family get-together... the thing is, in order to do that I would have to either a) run it on my aging, low-spex mac laptop, which is about as likely as Trump's presidency, or b) cram a whole desktop PC and monitor into an SUV already filled with three other peoples' [STRIKE]piles of crap[/STRIKE] piles of much-loved possessions. 2:

And I'm talking about a car where the people in the back seat already aren't going to be able to see each other through a pile of stuff.

You mean Donald Trump's chances of winning the presidency are lower than expected?

Even after announcing his running mate?

Trump/Trump 2012!!

@Tatan: You now know what you need to ask Santa...

[Tatan]

Happy Boxing Day! :2dance:

[Ilios]

Tatan, I see you've posted in your thread, you do realise you still have the save according to the tracker?

[Tatan]

That's because my post literally consisted of me lamenting my lack of access to civ so I could report properly.

As I said earlier, until next week I only have sporadic internet access, not civ access (and my plans are too much in flux for me to feel comfortable with a sub). Sorry.

[Ilios]

Oh yeah, I forgot you were away till the first of Jan. Apologies.

[Ilios]

On to Uber.
