Default Adventure Five - Waiting For Godot - Info Thread

Adventure Five - Waiting For Godot

Sponsor: Sirian
Opening Date: Thursday, April 6
Duration: As Long As It Takes For Godot To Arrive!
Map Script: Continents
Game Speed: Normal

Difficulty: Prince
Civilization: Germany
Leader: Frederick
World Size: Standard

Concept: In honor of the Civ4 patch fiasco, and in memory of the play by American playwright Sam Beckett, in which a couple of bums sit around waiting for Godot to show up. (Hint: he never comes.)


Scenario Information: I'm sure I'll have it ready any day now. In the mean time, why don't you get started?


CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THIS GAME!


Closing Date: The Monday after Civ4's patch is released -- however long that takes.

If memory serves me (Speak, Memory) Beckett was an Irishman who spent his adult life in Paris. So why do I sense some good ol' Sirian Sleight o' Hand here?



Playing now!

Was that Paris, Kentucky? Or Paris, Illinois? I can't seem to remember. ... Maybe it was Paris, Kansas.

No sleight of hand. Silly Americans claim everything as their own.

Don't worry. Godot will straighten me out when he gets here.

I hear he's also bringing a description of what this game should play like.

"Shall we go?"

"Yes, let's go."

(They both stay right there.)


Nice, my first . . .

I've played until 825 BC right now. And I can promise everyone that it's gonna be a very very interesting game . I just want to know one thing from Sirian: Did you - as I assume - design this very Adventure 5 world with the worldbuilder ? And will you play it yourself too, at least as a Shadow Game ?

Regards,

LT

Hello folks. I've registered some time ago, this is my first time posting. I was waiting an occasion to show myself up, and now it's the moment .
I was looking forward to a new RB game, played adventure 4 already, but not finished.
I'll post my report for sure, I'll be happy to see how badly I play in comparison to the great players here .
Is this a variant game, or just a "gentle adventure"? I have yet to win on emperor, a hard variant at prince could be really tough for me. I think I played decently in the adv 4, but then my game disappeared it was too boring to restart, and that would have been a spoiled game. However, that had not been easy up to that point.
What has Sirian the Great prepared? I'll start the game right now...

Of course we all know that now that Sirian has decided to start an event, the patch will be released. It's just the way these things work.....

True enough, its like at a restaurant, if your food is not coming just light up a cigarette or go to the bathroom. If you are waiting on a patch, just start another game

Not Extreme, not Gentle.
