Do these things bother you: the turn limit, blazing-speed and simultaneous turns options in Civ 4? I just played another god-awful blazing-speed game. Can you believe some people said they were bored? I should say instead of people, "kids who can't pick up a book once in a while". Are you frustrated that you don't have enough time to make all your moves? Do you feel that normal ladder settings are not a true test of skill and don't offer enough variety in victory conditions? Are you certain others wouldn't stand a chance if they played a game where everyone is allowed to take their full turn, but are afraid the game will take too long and that people simply don't have enough time in one session to play an entire game? If you finish the game another day, you have no idea when the other players will return. Well, now the answer is here: join my PitBoss game in the forums! ;D The PitBoss allows you to log in, play as many turns as you want, log out to eat dinner, go to sleep, do all those other nasty habits, and come back whenever you want, all while the game is still there! You can even play your turn if no one else is logged in! The best part of all is that it's FREE!

How do you play as many turns as you want if nobody else is there? Don't your future moves kinda depend on what your opponents do?
I thought it was a "take one turn and pass the save file along" kind of thing, so that one complete turn takes like a day.

He's trying to sell a product. It's ok for him to embellish a bit.
I wouldn't mind doing a few pbem but I figure 99 percent of them never finish, so would end up just a waste of time. Unless you had a really small map, couldn't a game easily take over a year to finish the game.

I obviously need to clear up a few things. From mrsaturn: For one thing this is not a Play By EMail game. I repeat, this is NOT a PBEM game. This is a new alternative that many consider to be better than PBEM. For more info on PitBoss games go to: civ4players.proboards44.com/index.cgi?board=pspga&action=display&thread=1144988772From Necrom666: 1. Since this is not a PBEM game, I am not embellishing one bit. 2. And since this is a game that is open to everyone for FREE, I'm not selling anything. You're wrong on both counts, Necrom666. If you're interested in a longer game where everyone fininshes, then this alternative to PBEM is the right game for you!
