So in general we are working on the AI and the game gets released when its ready and hopefully not to far away

Well shut my mouth [:D] I honestly believed that the majority here were PBEMers.

I guess I never really felt the AI in vanilla was overly bright or challenging so I couldn't imagine anyone playing it long term.

Im use to losing so when IM beating the AI to death...[>:]

Like I said Im here waiting like every one else for the advanced version...even have one of my opponents lined up. So, give me give me give me.

I vote for more delays.  How on Earth would I be expected to finish my current PBEM with AE loaded on my computer taunting me every minute of every day??  I have been playing my current game for well over a year and am at the end of '43, so I need another year at least to finish the game.  So, in the interest of my self serving self, I would like to request another 12 month delay...just to sharpen things up a bit [:D]

If you finish it soon there's a donut in it for you...

If this is devolving into a poll of who plays what, I am AI only due to RL time-constraints (and fear of losing to so much talent on these forums).[:D]

Me too, pretty much (and my time constraints are so severe these days that I have a copy for AE on my PC as we speak but I am not playing it! That takes "annoying" to a whole new level).

You......have AE............on your 'puter.....................and you......(of all people).........are not playing it?.........................Aww, now that just goes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond annoying!......... You are being the little kid eating ice cream at the window with we slobbering and hungry bums outside, looking in!.....[X(][:(][:-]

I'm not playing my copy either, Bob...[:'(]

Well....Yeah, T, but YOU have that reputation to live up to![:D]

Or down to, as the case may be...[:D]

Just to get an image:
How many WITP games were sold approximately?
To get the number of potential players and compare it with say thousand on this forum...

So T,

If you're not playing your copy then send it this way and I'll give it a real thorough like testing.

[:)]

Sure...[:'(]

Matrix has always had the policy to never disclose their sales, so there's no point in waiting for anybody else to answer this one...

there should be a special opponents wanted section for "erratic schedule PBEMers" ...  why waste couple weeks vs AI every couple weeks, when you could be doing the same vs. another erratic schedule opponent...    perhaps there should be a rotation of erratic PBEMers in such games [;)]

You guys keep him talkin'...I just about got his grid coordinates down![:@]

Well, if it is Matrix decision to make AEs AI working, they should know what they are doing considering the AE selling [:D]

All you have to do is follow the trail of cookie crumbs, empty beer bottles and empty ice cream containers....at the end you will find Terminus. Now whether his computer is "there" is a whole other issue....[:)][:)][:)]
