13 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 1: Hello and good luck :)
13 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 1: Good luck everyone.
13 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 1: I am going to hope that the name of this game does not indicate that I as the leader of Rome will soon be assassinated :)
13 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 1: Beware!
14 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 1: Lol, when I made up the game name I didn’t really think about potential bad omens. Then again, I’m not Rome in this one, so I’m ... fine with it.
15 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 1: Everybody got 6 SCs to start the game, lol. This is going to turn into a knife fight really quick! Good luck all.
15 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 1: Alea iacta est
15 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 1: HEY! THAT'S MY LINE!
15 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 1: Oh, I'm sorry
Eye, obelisk, sphinx, side face, pyramid
17 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 3: *Gasp! walkingman - bird - feather - reeds - walkingman!
If you've got the stones! the... rectangular stones.
17 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 3: wing-dings smack talk. One day we'll discover that most heiroglyphics were just comment threads.
"I banged your mummy!"
"Here are some cat pictures"
17 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 3: The roman graffiti of Pompeii agree lol
17 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 3: What is hieroglyph for, “Find yourself someone who trusts you as blindly as Rome trusts Greece?” Asking for a friend.
19 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 3: The Senate has recently welcomed the arrival of a wonderous present from Pharaoh - a towering obelisk carved with intricate hieroglyphs. While Egyptian diplomats state that it spells out a dedication to the friendship between Egypt and Rome, some Senators insist it spells out something quite different - G E T S T U F F E D , C A R T H A G E.
19 Jan 21 UTC Autumn, 3: Lies! The Pharaoh has no interest in meddling on western affairs when the true threat comes beyond the Nile...
19 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 4: Carthage has no time for sculptural niceties, we’re trying to teach the populace the Greek alphabet as quickly as possible.

It does appear that the statue has an inscription: “Rome, you’re a bad pony, and Carthage is not going to bet on you.” (Who knew that the ancients had watched “house of games”?!?)
19 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 4: Don't worry, we have no intentions of forcing our language on others. Our conquest will be a kind and benevolent one.
19 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 4: I just wanted to make furniture
19 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 4: Or rugs
19 Jan 21 UTC Spring, 4: Yeah, a lot of feet-based developments going on over here.
