Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME] (LOOKING FOR SUB)
 

Remember to delete your old 2H files.

Interesting communion on that 2nd battle. I think your Air communion master kept the guys from attacking. Also the auto rout at 75% hp losses hit you. Probably better to keep a lot of body guards for your masters to prevent routs and use junk summons to buy time.

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

It got all messed up with other turn files submitted. Not sure what the best way to deal with this is, can someone look into it?

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

Did you erase your old 2h file? What is all messed up?

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

I am sorry, I got a turn and just did it. I am very sorry. What do I need to do to change it?

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

If people generated new 2h files with the roll back turn they got and submitted those we should be fine, I think, otherwise:

Well we can start a new game or
This:

Debaser8: Anybody have experience with rollbacks?
Debaser8: What if people submit the 2h file from the formerly current and now future turn?
Debaser8: I feel a little bit like i'm watching back to the future or terminator and dealing with time paradoxes

Sheap: don't submit .2h files from the wrong turn

Debaser8: That advice is a little late now

Zeldor: game will be utterly broken
Zeldor: you need to roll back again or finish it

Debaser8: thanks
Debaser8: so we roll back to the same turn?
Debaser8: and then people who submitted future turns submit over them?

Zeldor: well, future turns cannot be submitted
Zeldor: or they break the game
Zeldor: it's jsut cheating

Debaser8: but would the server remember the future turns that have been submitted last time it was rolled over?
Debaser8: and therefore they would have to be submitted over?

Zeldor: when you roll back, all .2h files are in
Zeldor: even though it shows no one submitted

Debaser8: so we roll back to a previous turn?

Zeldor: well, yeah
Zeldor: as far as you need to get before those future turns submitted

Debaser8: from before turn we originally rolled back to?
Debaser8: ok and then people have to find the right turns and submit them?
Debaser8: hmm...sounds like a lot of possibilities for fail

Zeldor: to where you rolled back
Debaser8: ?
Zeldor: well, to where people submitted wrong turns
Zeldor: so if it's new turn now
Zeldor: you need to roll back just 1
Zeldor: not 2
Zeldor: and those that submitted future turns, need to redo them
Zeldor: deleting .2h files

Debaser8: ok
<Debaser8: so hopefully they have the originals?

Zeldor: of course using proper .trn file
Zeldor: well, if you want to be sure, you can order everyone to redo the turn
Zeldor: they got proper .trn file with rollback email
Zeldor: if someone still submits wrong turn - turn him AI

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

Just set me AI if I was cheating then, not worth the drama.

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

I don't think you were cheating. It was obviously an honest mistake. I think that was just a throw away line from IRC about how submitting the wrong turns is bad.

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

Sorry, too curt of a response. I really meant if I did something that kind of 'broke' what other people had done, then I will forfeit, and go AI, or better yet just get a replacement for me who would be new and not know any of the decisions, ect..

I honestly just did a new turn, not even really remembering what my neighbors had done.

But to be fair, I will bow out and get a sub if that is a good solution. :)

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

I didn't have any problems with my new turn. So, I'm curious to hear what is messed up myself.

Re: EA: Master Blaster [NOOB GAME]
 

It looks like I was a bit too optimistic about my schedule. I didn't have time to play the current turn, so it might be a good idea to extend the turn until a sub is found. If there's no sub soon, you could also set Ulm to AI. That'll certainly let Kailasa off too easily, though - I still have some tricks up my sleeve, but the AI is certain to mess them up :)
