Bollocks, Bollocks, Bollocks. How stupid can I be. Finally have everything in hand, ready to move on, and I go to bed forgetting about hosting deadline. Lucky most people didn't trust me and did submit a turn 18 before. ;)

With two rollbacks doubling the chances of things exploding in our faces though, as well as massively increasing the opportunities for everyone who wants to send in a substitute turn 17 or 18 (due to the time Marignon would need to turn in two turns at once) and, as others have said before, several newer players perhaps not quite getting what's going on (despite my - I believe - very clear explanation of what to do and what not to do) I'm going to have to take the executive decision to just move on now, so ignore everything I wrote in my previous post mail and just play on as we are now. We're still early enough in the game that a good dose of diplomacy and dogpiling should (hopefully) take care of anyone gaining too much of an advantage by swallowing Marignon.

With very big apologies to Bogarus and Midgard who trusted me enough not to send in a turn and thus staled, (at least I staled out too, so no one can accuse me of abusing my position to favor myself. ;) ) and also to Stagger Lee who was looking forward for taking over, as well as to everyone else for me generally screwing up.

Bollokcs.

I just PM'd you about this, Ahazair. Whatever you folks think is best is ok by me. If you choose not to go back two turns, then good luck with the rest of the game.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Yeah, I'm afraid rolling back twice with all the issues surrounding it is just too much of a risk this early in the game. Thanks a lot for offering to help out though, it's greatly appreciated.

Also, this is unrelated to anything else (and thus was definitely not worth a place in the serious thread above when I wondered about it) but I noticed I find myself saying (or, well, writing at least, since I hardly ever come in a situation where I actually have to speak English) 'bollocks' a whole lot lately. Anyone knows of a movie or a series where the/one protagonist use(s) that word a lot? I'm mildly curious why it's often the first swearword comming to mind these days.

A rollback one turn is the same as a rollback 2 turns imho. Sucks to have spend a little time on turn 18. But not really a big problem. (Enterprising site searching players could have some bonus from the two rollbacks, but not that super much).

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

While technically that's true, it does double the chances of someone screwing up, and the fact that two turns were submitted without questions asked shortly after the game hosted again sorta shows not everyone is following allong with what's happening. I just don't see things ending well with a double rollback now.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Yeah, just send a message to everybody with that information. Sucks. But nothing much we can do about it anymore.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

I've added a couple of hours so I can check before going to work tomorrow to make sure nobody stales with this restart.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

I wouldn't mind rolling back to get some help with site searching actually! Heck, I've site searched a dozen provinces for high level F/D and low level E/S and I only got (and quite a few) non gem sites! :mad:
I demand a rollback so I can site search properly!

What restart? You mean this continuation?

One more thing, I don't tend to make public threats but if any of the leading nations tries to gobble up Marginon I god damn will find a way to attack you! I'm looking at you, Pythium, Atlantis, Midgard... :)

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Ermor is the one to worry about since Marignon is one of the best Ermor-counters... of course, we're all at war with him anyway, so that's not much of a threat.

Hey, we're very friendly and were attacked first, don't be HATIN
