Okay, Tujin has gone with Pangaea. Mivayan is taking R'lyeh, then?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Heyy, shut up. My router fixed itself and everything is working normally again. I use Linksys.

Umm, I uploaded my pretender

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

I've been really tempted to join, but I've gotta cook dinner and a 6 o'clock start (mountain time zone) is just a little too early.

besides that this map is scary http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

anyways, good luck all.

I'm glad someone's taking a sea nation. Everytime I load up a test game I end up in some little island or outcrop. Except, of course, for the one time I decide to try out "water cult", in which case I started in China...

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">So? I'm MST also. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Of course, I don't believe in anything as antiquated as "regular meals". When I feel hungry, I eat. Cooking is kind of bothersome, so I just eat stuff mostly raw. Tastes better anyway.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Well, kickoff's in 40 minutes, ladies. Has everyone signed in?

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

do you have ICQ, MSN, AIM, or Yahoo? Or IRC?

It's kinda lame to play a dom2 network blitz game and not have any communication.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

I've uploaded my pretender now.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Nope. But I regularly monitor this forum in-game, so you can post anything you wish to say to me here.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Okay, T-5 roll call:

Me: Ermor
Argitoth: C'tis
Tujin: Pangaea
Graeme: Arco
Mivayan: R'lyeh
Truper: Vanheim

Still yet to check in:
Condors: Ulm(?)
Navrunner: Undeclared

Hurry it up, ladies!

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

And I've sent the start call. Game to begin Real Soon, server op should be starting it now.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

And we're off!

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

I tried to sign in at 1850 but was getting no response from the server.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Well, there was no interruption as far as I'm aware of, since I was logged in the entire time.

Must have been a router hiccup somewhere out there between you and the server.

Better luck next time!

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

And we are now officially waiting on Argitoth.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

And so it begins.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

And is it ended? Trust Argitoth to say he has to go 2 hours into a monster game...

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Yep, looks like we're stalled for the night.

Typical. I guess they just don't make 12 year olds like they used to. I figured he'd at LEAST Last until midnight....but they just don't make 'em like they used to.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

So, time call: What's the earliest everyone here can resume the rumble tomorrow?

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Is master password enabled? If it is, I'd say set C'tis to computer control....

Otherwise I can continiue any time tomorrow.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Any time is fine for me too, as long as we agree on it here.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

I would, but there are a number of specators looking for a piece of Argitoth, and botting him would deprive the eager fans of this. If he does this again TOMORROW, I'll certainly consider it.

Also, while there is a master password, it's not actually *MY* server, it's being hosted by a third party. So I don't know what it is anyway.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Okay, the earliest time Tujin can start is 1400 EST. Is this good for everyone?

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Sure, that time sounds good.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

yes, that is good

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Sorry - I should have said any time tomorrow evening. The earliest I'd be able to go would be 1800.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

So, 1800 EST is currently our earliest start.

Let's see if we can't get it rolling by then.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I think he just weenied out. This way he has an "excuse" for not losing. I'm given to understand that his super-duper pretender has repeatedly died ...

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I doubt it. With his third death so far, he's immortal. Without a doubt a Saurolich, from his behavioral profile and performance characteristics. Dying doesn't hurt.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Immortals automatically recover from battle afflictions. Besides, do Sauroliches even feel pain? I don't think something that decayed has a functioning nervous system anymore, but who knows? Let's ask Argitoth sometime.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

The engagement I thought would be keeping me busy today has been postponed. I can be available at 1400, if there's any chance of gathering the rest of the crew by then.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

that is in.. um... two hours? I can be around then.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Excellente. Let's see if we can't gather the crowd.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Well, I was able to locate and awaken everyone....except ARGITOTH, who has conveniently skipped the forums and is nowhere to be found. If anyone can find him and scream at him, please do so.

Augh. I can see why Arryn detests him now.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I'm far from being the only one, judging from the Posts I've seen and the PMs I've gotten.

{undisguised flame}
I'm not surprised at this most recent childish and irresponsible behavior, but my dislike actually stems from his rude, obnoxious, and generally annoying forum posting habits. The fact that he's also arrogant, conceited, and downright boorish only adds to his considerably negative charm. To be precise, I do not detest him. I loathe him. A loathing full of utter contempt and disdain. I'm embarrassed to even live in the same country as such an ill-mannered, undereducated lout.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Arryn, I suggest you read your Last post - and then look in a mirror.

Hey, Graeme? Still available? Haven't seen you connected yet. Problems?

edit-oh, there you are.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Truper said the following on irc about 2 minutes before argitoth took his turn:
<Truper> welp, as The Revenge doesn't seem to be in imminent danger of starting, i am gonna take a break - bbl

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Nuts. See if you can't get him back. Somewhere. Where is this IRC you people speak of, anyway?

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Truper is not on IRC and is not on my buddy list.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Well, in about an hour and a half, it'll be The Appointed Time of 1800 anyway. He'll probably show up real soon. Nobody disappear now, y'hear?

edit- frickin' time zones

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Thanks for a good game argitoth. I dont think I managed to kill a single sauromancer despite destroying big parts of your empire.

I am out for today, lets continue tomorrow.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

My best guess as to my 1st availabilty tomorrow is 2000 EST...

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

Okay, Tujin is, unfortunately, working 1700-2300 EST tomorrow.

The alternatives are that we start relatively late for the EST-siders, or we call a long break to ponder over our next moves at length, and see what everyone's Monday looks like.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

You managed to kill 2 or 3.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

I have a bunch of work to do tomorrow, so it might be best to wait for a while. If possible, we could set it up as a daily game until we have time to go crazy again. I know that I don't want to give up just when I'm starting to get involved in the wars.

Re: The New Game: The Revenge
 

No problem. We can leave the game kinda cruising on Quickhost until we can orchestrate a mass-gathering.

So, no official gametime tomorrow, then, just drop by and take your turn whenever.

What's everyone's Monday look like?
