Merci beaucoup.
Gracias
Thanks.

Re: Hosting delay anticipated
 

Resuming... 30 hour turns reinstated as soon as everybody has their turn in.

If the system takes negative values, the deadline will be somewhere around Monday. If not, it'll be Wednesday.

Well... my guinea pigs... I'll continue to learn the administration pages.

Caduceus
 

Caduceus, I'd like to hear from you, please.

You've stalled two out of three turns, and haven't yet gotten your turn in with this long freeze on the game.

As we're waiting on one player, not the one who requested the freeze, I've forced the next turn to arrive now...

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Uhh... I never joined this game? I don't think I sent you a pretender, either. Maybe I have had a stroke...

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Uhmm.. if you haven't been recieving the turn emails, than that means I made a mistake, and someone else is involved in R'lyeh. Sorry. My apologies to you, Caduceus.

Any idea who is playing R'lyeh? I suppose I can switch to AI without knowing that... but that isn't ideal

Re: Bragi Ready
 

I'll take over if you want, but haven't played Ryleh before http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Only if you want, Caduceus, only if you want.

It was my mistake, not yours.

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Check your PM Lazy_Perfectionist.

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Okay, I've changed the email address and resent the turn. Feel free to play as long as you want or set to AI if you need.

Thank you, and welcome to the game, Caduceus. Good to have you, sorry for the mixup.

If you need some ideas for R'lyeh, check out the 'Strategy Index'

Re: Bragi Ready
 

hurray for the brave Caduceus who was voluntold to play Ryleh.

This could be a great new tactic for filling up MP games, "I draft you you and you!"

Re: Bragi Ready
 

LP had my kids hostage. He told me so.

If you don't play Ry'leh, your toddler will be fed to the illithids!

Re: Bragi Ready
 

LOL

At least its quick and mostly painless...

Re: Bragi Ready
 

Any chance of a slow-down of Bragi over labor day weekend?

Re: Bragi Ready
 

I can slow it down to 50 hours. I can postpone it for 72 hours, or I can set the turn cycles to 72 hours.

Checking in on all mah games here. If I don't hear any particular feedback, I'll set to a 50 hour cycle, till monday/tuesday.

Re: Bragi Ready
 

I am fine with whatever.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

50 Hour cycle until I'm reminded to change it back.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Thanks! I missent a turn yesterday and will get to resend it at lunchtime today - EST, before going out of town for the long weekend.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

So how is eveyone? Game wise that is. I mean if you want to tell me about your life thats cool. Any nasty wars going on? Tell me all your plans http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Wow, I just got stomped. I find the hardest armies for me to master are those with more traditional military units like Pythium.

I was really frustrated to find that for some reason the mages that I prepped to defend my capital by casting the spell that makes a single unit ethereal did not go with the defending forces. Instead they just stayed inside of the castle. They might have won me that fight on their own. Without any way to produce hydras, I'm setting myself to AI.

I suggest you all dogpile Pangea. He's just taken over quite a few territories from me, but over extended himself to do it.

Please take me off the e-mail list for turns.

Jazzepi

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Sorry Jazzepi. I needed somewhere to expand and you where the last to offer me a NAP.

I must dissagree, I am not overextended http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

You didn't need somewhere to extend. I sent a scout over and there were plenty of neutrals ;P

Jazzepi

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

That is true as well. I had to hit someone fast before they got research to stop me. and Pythium becomes a holy terror late game.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

This has been a viscous game already. From what it sounds, Pythium is out and Machaka lost his capital. Blitz strategies seem effective so far.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Shall I leave this at fifty hours, or turn it down to 30?

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

I say we go back to 30

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

I'm back, so whatever the majority says.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Me too. Its too slow for me. I keep forgetting what happened last turn.

Re: Bragi - hosting change
 

Okay... three out of six. This turn will complete at the preordained time of 2:45 Saturday, or when everybody gets their turn in. Please make it the latter. The remaining turns will host on the 30 hour schedule.

Problem with Turn
 

I have submitted my turn three times, but the server still says that it has not received it. What should I do?

Re: Problem with Turn
 

Wait a bit... coffee hasn't seeped into my brain. If need be, I will postpone hosting.

Uhmm... I'll look into things a bit. When did you try, and did you receive any error message or email? Try again in two hours, and let me know.

Edit: I did the postpone, but the status page isn't updating to match. I'll keep an eye on things and post when something changes.

Edit: The first postpone didn't go through (too impatient), but a bit later, the second eight hour postpone went through. Try sending in the turn once more. 2h file, Bragi, turns(at)llamaserver(dot)net. Let me know the results of that. I'll postpone again as long as this problem is unresolved.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

Just had a quick look at this. It seems there are two problems:

1) It thinks your 2h file is corrupted (never seen that before).
2) It's not managing to pick up your e-mail address for some reason (this is something I need to look into), so the error messages it's trying to send to you aren't getting to you.

I'd suggest first going back into Dominions, taking the turn ('Continue where I left' so you don't actually have to do it again), then hitting 'End turn' again, and trying to send the file again. Alternatively try using a different e-mail account and see if that helps.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

I continued then ended as suggested. I also sent the e-mail from another account. I will give the server a few minutes and then check to see if it worked.

If I have to do so, I can try to redo the turn from another computer. That will be my next try.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

It did not work. I also did not get an e-mail. I will try the other computer.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

Another account? Are you using an app like outlook/thunderbird/eudora or are you using the webinterface?

Re: Problem with Turn
 

You could also try attaching the 2h file, and sending it to [scrubbed out to avoid spam bots]

I'll see if I can read it and send it in for you. I'd seen something similar to this once, and it may help. In that case, it was a once off.

I'll also look through my posts and see just what I did and what happened and blah de blah de blah.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

E-mailing it to LP and getting him to forward it would indeed be a good idea.

Sorry I can't be more helpful on this, I can't really tell what's going on.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

Oh, LP, you might want to PM your address to dmentd and then scrub it from here - otherwise your address might get cheerfully eaten by spambots.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

Well, no matter. Yahoo was a one shot... I'll scrub it anyways, but I'm not really using it much. I think I'll end up making gmail my Dominions account in the far future.

Re: Problem with Turn
 

gmail is lovely. I have every single e-mail sent to the llamaserver backed up on gmail - isn't it amazing that they give you all that space for free?

No More Problem with Turn
 

Hurray! A new file from the other computer appears to have worked. Sorry about the problems.

Re: No More Problem with Turn
 

No worries, sorry it didn't work. Not sure what was going on with the corrupted file, but I will have to look into the business with it not grabbing your e-mail address correctly.

Re: No More Problem with Turn
 

This is the sound of grass growing.
this is the sound of noone talking om this thread.

So how is everyone doing?

Arco. I have not heard back from you. Did you get our reply? Please don't mind the scouts you have foun, they come in peices, err peace.

Greetings giant people to the east! Hope we can be friends. Seems your doing quite well for your selfs.

Hello Man. Why did you attack us? Did you think us weak? Have we dispelled that notion yet?

Re: No More Problem with Turn
 

Hello Caelum. how have you been? have not heard from you in a while. Would you like a gift? Interested in trading gems?

What the hell is happening with Ryleh? Seems to be just setting there. thats cool. I mean that is what I like players to do.

Re: No More Problem with Turn
 

Hello. We hope you are faring well.

Things are peaceful in Caelum. The mammoths grow strong, the seraphs fly high, and the people grow strong in body and mind under the watchful eye of Sophia, supreme deity of this world and the next.

We welcome private discussion regarding trade.

Please Delay
 

We had a problem at the plant and I just finished a nearly 20 hour shift. Would you please delay this game for a day. Otherwise I might stale.

Oh, and Caelum, I somehow missed your message. New job is getting to me some, and I am tired, so I will search for it tomorrow,

Ok
 

Couldn't sleep. Turns in.

Re: Ok
 

Would anyone besides me like to see this game moved to a 48-hr. host cycle?

Turn Timing
 

I would welcome a change to 48 hour timing.

Re: Turn Timing
 

Until and if someone says otherwise...
50 hr.

Re: Turn Timing
 

Thank you. You may have helped save my marriage, and many young single women who would otherwise be subjected to me. My turns may get better too...

TMI, I know.

;-)
