Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Sweet, we are now in business. GL all!

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I didn't get an email from the server yet...has it gone out?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

No, not yet - needs to be started by admin.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I think Zylithan is waiting to figure out start positions. Rather than have them be totally random, they could be set to prefixed locations. Even though everyone is able to get to everyone else pretty easily via the gates, there's still an advantage to having your ally randomly next to you, guarding that border, vs. on the opposite side of the map.

The plan he and I chatted about was to preset 5 pairs of positions and then randomly assign, which I think is what he's doing.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

That would be great.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

nopers. waiting for admin. i was lazy, and since there wasnt a big consensus, and i probably wouldnt edit the map until 2008, i just had llamabeast begin as is.

go for it....

everyone enjoy!

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Thanks for your efforts Zyl. Looking forward to it.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Got the file and returned. Not much going on first turn....always scared if I just randomly attack I will hit the super well defended province and all my guys will die and I will be stuck with nothing for 5 turns.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

yeah I hate it when you get smashed by a crazy powerful indy force.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Someone's capital was attacked by the vampire count at first turn, in another MP game I'm palying...

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

yeah, first turn indies are rough.

hope everyone has fun. first turns are quick and boring... and then we're all on scattere3d vacation!

but, hopefully we get into the meat of the game some time in january.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Okay... I set the turn timer to no authost, just until the holidays are over, this is to reduce difficulties trying to figure out who is needing a delay when.

PLEASE STILL PLAY YOURS TURNS ASAP!

thanks!

I'll notify when I got back to 48 hrs.

Thanks and have fun!

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Done.....interesting that almost everyone made their initial leader their prophet. I never do that and always recruit someone to become my prophet on turn 2.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Same.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

why is autohosting a problem?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

eh the default general for agartha makes a pretty good prophet.
Ive never lost because of him. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Normally its my own fault when i do...

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

i misspoke - autohost is on, turn time limit is very long.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Hey Z, everyone is in but you I think. Aren't you Nief?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

im TC. But it looks like Niefelheim got his in.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Sorry I was so slow...travelling this week. I will get turn 3 in shortly. ~ Vanheim.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I think during this period we all have to be patient with eachother and such. Things will get more fast and more exciting in 2008. Hope everyone is doing well.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

We'll do our best, and Im sure the game will pick up.
As for me when it comes to misfortune, it really scares me. I always get attacked by huge indie forces early or have my lab burn down second turn before I have a caster out..
Dangerous thing that.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Hell, I don't even need misfortune to get myself smacked around by indies! Ouchies!

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Waaah! we are slipping into mediocrity. Waiting for these early turns can be painful..and I didnt die to the first two indies. Im proud of myself... :p

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Agreed. I am wondering.... <font color="blue">can I put the timer back to 48 hours? any approvals/objections?</font>

also.. if you are the last to play your turn, please wait 5 minutes for the new turn to generate, and be first to play the next turn... this can really speed up a game.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I have no objections to 48 hours.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Me either.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I'm all in for 48 hours timer, but shouldn't we wait until we hear something from Mictlan just to be sure he is back?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

i think that's wise. Mictlan is Nozshand I assume?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Yeah, I think so Last time I checked.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Yeah I think we have been waiting on him for 7 days or so.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

im sorry for the delay, i just got back from a trip and its all good now, 48 hours timer is fine for me

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Cool. Glad to have you back. I am ready to get this game rolling.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Could we?
This game has stalled to an outrageous amount...
I've almost forgot that Ive played it... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

yeah, its been slow. hopefully things will speed up... this would be a good speed at turn 50 maybe, but .. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Next turn due: 04:45 GMT on Sunday January 20th

how about we set the turn timer back to normal?

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

yeah, lets set it back to 48 hours

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Hi Guys,
I'm also back from holidays now, 48 hr turns is fine by me.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

when you change the timer it affects the next turn. i think i already set it back, but wont change until this turn is done.

(if i am wrong, apologies)

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

So far so good for me. My only problem is that the water provinces are held way too well for my limited number of amphibious troops.

And of course that everyone hasn't given me all their gold.

Vanheim does accept bribes you know. Ms. Vanheim likes the gems as well.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Abysia is also happy to accept any spare gems. Fire gems are sooo 2007.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

The combined forces of Neifel and Tien Chi appear to have marched on my ally. It seems there will be blood in the streets early on in this game.

A travel advisory has been issued to tourists wishing to travel to the area.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Hey Wokeye....Where are you and Lanka? I still don't know where anyone is except my ally.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Just a friendlt reminder to everyone to check your forum mail in case of diplomacy...

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Reinselc, we are though a gate near you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I bet you are. I will just stay in my happy little kingdom building my army. I guess I should start doing some R&amp;D though. Everyone else is killing me.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

Although considering all my troops have glamour....maybe my giant army is actually inside your borders in hiding. You never know with those pesky vans.

Re: Agouti (Noob Team Game) Looking For Players
 

I hope your glamorous spies have brought asbestos suits if they want to hang out over my place. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
