Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I uploaded, so now we're just waiting on miclan or more signups.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I should have the map tonight.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Please toss in lots of sea! Should be interesting with all 3 water nations.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Indeed, and thanks for hosting this.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Well "lots" is relative. The standard to is less water provinces per water nation than land for land nations for balance issues.

There will probably be around 35 water provinces.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Great!

It looks like everybody has uploaded their pretenders.
By the way, is there any way we could put together a list of races with emails of their owners? (for a quick diplomacy and trade during the game)

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

PM me here...I check many, many times a day. I don't want to receive dom-related email at the only email address I check with any frequency.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Forum PM is ok for me too, it's good to have a separate place to handle all Dominions-related messages.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Same goes for me. Heck.. I check this dang forum 100x the amount I check my e-mail.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I prefer forum PM as well.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I check the forum every day. The email in my profile I check maybe twice a week. So forum PM for me too.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Forum PM for me too.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Map is ready here:

http://arsnotoria.net/dominions3/figment.zip

I HIGHLY recommend you download the map before connecting to play your first turn.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

At this point we are just waiting on the Admiral.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

PM him?

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Hmmm, all right, it seems like a lot of people prefer PM. I guess that means that I will need to start visiting forum regularly once again. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Just in case, here is my email address, in case someone will want to contact me quickly for in-game diplomacy/trade(in a scrambled format to fool bots):

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Alright.. I'll bite for Yomi

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

better upload that pretender fast then, since all the other pretenders are up and the map has been prepared...velusion could start at any time.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Under "My Home" you can configure so that you will get an e-mail when you get a PM. Works for me.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Ouch. I wrote a big analysis on Yomi long time ago - it is currently pinned down in a "Strategies and FAQ" thread on the main forum. The developers had beefed up Yomi a little in response to mine and other people concerns expressed on that thread but not by much, without addressing main Yomi issues.

Anyway, good luck. You may need it.

Thank you.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I know.. Yomi sucks = )

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Come on, nobody but me gets room to complain that their nation sucks in this game! I've got Marverni, I'll take anybody in a suck off.

Er...that came out wrong.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

giggity

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Attack Baalz quick!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I'll get on that just as soon as the game starts.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Don't bite off more than you can chew, Baalz is pretty brutal http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

server's down...I'm hoping that means the game's being started!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Oh, I know he is. I didn't say anything about ME joining in on the attack!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

The game has started!

Make sure and download the map (scroll up!) before trying to connect the first time.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Looks like Shmonk put a typo in his password so now he can't access it. Anyone mind if I give him the Masterpass?

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Sorry guys, first time in 3+ years of Dominions. I'm still trying password combos for a typo. Or I can have Velusion set me to AI, if you don't trust me with the master. But I'm trustworthy with it, I'm in this for the fun.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

i'm cool with it. with 4 years of forum membership and >400 posts I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. if you're trying to find creative ways to cheat in dominions 3 you need a life badly enough that I'm happy to give you the satisfaction of winning.

either way velusion should edit the first post to say the game has started http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I trust Shmonk will use the password responsibly. I'd say give him until tomorrow to figure out his old one, then give him the master PW in time to get his turn finished. Shmonk, be sure your toggling the caps, trying the capslock on the first character of your pw etc. I am sure you know all that, but just incase http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif. Goodluck!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

yeah. my main medium security password uses a capital letter, and three or four times I've actually managed to type it twice (in the password AND confirm password fields of something or other) with an extra cap or two - the same both times so I end up with the wrong pass.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Give him the password.

I use the same password in almost every game, and half a dozen people know it. I trust Dominions players not to cheat. And if they do, I think they know that they will be exiled from MP very quickly.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Yea, I'm trying everything - caps, only some caps, removing random characters, typing really fast, adding extra characters, everything. I'll give it a few more tries this evening, and if I still don't have it by tomorrow before it hosts, I will use the master if I am given it. Thanks all!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Most people could not spell my password anyway. It's in Vulcan http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Map's screwed up. It seems that I'm starting from a single water province in a corner, no connection to other water provinces whatsoever (and even this one appears to be land province in map picture). Of course, I could use amphibians and fight my way to the main water, only 15 provinces or so there, but it hardly seems fair. Also it seems that all main seas are not connected to each other (checked this on editor) so because there are against the starting post (and I have lost before first turn), I request a fixed map and rehost.

http://i26.tinypic.com/2mwt7qc.png

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

wow that sucks.

also note that province 123 doesn't connect to any of the sea north of it, if you're going to use the same map after a fix.

I guess this obviates the need to give out the master pass....

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Hah. Sorry... that is a funny pic though.

We are going to have to restart guys. I'm shutting down the server and will have it back up this afternoon.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Shmonk go ahead and send me a fixed pretender file as well.

velusion(at_)sbglobal.net

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Shmonk...go ahead and upload a fixed pretender rather than send it to me.

I'm fixing the map now.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Everyone also needs to delete everything in thier savedgames/figment folder as well.

The map is updated. attached is the fixed map file. Note you don't have to redownload the map - I'm only posting it here for people who are curious.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Done, new pretender uploaded.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Can you please retry this attachment? I get a completely empty 587941-Figment.txt file. If it's not too much trouble, making a .zip of just the .map should work.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Instead of an attachment use this link:

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

We are started again!

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Thank you!
