Cradle of Dominion is for 8-10 players but we got 15 here. Isn't it too crowded?

Good point there. Glory of the Gods would work better for this number of people

I will send my pretender when I get home from work in 6 hours. Sorry for the late send, it was late last night when I signed up then had to go straight to work! So do I send my pretender to *removed*

GoG will be fine.

Should be "karsten" instead of "korsten".

Hey guys, I'll be sending in my god in about 6 hours barring disaster. Thanks for your patience http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.

It probably won't matter because of the misspelling, but there IS a reason Ich went to the trouble to post his email in an image rather than directly, you know.

Yes, the font is kind of hard to read, although definitely not impossible. But you could ask about the letters without posting the exact address in plaintext. That kind of defeats the whole purpose of the image.

ghostwes May 1st, 2008 06:52 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
Yeah, spambots are finding their way right now, no doubt. Or they would, had someone spelled it right, heh.

That said, the font used in the image was a bit difficult to read. The O and A look the same to me.

Sorry, :-/ I'll edit it out

edit: actually it doesn't matter because its mispelt

How many pretenders missing?

ghostwes May 2nd, 2008 09:23 AM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
Waiting for:

gowb: Patala
Greifor: Caelum
hunt11: Bogarus

Griefor May 2nd, 2008 02:34 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
? I sent it in a while ago... and never received a message telling me of a failure to deliver.

Ah well, guess I'll resend.

lch May 2nd, 2008 03:00 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
Only waiting on Patala now.

Let's set some house rules then: If somebody misses the hosting timer twice (so he'd stale a turn repeatedly) he risks being removed from the game by either getting replaced with another player or being set to AI.

To not let it come to this: in case something pops up and somebody needs an extension for whatever reason, tell me about this in time by replying to the turn status notifications sent via email or by sending me a PM over the forums so that I either reset the game timer or turn it off completely. You should post in the game thread then, too.

Arghaii, I hope you'll fare better this game than in the last.

Actually I got it the first time, too, but since you sent a pretender for MA Abysia for another game to the same address I erroneously skipped both mails.

Griefor May 2nd, 2008 03:09 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
I see.

Could you use the second one I sent you though? I altered it somewhat and I really prefer the second version. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Arghaii May 2nd, 2008 05:10 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
I had no internet connection last time, so there was no way I could warn of my staling turns.

But don't brand me for one time, when I've been good with games for over a year now http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

ghostwes May 3rd, 2008 07:20 AM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
How long are we going to wait for Patala?

hunt11 May 3rd, 2008 05:57 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
i send him a PM about not sending his god, which should get some type of response

Arghaii May 4th, 2008 09:17 AM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
If not, could we start this by tonight, weekend ahead and all?
12 players is not bad afterall.

hunt11 May 4th, 2008 09:48 AM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
Ich, could you start the game soon because by the looks of it gowb is not going to be playing

alctel May 4th, 2008 05:03 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
as above http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
Yes, I will start the game as soon as I find time for it, but it won't be in the next 12 hours. You will all get an email from the server telling you how to connect when it goes up.

hunt11 May 4th, 2008 08:19 PM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
thanks for the info

what map are we using anyway? I ask cause i didn't see one attached

hunt11 May 5th, 2008 05:43 AM

Re: New LA game for new players sign up now
 
we're going to use glory of the gods as the map

lch May 5th, 2008 06:41 PM

Game has started
 
The game has started, you should have received an email with the information how to connect. You'll get these emails whenever the server hosts and a new turn becomes ready. If you don't want to receive these messages anymore, in case you get defeated in the game for example, then tell me about this by replying to the notification mail and asking to get removed.

Good luck and have fun!

Griefor May 5th, 2008 07:21 PM

Thanks for hosting the game Ich!

Thank you Ich! Let's move...

ghostwes May 5th, 2008 07:52 PM

Re: Game has started
 
Thank you, Ich.

Hmm, I finished my turn but it doesn't appear to have updated the status script. Does it take a while to register, or have I done something wrong?

Also, on the map I noticed there are a few territories that have little golden crowns in them. What does this mean?

That's still under investigation. Normally it should have the right information. Can you tell me on what operating system you are?

Those are victory points. If you conquer the provinces, your god's dominion score will raise by one. They get created automatically for server games started from the command line even without a VP win condition, don't ask me why...

I lucked out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif, I just got back from vacation and the game has started. Lucky me!

I also sent a "good luck all" message to everyone. Can anyone confirm that they got this? Might assist in troubleshooting...

We won't see your message until next turn. Try to end your turn by pressing "E".

Re: Game has started
 
ghostwes, it's not a real problem, just an oddity of your game version. If you see your nation's flag and there is no red X on top of it in the game status screen, then you have played your turn. The web status pages are correct most of the time, but not 100%. I already have code which is 100% correct, but that one needs more polish and has less functionality, too.

hunt11 May 6th, 2008 05:43 AM

when ever i try to join the network, even when i enter the right code it says it cannot connect

Sorry, "game status screen"? Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean the link you gave us? I don't see my nation's flag anywhere, nor do I see a red X.

I guess if you think the turn was submitted properly, I'll just cross my fingers and wait.

Hmmm, does this mean I will have to manually announce each time that I have completed my turn? Should I do so here?

lch May 6th, 2008 10:33 AM

Re: Game has started
 
With "game status screen" I mean the window that the game itself shows you after you connect to the server.

hunt11, have you input the server address and port as shown in the email after going through "Network -> Connect to a Dominions server" in the game? Do you get a password dialog?

ghostwes May 6th, 2008 11:16 AM

Re: Game has started
 
OK, I see what you mean now. It does indeed tell me that I have played my turn. And I guess it also shows other players that I have as well, which is a bit of a relief.

hunt11 May 6th, 2008 03:24 PM

Re: Game has started
 
if anybody needs anything forged, if you send me the gems and a bit extra i will be able to forge it

My turn is now showing up as complete on your page, Ich. Odd. And it looks like we're only waiting for Dexylen now.

Timer reset.

nothing is happening, the timer has gone into negatives instead
