Set me to Jotunheim then, plz.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Have you figured it out how to set glory of the gods yet or not,
If you can't fix it maybe it would be better to use a random map

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I've just set up the LlamaServer to accept pretenders for this game (going away for the weekend and didn't want to hold it up). Check my FAQ if you're not sure how.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Before sending the pretenders the mods have to be agreed, otherwise there will be som errors. So please Aezeal, make a lits of the mods used, if any, on first page, ok?

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Since my nation, Caelum, isn't added to the first post yet I'm going to take this opportunity to change my mind and play Man instead. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'm thinking
1. standards n streamers mod
2. Worthy heroes
3. quickfix 3.15

now added to first post

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

what is standards & streamers mod? Does it do something useful?

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

it gives nice standards http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif
you look at standards the whole game through so it's pretty usefull to have AT LEAST one thing in dom that looks nice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

no offence KO

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

ow and I think we'll start somewhere mid next week, try to get pretenders done about mon/tue max I want the first turn done before friday

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Just a note - if we're only using standards and streamers and worthy heroes (plus this quickfix aezeal mentioned) we can send our pretenders in regardless as to whether you have those mods. As far as I know, there should be no problem because none of the potential mods have anything to do with pretender creation/costs

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

As far as I see these mods don't really change anything,
only standards of course, I guess they are much easier to recognise this way, but I don't like my skeleton head on the standard now! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

yeah I thought so too, anywy the mods are in the first post so no need not to have them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'm going away for a week so Psycho will be taking over... will start the first 3-4 turns for me, just so everybody knows. I'll be back on monday, or thursday the latest to take over.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Will we be starting anytime soon? Still only 4 people with their pretenders in.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

we will be starting wednesday I figure, thursday at the latest..

personally I'm still figuring out MA pythium http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'll send my pretender soonishly, still some fine tuning to do.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'm also preparing mine, I expect it to be ready today or at most tomorrow.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I see I have a late shift tomorrow so I'll only be starting things wednesday evening at earliest.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Lol, I changed my nation one more time, to Vanheim this time, since I would have needed more time to make a suitable pretender for Man or Caelum.

Anyways, god of Vanheim is now sent to Llamaserver and I'm ready to start. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Hmm, I just noticed the bit about 'cheapest tricks'

Does this only include bugs (like the mists of deception exploit), or also controversial things that were nonetheless proclaimed WAD (working as designed), like archer decoys, schorched earth, "wills", commander trading, and copying bogus's orders?

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Only MoD tricks and Bogus' orders copying warrant ban in my opinion.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Managing illegal movements should be banned too, along with Mists and copying Bogus orders.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I agree with LDiCesare.... illegal movement, bogus orders, shouldn't be allowed... but I cannot see how, say, archer decoys should not be allowed, or scorched earth tactics. These all seem like suitable and sometimes appropriate strategies, as opposed to some sort of exploit in the game that you know how to manipulate. Another example of such an exploit would be filling your opponents treasury with slave collars - as a "strategy," presenting your opponent with multiple gifts makes no sense, and thus it is merely an exploit.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

What is this movement exploit? I've heard about it before but I don't know what it actually is but it indeed sounds like something that shouldn't be allowed.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

mist/illegal movement/bogus/flooding treasury with collars = out of game
scorched earth/archer decoys and any other placemetn stuff is just strat and is allowed

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Really sorry to do this but I'm gonna have to pull out of this game. I seem to have ended up in more games than is wise!

Sorry guys.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

mind if i take over as c'tis?

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'm no game admin but I'd say go ahead so we get this game started.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

sure take over send in a pretender

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

pretender sent

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Almost ready to start, eh? Come on people, get those pretenders in!

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I just checked llamaserver, all pretenders except for eriu and r'lyeh are there.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

How bout we give em two days and then possibly start without them? Its been a week, I believe.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Ryleh pretender sent. Sorry for the delay.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I send eriu (evildesirez) a message to send pretender ASAP

we start saterday at the latest with or without him

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

ANYONE is welcome to send in a Eriu pretender and play the game!!!
first come first go

we start tomorrow

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I'll send an Eiru pretender ASAP.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

that would be good.. I asked llama to get the game starting saturday but I've got no clue if I gave him all info he needs... we'll see

Once it's started the game should run more easily http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Yay! Game has started. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I demand more conversation in here.

Also I'd like the water nation in the southern waters to report to me, a chat might be nice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

For some reason I haven't received my new turn, and the "turn resend" option isn't working on the llamaserver. Never had this problem before, and i've PM'd llamabeast, but please delay a bit if it looks like I might stale.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

I changed your e-mail so try that now
also I have set the host time 12 hours later as you requested.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

SO what's happening.

wars already?

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Yes, you and me.... you didn't notice? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Ow it was your pretender that got swallowed by my hydra's..

PS I think hydra's SHOULD be poor amphibians...

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Thanks me that they aren't http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

For those interested (and because I can't get enough MP dominions) I am organizing a new llamaserver LA game, entitled "The End of Time." Sign up on the thread in the forum if you'd like to join. Note that nations will be assigned randomly.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Looks like Mictlan sprouts castles pretty fast.

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

prolly wants more cheap sacreds.

I'm willing to bet more nations will have castles next turn though...

might be a good time to rush mitlan too.. since all cash is castles

Re: Aquarium - MA game - PBEM - 10-15 player
 

Actually, Mictlan only sprouts castles fast because he got very, very lucky for someone with a misfortune scale.

BTW, can we rehost this last turn? 3 of us staled, as llamaserver did not recognize my turn file, though I may have sent one in for the wrong game. If no one else wants to, though, its okay.
