My bigger concern is Abysia...

He is the one who sent in a pretender and never asked to join the game. I PM'd him and told him we where full but when Cerain joined we decided to go ahead and let him in.

He has never acknowledged that he is in or out...

I thought I would wait until I heard from Tru and Lama and if he hasn't contacted me I will delete his pretender and start the game.

That sound Fair to all?

Hello!
Abysia
I will play ! )

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Ok Darwin, your in...read this forum as there are some rules that we have come up with and you should know about them.

If you have any questions just ask someone as I think they are all aware of what tthey are and how they work or yoy can PM me and we will talk about it.

Just waiting now for Trumanator and Frozen Lama to report...anyone know what time zone they are in?

I need a Nap before Rugby Practice...

Will check in before leaving and don't worry we won't wait too long for them as they will have 24 hours to do their turns.

GrudgeBringer August 14th, 2009 06:54 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I was just getting ready to Push the button and start the game when one of the players E-mailed me asking where the Map was.

Now I am not sure if he had 1.5 enabled when he sent in his pretender as he is very new.

Excuse me for yelling please...

DOES EVERYONE HAVE THE DARKHEAVENS MAP D/L AND DID YOU HAVE CBM 1.5 ENABLED WHEN YOU MADE YOUR PRETENDER.

Thanks you...

I am off to Rugby practice and IF he responds that he is ready I am going to kick this thing off.

Frozen Lama August 14th, 2009 08:38 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
OK guys, i'm back! i went ahead and started the game. 48h for the first turn. good luck all.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Just one question: where can you download this damn map??
I cannot find it on this forum and the llamaserver site has the map in the list but no download link.

I am having trouble with the TRN file.

I put it in my Saved games folder but it doesn't show up in games.

Any suggestions as this has never happened before.

DUH!!! Nevermind:doh:

Hey! Me too! No I did not create my god while I had the map dark havens as I was led to believe it was cradle we were playing... I wouldn't think the maps make a difference anyways...

GrudgeBringer August 14th, 2009 09:59 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Map doesn't matter as long as you have it..

In your saved game file (sorry if I am being to basic)

Go to computer, local files, Program files, dominions3, saved game and put your TRN file in there.

Make a file that says VisiousCircle2 (no spaces) and put the TRN file in there.

Should work like a charm

it will make a 2H file that is the file you send in.

Eldanesh August 14th, 2009 10:01 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Yes I knew how to do it so I was a bit confounded.

Yes, there was a space in the name of my folder...

aaminoff August 14th, 2009 10:04 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Folks were posting what nations they ended up picking... will there eventually be a master list of who is who?

I'm Helheim. Er, I think our sprites look cooler than all of y'alls. Also I have small children so I may be slow with turns sometimes.

GrudgeBringer August 14th, 2009 10:10 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
If you go to the first thread Visious Circle 2 Recruiting

The list is there except Fomoria is Ulm and Lanks is Fomoria rest should be correct

Edanesh....LOL, that was my problem also!!

Squirrelloid August 15th, 2009 12:59 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
The trn file would of course be sent right after I left my computer for the night... (in the middle of moving - its complicated)

Cerain August 15th, 2009 07:07 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Ok, the game is rolling ;P

Ishamoridin August 15th, 2009 09:21 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Are we running on a 48h host or is that just for turn 1?

Fakeymcfake August 15th, 2009 11:44 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Just for turn one I believe. Also, I'll be out of town this weekend so I'd appreciate it if when turn 2 does roll around and it looks as though I won't be able to get mine in before hosting if you could delay the game say 12 hours or so.

Ishamoridin August 15th, 2009 12:01 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Hey GB, is there any chance you'd be able to make a list of players and nations at the start of this thread? It'd save about 10 minutes every time we want to know who's who :P

Frozen Lama August 15th, 2009 12:29 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
the hosting time will go back to 24h after the first turn.

fakey-gotcha, me and GB will make sure you don't stale.

Fakeymcfake August 15th, 2009 01:38 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Thanks, oh and I'm Nief if anyone was wondering. Alternatively to makeing a new list just link to the old list in the other thread.

Frozen Lama August 15th, 2009 01:58 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
ok here's the link- remember formoria is Ulm, and Lanka is Formoria

Does Hinnom even know he's playing? How complicated can Hinnom turn 1 be?

Squirrelloid August 15th, 2009 11:13 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Grudgebringer, could you please update the first post of this thread with the forum names and nations of all participants? If this is going to be the active game thread then that information should be right up front where its easy to find so conducting diplomacy is *actually possible*.

Forum has been updated to reflect all Players and their Nations.

My apologies if I misspelled any ones name or nation as I whipped this out right before leaving town for the day.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
GrudgeBringer, just to make it easier on people who want to contact me, my spelling is "Iainuki." No big deal, just get to it when you can?

Squirrelloid August 16th, 2009 02:41 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I was going to wait until monday to point out he also managed to misspell my name. The easy part too... (Squirrelloid). I mean, "squirrel" is the easy part, right?

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 03:58 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Picky picky gentlemen....

With a name like Grudgebringer (GrungeBringer,GrudeBringer, Grudbriner) I just answer to anything.

But for PM purposes I will go in and change your names, thanks for pointing it out as it could have honestly been a problem in Diplomacy later.

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 04:16 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I guess one rule begets another....

I have had a number of people query me on if this is OK or that is OK, and most are pretty obvious answers.

But I HAVE had a couple of questions that really did take me by surprise as I thought I had this 7 nap rule thing down (best laid plans etc)

You stealth Nations...you can NOT enter, go thru, or sit in any one's Provinces (including ANY around the Capitols) before the 8th turn. In other words you can't prepare to attack a nation and be in his lands waiting for the word GO...

The question "What if they do that and just wait till turn 9 and THEN attack". Well, we have 18 people, some will be honorable, some won't, I can't enforce things I can't see or know. We just have to depend on each player to play it straight.

This came up also (although its a little early and don't think it will matter i will address it), NORMAL scouts are OK to enter ANYONES lands before turn 8. However, Nothing that can cause harm or detriment to a nation either THEN or before turn 8 can enter.

I think that about covers it....:up:

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 04:23 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I waited as long as I could before delaying hosting 12 hours for Fakey McFake as he had requested it yesterday.

I think (hope) once we get thru this weekend we will get rolling pretty fast.:D

Ishamoridin August 16th, 2009 06:07 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
likewise, my name is spelled Ishamoridin

Ishamoridin August 16th, 2009 06:22 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Also, does the 'province next to capital' rule apply when it's a land province next to a sea capital or vice versa?

Cerain August 16th, 2009 06:22 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
GrudgeBringer, you aren't making possible me to buy any mercenary all are for you.:envy: ;) I loved the barbarians xD

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 07:19 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I would say since there is only 1 water nation that any land nation that can go into the water May NOT take a water province next to the Water nations Capitol.

But a land nation CAN take ANY land province that is not next to a Land capitol as water nations have mostly free expansion.

That's MY take....any other opinions (that never entered ny mind).

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 07:21 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Man....excuse the spelling people, I am trying to do 3 things at once and am barely looking at what I am writing.:doh:

aaminoff August 16th, 2009 11:23 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
If everyone gets their turn 3s in in the next few hours, it is conceivable that I will need extra time for turn 4 as I may not have even a few minutes to do my next turn before Tuesday morning. However I think there is only about a 10% chance that this will be a problem.

GrudgeBringer August 16th, 2009 11:38 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I will check when I go to the Gym in the Morning (about 9 Hours), if everyone has thier turn in I will postpone it 12 hours but get it in as soon as you can so no one starts yelling

Trumanator August 17th, 2009 12:06 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Seriously Grudge, all these complications and clarifications are just another reason why NOT to have no-rush rules... I will respect them, but noobs need to learn that rushing is part of the game.

Frozen Lama August 17th, 2009 12:48 AM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
well after seeing my neighbors, i'm cool with the rush rules ;)

my real reason for posting- i will be gone for 3 days starting tomorrow, so Valerius will be subbing for me.

Fakeymcfake August 17th, 2009 12:19 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
The rush rules will only apply for a few more turns anyhow and it'll at least make things sporting when there is conflict. 'sides, as someone who's first game was ended on turn 8 I can appreciate how frustrating that can be.

Squirrelloid August 17th, 2009 12:25 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
Someone's game may still end on turn 8.

*strokes goatee evilly*

GrudgeBringer August 17th, 2009 01:54 PM

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 
I don't understand why we keep waiting on *one* person for turns. Seriously, its turn 3, it shouldn't take 24h to take that turn. (It only took me so long because I *moved* yesterday, and was too exhausted to set up my computer until this morning - and by so long i mean taken and submitted like 4h ago).
