Rofl.

As much as I would love to share this confidence in ultimate Mictlan supremacy, I'm forced to concede that the loss (with no compensation) of 3 fully equipped devils per turn is not sustainable.

The harsh reality is that success I've had has been 100% due to the element of surprise - an asset that is now fully spent. Now you hold the most important asset - experience.

For example: How many noobs do you know who, against an astral opponent, would leave two fully equipped arch devils out in the open with no Mind Hunt protection? I only know of one. :rolleyes:

Politicking aside, this has been a great game, it's taught me a lot and I've enjoyed it immensely. I'd like to win, of course, but even if I don't I'm sure I'll look back on it as a highlight of my Dom career.

Turn postponed by 24 hours at Digress's request.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

I would like to request that hosting goes to a 36 hour interval. I am finding scripting the old druids is taking a while.

My suggestion that an all out attack on Mictlan would be a good idea still holds - I know I ain't getting any stronger.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

I concur with the first half of that. :)
The turnaround shall be set to 36 hours.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

Hrumph - nothing works.
This is really demoralizing :(

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

The price of treachery my friend, the price of treachery :)

Thanks for the Ice Devil - Bifrons is my favourite and plays best with my mages.

And what happened to "highlight of my career" ;)

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

No, as I've said before, its the price of inexperience.

That's exactly what the early part of the game has been, but its going downhill now. I don't think anyone enjoys banging their head against a brick wall.

Its a vicious cycle. I don't enjoy the endgame, so I don't practice it, so I don't get good at it, so I don't enjoy it.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

Okay Zap asked me to take over for him as Mictlan (and admin I guess) so I'm back in.

Could someone (everyone?) PM me and let me know who I am at war and peace with?

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

You are certainly at war with Marveni. And really, really should be at war with everyone else but I am pretty sure you are not.

I would like to say any arch devils or ice devils not currently in your roster are cursed, horror marked and afflicted shadows of their former selves - but again I am not sure that is true.

Sadly I suspect Neifelheim and I have been reduced to playing the roles of unidentifiable roadkill #1 and unidentifiable roadkill #2.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

Could I request a 24 hour extension - I should be able to get the turn in on schedule if things go to plan - but work today has been messy.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

Yah, I'm pretty much roadkill at this point. It would have been nice to have just a few more provinces so that I could have afforded researchers as well as Niefel Jarls.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

24 hours added

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

Sorry about the recent stale. Got the timing wrong.

Marveni having only two blood mages is proving to be something of a drawback as Mictlan's dom-push is biting (along with the menacing gangs of vampires flitting about).

A couple more turns is all I have left (if that).

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

oops i forgot to submit my turn because i got busy at work. 24 hours added and I will try to get it in sooner

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

crap work is still crazy and I'm sick too. sorry for another delay but I have to add 24 hours.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

hmmm keep posing in the same vein. i'm too sleepy to finish my turn tonight, I'll do it in the morning. 12 hours added

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

I managed to stale - sorry everyone.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

damn i woke up this morning ready to play my turn and noticed it was too late. Crap crap crap. I'm going to stop procrastinating now...

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

so my real life has become too busy for dominions and I have to retire. I have posted a sub ad to take over my nation. Would someone here like to be admin?

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

I am pretty much finished as a going concern in this game.

I apologise for the repeated stales - it was entirely accidental. As penance I am willing to both admin and continue to defend the ever shrinking borders of Marveni.

Re: Hurt_Locker (Started)
 

okay admin password PM'd to digress. good game, good luck and goodbye
