Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--6/10 Taken
 

I'm not too fussed to be honest although I do think EDM would be cool even with Vanilla just to diversify things a bit. Tartarians as the only viable non-unique SC is kinda dull. Also I wanna summon a [S]Balrog[/S] Ember lord.

So whats the strikethrough tag these days?

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--6/10 Taken
 

Hey, Sopita, I got that message... you're in as Pythium.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--6/10 Taken
 

Hey, all. I think I'm going to make this my last vanilla game, but I would need some SP experience with CBM and EDM before I felt comfortable playing them in MP, so I'm going to stick with vanilla this one last time.

Sephorin... you said you'd be in, you just need to decide which nation, so I'll put you in the list as "undecided".

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

Okay, a vanilla free-for-all it is! Are we banning Ashdod? If not then I will take them. Otherwise, I will take Ermor.

Thanks, earwicker!

:) :up:

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

I know very little about which nations should be banned... can anyone come up with any reasons for banning anyone?

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

Stronger nations will get ganged more, so I vote against banning one.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

Makes sense.

Sephorin, you're in as Ashdod.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

Right! So we should all gang up on Pythium first! :D

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

Bumping this to try to keep it at the top... only two more people and we're ready to go! If, for some reason, no more people come, we could probably swing eight players, but let's give it a little more time.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

Pythium is weak. I´m sure it´s player is kind and willing to cooperate.
Better we should gang up on Ashdod. :p

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

There's no one kinder than the giants of Ashdod. We're like big fluffy sheep. We mill around making soft bleating noises and never bother anyone.

Pythium, though.... they have lots of nasty mages who mindhunt and soulslay. Bad for everyone.

Anything negative you have heard about Ashdod is just propaganda.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

Hopefully we can get a couple of more people. :) I personally would prefer a smaller map if we will only have eight players. (Maybe Pargonos or Land of Ethereal Squirrels?)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

If you still have space, I'd like to sign up.

I've got one MP game, on llamaserver - currently up to turn 36 with no stales:

http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo....ion_of_the_Den

Korwin should be able to vouch for me, as I believe he set up the game I am playing.

I haven't given too much thought to what nation I'd like, I'll ponder that while I wait to hear if I am in or not. :)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--For noobies with a record of no staling!--8/10 Taken
 

And that means that everyone should ignore the truly weakest MA nation of Arcoscephale and let us sit in our corner. What could anyone do with Arco anyway? A whole lotta nothin'! Thats what! We just wanna gaze our stars. Is that too much to ask?

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

Yep, Jim is playing Hinnom in "Dominion of the Den" with no stalles.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

Thks Earwicker for organizing.

Please sign me in. Note that I staled accidentally once in 60+ turns. I'll ask my game admin (from Troubling Times) to vouch for me.

As for the Nation, I'll choose one soon.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

Yay! So we have 9 people plus 1 sheepish Ashdod for a total of 10. (So long as Earwicker is okay with that one stale from Numahr, of course.)

Nosantee, I agree that Arco should be ignored as well. Perhaps we can form an alliance for benign and morally upright nations who never bother anyone. ;)

(Of course, I'm kidding about the alliance. I would never make treaties with someone I haven't met in game.)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

You're in... let me know who you want to play.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

I can live with one accidental in 60 turns; you're in pending admin vouching. I'll just put you down as "Probably" :)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Put the game up and lets start submitting pretenders! Woo!

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

So, folks, assuming Numahr is able to get his admin to vouch for him, we've got ten! Woohoo!

I'll let everyone know once I've received the final word on him, and then I figure we give everyone a couple of days to consider the other nations and make their pretenders.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Just waiting on vouching for the final player.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

After much head scratching, I have decided to opt for MA Ermor.

While we wait for the final confirmation, I will start pondering the design of my pretender.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

You know now that I think of it, do we have to have score graphs disabled? :3

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Per first post disabled.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

I like the mystery ;)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

While we wait for my beloved admin to vouch for me... Let me announce that the mighty Nation of Shinumaya will join the feast under my command.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Alright, I'll put you down as pending Shinuyama. Light a fire under that admin's feet lol.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--ONLY 2 SPOTS LEFT!!
 

All powerful game admin to the rescue! :)

I'd have absolutely no reservations of letting Numahr join any game I admin or play in in the future. He did indeed stale once, I can't even remember the reason, but I do remember it being very reasonable. Apart from that the couple of extension request for business trips and the like were nicely on time so I could plan things in advance, and he was accomodating in trying to play his turns early right before leaving and/or late right after returning to keep the game running smoothly. Also volunteered to assign starting locations on the map for the game start, and active in the game thread, so as far as 64 turns can tell I'd call him an exemplary player.


So, does that earn me the promised crate of beer Numahr? :up:

So we are ready to start? Good.
(Lost - just now - last province in Dominions of the Den, so its perfectly timed for me)
*goes looking at his pretender build some more*

Edit: Oh, last post on the last page is important... dont want to hide it with my post...

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Alright, everyone, the game is up: http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo....adleToTheGrave

If anyone needs it, my email is earwicker777@hotmail.com; that is also my Windows Messenger name.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Also, everyone please post here once you've sent your pretender in, so that I can delete anyone if they happen to try to sneak in with your nation.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Korwin, is that your Bandar Log?

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Bandar Log submitted its Pretender.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Yes, it is.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Pretender submitted for Ashdod: the Sheep.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Pretender Submited for Arco: Awake Wyrm.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

It will be about 12 hours before I can get my pretender in. Will post once it is done.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

12 hours! My god, man...

Just kidding, take your time ;)

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Sheep regularly eat worms for breakfast. :D

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Patatra! I just realized that my whole Shinumaya strategy was designed for CBM only. Please change me to Agartha...

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Finally got my pretender just about right. Sent!

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Still tweaking it, sorry. Working on it, I promise!

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Pitimini, Pretender of Phythium sent.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Gweldorf, is that your Marignon pretender?

Assuming it is, we just need Tien Chi, Ermor, and Agartha to submit their pretenders, so we're almost there!

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

tien chi pretender sent.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Dear colleages pretenders,

Experimentations in the Agarthan depths started relatively late compared to other nations, but are progrssing fast. I need still a little bit more time to tweak this mysterious civlization's Pretender. I think 24 hours will do it.

Thanks for understanding.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

Yep, that's my Marignon.

Re: Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL
 

No problem.

So we only need Agartha and Ermor, and we're on.
