crone icon.
 
I see on the map that some icons have a golden crone. Are those Victory Point provinces ?

I did not code anything into the map except 12 starting locs,
and the "many magical sites" for the few provinces that had either a volcano on it, or the stone henge things.

I also changed all the waste provinces to either forest, farms, etc. Though the waste symbol remains on the map(i did not know how to remove it) there are in fact no waste provinces on this map.

Other than those changes, I did nothing. Llama may have done something on his end like add victory points if he wanted to use the map for future games, but i did not.

I am putting the host back on 24 hours. If you cannot do your turn on a 24 hour basis, I ask that you try and find someone you trust to do a few turns for you.

In July i will be out of state for 10 days and llama does not know it yet, but i am counting on him keeping my empire in stable condition while i am gone!

I'm sure that won't be a problem Xietor http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

As for the crowns - nothing to do with me, but Dominions seems to randomly add them to maps. Not sure why (haven't looked into it), but I think they have been in most of the MP games I've been in. They don't get you victory (since you're not playing a VP victory condition), but each one does have a 50% chance of producing a candle each turn for the owner, so they have some value anyway.

Dragon - glad to hear it worked.

I just sent in my turn file, sorry for the delay (was out of town.)

Yes. Those pop up even if you don't set VPs as a winning conditions, especially if you start a textmode server. I have not yet found out how to disable it. They do increase your dominion by one, so each one is worth five temples.

Re: Common courtesy reminder
 
While this is not binding, it is considered common courtesy if you are the last person to do a turn, to wait 5 minutes until the game has processed and sent you a new turn, and send that turn in as well. That way you are not always the last one to delay hosting.

All other things being equal, some players base their decisions on who to go to war with by who is holding up the game. I kid you not.

Re: Server down?
 
Is anyone having an issue doing their turns? I did mine earlier, but the server appears to be down-at least I cannot access it.

Re: Server down?
 
the status page has been down for me for several hours already. I was able to send in my turn though, and received a confirmation that my turn had been received.

Re: Server down?
 
Hi guys,

I meant to say, the website's going bananas, and I'm quite frustrated because it's something I can't fix myself, I have to wait for some admin to do it.

Anyway, the website is a completely different computer to the server. If the website goes down the server will carry on regardless. The chances of the server itself going down are much much smaller.
