Oh yeah, TheBirthDayParty expressed interest to play Abysia, so things are looking good indeed. Hopefully the new players can acclimate them to the situation over the weekend and we'll get rolling next week. What hosting schedule do you prefer, by the way? The turns do take some time at this point, so we can go to e.g. 48h if desired.

No need for extra time. Checking the health of the walls and the size of our supplies does not take that long. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Kidding aside, I am fine with going to 48 hours, though I do not exactly need it myself.

Re: starting?
 

are the new players almost ready (giving passwords etc.)
and for turns i am good for a faster turns at the moment but now w/ (hopefully) a non-stalling crowd we will be able to do a turn before the timer runs out. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smirk.gif
ps funny turning Ulm into AI w/ no warning. he suddenly jumped up and bite me.

Re: starting?
 

Well, the passwords and such are sent, but both seem to have some technical issues to conquer.

As usual http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Conquering.
Also, it'd be good to make sure that everyone new knows the house rules (7 soul contracts, no more than 15 of any gem-producing item).

Re: starting?
 

Oh well, such seems to be this game's karma. Wonder what it did to deserve this. Probably KO'd a cow or something.

What remaining players we have seem reliable and patient enough, though, so I'm positive we'll get back to business sometime this year.

Hey, Alneyan, would you consider taking over Abysia if TheBirthDayParty can't get his connection to work? I could even hasten Arcos' demise to that end, if necessary! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: starting?
 

what is the rule on finding clams/fetishes after you have your limit (from conquest or as gifts(not that anyone would give ermor a gift http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif)). i would guess finding clams etc on the battle field would be fine but gift would not?

Re: starting?
 

As far as I'm concerned, as long as you've only got 15 clams equipped at any one time it's cool. If you want to fill your lab with junk you can't use, be my guest.

So sell 'em to the highest bidder, I say... Or better yet, give them to Man as reparations before he kicks your ***! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: starting?
 

I think you should be able to use loot, those few pearls won´t make a difference, unless two clowns start trading clams via battle loot.
Gifts would be silly and totally violate the spirit of the rule.
