Subs for Pasha
 

I will be away from Wed. July 18 through the following Wednesday.

Ironhawk has agreed to sub for me as Niefelheim.

djo has agreed to sub as host. (I will host the current turn on Tues. July 17 and then hand over power to him.)

Thanks to both.

Pasha

Re: Subs for Pasha
 

Hi folks, your stand-in host here. Anyone who doesn't already have my email address, you can either pick it off one of Pasha's status emails, or PM me. I'd prefer that it not be posted here.

Remember, this turn to Pasha, next few to me.

Re: Subs for Pasha
 

Thanks for taking this on, djo!

Abysia ist mort
 

Alas, Cainehill...

Your stuffed Sleeping Tarrasque is waiting for you as a consolation prize.

FYI, I will be vacationing near your old stomping grounds up in Washington County again.

Pasha

Djo = host
 

Turn 37 is out. Deadline for turns is Thursday.

I have now handed over hosting to djo until I get back. You should send your turn to djo.

Thanks.

Pasha

Re: Djo = host
 

OK, folks, here's a few things:

-- deadline is 9 pm Thursday, EDT; I'm in the same time zone as Pasha, so no changes to the schedule
-- I don't check my personal email or these forums during work hours, so any problems that crop up late on one workday will have to wait until after work the next day
-- it would be nice if everyone were prompt or early for the first hosting, in case there are problems (at least the Thursday hosting has more time available for fixes)
-- I will try to email or post a turn status, but I may not, so don't rely on them!

That OK with everyone?

Status right now: I have orders from: Arco, Atlantis, Niefel, and R'lyeh (Edit) and Maverni

Re: Djo = host
 

Just waiting on Caelum...

Hosting planned for 9pm tonight EDT.

Re: Djo = host
 

Hmm, I sent it, I'll try again.

Re: Djo = host
 

I'm off to bed soon and out of town this weekend. If I don't get the new turn in the next few minutes, I might need a little extra time to get the next one in Sunday night.

Re: Djo = host
 

OK, I received QM's retry with no problem. Next time we will make a burnt offering to the gods of the aether first.

Turn 38 should be out. Next hosting, 9pm EDT Sunday. Rev. Zombie, let me know if you need more time.

I used Pasha's scripts with some modifications. If you don't receive or have a problem with a turn, email me or post here, and I'll fix it Friday evening after work.

Re: Djo = host
 

I have all turns except Yomi. Rev. Zombie said he might need more time (see two messages upthread), so I'll wait on hosting for some word from him. If we don't host tonight, I'll check my mail tomorrow before work, then after work.

Re: Djo = host
 

Turn 39 has hosted. Orders due Tuesday 9pm.

Re: Djo = host
 

I am missing Lanka's turn, so I will delay hosting for tonight.

Re: Djo = host
 

Turn 40 has been sent, not too late. Let's aim for a 9pm Thursday hosting as usual.

Continue to send turns to me; I'll forward them to Pasha when he returns. It might be easier for me to host one more turn on Thursday and switch over then, we'll see.

Re: Djo = host
 

Oh, FYI:

NEIFELHEIM RULES YOU ALL

Pasha = Back
 

Hello:

I am back after a very relaxing vacation of reading and playing low-tech games next to a lake. I even dusted off my Magic cards from 1994.

I agree with djo that it is probably easier for him to host Thursday's turn. Then I will take over hosting duties after that.

Thank you, Ironhawk, for filling in for me as Giants! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Pasha

Re: Pasha = Back
 

Turn 41 has been emailed. From now on, email turns to Pasha.

Thanks to everyone for your prompt, trouble-free turns. I wouldn't hesitate to sub-host again for this group.

Re: Pasha = Back
 

Thanks, djo, for the trouble! And welcome back Pasha.

We shall rise!
 

We have been driven out of the last corner of the seas by the hordes of R'lyeh, and now the opportunistic Caelum has seen fit to snatch up our dry refuges, even now beseiging our last castle, the old home of the Abysians. Though Barathrus guards our citadel, our people riot in their despair, and regime change has been demanded with the disastrous end of our wars.

So, the Basalt Kings and speakers to Omphalepsis have been driven from our government by popular uprising, and replaced with an AI People's Council. We may die, but we die free!

Vive la Atlantis!

Re: We shall rise!
 

The Eagle kings salute the war council of Atlantis for their long and tireless struggle against the overwhelming might of Ry'leh. With rumors of a revolution by the pariah ruler 'AI', however, we were forced to send in peacekeeping troops to insure such revolution would not destabalize the region.

Caelum, the flying turtles

Dear Forum
Our countries president Bluebird has been overthrown and replaced by THE BENEVOLENT GENERAL FERROSOL ALL HAIL FERROSOL!
Yours Sincerely

Re: Turn 49
 

Ah - too fast, just wanted to make the announcement: The great general Ferrosol was so kind to sub for me until further notice ... the kick in the but when I left the throne room still hurts. *sob*

Re: Turn 49
 

I was just looking at the graphs, admiring my downward slopes, when I noticed something I didn't understand. How did Caelum's research drop? Isn't that an aggregate that can only go up or stay flat?

Re: Turn 49
 

The graph scales to incorporate world research levels.

R\'lyah Wave
 

Sad news!

The R'lyah invasion of the once quiet lands of the Niefel Giants has been swift and merciless. Their armies are huge and well supported. I fear that they shall control Niefel's two victory point provinces in a matter of turns (maybe 3).

Re: R\'lyah Wave
 

Tentacoo wape!

Re: R\'lyah Wave
 

We apologize to the people of Caelum that our beloved hero, Udum'ukinna, did, in his return from Cocytos, mistake the eastern hemisphere for the western (or perhaps vice versa) and arrive outside the walls of what turned out to be a lightly defended fortress. Being so far from home, he is not sure what to do other than stay where he is, so there he shall stay.

The nation of Marverni is here by opening the trading season for astral gems. Anything goes in return, gold, gems, artifacts (even unique).

They will be used to nurture the moon pools in the druidic groves http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
