You know, I now believe Ano did not think it was abuse. I overreacted, because I thought it was deliberate, but after reading threads, it is clear that this is considered abuse since not long, so Ano just did not know of change.

Still, bad taste from this whole thing.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Come on! lets calm down and try to have fun, after all that is why we are in a noobie game, there are things we might not know, Ano just made a mistake an Nikolai just pointed out other things that could be done, end of the story. I have learned a couple of things I didnt know before this problem so i am happy with it :-)

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Nihil, you are so going down on my hitlist.

*writes Ermor on Hitlist*

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Actually I've done my turn already. Things went better than I expected.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

My turn got reset, dunno why. Dominions must be buggy. I'll take it ASAP. However, I don't have time to right now.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

I cannot connect again... It's the damn "Getting game info" for ever. Tonight I'll try 50 times in row.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

This is a problem that has popped up before in several network games.

You can try playing windowed instead of full screen. Start the game and connect, and get stuck on "Getting game info".

Do not close the window!

Start another instance of the game in a new window. This new instance of the game should connect okay.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

This worked, thanks!

It seems to be computer related. I always get it from my own, but when I take my turn from nephew house, it always works. Could it be from different keys for some player?

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Some C'tis chariot merchants seem to have gotten lost and found their way into my land. I'm sorry to say that I already have chariots of my own and am not interested in buying...I suggest you try to sell your chariots to someone else.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Oh, mr. Archoscephale, sorry about that. You're going to laugh when you hear my excuse. Well, one of my Shamans took a heavy blow to the head during a battle with Yomi. He lost the ability to cast spells so I told him to take a few chariots and attack something. His feeblemind couldn't tell the difference between a black flag and a blue flag.

I hope you die at the hands of Niefelheim's giants! As soon as I'm done with Yomi, I'm coming for you.

In other news, Atlantis is quite the splinter in my side. He keeps going in and out of the sea, too afraid of my great forces to stay on land for tool long.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

That all sounds nice, folks, but who will deal with Ermor?.. It seems I understand now how Ermorian legions conquered the world while other nations were fighting each other.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

I don't know, he's not my responsibility. There's too many other nations in the way for me to go after him. The people surrounding Ermor is just not doing their job it seems.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

They should, they should...

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Dealing with me? What have I done to you? I have very good relations with all my neighbours... well... nearly all. I am sure we two would also get along pretty well :-)

You should come to visit me ;-b

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Hm... You did nothing to me yet. But I'm afraid you will.

Well, I think it'll be rather hard. I'd rather see you in my lands.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Hah! Not good relations. Good fear tactics. Your neighbors are foolish horses!

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

This game has become insane. I thought I knew what transpires, well, no. There are too many wars going on, and not the ones I expected.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Is anyone finding the initial post of this thread useful for communication? I personally just hate it if you're playing a game and the initial post doesn't have information on who is who.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Yeah, the flags are a nice touch.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

The game has been paused until further notice. Nikolai has not submitted a turn and I have heard nothing from him.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

No need for pause. I knew I would come home in time for turn, and I did. Weekends are not to be wasted, even if you sixty :-)

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Alright Nikolai. I hope your killing of Lanka is going well because I might need your help soon. I'm the enemy of Arcosephale, Atlantis, Yomi, and R'lyeh.... It seems I've made too many enemies.

A message to R'lyeh: Enjoy your stay... while you are alive. You won't last long on land.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

guess you got to many "splinters" in your side now?

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

fear my atlantian slave troops!

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

My killing on Lanka'd gone better if everyone who talked me had helped. As it is - I am running with diseased and poisoned troops...

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Do I understand right that the hosting interval has been increased to 18 hours? I am completely agree that it's right time for this but I think it should be indicated here.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Nikolai, I have plenty of gems, you just never requested any.

Ano: How did you figure the interval was increased 18 hours? Hosting time hasn't changed, I just can't be bothered to make sure the server hosts at the same amount of time every time.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

It just seems so... Maybe I am wrong. I'd like to ask once again to increase the turn time to 48 hours starting at least from turn 40. If anyone wants it too, obviously.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

ill agree to that.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Arigtoth, I did not need gems, I just thought that I would besiege his capital where you said it was, and that you would keep attacking Lanka. As is, I ended up fighting over a castle that did not matter, you invaded Arco, and Lanka is doing just great. Instead of short decisive victory, I'm running home, aggressor AND beaten :-(

Bad planning and coordination. Ah well, I hope for better luck next game.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Nikolai... ME does not = Jotunheim.

ME = C'tis. However, I do have a lot of influence over Jotunheim. Although I didn't have enough influence to convince him to help you finish Lanka since Lanka requested that Jotunheim stop attacking him. lol.

Nikolai, if you're really having trouble then I really don't want you to lose. You got into this battle mainly because of me and I want to take responsibility. Just let me know how I can help.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Oh. my. god. I am an idiot. You can definitely not blamed for me thinking YOU are Jotunheim, and I relying on HIS support.

Just shoot me. This whole game has been a total mess. Yeah, front page says it all, but I always thought the e-mails came from Jotunheim.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

There's going to be a pause until Abysia can take his turn which will be on Friday in some part of the world...lol

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

I have just taken my turn, and it's 08:48 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

I am looking to trade death gems, I can offer an abundance of earth and water gems, as well as nature and fire gems in return. Pm me of you are interested.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Janlm, you're a few turns early. First I have to destroy R'lyeh's army and that's going to take all the death gems I have. Sorry.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

so can you trade me death gems after you have destroyed my army? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Sure!....oh wait... I forgot you were R'lyeh!

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

...if we trade death gems then I want lots of air gems... and you have to stop attacking me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

I haven't kept track of when the last turn was run, but isn't Nikolai a bit overdue with is turn?

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Janlm, your army was cut down like trees. Wanna trade death gems now?

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Server seems to be down at the moment. At least I cannot connect.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

My internet wasn't working. Now it is.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

...but I still can't connect:)
Upd: Now it works. Thanks.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Ok, my internet went down AGAIN and now it's back up.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Ano, you know you are really gay. You are attacking Jotunheim after he stopped attacking you... Now Niefelheim will have a quick death.

gayyyyy

The items I am sending niefelheim will surely be stronger than the ones you are using.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

He didn't stop attacking me and declined a peace treaty which I proposed. Moreover, he would be dead very long ago if you didn't send him artifacts an if I wasn't engaged into a 3-side war. And I don't see any reason why I should explain YOU anything.
So this discussion is over.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Ano, I know he DID stop attacking you, right after you asked him to stop in an in-game message. I know all this because I usually help him take his turn. He hasn't attacked you for quite a few turns. Then all of a sudden you send armies.

But whatever, if you want to play like that without any regard to diplomacy, fine. I can't stop you, but I'll sure as hell assist Niefelheim as long as he is alive.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

That's false. He didn't agree to make a peace treaty and later attacked my undefended province with temple with his scout.
As for diplomacy, I respect all treaties I enter.

Re: War of Dominion - Early Ages: Noobie Game (OPE
 

Alright, ano. I'm glad you respect treaties.
