Hey llama - which version of the map did you use?

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

well, he used the same one i used..

http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...?Number=573514

This is the link to the map I have (which works for me)

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I wasn't sure what you meant, because there was only one version in the link you used. I found a file called Alexander_libraries.map in my maps folder, but I didn't use it, I just used Alexander.map.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Thanks llama.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Paging Ctis and Atlantis
Could you get your turns in? We have two cases of withdrawal.....

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Hey StrictlyRockers, I got something for you. Its a can, a can of whoop ***... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

WOW, I don't think I can keep up with time game! It's just going too fast for me, I'ma have to get a sub,
50 hours a turn just isn't enough,

We just started 5 days ago!!!!

Here I sit broken hearted, tried to play but they haven't started... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Ah the washroom stall wisdom, surely it shall be seen as the Shakespeare of our time.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Okay Arco has staled 3 three times in a row now without saying a word regarding the reason for that here in the game thread. Therefore I suggest, no I demand, we put Arco AI immediately so we don't have to wait for him every turn pointlessly.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

i second the motion especially if he has stalled.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I agree as well.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Thanks guys. The policy is stale after 2. I just didn't notice.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Huh. I can't do it. Seems like llama has to. I'
ve sent word. In the meantime, if anyone wants to sub in as ARCO, please let me know.


Arco is now ai

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Hiccup, guys how about a marathon sunday? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I don't think Ill be around enough on sunday for marathon but if I am. . . http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Sunday marathon sounds great. But with 15 players I wonder how if its gonna work...

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I can certainly squeeze some extra turns in on sunday. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I'm available from 1800 pst (6pm) til about midnight. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I don't think I will be available for a marathon sunday, and I am 100% sure that I won't be available during that time slot.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Ok Worth a try.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Eh, I might be able to. On another note I'm going to need a sub for a short while in a few days as I'll be out of town visiting family. How would I go about setting that up (I'm new here).

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Just make a new topic in multiplayer section asking for a sub. Add in the details you like and that's about it.

EDIT: After you have a sub the email address to which turns are being sent must be changed but I believe game admin can do that.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I am going to ask JimMorrison if he wants to take over my position, if no one has objection.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Chris, I might object to you ducking out actually. I mean, how can I give you a good revenge kicking for your early attack on me if you're not around to receive it! :-)

ps. I'm fine with JimM stepping in :-)

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Well it appears I'm going to have to bow out as no one is willing to fill in for me during the week I'll be away. I'll hold off until Wednesday but unless stated otherwise I will be forced to go AI then.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I do have an objection to the game being delayed with no notice given. What's up?

This is the kind of thing that happens when it takes so long for a game to set up and get started. Already on turn 8 we have three drop outs!? WTF? LAME.

Maybe I'll go back to playing single player. At least the AI won't quit on me in the middle of a game... How is anyone expected to maintain interest in something like this??

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Hey Strict,

I don't mind if you're hard on me, but real life intrudes on other people. The more people that are in the game, the harder it is for everyone to get every turn in all the time.

Which is why I say delays upon request. Its one day Strict.

Best

Chris

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I think this is more of an exception to the norm, although who's supposed to set the admin to ai after he's staled twice? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Or for that matter who will be the new game admin?

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

All I'm asking for is some explanation. I still have no clue what is going on or why the game is delayed. Is Chris bowing out as Hinnom? Is that why? Are we delaying because FakeyMcFake can't find a sub? Are we waiting for Arco to come back from his walkabout?

Those of us who are chronically clue impaired need to be told what is happening...preferably in advance of it happening, not afterward.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

BTW, to turn someone AI, change the email address of the player to the host's, or whatever, request a turn resend, log on as that player, go to options (in the game), "set ai," "yes," and "end turn." Then send the .2h file back to turns[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net

Anyway, as long as a temporary sub is being sought, I personally don't mind delaying a couple of days. I am a little confused as to who is still here, who has dropped out, who is AI, who is this and that . . . http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

(Edited by llama to mung the e-mail address)

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

The delay has nothing to do with me, I won't be out of town until later in the week. Hopefully a sub can be found before then but if I can't I'll just set myself to AI before I go.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Still no clarification for me. So, why are we stalled?

-Mr. Clue Impaired

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Hey guys, lets go, okay... Less quiting, more fighting...

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Or if you quit then find a substitute cause I hate doing diplomacy with AI (and of course its much more fun to declare a war to a real player http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif).

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

We were staled because I worked 22 hours then 36 hours.
And I have a substitute for my position -- but I don't have his email address to set him up.

Im sorry about this, this was my favorite game. And it is spoiled by real life.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

It happens. I hate it when real life interferes with my gaming!

I had to drop out of all my games once about a year ago. I hated doing it. I hated doing it when I was involved in fun, hot wars with awesome players.

It's why I waited over a year before signing up for any more games. I waited until I knew I was set up so that that could not happen again. More than anything else, I hated inconveniencing my fellow players, and I didn't want that to happen again.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Hey, StrictlyRockers, take it easy man. Real life takes precidence over games every time. When I have to move I will be out of the loop for a short time. Although I will give notice ect... So don't worry, be happy... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Well its nasty of course when real life comes in the way of dominions but I think its good that we let real life to come on the way of games instead of letting games come in the way of real life.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Well, Psycho will kindly be stepping in for me for the next week or so. So I'll bid you fine people adieu for now and turn over the show to Psycho.

Edit: It appears that Psycho's brother is currently playing this game and so he will be unable to take part due to the copy protection built into the game. So I'll be going AI by Friday unless I'm able to find a sub.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

wow lots of subbing but I am still here. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif As long as there are other players lets keep going then beat up on any AI then each other. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I am going to be out of town for about 24 hours this weekend (JUST enough to get a stale). I hope you don't mind giving me a 36 hour extension. I will, of course, return and send my turn ASAP when I am back.

If that's not okay, I'll take the stale. Thanks :_)

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

What are the chances that barbarians will pillage a province in the same turn when a vampire lord reveales himself and when I move a large army on that same province with luck 3?

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

due to personal problems can we got to 48 hour? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I believe the game is now 48 hours, delayed until monday.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Once again waiting on Bwaha to finish his turn.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

This is insane, It's turn 16, and I've been attacked 3 times by barberians, once by vampires and then villans, WITH LUCK 3!?!?!? WTF?

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Well you might want to reconsider posting that information.
It tells people you've taken sloth scales or have unrest
(iirc those are the two things that unlock the barbarian events).

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

Everybody can guess what scales others took from the graphs anyway, It don't hurt me, and I doubt I'll be attacked just yet.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signups!
 

I know of no way to guess Production/Sloth.
