Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Can I get a 3 hour extension?

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Sure; hosting has been delayed until 22:40 GMT.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

The Tuatha have joined those nations opposing the tyranny of T'ien Ch'i. The Celestial Empire has become too powerful and is a threat to all. Tir na n'Og calls on all nations to stop this bureaucracy run rampant.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

While it is too late for us, the forest lords rejoice at the news TNN has struck blows against the might of TC! The dryads have begun chaining themselves to tree trunks and practicing anti-logging chants in readiness for the final blow. :)

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

...and its all over for Pangaea...

GG all, hats off to Radioheart - well done mate.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

The peaceful and earnest population of the T'ien Ch'i terrorized by Sidhe Lord paratroopers. Tir na n'Og leadership called to task for a war of preemption that discounts civilian casualties in favor of dramatic shock and awe tactics. The Celestial Court in uproar.

Good game Wokeye. The Celestial Court has dedicated several hundeed acres of forestland as an imperial war memorial in honor of lives lost on both sides of the T'ien Ch'i - Pangaea conflict. Dispossessed Dryads offered enrollement in the Academy of The Way. Pangaea shall live on amidst the Celestial Empire.

The Celestial Court

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Be Well, Wokeye.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Yes Sir, It was a good day to die...

The Blue Sky overlooking the Brilliant Green of the forest.

The Blood soaking into the ground will bring new life to the Woodlands.

Another war ended....Another war waiting to begin.

You Sir..and your Army, have seen the Valkyries waiting to guide you to Valhalla this day.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Thanks for playing, Wokeye! The Tuatha will attempt to avenge Pangaea.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Humbly request a twelve hour extension.

Hosting time in the early AM EST, a busy night tonight and another mountain of a turn to play.

While on the subject, is there anyone else in favor of an increase in hosting interval?

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Hi, Radioheart. Hosting has been delayed 12 hours, until 22:30 GMT Tuesday.

If there is overwhelming support I will change the hosting interval but it seems a bit early to do so...

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I support longer turns. This game just became much more eventful for me.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I need to request an extra couple of days after the hosting coming up Tuesday - I will be out of town and not have access to the game until late Sunday evening. That means the turn could conceivably host on Thursday/Friday after this Tuesday (I will play the new turn before I leave). and then again the next monday for example, giving me until monday.

If this is unacceptably long I will see what I can do about finding a sub, but I would prefer not to, since things just got a bit more interesting for Marverni.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I can use a break....for the weekend

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I'm up for longer turns too. End of winter holiday tomorow for me.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

st.patrik, no problem on delaying the game while you are away.

It looks like there's some support for changing the hosting interval. How do the rest of you, who haven't yet commented, feel about it? Also, what about changing to 60 hours instead of 72? My main concern with 72 is that some players can start to lose interest with too long a hosting time.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I agree with not increasing the time too much. After all, the name of the game is Momentum!

edit - thanks Valerius - much appreciated!

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I agree with St. P.; if we need to increase the interval, lets do it to the minimum degree possible. Thanks

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I agree

60 Quickhost is good for me...:D

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

It looks like 60 hours is a fair compromise. After the next couple of turns (which will have delayed hosting) I'll make the change.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

A couple of things:

First, hosting has been postponed until 23:50 GMT Friday. The hosting after that will be set to 23:50 GMT Monday.

Second, it looks like Mictlan staled last turn and Unoptimized doesn't seem to have been on the boards for a few weeks. I will message/e-mail him to see if he's still playing. If not, then we'll need to find a sub or set him AI.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

As planned, hosting has been delayed until 23:50 GMT Monday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Hm. Having examined the state of affairs, I must ask; who in this war has been spending HUGE numbers of earth gems in blighting me? Having examined Tien Chi's unit roster, I find it unlikely that it is they who have turnd my provinces into a wasteland.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

The T'ien Ch'i don't like how you've implied it may have somehow been an inefficient use of gems. Therefore I suggest you suspect the Tir na n'Og, only they could be so reckless. Mmhm.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Ha! Nice try TC. :) Blight is what, earth/death? Tir doesn't exactly have an abundance of such mages.

Also, some things came up and I'll need a little more time for this turn. I'm delaying hosting by 8 hours.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Maybe TC has some onyx amazons? They have earth and death. Have you seen any nightmares in his armies, that could be the clue?

The only one with earth and death here is Vanheim, but I sincerely doubt it was him.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Mictlan and the enemies of The Celestial Court have often seen their nightmares in The Ever Victorious Army. Only not the pedestrian nightmares of Mictlan crossbreeding. No, this is the nightmare, the creeping dread, of a false god whose candles of violent and cruel worship are guttering. And surely will be snuffed out by the righteous light of The Swift Hand Qing Li.

Such terror, it must only be scarcely repressed by the enemies of The Celestial Court. We suspect they do see nightmares and agree; This should be considered an important clue.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

The Van thank you for this observation. Our practice is to declare our intentions so that all might know, and we have no quarrel with Mictlan.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

As previously discussed, hosting has been changed to 60 hours. This has postponed the hosting time for the current turn by 12 hours, to 19:35 GMT Thursday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Add 6 hours to deadline please Valerius?

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

No problem; new hosting time is 15:10 GMT Friday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Can I have a 12 hour extension, please?

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Sure; hosting has been postponed until 2:15 GMT Thursday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I just realized Radioheart (T'ien Ch'i) staled last turn. With only a half hour before hosting his turn is not in yet. I'm going to delay hosting some more.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Hey guys! Sorry, but I'm gonna be out till late sunday. If the game could be delayed till then, I would appreciate it :).

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

No problem. I've delayed hosting by 36 hours. New hosting time is 8:15 GMT Monday. I'll keep an eye on everyone's turns and if that's not enough time I'll extend it.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

We still have a couple of turns missing so I'm adding 12 hours to hosting.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I need some more time for this turn so I'm delaying hosting by 6 hours. New hosting time is 9:40 GMT Thursday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I know there's been a lot of delays recently, but I am going to be real busy for the next few days. Could we have the game extended for 48 hours?

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Ok; the next turn was due Saturday. Hosting has been delayed 48 hours. New hosting time is 21:45 GMT Monday.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

TC has staled the past couple of turns and I saw another post indicating Radioheart had also stopped playing in another game. Hopefully he will return but given TCs important role in the game I think we need to find a sub. I'll postpone the game as needed to see if we can find a sub.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I'm delaying hosting by 24 hours to see if we can find a sub for TC.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Good news, it looks like Radioheart is still in the game as TC! And making quite a statement throwing up two globals this turn.

Radioheart, sorry if I jumped the gun looking for a sub...

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I think he's trying to get triple-teamed again. He lacks attention.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

This is funny. :D

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

I need more time again. Can I have a 24h extension?

And also can we reconsider moving to 72h turns? I find myself not having enough time for turns.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Thanks for reminding me; now that we are on turn 60 hosting is scheduled to go to 72 hours.

I'll make this change and also delay hosting for the current turn by 24 hours.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Howdy all....

I am about to be absorbed by Vanheim and Sauro.

I usually don't go AI but in this case after I make my next turn I will be setting Fomoria to AI.

I have talked to my two antagonists and rather than just click my turns away (I have no army, money, gems) I could at least let the AI fight a little.

Thank all of you for the game and I learned a LOT from watching these two and the rest of you.

I will be seeing you all in the next one!!!!!!!:up::D

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

GB,

You played a good game under challenging circumstances, and I look forward to playing with you again sometime. Be well.

Re: Momentum - EA game - Started
 

Thanks for playing GrudgeBringer!
