Keep the thread more active so I can at least pay attention vicariously!

Good luck Dr. P!

Been very fun, and so far I'm a big fan of the epic heroes. With everything else going on in life I just had to get out of my multiplayer games, 4 was too many.

Bets on a winner at this stage?

What's up with the server? The deadline has been creeping up by ten minutes every
ten minutes. Are we trying to give someone a chance to fix his turn, or is the
server crashing on host and retrying?

Re:LA Atlantis looking for perm sub
 

Server was acting up. I finally turned quick host back on just to force host. Force host is off again, and i reset time so it will host at a civilized time for me.

As far as updates:

Man is hanging on by a thread
Machaka is looking grim but determined
Pythium and Agartha scare me.
Mictlan is at war with rlyeh
Arcos, atlantis are cooling their heels.
Shinuyama is underpowered and weak, so most have left us alone, for which we are grateful.

Re:LA Atlantis looking for perm sub
 

Server was acting up deliberately. The mail server (a different machine entirely, and not mine) was being funny last night, and the llamaserver mostly couldn't reach it. To stop people staling unfairly it postpones hosting on each failure. Er, so if the mail server is down for an hour I think the server postpones hosting by a total of 2 hours, to allow an extra hour at the end for any messages that might have been unable to reach the mail server to arrive.

I believe the server will have put an automated message on the front page to this effect, but being as it always seems to happen when I'm in bed I've never actually seen it.

Re:LA Atlantis looking for perm sub
 

It is a couple hours until host, and only 2 people have their turns in. I had to submit mine twice earlier, so there may have been a few issues.

I am going to push back host an hour and keep an eye on it. Get your turns in!

So anything exciting been happening? Board's pretty quiet.

Re:LA Atlantis looking for perm sub
 

*sigh* For some reason I am kinda bored with this game. It was supposed
to let me get accustomed to Dominions III. That it did, but now I realize
how many things I did wrong, and it's kind of a drag. I am still learning
from it (thanks Xietor) but I always take my turns in the last second, and
am less careful with the lives of my men than I usually am. And there is
no roleplaying to do so, yeah, I'm quiet :-)

The pacifistic Agarthans, having no real strategic talent, and thus having NAPPed themselves into a corner are currently sitting around twiddling their thumbs, waiting for some foolish nation to declare war on them, and thus explode the entire world into war once more =)

Re:LA Atlantis looking for perm sub
 

Sua Sponte I have delayed hosting by 1 hour due to almost half the players not yet doing their turns.

Since we are getting few stales, i am assuming people are deliberately waiting until the last minute to do their turns. This laziness baffles me since force host is not on.
