Re: calling all players
 
are we ever going to get that last turn in?

High_Priest_Naresh October 30th, 2005 04:22 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I have sent my turn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Endoperez October 30th, 2005 04:47 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I don't know what is going on. The last turn I received from Naresh was turn 5, and I have since sent him turn 6. However, my e-mail program first complained that it couldn't deliver the e-mail to that address... I managed to send it, or at least got my e-mail program to think it was sent successfully, but it seems Naresh didn't get it. I'll attach the turn file here, the turn itself is protected by password so it shouldn't matter.

Re: calling all players

High_Priest_Naresh October 31st, 2005 04:41 AM

Re: calling all players

Folket November 1st, 2005 02:46 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Shall we try to host turn at least three times a week to get this going?

High_Priest_Naresh November 1st, 2005 03:35 PM

Re: calling all players
 
sorry peeps I have been buisy with GCSE's we may have to call it quits or find a replace ment for me...

shovah November 1st, 2005 07:58 PM

Re: calling all players
 
maybe some1 should start a new thread to get a replacement?

Endoperez November 3rd, 2005 05:30 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Sorry, I have been quite busy with school as well. I'll start the replacement thread.

High_Priest_Naresh November 5th, 2005 08:19 AM

Re: calling all players
 
I cannot playany more

Let's kill this one.

Endoperez November 6th, 2005 03:04 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I'd like to give it one more chance. If we get a replacement in the beginning of next week, and get the 3 turns/week going, will you stay in?

Endoperez November 7th, 2005 05:02 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Cainehill promised to "just jump in" as Man. Hopefully it all starts working.

Cainehill November 7th, 2005 11:27 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Next turn is up.

Edit: Or, er, no it isn't, since QH doesn't seem to be on. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Endoperez November 7th, 2005 11:56 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Nope, I should have put it after I received the next turn for Man... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif It's nice to have to do that.

Cainehill November 7th, 2005 11:48 PM

Re: calling all players
 

So, what days of the week is the game supposed to run?

Endoperez November 8th, 2005 12:30 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Monday, Wednesday, Friday. As it hasn't been on Quickhost, there is no set time yet.

CuriousCat November 8th, 2005 11:42 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Turn is up.

shovah November 11th, 2005 07:54 PM

Re: calling all players
 
any chance of getting the last turn(s) in?

Cainehill November 12th, 2005 12:18 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Well, they did say it was Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

But, since Naresh is long gone, could we get a new thread started for this game, so an active player can update the first post with news? I mean - just tried to figure out who C'Tis is, but I ain't wading through 12 pages of posts for it.

Also, if it's M/W/F seems like it should be fixed host, so we can all see when the next turn is due.

It's me.

Cainehill November 12th, 2005 01:10 AM

Re: calling all players
 

And all I wanted to see was if it was a regular player (as opposed to someone like the guy I'm filling in for). Still nicer to have a new thread, updatable in the first post to easily see major news about the game : who the players are ( just think - 12 pages now on turn 6 or 7. If someone else takes over for a nation on turn 14, they might have 24 pages to go through trying to figure out who Man was, because it isn't mentioned on the front page / post.

And then, I do think being able to tell when on Mon/Wed/Fri a turn is supposed to run would be a good thing also. Let's people know what standard they have to meet to avoid staling, and keeps other people from griping about when the turn runs. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I may be gone but I am still here to watch how the game it going so....

Re: calling all players
 
caine, just remember whos in your team ok?

Endoperez November 14th, 2005 02:04 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I realized just now that I couldn't connect to server... It should work now, but has probably been down since Saturday... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

Sorry.

Folket November 14th, 2005 03:47 PM

Here it is Tuesday, and the turn didn't run? I'm with Folket. The server ought to be set to run on the specific days that it's supposed to run on.

Although, I will admit : it's bad enough when someone gets into a normal free-for-all game and starts missing turns and drops out, but it really sucks for a team-oriented game, since it directly impacts the team mates (as opposed to the indirect impact in free for all, where the people neighboring the now-comatose nations benefit and the others don't).

Folket November 15th, 2005 02:19 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Seems like Curious cat is not playing. Let endoperez use masterpassword to let either me or himself play caelum until curious catr returns or we get a replacement.

Cainehill November 15th, 2005 03:18 PM

Re: calling all players
 

Too bad the passwords hadn't been shared for all players on the same team. Or at least, each team gives to the organizer, that way the master password doesn't need to be given out.

CuriousCat November 15th, 2005 09:24 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Sorry. RL distractions. I'm still playing but cannot connect to the server.

Endoperez November 16th, 2005 01:52 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Surprise surprise, the server was DOWN again. This time, it was the biggest storm of this autumn. No electricity... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif It should be up again, as you can decipher from this post appearing on the forum the electiricy came back. Some poor workers must have had a long night.

Even with that, if nothing else happens I'm afraid I'm going to host the game soon, this evening or tomorrow morning.

Endoperez November 16th, 2005 03:56 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Damn blackdowns! There was a few-second moment of no electricity this morning after that post, and the computers of course shut down. I restarted the server, and Dominions, but if more moments of darkness happened, or if the firewall prompts Dominions again ("Have you updated this application since the last time you used it?" and something), it mightn't work.

If the server doesn't work today, and I'm not even able to test it until I get home in maybe 6-7 hours, I can't really host. With the server down Saturday-to-Monday, and with no chance for CuriousCat to play his turn today, it would be rather heavy-handed.

Folket November 16th, 2005 06:39 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Seems like it is not working at the moment, perhaps you should handle out turn by email and we may PBEM while the server is unstable.

CuriousCat November 16th, 2005 09:58 AM

Re: calling all players
 
I'd be happy to PBEM if necessary. I just need the turn file. Endoperez should still have my email address. I tried to send him an email but it bounced.

Endoperez November 16th, 2005 12:35 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I sent the file, the server might be up, and I probably gave you wrong e-mail address. At least the storm that wrecked the electricity (trees fell on lines) wasn't my fault... I just wished for winter to finally come.


EDIT: I received PM from CuriousCat. The next turn should be up on tommorrow morning (around 06:00 GMT +2). Sorry for the delay, but at least the backline didn't move anymore.

---------------------
I did wish for winter to come sooner, and for some reason, the snow came right after the big storm... I wonder if something heard my mumblings, and for some reason, a sudden chill makes me shiver...

CuriousCat November 16th, 2005 09:45 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Ok. I managed to get into the server and played my turn, but I guess we're not quickhosting so there's still no new turn.

Endoperez November 17th, 2005 01:28 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Sorry, I hosted it and set Quickhost to the shortcut so that I can't forget it again.

CuriousCat November 18th, 2005 01:00 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Turn 11 is up.

Folket November 21st, 2005 11:55 AM

Re: calling all players
 
Time to host.

Endoperez November 21st, 2005 11:59 AM

Re: calling all players
 
THe new turn is up now. BTW, I made a new thread for the game. Small Middle-Earth Game thread has been empty for a few days now, but I'll try to keep it up-to-date... At least to add a post when new turn is up.

Ummm.... New turn isn't up when I connect to the game - still waiting on C'tis.

Endoperez November 21st, 2005 03:11 PM

Re: calling all players
 
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif It seems you're right. I must be hallucinating or something... I could have sworn C'tis was the only one with the turn in.

I e-mailed Reverend Z. Should I host it in the morning if he doesn't play his turn? Has he been active elsewhere, in other games or in the forums?

Cainehill November 21st, 2005 03:54 PM

Re: calling all players
 
I got a PM from him this morning saying he'd been away this weekend, wasn't anywhere he could check on the map from - presumably work, school or some such. Presumably he can get his turn in later today.

Endoperez November 21st, 2005 04:29 PM

Re: calling all players
 
We'll wait, then. That's what I prefer, any way.

Folket November 21st, 2005 05:30 PM

Re: calling all players
 
Let us make it a standard to post here if you can't make the turn so that everyone knows. This game is having to many hickups. We have gotten nowhere so far.
