Re: New IP
 

Is this game still active? I haven't been able to connect to the server for some time.

<edit> not that it really matters to me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: New IP
 

yeah it is =)

Re: New IP
 

The IP changed a few times though, maybe that's the problem? Latest adress is 67.42.132.69

Re: New IP
 

I seem to have missed last host =/

Re: New IP
 

I set Marignon to AI.

Re: New IP
 

Hmm, the Arcane Nexus... my first reaction was one of pure horror and despair, but on second thought most nations are dead or dying, so unlikely to use many gems. I wonder how much it will earn you. (I don't doubt it will still be a nice bonus, mind you)

I'll upload my turn in a little while, will we play the next turn in 3.08 already?

Re: New IP
 

it did increase my astral gem income with 90 or so gems, not much but still...

Re: New IP
 

Just a heads up, 30 min till host.

Re: New IP
 

do you guys want me to update to 3.08?
also, do you want just quickhost since it is just the two of you?

Re: New IP
 

Im almost done with my turn, so can we wait untill next turn with the update ?. And qh sounds fine. Thx for hosting and a good game wazoo, hope there is no hard feeling for my attack on you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Re: New IP
 

So I play the current turn in 3.06 still then? Fine with me.

Re: New IP
 

No hard feelings evilhomer.

Taking server down now to update to 3.08 Will restart the game as quickhost only.

Re: New IP
 

3.08 now
If you guys have any issues, pm me.

I will be gone with no internet access from May 17th till May 31st, so if something happens at that time I wont be able to fix it. Since it is quickhost only it will be fine if the IP changes.

I have a running backup of the last turn, so if needed we can go back 1 turn.

can't connect

Re: New IP
 

Blegh. I managed to accidentally submit my turn halfway through http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Way to go Genius! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif


Well, at least this way playing a turn doesn't take too much time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

P.S.(Did I overuse the smiley's here?)

Re: New IP
 

If you want to back to the previous turn that would be fine with me.

Re: New IP
 

is that a yes on the rollback a turn?

Re: New IP
 

sure go back to previous turn. The game seems to be down just so you know.

Re: New IP
 

71.33.42.68
and I rolled back a turn by earasing both your orders.

Re: New IP
 

Ouch, I'm sorry I took so long to answer. I left right after posting, and came back just now. I didn't even think about the possibility of a rollback, but just felt like cursing a bit http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Thanks for being nice to a poor thoughtless innocent guy like me. :puppyeyes:

Re: New IP
 

This is turning into a war of SCs http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif

Re: New IP
 

Unfortunately, you got the biggest one... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Re: New IP
 

Cannot connect, server down ?

Re: New IP
 

It's a sign of the gods. They want you to stop wishing for Seraphs. Honestly. That's the only way we'll be able to start playing again. In fact, they want you to allow your current Seraphs to return to heaven.

I swear to god I didn't make any of this up to enhance my chance of winning this game in any way.

Re: New IP
 

guess I have to start wishing for ice devils/arch devils and heliphagius instead http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Re: New IP
 

Re: New IP
 

I just wish you didn't have life for a life, pretty awsome spell against strong scs like seraphs (you had one at less than 10 hp at one time).

Re: New IP
 

Yeah, shame you away in time. (and without afflictions even)

Re: New IP
 

I suppose you still can't connect either? I'll PM Wazooking.

Re: New IP
 

its possible that he is away for a few weeks

Re: New IP
 

Right! I forgot he mentioned that. Till the end of the month apparently.

Re: New IP
 

hey guys, sorry about the delay, just got back.
168.103.107.192

It looks like neither of you have submitted this turn. Sound right?

PM or write in here if you have any trouble, I will be around.

Re: New IP
 

Thanks wazoo, my turn is up!

Re: New IP
 

Game seems down.

Re: New IP
 

How about getting one of those DynDNS accounts? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: New IP
 

Does dom3 work with DNS names instead of ip?

Re: New IP
 

of course it does

Re: New IP
 

Pffft... I had forgotten how many badasses you had running around. It hurts. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Re: New IP
 

I'm only summoning 2 seraphs per turn, no biggie.

Re: New IP
 

Oh, btw, now might be a good time to ask:

I'm convinced you've won this game (have been forquite a while, actually), so if you're loosing intrest/lack time/prefer to concentrate on other games/have trouble picking back up after the long break/... I'd be more than happy to concede. If you prefer to find out what fiendish tricks I have in store to delay the inevitable we can play on a bit.

Re: New IP
 

Hard choice really. I do belive the game will hard or impossible to turn for you. My awsome gem income with all the badasses as you describe them will continue to inflict pain for sure (water queens, air queens more seraphs etc). Also I have rather large armies finishing jomon/arco and are heading your way.

As to continuing - I do find the game fun, simply to play around with ideas and end game spells (im lvl 9 in all schools). On the same time, school, other games etc eats at my time as well so I would be fine with just ending it here. What is your preference ?.

Tricks up your sleeve? let me guess, AC ?

Re: New IP
 

Oh, I didn't mean anything specific when I said that, just that I could do my best to hurt you.

Having said that, AC obviously is a nice spell. In fact, I was on my way to cast it when Burden of Time killed the only mage I had with a ring of wizardry (which I need to cast it with my warlocks), and by the time I had dispelled it (using up all my astral (and many non-astral) gems in the proces, so I had to wait a bit to forge a new ring), you had put the nexus up. At this point it won't save me anymore, as you'll just dispel it - with my bloodhunters being capital only - and the fact that I have to keep a decent number of them with my armies since it's the only thing I have that can kill your seraphs (and they obviously need a nice supply of slaves too) - my blood income just isn't big enough. In short: I'm dead.

As for my preference, I'm a bit in the same situation as you, it is indeed fun to try to find ways to hurt/delay/annoy you, and it certainly taught me to appreciate the power of blood magic. (first time in either SP or MP I use it extensively, and never came up against it before), but on the other hand I could start up a new game and discover a new race and new oponents, instead of fighting a lost war. All in all I have maybe a very slight preference for calling it a day, but if you prefer to keep going a few turns, I'll be happy to be a thorny punching bag for you. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif

Re: New IP
 

Alright, lets end it here then. It was a fun game, and thanks wazo for hosting it for us all.

Re: New IP
 

In that case, gogo to the hall of fame thread.

Thanks for the hosting Wazoo, and Bob, if you're still following this: damn good war that was against you too. You made me sweat. (and to make an Abysian sweat you need to turn the heat up really high.)

Re: New IP
 

Thanks, high praise indeed.

This game had alot of good players in it. I very much enjoyed playing MA Ermor and being at war from turn 10 till my end.

Conqratulations Evilhomer and thanks to Wazoo for being a very, very considerate host. I like hosts who make sure all the players get there turns in.

Re: New IP
 

Lucky me that i didn't throw in the towel when everyone thought abysia had the game http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif. At that point I actually belived I was winning to be honest (having many clams, lvl 9 in most magics, great gem income etc).Anyway great fighting amhazair, im going to keep my eyes on you in games ahead - especially when you border me with dangerous blesses you make me nervous http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif. And thanks again to the host, you made sure we got to see this one out till the end.

Re: New IP
 

Well, as I said at that time: I've never actually believed I really had a shot at winning this game, and while I was stronger than I thought I was (it's all in the blood baby, all in the blood http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif) it wasn't quite strong enough. Well played Homer.


And stop being so strong so fast in game(s) where I border you with dangerous blesses... I'm supposed to be confident enough to rush you before you get your magic going instead of agreeing to long term NAP's. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: New IP
 

Ah, we were pretty equal at the time, you were just afraid of my pretender showing up as a seraph or something http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.
