Abysia has staled 3 times out of the last 4 turns. If the llamaserver's drive space issue hadn't set the hosting times back, he would have staled once again by now. 4 stales our of 5 is horrendous. If this was a game I was hosting, he would automatically be set to AI.

GrudgeBringer March 18th, 2009 06:08 AM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I agree, lets get someone to set him AI and lets get rolling...

I have a war to lose!!!:p

Guys,it's Abysia here.
Sorry for the long stale,for most of the last 4-5 days I had a bad sickness(don't know how it's called in english)so i was forced to stay in bed most of the time.Now I should be able to resume playing.I've looked at my nation's situation and it doesn't look so bad;if you don't mind,I'd like to continue:)

I don't mind, hope you are feeling better!

Speaking of which you Cheaters!!!

I saw that 6 of you cheated this turn (I tried my best but couldn't figure out how to get a free cheat done in time).

GrudgeBringer March 18th, 2009 08:04 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
Seriously, How long will the game say people are cheating and what criteria is it that the game is erroneously picking up on it?

If I were to guess, it would be people who sent in patched game files before the server had patched...or vice versa. Likely this will have been the only turn you will see it.

Edit - upon further review it seems to be an issue with 3.23 that happens with forging that is fixed in the now released 3.23b patch

GrudgeBringer March 19th, 2009 12:45 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
So go ahead and D/L the 3.23b patch now?

I will be gone from March27th through the 30th and am hopeful that everyone would be ok with a pause over that time.

My position is odd enough that I'd not like to hand it off to a sub, though I will try to find one if the pause is rejected.

GrudgeBringer March 24th, 2009 02:22 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
A Pause is OK with me, lets try and get a turn in on the 26th and then postpone until he gets back.

licker March 25th, 2009 11:34 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
There's a storm moving in on the 26th so we may leave that evening after work, meaning I won't be able to get in a turn if there is one available to play then.

Sorry for the potential extra delay, but well, not much I can do about it :p

GrudgeBringer March 26th, 2009 08:17 PM

So much for the delay :p

Ahh well, not like it cost me anything other than recruiting and some forging.

I can't get another turn in until tomorrow, but I don't think thats a problem anyway.

grr...

well this stale is going to force me to take some drastic actions.

you have been warned!

GrudgeBringer April 1st, 2009 02:36 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I would like to ask for a delay this weekend Friday 4/3 thru Sunday 4/5. If we could get a turn in Thursday evening or EARLY Friday I will complete it and we would only have to postpone 1 day.

I see Licker asked last week and didn't get a delay, but we are getting to the point in the game that every turn is important.

I would appreciate a response to my request...

Thanks:up:

Sure, some turns are much bigger deals then others, but I just can't wrap my head around idea that there are unimportant turns.

I think K is the admin of this game unless there has been a substitution I'm unaware about.

Edit, it's Torin as indicated below

GrudgeBringer April 1st, 2009 06:39 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I thought K got knocked out and Torin took it over (there was a post about it). I PM'd Torin so hopefully he will get back to me.

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I have got an extension from the other 3 games I am in...

However, this game is the most advanced and its at a time that a lot of things are happening.

I have sent a PM to Torin and posted twice on here.

I need an extension starting Tomorrow Morning Friday 4/3 and lasting until Sunday evening 4/5.

Could I please have some kind of verifacation that the admin has at keast looked at his PM's or this forum.

Thanks..GrudgeBringer Arco

Arco cancels the Nap with Mictlan on turn 40.

In appliance with our terms Turn 41 counts as turn 1.

Hostilities (if any) may commence on turn 44.

BigandScary April 7th, 2009 01:32 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
So, anybody want to come to the aid of Mictlan, the peaceful victim of the Arco war machine? I call on the nations of the world to come to the aid of a quiet and decent people. Kill the Arco warmomgers.

Can we get an extension on the next turn? I will be submitting this one soon, but could I will be gone until Monday, so I would like to request a delay of turn 42 completion to next Tuesday.

It would be nice if we did, even if I'm in the process of eating his easter brunch :)

Also...

Tir is interested in some dealings with any blood nation with blood slaves to spare, we can do alot of things to you... err for you in exchange :)

BigandScary April 13th, 2009 09:50 AM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
well, I guess that didn't work. also, if Tir wanted blood slaves he shouldn't have invaded a blood nation.

licker April 13th, 2009 11:49 AM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
Now are you saying that you don't have any blood slaves? Or that you don't want to trade some to me ;)

I should have invaded Arco, but that would have been suicide on my part, and he doesn't have any blood slaves either.

Anyway, my Shides are quite charming. :)

You should PM torin as well since asking for delays in the game thread with this game has been a bit touch and go.

Yep, we are endless, potentially ;)

Though I was a bit miffed at the spell choices made by my idiot mages, but hey, that's why we don't pay them more upkeep.

Anything other than the useless banish they kept on trying.

Though I think I was screwed anyway, not enough artillery in that fight.

Fortunately I can run away and hide for a while now :)

AreaOfEffect April 15th, 2009 04:05 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I'd like to request that Abysia be set to AI if they stale again, which they are likely to do in about an hour. They have staled 6 times this game and 2 of those were the most recent turns. I've got them in a rather tight position and I expect that the player doesn't want play out their demise.

If set to AI Abysia would at least put up some sort of fight rather then being a lamb at the slaughter house. It would also help move these turns along a little faster.

GrudgeBringer April 15th, 2009 09:43 PM

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I agree....

If someone wants out and they are conored I would rather see the AI at least tie someone uo a few turns than give themm free reign.:up:

I hate to say it like this, but this game needs to move to a 72h schedule or I will have to withdraw from it.

Can I get an amen?

I vote we hold out until turn 50 (4 more turns) but if it's necessary for you to get this extra time right away then we may as well do it now since having a good sized nation drop out would suck.

Re: EA DarkHeavens (Game on!)
 
I would rather move to a 72 hour also...I am Traveling almost every weekend playing Rugby now that the weather has turned.

I could live with waiting till turn 50 but I also don't want to see a fairly big Nation go AI.

Sooooooooooo, I say AMEN:D

Well considering I just staled due to my own time pressure I'd rather do it now, things are only getting more busy for me as all the kids spring sports have started up and I've been enlisted to help coach.

Indeed I'm bailing on one other game already (though it's far less advanced or interesting than this one) because I can put in turns, but I can't put in good turns, so I'd rather just hand it off to someone else.

I recommend sending a PM to torin asking for the new hosting schedule...I'm not sure how often he checks the game thread.
