Shinuyama is looking for Earth Gems. I can pay in Water, Nature, Fire or Death gems, or forged items of what I can make.

I´ll be on vacation until the 22nd. However TC is defeated already,
so please continue. I´ve given all orders for the next turns.

Cheers, Klaus

I won't have internet access from 25 to 1 so I need to know if we will have a pause or relaxed schedule for the holidays, I don't wanna miss my turns.
Also, someone else would like to extend the regular timer? We're almost reaching turn 40 on 36h, and they are starting to take some time.

Tiavals December 19th, 2012 11:12 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I changed the hosting interval to 60.

If it's too much, say so and I might lower it to 48.

As for a pause or slowing down, I'm okay with that. Any suggestions on how to do it?

Lunaje December 20th, 2012 05:01 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I've seen that other games set the hosting interval to something like 240h some days before the "pause", so if anyone can play a turn, they do it, but if someone is out, it won stale.

HeatEXTEND December 20th, 2012 07:44 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Sounds fine.

Yes, that looks like a perfect solution.

Tiavals December 20th, 2012 02:02 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
When do you want this to be implemented? 22? 23? 24th?

Tiavals December 21st, 2012 12:35 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Also, Shinuyama is having a great artifact sale. You want your very own Aegis? Send me your offer and I'll see about it!
Any and all artifacts are for sale(which I can produce as Shinuyama), provided the price is right. Earth gems are required to make purchases. Or huge amounts of astral pearls.

Tiavals December 23rd, 2012 07:26 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I'm setting the hosting interval to 240 hours, as most people are likely busy with holiday and I might not be here later to set it to delays and such, hope no one minds.

It's still on quick host, though, so you can do your turns as you like.

Tiavals December 27th, 2012 08:32 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I have normalized the hosting time to 48 hours.

HeatEXTEND December 29th, 2012 10:09 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I would like to ask for an extension upwards to jan 3rd, my birthday is
jan 2nd and this causes some RL logistic business :p.

Tiavals December 30th, 2012 09:56 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I'll try to remember it after the turn hosts. We're still waiting for mictlan.

HeatEXTEND December 30th, 2012 04:37 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Would be much appreciated.

Lunaje December 31st, 2012 10:34 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Tiavals,
Wasn't the hosting interval in 60h before the long pause?
I could really use the extra time for the turns, so I would like to know if anyone else is in the same position, since we are near turn 40 already.

Tiavals December 31st, 2012 02:52 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Ah, right you are, I'll put it to 60.

Also, delaying the game some 24 hours.

Tiavals January 3rd, 2013 10:56 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Maliken seems to be missing, according to outside info, and he staled last turn and is in danger of staling this one.

Thus I'm putting up a call for a Mictlan substitute player. I'll postpone the turn by 48h in order to see if Maliken comes back or if a sub is needed, he has time to make his turn.

Tiavals January 6th, 2013 06:33 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Since Maliken is completely missing, the player replacing him will be a permanent replacement. If we get no replacement, I will have to turn him to AI, but I'd like to avoid that since Mictlan has a strong position.

chelubey January 7th, 2013 12:56 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Mictlan is one of the strongest powers. It would be very bad for the quality of the game to see it going to AI.
I'd rather (personally) wait for some substitute player to come even if it will take long.

Tiavals January 7th, 2013 01:21 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
starcryst expressed interest in subbing, I have sent him the turn. If there's no password, he'll be taking over. If there is a password, the only option is to AI.

Lunaje January 7th, 2013 01:43 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Hope there isn't pass, AI Mictlan will turn things on the ugly side of life.

starcryst January 7th, 2013 02:44 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
No password! I should have time tonight to get my turn in.

Would help to have some history on the game. I notice that Mictlan has lost some territory recently. Am I at war with someone? Do I have NAPs with anyone?

I'll read the entire game thread later today, but a summary of the game so far would be very helpful in getting me acclimated.

Thanks!

Best not read the game thread, since there's a LOT of confusion there since we had to start the game over again due to some problems and such. It'll just make you very confused if you read it, I think. :)

I don't know much about Mictlan's history, I don't have any deals with them. Just that some people fear them greatly and are in war with them, I believe.

I've postponed by 12 hours so you can get accustomed to your nation.

If the nation did have a password, then you would still need that password to set the nation to AI. As there is no way to do that outside of the game. The "Set a nation to AI" option on the admin page of the llamaserver is more than just a little deceptive. As if you click on it, it will tell you how to set a nation AI, and tell you that it has to be done from in-game by the player. But it is in no way a "Set a nation to AI" option.

But if you set a Master Passowrd when creating the game, then that can be used in place of any player passwords that might exist. Meaning with a master password, you can never be locked out of a nation, which would be the case if a nation had an unknown password and there was no Master Password. The only solution in such a case would be to let the nation stale until it was eliminated from the game.

tl;dr - ALWAYS set a Master Password.

Thank you for the advice, weird stranger.

Lucky for me, I always use a master password(I thought it was mandatory).

Oh that's what you were talking about. It's par the course. :)

My only victory in the war so far, so I figured you were talking of my poor expensive bakemonos that are turned to pincushions by your annoying arbalests.

chelubey February 9th, 2013 07:43 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
I'm likely too late with it, but still.
Add 24 hours delay please.

Sorry, didn't see that until now.

You can't be and are not supposed to be 100% around. Its my problem I requested delay that late. (Luckily hurry almost didn't have consequences anyway).

I need a 24 hour extension for this one. Thanks.

Extended.

If possible I would love for this turn to be extended towards friday/saturday, I have some RL **** coming down -_-.

Tiavals February 19th, 2013 04:20 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Unfortunately it seems both Ulm and Mictlan staled.

I'll extend this turn till the end of the weekend so everyone will have time to do their turns for sure.

Llamaserver's oddity:
> Game: WallWorld2
> Turn number 60
> Next turn due: 06:44 GMT on Monday March 4th
> Shinuyama 2h file received
> C'tis 2h file received
> Machaka 2h file received
> Mictlan Waiting for 2h file
> R'lyeh Waiting for 2h file
> Ulm 2h file received
> Last updated at 00:19 GMT on Monday March 4th
> Current time: 05:34 GMT

I sent my turn about 4 hours ago, but llamaserver doesn't perform any processing:( There was no confirmation mail as well (mails - since I tried to post turn several times).
I hope all unprocessed queues will be processed there before taking into account actual time/deadline otherwise me and Mictlan are going to stale on this turn.

So Mictlan went suddenly AI on turn 60? I didn't notice until now.

Tiavals March 12th, 2013 04:11 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
So it would seem. Strange.

chelubey March 26th, 2013 08:11 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
What are our victory conditions? Everyone's concession?
I realized I don't know what they are, and there is nothing about it in thread's header message (neither later).

Tiavals March 26th, 2013 02:00 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Well, I'm not that picky. Until everyone feels someone is unbeatable. I guess an allied victory could work? For now it's just one to rule them all, but if everyone agrees, allied victory is accepted too.

chelubey March 27th, 2013 08:28 AM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
Ok, thanks for clarification.
Actually I didn't mean joint victories. Rather suddenly for I've realised I'm not sure what our victory conditions are, and I'be became alarmed that we could have victory condition related with % of capitals captured. It would significantly change matters.

And despite there was nothing about that in the header, I decided to check just in case.

Tiavals March 27th, 2013 04:23 PM

Re: WallWorld2 - 10/10 - Newbie-Intermediate
 
As far as I know, I didn't put the victory points in-game mechanic in use, so that'd normally mean the game goes on until a single victor is chosen among the players.
