well congrats and condolences on fifth.

I would rather just got PBEM - this is how team Noobheim is setup, and I'd like to continue that. Lack of passwords makes it easier to look at each others turns.

Also, SS - you should have Sauromatia as well, as I know I sent it to you, along with the other two.

I would very much prefer PBEM, with turn deadline reminders.

The mod that is attached to the first message references a tga image that does not seem to be included. It might not cause a problem but Im not sure.

Very well, PBEM only it shall be. With turn deadline reminders. If you want to pw protect any pretenders that is fine, if not that is fine also. Doesn't matter much with PBEM.

Gandalf, nah that missing .tga is just the graphic image that shows up next to mod name in the game preferences section. I didn't include it in the archive to simplify things (same reason I didn't put in the other 2 variants), but it makes absolutely no difference and doesn't affect game play in any way. I've enabled and played with the mod no problems. But I think I'll go ahead and include it, for those people who want the extra aesthethic touch. Thanks for reminding me.

I've got 10 pretenders so far:

Arco
Helheim
Kailasa
Lanka
Mictlan
Neifelheim
T'ien Chi'
Tir na nog
Ulm
Vanheim

5 more to go.

And we send them directly to Sev via his e-mail, on the old forum site which is working again.

Well, ghoul31 *did* check in, so I feel a bit of a tool to punt him, but he's not here so he's not here. So: I active illuminated one as his alternate. Zapang! It is done.

Illuminated One: you can have Caelum or Hinnom, your choice. I think pyg21 would slightly-prefer Hinnom, although he has some practice with Caelum. Post your desired pretender design for your desired nation on the team forum.

I'll keep people uptodate here in the main thread so that they know I'm not dead - although I'm pretty busy this week :(

In a last-ditch attempt to give my team a better chance by appealing to The People instead of leaving it up to admin fiat: Would anyone make a fuss about the swap or really feel cheated by not having a chance to take Van as a swap nation if my team was allowed to swap out Van for Abysia? Thanks.

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Send ye Pretenders to Me!
 

I don't have any objections, though I have no real say in the matter, as the Mysterios advisor, if Micah wants to suggest a nation swap for his team. As advisor, if he feels his team is untenable as is, then by all means, make it more tenable. It is perhaps getting a bit late for this, but the game has been delayed for quite a while anyhow.

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Send ye Pretenders to Me!
 

Ghoul31 is involved in two games, and is getting his turns in regularly.

Also, Sept, I pmed you that I know that the sauromatia pretender has been sent to you 2x.
