Re: Wow
 

Give it a rest already Atlantis; I wrote out exactly what happened here in the game thread. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Wow
 

well, i place second on a the hothead list. hey did you ever hear of province defence? it stops single guys from taking over your lands. its a neat trick, you should try it sometime. hopefully not in this game. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Wow
 

Ye Olde Shoppe Of All Things Delectable And Arcane is now opening, in a Glory of the Gods map near you!

We are offering**, for those of you unable to forge such wonders on your own (you poor uncivilized beggars, we take pity on you!), a great many treasures, including, but not strictly limited to:

Frost Brand (5W)
Fire Brand (5E/5F)
Dwarven Hammer (*See Below)
Sceptre of Authority (5F)
Black Bow of Botulf (Inquire Within)
Lead Shield (10E)
Charcoal Shield (*See Below)
Black Steel Helmet (5E)
Dragon Helm (5F)
Black Steel Full Plate (10E)
Elemental Armor (10E 5F)
Boots of the Behemoth (*See Below)
Earth Boots (*See Below)
Burning Pearl (5F)
Bracers of Protection (5E)
Girdle of Might (5E)
Ring of Fire (5F)
Ring of Frost (5W)

*Not all items will be available to all nations. Furthermore, while most items are available for base forging price to all who might need them, certain special items may require special terms - kneepads sold separately. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

**Initial orders are somewhat limited due to availability of forgers. Also, initial demand may be high, so orders will be filled in the order that they are received***. Until the supply and demand paradigm works itself out, please drop a mail to this address with the contents of your order. Orders will be filled fastest if gems are sent promptly.

***Tips/bribes will be accepted to bump one's order ahead of other basic orders. A wise negotiator may pay for results, but will get what they want, when they want it.

Re: Wow
 

wow what a great post. since i don't have any fire gems yet. i would love to have about five rings of fire. this would enable me to put the hot heads out... abysia's prenteder is a scorpian king with a charcoal sheild and a fire brand http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif, and while i could shock him to death it would not be fun. back to the subject at hand. i've air gems, how many for each ring? Lord Lucky

Re: Wow
 

Is there anyone out who would trade earth gems for nature, and or fire gems

Re: Wow
 

Currently, Ye Olde Shoppe has a limited ability to perform trades for non-required gems. As of right now, that only leaves the possibility of substituting for E gems, which we have an adequate supply of. Unfortunately, we don't have much actual use for A as of this time, so you may need to look towards trading with others first, to get the needed materials.

Re: Wow
 

I will trade fire gems on an equal gold basis hunt. Currently, I am still burning them for gold, so thats the best offer I can make.
Inquire within..

Re: Wow
 

thanks but i need earth gems and i can offer some nature and earth gems

Re: Wow
 

i hear the music, its almost here. ah, a fine silver eagle flys into the halls of abysia. "this is your last chance to pay tribute. or prepare to be silenced". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gifLL

Re: Wow
 

the thing is Bwaha is that i know I have lost and that even if i gave tribute it would only delay the inevitable so I unless something big happens I am right now aiming for a glorious defeat.

Re: Wow
 

really, things don't look too bad, i'm glad that you are willing to fight. i would say good luck, but that would be bad for me. all the clamor for tribute is jus a bit of color. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif LL

Re: Wow
 

well if you call peace then i will stop fighting and move my armies as well ( if you needed fire gems you could have just asked for a trade)

Re: Wow
 

On other matters:

I am in Chicago from Friday till Sunday.

I am not expecting to delay the game. My positions in all games will be capably handled by Mark Montero.

I am going to down the servers Thursday night at midnight, to give them a fresh reboot, and to install some remote management software.

That way if something happens while I'm away, there will be at least the possibility of resolving the problem remotely.

Best to all


Chris

www.ubuntu.com is a good one http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Wow
 

Is Pan still playing at the moment? While I have no problem with someone taking time to play their turns if he is staling then we should switch him to AI.

Re: Wow
 

I'm pretty sure he staled the last 2

Re: Wow
 

Pan staled 20. He has not submitted a turn for 21.
I will not AI unless he stales 2; even so I will send him a message here inquiring.

For the rest: if you intend to abandon a position do please notify.

Re: Wow
 

Pan's been under attack by several nations. Hopefully this isn't just a case of sour grapes...

Re: Wow
 

well i've seen him online in the forum. sent him a two hour warning. no response, maybe we should recuit a sub. Bwaha http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Wow
 

having been in negotations with him fairly constantly, im fairly sure he quit, which definitely throws off the otherwise great game I was having =/ im tryin to talk him into comin back, PM sent...no response yet.

Re: Wow
 

i ask in future games, if you're going to quit say so. it gives all of us a better game if we know what the status of your country is. if i quit i will state so. please extend the same politeness and consideration to others. this is about having fun. we are waiting for the turn to move on. if you aren't going to do your turn please notify the webmaster or whatever. if you don't the turns go so slowly it isn't fun. so in closing if you want to quit do so with as much warning as possible. its only polite. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Bwaha

Re: Wow
 

Sigh. I agree I was having a blast. Ok. I will place the game on hold for 24 hours, to see if we can recruit a substitute.

Re: Wow
 

would anyone object to "tyrant" to sub? Bwaha
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Wow
 

Honestly, it seems to me it would be hard to find someone willing to sub, given his current position.

Re: Wow
 

Perhaps. Until Pangaea made an enemy of every single one of his neighbors he was doing quite well.

Re: Wow
 

I don't mind tyrant subbing, if you think he will. I have searched for a replacement without any luck. I promised a 24 hour delay.

I am going to set the game to host at 11pm EST. If he indicates he will host by 10pm, I will give him a couple of extra hours to familiarize and send in a turn.

Otherwise, I'm going to set it to AI.

In the future; As I got no real takers on subbing, I am going to set all to AI without searching for subs.

Best

Chris

Servers are back up
 

Servers are back up. Power was down.

Tyrant has agreed to take on Pangaiea. As this was arranged by request of Bwaha, I did not actually think to ask if he wanted Atlantis.

Due to Tyrant taking the position, hosting will be delayed 24 hours.

Re: Servers are back up
 

Turn up. Die Jotunlantermoria!

Re: Servers are back up
 

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Happy days, pan just ran. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif Bwaha

Re: Servers are back up
 

Err, why would Tyrant want Atlantis? I'm playing them.

Re: Servers are back up
 

Sorry John:
I got my boards crossed. Atlantis in a different game had asked me to find a sub. I didn't think to ask Tyrant. And posted to the wrong board.

Apologies.

New Status Screens
 

Due to some really great workby ich, two new status screens are available:

http://dom3.matryx.org.uk/game.php?game=19


http://dom3.matryx.org.uk/game.php?game=20

(be sure to thank him!)

Re: New Status Screens
 

That's the one for this game. The other is for the BraveNewWorld game.

Also, the service is provided by Matryx for the SA Dom3 goons, I only registered chris' games on there. I'd still think that it would be best if chris gets his own webserver up soon, tho.

Re: New Status Screens
 

hey what happened? 74 hours tilll the next turn??? jeeze
wake me when were ready. zzzzzz http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif Bwaha

Re: New Status Screens
 

Due to a death, there has been a request for a delay in the game until Monday.

Re: New Status Screens
 

oh, sorry, is there anything we can do? Bwaha

Re: New Status Screens
 

No rush, but it looks like the server is down again.

Re: New Status Screens
 

monday is the day. i hope, but no rush. Bwaha http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: New Status Screens
 

Not to squelch on the masses of work he *does* do, but this is my website and service, not his.

Re: New Status Screens
 

Heh, thanks Matryx, that's a cool page!

Re: New Status Screens
 

well its monday http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: New Status Screens
 

Thank you Matrix!

As Ich did it for me, I didn't know; So thanks again. Its a great looking page and a lot of work has gone into it.

At some point Ich, I am going to get that webserver up - however I have a lot to learn still - I doubt it will ever look as good as Matryx's page.

However, I just got back (4am) and work is slamming me so it will be a while....

Thanks again Matryx!
Chris

Re: New Status Screens
 

It is indeed. Server will be up in a minute.

Host time will be tonight at midnight. Hope all is well with john.

Chris

Re: New Status Screens
 

Due to various reasons I won't be able to follow that game anymore in a few days, I posted for a sub already. I'll keep you guys informed.

Re: New Status Screens
 

im trying to join server...but no luck? is it down

Re: New Status Screens
 

I can't connect either....

Re: New Status Screens
 

i got turn 25 done and in the can, so to speak. the server was up for a while. it said something like 128 hours till next turn. i think this due to someone dropping out. does anyone know a newbie? i don't want to fill this game with people i know. it gives me a unfair leg up in diplomancy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Bwaha

Re: New Status Screens
 

so server is down now? i don't wanna miss my turn but i got message from host saying turns ready then i can't log in

Re: New Status Screens
 

same here http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: New Status Screens
 

Me either. Hopefully hosting will be postponed until we can all get our turns in.
