so far i've seen 2vps that were indies... and i assume many more are

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Huh... I don't know what that is, I was pretty sure only the one vp got misplaced. Can you tell me the province numbers?

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I will be out of town and away from internet access from Oct 23 - 25 for a funeral. Could we make it a long weekend pause for this game please? If not, I will look for a sub, or just stale a turn.

I'll be back Monday morning, the 26th.

Thanks

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Is the game off entirely?

I was the last holdout, sorry I'm taking so long to do my turns. Anyway, I realized I hadn't sent in and mailed it off, but llamaserver doesn't seem to ahve noticed...

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

The llamaserver has been offline for most of yesterday, and I don't know how much of today. That said, it looks like it's operational again, so I think turns can be submitted now.

Lingchih - Yeah, I'll postpone hosting long enough for you to get back, you won't have to stale.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Thanks much rdonj.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Has anyone gotten turn 13? It seems like llamaserver hosted turn 12, but didn't send anything out. Did it lose our e-mail addresses?

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Turn 12 on the 18th was the last I got.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Yeah, Llamaserver is kind of dead. Give it a few days. Llama will probably get it running again over the weekend.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Many/all llamaserver games are experiencing difficulties at the moment. I am playing 3 myself that are in the exact same state as overlords, and another that is yet to start that I assume will be similarly affected. Basically we all just have to wait it out.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

As per the llamaserver thread, what once was broken now appears to be fixed. If you haven't received your turns yet, go to the game page on the llamaserver and request a resend for your nation. Everything should be working now.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

OK, I'm sorry I had to take some time off to attend a funeral. I'm in now though. And two of you are not? C'mon guys, you gonna take until Friday?
Sheesh.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Yeah, it seems like the later the time limit is set the later people will post--despite turns taking <20 minutes still. Granted I know I suck, so perhaps my planning simply isn't nearly as rigorous and in-depth. ;)

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Yeah, that is an unfortunate truth that I am proving in a certain game of mine. Anyways, once this turn hosts you'll be back at 48 hours and it shouldn't be nearly so bad. I was just hesitant to set the timer back after llamabeast bumped up the hostings for all the games. It's just not a good idea to subtract time from hosting.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Caelum's AAR is... "AAAAARRRR!" :hurt:

The combined might of R'yleh and Vanheim have scattered my elephant horde and smashed my winged army. I must admit I was taken completely off guard by the skinshifter rush. I was quite certain all us wee folk would gang up on neighborhood Overlords first... Anyway, Good luck to all in this game.

-ssj

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Sorry to see you go, San. Good game.

And, I would once again caution anyone about going into Ashdod lands, or into Ashdod dominion.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

There seems to be some normal nations that feel war with TC is a winnable proposition. Its not. In addition to our own vast armies, we have certain allies who are not to be scoffed at.

On the other hand, I am leading the research race, and no small fraction of that is construction. I have quite a diversity of magical paths. Trading with me could be of great benefit to any nation.

TC is willing to live in peace with its neighbors if they will live in peace with us (at least most of them... a certain nation has earned our ire and will not be spared). The emperor gives those nations this chance to forsake this foolishness and ally themselves with us.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

It was fun, Sansanjuan, you put up a good resistance all things considered. And I'm sorry about the rush.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Uhhh... Concentrating on Construction on a nation without recruitable thug commanders means just banking on the future and relying on momentary peace.

In other words you've just admitted that if anyone is going to find you a paper tiger at any moment, that moment is the current one. :-P

Just saying.

Good thing we Marignonians are both peaceful and walking around with a big stick, right?

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Crazy Jadros says "bring it" chubby!

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I said i had a decent amount, not that I had concentrated on it. I think you'd find my research is quite diverse.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Alas, I shall be out of the state Friday-Sunday, and most probably will require an extension for next turn.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I'm really only supposed to give you guys 4 hour extensions for this game. I made an exception for Lingchih because he was going to a funeral and all that craziness with the llamaserver was going on. So I would suggest looking for someone to play one turn for you, if possible. But if there isn't any objection to it I guess I could grant you a longer extension. That rule is sort of a holdback from when I was considering trying to make this into a mega game.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Given how people have been slow on inputting turns, I'm not terribly worried. There'll probably be a turn Saturday, and I can make the 48 hour clock on that one. Yeah, don't even worry about it on second thought. It would just give another excuse for people to delay.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

so maybe if we just turn quickhost off for this one turn that will solve the issue?

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I've gone ahead and done that. Someone please remind me in this thread or a pm when the turn hosts.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

anyone want to trade me some non fire gems for my fire gems?


pm or ingame or irc


i'm namad on the forums eriu in game and on irc i'm namad5

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Well because a mistake of TC, the god of TC is dead now.And i am not supposed to use the gatestone i acquired, am i right ?
I am currently at war with TC.Any nation at war with TC should take full advantage of this accident.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Feel free to use it. You have pried an artifact of great power from the hands of a god. Enjoy your reward.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

anyone want to forge me any E or S items and be paid in A or N gems? (or F)

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I would assume that in general E and S seriously outweight the other gem types. Guess if you paid some serious premium...

And here's to the fallen mighty:

Dun dun dun!

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

looking to trade fand gems for es gems or es items

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

looking to trade F/D gems for W/E gems or S-forging

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Gah, I'm glad that's over. This game started bad, and then went down hill from there :p

Good luck to the rest of you all.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

anyone want to trade me non-fire gems for fire gems?

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

also i'd be into getting some dwarf hammers in exchange for


fdan gems or gold for an forged items or a combination of those

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Ugh, I really should've taken fortune and a dormant pretender. Especially since he died on turn 1.

Okay, I'm in a war-to-the-death and I need money. Fat sacks of it. I have a variety of gems which I'm not likely to be able to spend, so anyone who needs gems, I'm willing to sell them for 20 gp each.

I've got 8A, 70E, 44D and 69N.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

drp your pm inbox is full...

either get on irc or clear some inbox space!

also i'd like some earth gems

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I have 32d gems up for trade. I'm looking for e,s,a gems in approximately that order of desirability. PM me or find me on the dominions IRC channel to negotiate a trade.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

wtt FD gems for ESN type gems

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I will not be able to play the 24-27 of this month so if we are not going to have a holiday break I can maybe get a sub... or maybe Squirrelloid can take my capital before then ;)

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

wtt fire gems for non-fire gems willing to give slightly favorable ratio

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

tsk. tsk. tsk. With a little patience, Ermor would probably have had my lands without a fight.

As it is, Ermor has betrayed me (pretend surprise!). Good show! Hardly anyone ever treaches in this game.

That said, I retain a sizeable gem stockpile and would like to purchase items to use in my defense. I can use earth, fire, death or nature boosters, spell penetration or accuracy-boosting items. I will pay a 50% markup, and if any items survive (which is likely, but cannot be guaranteed), I will return them to the ones from whom they were purchased - preferentially to anyone who would accept flexible gem types in payment.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

Is llamaserver down? I just sent in my turn but got no reply. Also, it would appear that there's some lag:

Last updated at 19:15 GMT on Sunday November 22nd
Current time: 20:10 GMT

Anyway, going to bed soon, so a delay would be appreciated if my turn just doesn't turn up when llamaserver wakes up. Thanks.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I have same problem. Turn is sent but no reply from llammaserver.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

omg omg omg i'm sooooo sorry I had no idea that would happen ... I can't believe allied armies caused that

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

It appears the turns got in OK, there were just no confirmation emails sent.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I'm wondering if I could get a 12hour delay I didn't finish my turn yet and I've got to go somewhere for the day. If it's not granted I should be able to submit my incomplete turn though.

Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)
 

I can give you a 4 hour delay but no more than that as per the OP. I hope that will give you the chance to spend slightly longer on your turn.
