Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

well, I've taken over Jomon from rdonj cause he needed to leave his current games. hopefully I can survive at least for a little while in this seemingly very intense late game.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

I got an email reminder saying that sharivar was hosting soon... is this just the llamaserver acting up, or does blackguard not have control yet?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Welcome on board 13lackGu4rd. I've got your email from rdonj and set it up in the server. I've also requested for the turn to be resent to you. Can you please confirm that you got it?

Guys, I've added 48h for the sake of 13lackGu4rd. Please be patient and allow him this extra time to get his bearings and submit the turn.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

yeah I've got the turn, taking my time because well, I've just landed in the middle of a very intense late game :P don't wanna start doing stupid things right from the get go... :eek: so anyway I'll send in my turns later today

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

I've set the host interval to 120h.
We're now officially on cruise control :)

Oh, and I watched from afar the epic rise and fall of Atlantis, the frozen nation. GG Fantomen, was great to have you on board.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Apparently, llamaserver is shutdown until it gets a chance to upgrade. This suggests that we'll all need to upgrade before submitting the current turn (or resubmit if needed).

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

well, llamaserver is back up with the new patch, but for some reason it says I had a stale turn. anybody else had that? or what's the deal...? I did send my turn before the patch and resent it afterwards, so no reason for it to stale unless it's something to do with llamaserver itself... anyway due to the whole new patch mess I've kinda lost the timing of this game, so I'll need 24 hours from now to complete my turn, not sure when the timeline is, so if it'll pass than I'd ask for an extension.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

"The next 2h file is due in by 22:26 GMT on Tuesday March 16th."
good enough?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

yeah that's great, any thoughts on the stale turn issue?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Did you upgrade?
Did you see the confirmation email from the server that he got your turn?
I wasn't aware that you staled but I did notice you were the last to send the turn - meaning the server showed your status as turn not sent. Perhaps you should have resent the turn.
Do you know how to check the game status on the server?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

I did receive the confirmation mail last turn, and I know how to check game status(as in who sent/not sent turns yet) on llamaserver. didn't check the status cause I received the confirmation mail last turn...

and yes, I did upgrade to the new patch...

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Ooch. Sounds like a server glitch :(
I guess the server "lost" your turn after sending the confirmation.
I may suggest a best practice here: always double check the status on server, esp. after server shutdowns.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

going out of town until thursday, my current turn is in but I won't be able to play the next turn until I get back, so I'll need an extension...

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

NP. Just plz remind me closer to date.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Please add 12h delay for this turn.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Please ask sooner for extensions. I could just as well have missed your request since it's late night here.

12h added.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Can we set the game to host 2350 Sun, I have done most of my turn but I have a very busy saturday, so prefer to finish it in a relaxed fashion Sunday.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

sure thing :)

24h added

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

WL, please add 24h again. It seems now I have time to do long turns only on weekends so the ideal hosting time would be Saturday night, so I make one turn on Saturday and one on Sunday :)

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

sure. would you like to add one day to turn around?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

I think we better go with current schedule. I'll try to send delay requests early enough if I need it.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Um, I'm sorry to ask again, but it was decided that we will work this weekend since our company takes part in some exhibition next week and we have to finish some things before it starts, so I have to ask for another extension, but unfortunately I don't know when I'll be able to finish the turn... I think I'll have a free day somewhere in the middle of the next week. Can you just add a week extension to current turn and I'll send my turn as soon as I'll be able to finish it?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Dimaz, I've no problem with that.
I really hope the other players wouldn't mind too much. This can happen to any player and the game is at such a late stage that finding a sub for one turn doesn't make much sense.

Edit: I've added three days. Please just ping me later on if you find that it's not enough and I'll add more.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Hi Wraith,

Can you change the hosting time to late Sun, like around 2300 hrs? Saturdays are just too busy for me.

In fact can I have that as a standing order? Anytime hosting falls on a Saturday change it to late Sunday.

Thanks,

Meglob.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

done.

re. standing order, I'll do my best but I suggest you remind me to make sure I don't forget.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Urgh!

Due to host Sat night again, can you change it to host Sun night, cheers.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

done :)

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Three astral mages of mine were mind hunted (and died) this turn. Does that make sense to you?- Should the mind hunter go feeble minded???

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Astral 1 40% sever mages cord
Astral 2 80% etc

What lvl in S magic did they have?:D Only 3S is 100% sure.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

hihi, lvl 1. Go and have at them :D

Note to self, bring those goddaxn s2 mages to front :doh:

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Yes, it happens sometimes. 40% usually keeps MH off if there are no healers. Actually, in CBM the pearls shortage also a big problem for massive MH (well, at least for me).

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Bah, Pan's rampant forests probably yield tons of astral gems stolen from the world's very ether. All the sensible axe wielding nations should help do some serious foliage trimming ;)

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Pan is life, Ermor is death and desolation.

Gath and Tien Chi may be happy to live out there lives as mindless skeletons at Ermor's beck and call but Pan will never bend the knee.

It has already been discussed in the groves and forests, the majority of our might and wrath will be directed at Ermor in the hope that they can be stopped and another world avoid becoming a lifeless husk...

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Sounds cool ;)

Since Ermor has little raiding capabilities and it's armies move at the speed of a crippled turtle, the least it can do for it's friends is take a good beating and maybe, just maybe, allow them to burn those hated forests to the ground :)

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Due to host Sat night again, can you put it to Sun night?

Cheers.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

done.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

per player request "Hosting postponed for Sharivar1 by 12 hours. The game will now host at 11:35 GMT on Saturday June 5th."

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

21h extension granted.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Per player request: Hosting postponed for Sharivar1 by 48 hours. The game will now host at 00:10 GMT on Friday June 18th.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Houston, we have a problem:

"Hi. On trying to host Sharivar1 just now, Dominions crashed. This is not a LlamaServer issue, but rather Dominions itself crashed with a "Nagot gick fel" error.

These errors are normally caused by a (generally inexplicable) problem with one of the players' 2h files. Therefore the LlamaServer moved all your 2h files away before hosting again. This is why you will receive a new turn file in which you've staled.

There are two options from here. Either you can treat the stale turn as a random event and carry on with the game, or you can roll back the turn and try to host again. If you try the latter your game admin will have to do the rollback via the admin options on the LlamaServer website, and you will all have to do your turns again. Note that in this case it is _really important_ that you actually do redo your turn, rather than just sending in the same one again (which people sometimes seem to do because they don't believe me). If you just send in the same file, hosting will simply fail again.

I hope you manage to get the game back on course, whichever option you go for.
"
I personally didn't get any .trn file.
I think we need discuss and maybe vote how to proceed.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

OMG, the server has deleted our game :(

I need to get out of home now but I'll contact llamabeast when I'm back.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Its all ok now Wraith but make sure you change the timer, might struggle to do my turn in 24hrs...:D

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

The admin pwd for this game has been altered (probably by server glitch) - so for now my host powers are doused and we're risking a mass stale :(

I'll ask llamabeast to help. Please do not submit the turns until the situation with the server is resolved. It would also be unfair for one player to submit a turn while all the rest stale and a rollback would create all kinds of complications. So let's just avoid getting there.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

PW provided!

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Thanks llamabeast!

FYI: Hosting postponed for Sharivar1 by 120 hours. The game will now host at 03:22 GMT on Friday June 25th.

Now that game is safe and sound -> *sleep*

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

why am I still getting emails about Sharivar when I'm long dead...? I got new turns, hosting errors and all those other things going on when I'm not even in the game any more.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

no clue here.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Looks like we have 12 hrs to do us next turn, now where are those boots of quickness?

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

Fixed :)

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 

"Hosting postponed for Sharivar1 by 72 hours. The game will now host at 20:45 GMT on Wednesday July 7th."

Due to my birthday & moving to new house.
