Re: The reappearing Lord of the Wild
 

I did not get a reply from Zen, but I too used an unmodded pretender. I did explain to him why I ended up going with the VQ, though.

Re: The reappearing Lord of the Wild
 

And why was that, Panther? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

New Turn is Up.

Grim Knight

North and South
 

Ahh, so peaceful in the North it looks nice.
However it also looks a little cramped how is the elbow room for you boys and girls. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
Hopefully we will have a little more peace down here soon.

Re: North and South
 

Any Last remarks Steerpike before you rub me out?

Grumble - Grumble.

Gosh! I have never been squished so quickly. Usually, I get a few more turns to live in my little pipe-dream that I am a strategic game powerhouse (and young, tall, thin and good looking).

PASHA

Re: North and South
 

turn 40 is up!

Re: North and South
 

Admittedly, the elbow room is a bit uncomfortable, kind of like a crowded movie theater or the bread lines during the Great Depression.

Krool

Pan
 

Hey your not dead yet Pasha and you have certainly put up a good fight, see if you can get your Lord of the Wild up for another attack. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
To tell you the truth I think it was insane picking on two nations at once and I think I am very lucky to be doing ok.
Fear and Paranoia do funny things to Giants.

Re: Pan
 

Turn 41 is up!

Re: Pan
 

Hmmmmmm. Not so good.

Re: Pan
 

you mean grim's global that popped up this turn?

The not so good
 

I think it refers to a certain battle played out Last turn.
Didnt go so well.

Re: The not so good
 

Not much going on here in Panland. The Giants are picking their noses outside my Last castle, but they "can't harm our walls."

Yay!!! Go Pan, Go Pan, Go Pan, Go Pan!!!!

Death
 

Yuk! Alas, the Noble Pan-folk have been wiped out by a cloud of Giant stench.

See ya later, boys! Catch you guys in the next game!

Re: Death
 

Take care Pasha.

Re: Death
 

Pasha, sorry to see you go (and I'm sure the Giants next victim is as well).

Of course, we'll have to have another Newbies Slug Fest after this one...

Krool

Re: Death
 

"Giants victim"?
We are a peaceful peoples who prefer to till our frozen fields and drink a bit.
We have been forced to ...uhm... take care of Pans lands due to their incessant partying.
We the Giants Vow to not attack another Nation unless we are ourselves attacked.
Unfortunately we have two turns before this attack will come to pass.
Mistress Candace the spokesfiend for The Devil Queen has formally slapped my ambasador in the face with a rather nasty rusted spiked gauntlett. When his broken jaw was healed by a Gygja he made it known that war was inevitable.
You boys in the North have fun with your peace and tranquility.
While we beat the snot out of each other. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Death
 

Well those Northern nations don't look too trusting to me. I see basically everybodies lands since the water is all over and I see armies all over their borders like they are expecting to be invaded or they are ready to invade. I am expecting massive bloodshed in the north.

Re: Death
 

The North is as peaceful as ever, we have even began exchanging our women in mutual respect (although I've demanded that the Lizard Nation equip their women with bags over their heads)!

Krool

Bloody rivers
 

I think the north has been tired talking about phylosophy and true meaning of love, and the rivers are beginning to be blood tainted (I think Aku will like the taste of water afterwards).
It seems that everybody was waiting someone (me) making a little local war without importance to match the North War.
I think I'll not survive, but will be remembered as Serbia in WW1.
This only to alert that in the south and in the east there are very big and evil guys.

I'm just trying to compassionate someone ...

Re: Bloody rivers
 

I know english is your second language Beorne but that is probably the finest sentence I have read since "All your base are belong to us". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
http://www.planettribes.com/allyourbase/
If you let me I think I will use it before attacking someone in the future.

Re: Bloody rivers
 

Turn 45 should be up. Sorry for taking so long.

Re: Bloody rivers
 

I commonly raise a glass to Lepakko. His English is usually non-standard, but he never fails to make his meaning perfectly clear (and usually with charming word choice).

Re: Bloody rivers
 

OK, NO DISRESPECT AT ALL!
Lepakko you are a freakin genius, just your sig is genius "Just Brain mean"... wow!
Thanks Pasha, I dont read these forums enough and why is it that these non native english speakers come up with such amazing stuff? My favourite that is not idiosyncratic "God has spoken" or this http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...277&Forum=,All_Forums,&Words=&Searchpage=1&Limit =25&Main=287521&Search=true&where=body sub&Name=5662&daterange=1&newerval=5&a mp;newertype=y&olderval=&oldertype=&bo dyprev=#Post288277 , nice.

Re: Game Error
 

I am getting a Nagot error- Bad packet.

Anyone else having troubles?

Re: Game Error
 

It's running fine for me. I had some tough problems a month back. The game created a strange tmp file but not in the tmp folder. Are you able to get into your games at all?

Re: Game Error
 

I got it to work after about 30 tries. I think it is this lousy hotel interconnection, for I am having problems with everything this evening.

Re: Game Error
 

Too bad that you are out Pasha .
So no rematch Pan vs. Machaka http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif .

I saw your Last fight the 14 hp niefel jarl prophet looked funny http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif .


Hopefully Slugfest 3 starts soon and you are in again Pasha . Have fun meanwhile http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif .

Re: Game Error
 

Thanks, Boron. Someday, I will get a chance to squish you. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

A LOT of freaking devils!
 

How many ice devils has Abyssia?
ALL OF THEM! 5
How many devils has the devil Queen?
I dont know I lost count, thats how many devils she has!
Be glad my friends that she decided to go for what she considers her greatest threat first.
And know that you will be next.
BWAHHAHHAAAHHHAAAAAHHAHHHAAAAAAA.

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Seriously though, this is going to be one helluva fight so bring your scouts down and enjoy the show, if they are not already there (Boron).

Panther Spawn
 

Ha! I already lost to the Fearsome Panther. Now, I think, I have a chance to take on the http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/skull.gif Spawn of the Panther http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/skull.gif in Spoapyfrog's Randomosity game. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Re: Panther Spawn
 

Oh so you were attacked by both Panther + Steerpike ? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Panther Spawn
 

I just had a thought, if Panther is a Ghost King and his wife is a Vampire Queen, what does that make his son? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif

Re: Panther Spawn
 

To clarify... I was gutted swiftly by Panther in the 1st Slugfest. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif Obviously, he is pure evil.

(Although, some goodie-two-shoes at Pan National News insists that I disclose for the record that Panther was honorable and unopportunistic in the 2nd Slugfest because he refrained from chomping me while Steerpike was crashing the Wild Lord's party.) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Unhappy giants
 

I have discovered on the Last turn that my pretender is a rather effective soloist( I dislike the SC term due to it being a bit over used and SUPER Combatant doesnt ring true for a Jarl or a mere pretender).
Unfortunately every other effective unit I have is dead. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
I am not sure why the game is accusing Boron of bing a cheater but I think that I read some info about the alchemist stone setting off the cheater detector in the Last patch. I will chose to believe this is the case until proven otherwise.
Overall not doing too bad after Last turn, and will try to hold off Abyssia for a few more turns for you Northern Peaceniks. I am up against a rocket scientist as my friend Pasha keeps drilling into me everytime I tell him of my troubles. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
Well scientists, even rocket scientists are nerds so there. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
Dragonfire can you please die soon so I can concentrate on Panther! I mean holding on beyond every expectation two games in a row is ...well annoying for the parties concerned. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Unhappy giants
 

"[b]eyond every expectation" huh? What, you don't expect me to win the whole thing? Perhaps I'm just luring you deep into my frozen lands to expose your soft side to you strong neighbors. Or perhaps I'm shocked I'm still here too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Unhappy giants
 

Ah man the fight with Jotums god was insane. He was down all the way to 50hp and fought his way back and won the battle!

Re: Unhappy giants
 

The Devil Queen was in council with her two most trusted advisors, Sir Deviant - Minister of War and Madam Candice - Minister of State.

The Queen: "You said Plan A was infallible! You said we would have the giant's capitol quite easily. What happenned?"
Sir Deviant: "Um, Stonebrow himself came to the rescue. And the people strongly believed in that false pretender, making him stronger than he really is."
Madam Candice: "My husband is correct. After all, my Queen, you did not participate in the battle as a counterbalance."
The Queen: "I know, but the people living there do not believe in me. You said it was far too dangerous for me to venture into such hostile lands."
Sir Deviant: "It is."
The Queen: "So I cannot help the war effort?"
Madam Candice: "Not Yet."
The Queen: "So what do we do now?"
Sir Deviant: "Plan B."
The Queen: "Yes, Plan B, Plan B!!! Always Plan B. And if that fails?"
Madam Candice: "Then there is Plan C."
The Queen: "I should have known..."

Re: Unhappy giants
 

Yeah i don't know how it triggered . I was really shocked http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif .
I have the alchemist stone but iirc i didn't use it Last turn for alchemizing .

I could give someone not in the game my password to verify that everything is ok . I would suggest Thufir for this task .

Re: Unhappy giants
 

New turn up.

Patch
 

Is it possible to locally patch with 2.15 the game?

Re: Unhappy giants
 

Thnx http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif


If possible i would vote for continuing with patch 2.15 as well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif .
If this is impossible just tell me that i can use the 2.14 backup exe cause i couldn't resist to look at the new oceania nation http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

2.15 Patch
 

Who thinks I should patch to 2.15?

If a majority thinks I should then I will disable quickhost and once everyone has completed their turns I will manually run the host and then run the patch before anyone takes another turn.

Let me know if this is something you think I should do or not.

Re: 2.15 Patch
 

So far it looks like Beorne and Boron would be for it.

Anyone Else?

Re: 2.15 Patch

I vote for 2.15.

I also ask for a decrease in the hosting schedule to 2 or 3 day QH over the upcoming holidays. I would hate to have several stales during my massive, ongoing war effort.
