Ok cut it out. This thread is not about discussing who is really an honor-less dog. We can call each other dishonorable but only in role-play fashion, rather than in person. Of course all the word war thats been going on between you two (the last 17 posts has been by either Executor or MadFrancis) might not be written in serious fashion and out of seriousness, but I still felt like I should say something (stupid or not) in order to stop the endless row of these two posters.

I didn't start this and didn't make it personal, but I am more than happy to see this charade over.
Like I said what's done is done let's forget the whole damn thing and continue.

Maybe if the community would have stepped in sooner this wouldn't be happening. But instead everyoen was content to let Executor run around throwing verabl abuse about and threatening to ruin the game (by casting Armegeddon) because of the type of people he was playing with. I will ALWAYS defend myself if someone calls me out publicly. So maybe instead of getting tired of the argument, the community could have standards of civility that it tries to maintain for everyone's sake. If calling people names and threatening to ruin the game because you don't care for the people you are playing with is acceptable to this community maybe I shouldn't bother with Dom3.

I am new to this community, but so far my experiences have been fairly negative. I have been jumped all over for asking for a turn 1 restart to a game that had been started and renamed three or four times which caused me to miss the starting email. From people's responses here (ComfortZone thread) you would have thought I was asking for their first born child.

And this. Coming to check out the thread of the game I have been playing for about a month and a half and seeing someone calling the people he is at war with names (personally and not in RP style) and threatening to ruin the game because he didn't like the players he was playing with.

Those are my introduction to the Dom3 community. You guys sure are welcoming. I'm shocked this place isn't just crawling with even more people wanting to be a part of this community.

I am not angry, or upset. Just responding to the crap I've been served since I've tried to become a member of this community.

You are by far the most hardheaded and narrow sighted person I know.

Armagedon was an e.g. as I don't even have the capability to use it. And yet again you missed the point there.

To me it seem that you're starting rows in all the games you're in. Maybe the problem is not in other players but in you?

The only shocking thing here is your behavior, as you take everything personally and try to turn it around. This community comes out as nothing BUT welcoming it's just you that has a problem with everyone.

Once again I ask who did I verbaly abuse, threaten and such? If people here thins that I am abusing then and threatening them I will gladly step out of this game as I am tired of pointlessly arguing with you.

In this game every single player is a honourless dog if the situation rises. It's a game for world domination, one wins and everyone else lose.

Now, both of you, calm down and have a beer :beer:

By the way, internets arguments.

There were so many subs in this game that I'd like to ask for a complete list of players currently controlling nations in the game because I'm completely misled. :)

Current turn due date extended by 24 hours as requested by WingedDog.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
If any of you guys need turn extensions for the holidays, lemme know.
Aapeli has requested that no turn be due the 24-26 in another game I'm admining, I will assume that will carry over to this game as well and therefore it shall be.

Executor December 20th, 2008 10:25 AM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
I would need the game extended from 31-2, I'll probably be able to make the turn, but just in case.

Slobby December 20th, 2008 11:03 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Another little tid bit for those players that have forgetten and for the new players that probably don't know.

The victory condition as outlined in the opening thread is to hold 6 capitals for 3 full turns.

Now it doesn't look like the victory condition is recorded via VP, so I propose that once a player has captured their 6th capital, they save the .trn & .2h for each turn of their countdown turns so that there will be proof that you've met the victory requirement.

The terms are vague I suggest going this way,

Turn 1 - You've captured your 6th capital yay!
Turn 2 - You hold all 6
Turn 3 - You hold all 6
Turn 4 - You still have all 6. Congratulations you win!

I will also assume that your starting capital is included in the 6, therefore you only need to take 5. Also if at any point during the countdown you lose one of the 6 the countdown is turned back to 1 once you get your 6th again.

Once any player has met the condition and has their back ups ready to go, pm me and the game will be paused as the turns are checked.

Executor December 20th, 2008 11:27 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Does that include provinces or just forts? Just to be sure...

I'm unsure exactly what you're asking, maybe this will clairfy.

I'm sure you've probably noticed that not all the capital provinces are named after the race. As such the person checking the files will be informed of the province number/location and will then click on the province and must be able to click on the special sites to verify that it is indeed a capital location. Being able to pull up the site description will be the check that you do own it.

Also if one of the capitals had their fort razed, owning the province is still considered towards the 6 capitals needed. (I think this is what you were asking, is that why I can't find the capital of Arco ;))

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Well since everyone is taking off at different times, I think I'll follow Pasha's example and set the hosting to casual (manually postponing when turns are due). I would hope that we can get this turn and another turn in and done over the next week. I'll continue this way until after new years. Enjoy the holidays all!

Slobby January 1st, 2009 09:37 AM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
I trust everyone had a good holidays.

I'd like to get back into the swing of things, unfortunately Zenzei seems to have disappeared! So, I will postpone this turn one more 24 hour period so that it will host on Saturday 00:41 GMT. Once it hosts we'll be back on our usual 72hr period.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Well, it looks like Agartha is done for .. but I can't tell since my alexander.tga seems to have dissapeared and I cannot find it on the forums (the map sip only contained the .map file). In any case, I think it's probably safe to say that Agarta could be safely turned to AI. They are done for. No troops, and even if they did have troops none of them would have a bless :P

Yep, don't give up, I made my stand for you, now you're setting me up. You're not doomed at all, at least find yourself a sub, but do not go AI.

yeah. I downloaded that .rar and only got the .map piece of the map for some reason ... I'm not giving up ... the game is over for Agartha. Whoever designed this build thought it would be a good idea to not have ANY bless at all. On EA Agartha. No bless ....


No bless .....


at all ....

I am not going AI. I just can't get into my turn without hunting down where the rest of that map file went ...

EDIT: I got a friend to email me the .tga file and submitted my turn. No need to have someone else set me to AI.

I know there are many advantageous players in this game, but has anyone considered finding a sub for Cealum or is everyone content to let him stale out the game?

Rest assured if he stales this turn, which it looks like he will, I will find a sub.

I liked that pretender more while he was casting earth attack.
I guess that air was an investment, didn't see it before.

Interesting... you'd suppose that arrow fend would work against rain of stones but no.
That was a horrible loss.

WingedDog January 14th, 2009 07:49 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
I thought arrow fend counters rain of stones as well, and the result was a surprise for me too.

Looks like WingedDog has gone on a little trip. He's asked for a game delay until Thursday, and it shall be so. :)

My congratulations to whoever casted seeking arrow at me. You managed to kill one mictlan priest with 25 gems worth arrows. Yes that is about 2 gold per gem ratio.

It's turn 68 now, isn't it about time to move the hosting interval a bit? The turns take quite a bit to do now.

WingedDog January 24th, 2009 03:16 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Yes, totaly agree, I'm a little busy lately, so, if possible could there be interval increase?

Slobby January 24th, 2009 03:40 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
sure I'll make it 96h, do you guys want a 24h extension on this turn?

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
I could use it.

WingedDog January 24th, 2009 04:17 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Yes, if possible, please make a delay.

Well seeing that by my count you have 4 caps and that the 3 on 1 is pretty much a 2 on 1 now I felt obliged to step into the fray. :)

Executor January 26th, 2009 08:45 AM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Well what can I say your count is wrong, I have 3 capitals just as same as Sauromatia, and some other players, by I'm the one being teamed on the whole game.

Slobby January 28th, 2009 10:40 PM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Just an fyi, WD has asked for a slight turn extension of 5 hours, which I have granted. I could also use a slight extension so I have extended the current turn by 8 hours total (although I doubt I'll be submitting my turn right on the button so it will probably host sooner than I've postponed it).

I'd like to apologize to everybody for all the constant delays. I have problems with spare time recently.
And my eternal gratitude to our admin Slobby for granting me extentions.

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
WD sent me a pm requesting a delay till Sunday, and that he will be looking for a sub for his position. The delay has been granted.

WingedDog February 18th, 2009 12:49 AM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
Correction: the only reason I want to find a sub is lack of free time this year, I can only submit my turns during the weekends. So I'd like to ask for opinion of the other players if it is OK for them to increase hosting time to 1 week.

Executor February 19th, 2009 03:40 AM

Re: Beer game! EA - Signup Closed!
 
1 week hosting interval sounds too long for me, i think people will lose interest in the game and forget waht the hell they were doing, but if everyone else agrees I won't be the one to object.
