Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
 

I've changed your email and resent the turn, just to make sure it's working, Kristoffer. Since the wiki's been set up could people start restricting their writeups to there, please? I'm assuming that your post below the request is for Turn 1, Kristoffer, or is it just a little commentary?

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
 

It was just a response to me being second in doing my turn. Baalz (IIRC he is Ulm) managed to get his turn in befor I did :)

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
 

I blame differing timezones...

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
 

IIRC, there was an idea that "Secret Pacts" were also written in-character, to be posted later, when their secretness isn't important anymore. While public diplomacy remains public - it's quite advantageous, after all, to have your neighbor know that you already have 2 allies... ;)
I personally am for this.

Re: Chronicles - Inspired by Baalz, engineered by Lokean - Pre-game discussion
 

I would point out that nations do not commonly hold their negotiations in public, so if you do diplominate in character it would not make sense to post it.
However, most nations do make it very public what the fruits of diplomacy bring, so I would suggest that proclamations of Marignon's alliance with R'lyeh, which will bring the fires of truth to all corners of the world both above and below the waves and last for all time, would be not only appropriate but hilarious when R'lyeh simultaneously sabotages seven of Marignon's military and research centers with remote attack rituals a year later...


Anyway, since the game's now up and running I'm going to use the other thread and sort out the EA game...

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Agree to that. But we can post official communiques on any negotiations - you know, the sort that leaves everyone wondering... ;)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I can't find the official Chroncles_MP thread with all players, link to wiki, etc. in the first post.

This one is edited and says something about the splitting, but no links.

Any hint?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Lch asked me not to put links to the wiki in the public threads yet, but I sent you a PM with the link in, didn't I?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

ok sorry and thanks :). I totally forgot the PM.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Hosting postponed until the 27th, for those busy over Christmas. Hunt11 has asked for a delay until 2nd January, so I'll probably end up redelaying it further.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

OK, pity, I'm visiting my folks and have nothing to do but play dominions and writing stuff :)

I think I'm getting hang of the wiki. I edited my turn page at first, but realized it was not linked to the nation page. So when I made the nation page I got a double post on the turn page. But now everything seems nice and good.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I have added a decree headline on my wiki in accordance with my previous post on Ulm.

Added: gifts presented to a particular minister will not be taken by the bureaucracy. The stated receiver will get items unless they are deemed harmful, or if the Emperor (or someobne else) finds out and confiscates the item. Such actions will enter the wiki.

Also, feel free to negotiate with individual commanders and mages. The emperor is not allseeing, and not all generals are necessarily true to his cause.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Thanks someone! :)

My decree was not properly organized after all it seemed. When I tried to fix stuff I lost my connection. When I restarted everything was fine and the coding was slightly changed :)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Pity. Until January seems a long way... :(

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I like that twist... ;)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Going away and coming back on January 2nd! Plz delay? :) Cya guys!! Best wishes for the new year!! :cheers:

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Wrana and Otherling staled this turn. Was this due to miscommunication somewhere or simple oversight?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Hi, I'm back at home, so I can read my normal mail again. How do I get the llamaserver to change my adress back to my normal one?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Lokean needs to do that mr. Kristoffer. You should PM him your new mail address ;)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Said and done.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

The wiki seems to be on turn 3 still?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I would say it is due to holidays and the someone stales always glitch.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

At least in my case, just a result of a busy holiday season. Got the turn end for this one mixed up with another game I'm in, and thought I had another day or so. Should be fine from here.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Just letting everyone know that I've set up the pages for turns 4 and 5 on the wiki, so if you have anything to put up, you can get to it.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Sorry for my staling. I must have messed with the mail inadvertently.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Also sorry for staling. When I returned home at 9 at the morning :) , I missed that current turn should be sent immediately. Fortunately, holidays are almost over (Orthodox Christmas still ahead, but...).

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

The Hoburgs staled last turn and looks like they might stale again. As much as we are tempted to see how easy it is to trample hobbits, we'd rather see them defend themselves.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Sorry for not having written for a while. I've now written another chapter, on the turn 5, another will arrive at turn 10. Great to see many of you guys have continued writing your stories, I really appreciate the diversity and uniqueness of the writing styles :)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Should we look for a sub for Ylvali/Hoburg or set them AI? He's staled 3 out of 7, including the last two and doesn't seem to be around...

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

He's staling even in Joker... Plz set a delay while we search for a sub not to have this nation stale even more?

What a pity in a game like this where the personality of the writer is so important :(

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

The latest Jotun writeup appear on every turn. A missing noinclude or something?

There is still no ministry of supernatural affairs. It seems likely that supernatural contacts will be accepted once a year, since supernatural beings are less concerned with the passing of time and are in no hurry.

Since winter is the time when the supernatural is the strongest this will likely be the time when the ministry contacts supernatural entities.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I'm not sure if I did this right, I edited some code of Jotun wiki page to expand to turn 9. Can someone have a look at my source code?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I took care of it. For everyone's information, here's the "code" for a turn entry:

<noinclude>
== [[Chronicles:Turn_7|Turn 7]] ==
</noinclude>{{#ifeq: {{{turn|7}}} |7|

}}

Here's what you'd put up, solmyr:

<noinclude>
== [[Chronicles:Turn_7|Turn 7]] ==
</noinclude>{{#ifeq: {{{turn|7}}} |7|
}}

}}

(N.b.:the error is bolded for identification)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Sorry for missing writeups. There was not much to write about, but still... I have about 2 stories which are possible at the moment, one of which is a few days back. Hopefully, another would occur soon...

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Like Vanslime wrote, put the text in-between the curly {{ ... }} braces, that's important.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I am pretty much offline at this point, RL problems. I'm going to have to hand over the admin to somebody else. Since lch is handling the database I'm going to PM him the llamaserver password, he can hand it off from there is necessary.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Uhm, to the other players, please prod me if there's anything wrong with the game that would require me to do administrative tasks. I have practically no net access at home except for a very shaky WLAN connection, so emails or PMs would be the best.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I can take over as Admin. So shall we look for a Hoburg sub, or turn them AI?
The short, tragic tale of the Hoburg alliance... :(

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

I don't really think it's possible to find a sub for a game so... "personal". He already missed some turns. If you find a sub, better of course... try ;)

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

The good news is we have a sub - rdonj kindly volunteered to take over and do what he can to save the Hoburgs. The bad news is I haven't been able to get a response from lch, lokean, or llamabeast yet so don't have the admin password to be able to switch emails. Hopefully we can get things back up and running shortly...

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Hope so. We'll not attack the little buggers at least until the new sub is here :D

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Still no word from llama, lokean or lch. Help?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Did you pm all 3? I think we need an active player as admin asap.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Yep, I have PMed them all. Just PMed llamabeast again.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Yay! LLamabeast has responded. Game should be back on - still need TC and Shin to take turns, along with Hoburgs once they get a chance to review the situation.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Alright, I have my turn file and will turn it in shortly. It's only turn 9 so I doubt a whole lot of diplomacy has been done so far, but if anyone has something I need to know, feel free to pm me.

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

rdonj,
I believe the Alliance part of The Hoburg Alliance was with Caelum. They where about to share some of that extra gold that has been accumulating/lying about Horburg for some months with their favorite compatriots... ;)

All - I believe Yivali is "she". Fine player if memory serves. Sad she dropped out but welcome rdonj!

-SSJ

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Hi folks, sorry, I was on a short vacation for half a week with deliberately no net access, which started about exactly when doncorazon PM'ed me. From what I can read, the problem has been dealt with, and I assume that doncorazon can admin now, too?

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

lch, thanks. :)
Yes, game is back on track and I can take over as admin. - just waiting on Shin and TC. Next turn is set to host in ~ 12 hours...

Re: Chronicles_MA - General Game Discussion
 

Sent.
