Thanks for subbing in and getting this game back on the road, Demon.

thanks

Tien Chi is interested in trading for nature, air, death and virgins. We can offer the other gems 1:1 or base a deal on crafting items.

Looking for Horror Helmet will trade nature gems

I haven't received the latest turn. No idea why. Mail seems to be working fine.

Can it be resent?

Amonchakad July 13th, 2009 01:15 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Just click on "Request turn resend" on the game page.

How did I miss that.

Thanks. It worked.

Lanka will be gone for a bit, and is looking for a temporary sub for a week.

Any takers, send me a PM!

Caelum is buying death gems, will trade air, water or astral 1:1. PM me.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I've got a small delay and I'm no longer sure I'll be at home before hosting time. A delay of just 2 hours would be greatly appreciated.

Apologies for not getting to the board and seeing your request in time. I was asleep this morning. Working night shifts every couple days messes a person up a bit.

Welcome Baalz.

I have a feeling most of the players here owe their strategies to you!

I'd also like to request a 4hr extension - i'm out of town this weekend and might be back late.

TwoBits July 21st, 2009 01:09 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
The vultures have gathered in the West. While their god's will is absent (OOC: I'm pretty sure they staled last turn, someone might want to look into that), the flesh of the Ermorians is offered up to their ravenous beaks.

The feast should be finished soon. And whither shall the hungry ones turn their attention next?

In the East, other tidings of war and bloodshed are heard, and rumors of mighty alliances.

So who will feel the dripping blade of fate next? Well, know that the Children of the Forests, and their great goddess, the terrible Queen Pony, Mistress of the Wood, will not go into the Long Night easily. We have the means to defend ourselves well, even if we must stand alone against many. And verily, we might be destroyed, but we swear to extract such a toll that the living will envy the dead!

Would it not be better to court us than to clash with us? If you woo the Dark Lady, you will find her a most useful ally, and the dwellers in the trees have many resources that a true friend would find useful. Who will prove a worthy consort to the Mistress of Terror? We await your reply through the usual lines of communication...

Sincerely, Pangaea

Ermor has in fact staled the last two turns. He attacked Abysia, got swatted down and is currently being overrun.

Should he be set to AI, so that the armies at least move?

Yeah ... I was expecting he was going to stale twice this time and was going to prepared to find a replacement, and then I looked at my turn. Holy cow! LOL Ermor hardly exists now. I'll get him set to AI for the next turn.

Amonchakad July 23rd, 2009 03:39 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I have to report a quite serious problem. Today at about 14:00 of my timezone(which I think is GMT+1) I sent my turn as usual, and I honestly didn't check wether it was received or not, as I never had any problems...until today. Upon downloading my new turn tonight, it told me that last turn I staled, and in fact I didn't find the llamaserver's confirmation email.
Now, I don't know what's the policy in these cases...while this won't be a total disaster for me, it sure is problematic; not to mention that the failed execution of this turn caused me diplomatic problems with other nations.

I know this sucks, but I can't roll a game back because of one player's staled turn. The only times I will do this is when there is a server problem that impacts everyone's turn. As for example, when Llamaserver crashes the game while processing and stales everyone, etc.

It is getting annoying how this keeps happening with Llamaserver though. I keep hearing people in other games and here complaining about the emails not getting received. Or turn files not being delivered.

DakaSha July 23rd, 2009 08:54 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
llamaserver has issues right now.

all you have to do is check if your turn has been recieved. as long as you check up on everything all is fine. make sure llama recieves your turn and stay updated on the games status

Stretch July 23rd, 2009 11:03 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Llama has been receiving my turns late as well. I advise sending in all turns 6 hours in advance. Maybe we can change our hosting time from 48 hours to 54 hours to give people a little cushion? I think that the new Llamaserver comes online in the next couple weeks so hopefully these will be a thing of the past soon!

TheDemon July 25th, 2009 05:57 PM

Caelum still buying death gems. Will trade any gem except nature and death, and will also trade const 4 items.

Stretch July 26th, 2009 11:44 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Can I get an extension until 0100 GMT Tuesday? It will be very tough to get tomorrow's turn in without one.

So do I! Just got home from pulling a 12-hour overnight and have been awake for 22 hours and counting. I shall collapse shortly. Game delayed 24 hours.

TwoBits July 28th, 2009 11:58 AM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Are you awake yet, Firewalker? I have summoned some of the spirits of 'spirits' this eve (Demon Rum, to be specific, and his sidekick Rot Gut - you should see their stats! No gems were required in their summoning, but several pounds of gold were expended), and while having been very useful, they now demand to be entertained! They also demand you change your ID to Firewater! :D

TwoBits July 28th, 2009 12:01 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
OMG, the spirits are powerful indeed! Not seconds after I posted their demands, one has been granted (well, not the name change thingy, they're still pestering me about that! Come on, Firewater, not Firewalker! :P)!

LOL. Yeah, I dragged myself out of bed and sent in a turn. Firewater ... that would have been a good call sign! Will have to wait for my next incarnation somewhere else...

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I am going to be away this weekend, from Friday morning until sometime Sunday night, US east coast time.
With the current schedule it doesn't look like I'll need a delay. I should be able to play the current turn tonight, then the next one won't be due until sometime Monday. I would appreciate you keeping an eye on it and delaying the turn if it somehow looks like I'll stale before then. (For example, if a miracle occurs and this turn runs early, then the next one might be before I return.)

hoo July 30th, 2009 02:38 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I'm going to be on a combo of biz travel/vacation from Sunday to Thursday evening. I should be able to use an internet connection to get my turn but check please if my turn is in. Also, I'll be on vacation a week from this Saturday to the following Saturday. While I could possibly find an internet connection, I'll look for a sub.

Baalz July 30th, 2009 05:13 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I was going to volunteer to sub for Hoo, but thought I should make sure nobody objected to me subbing for a second nation in the same game.

DakaSha July 30th, 2009 06:38 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
hmm its not just for me to decide but i do think thats kind of a nono :P

Alpine Joe July 30th, 2009 07:24 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Ideally this wouldn't happen, but the need for subs is too great and I would prefer the position be subbed. I have done this before, and as long as the sub is honorable it shouldn't be an issue.

Tir na n'Og is in need of air gems, will offer any combination of fire,nature,water,astral and while we prefer keeping them, earth gems. Items of export are also offered, for now being only const-4, soon to be 6. For those interested, PM me.

Firewalker July 31st, 2009 08:17 AM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
You guys know how to pour it on ... Okay I'll try and get it all sorted this weekend.

Sambo July 31st, 2009 10:20 AM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
Baalz subbed for me earlier; I'm cool if he subs for Hoo. A Marverni - Lanka war is unlikely in the next few turns.

TwoBits July 31st, 2009 11:55 AM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
I think we can all agree Baalz is pretty respectable :)

Hey, I'm wondering, cause I never checked before, now that Ermor is gone, when did they go AI?

I'm pretty amazed we went this long before the first nation fell, and I'm happy to see that people are, maybe, gaming it out until nearly the bitter end (I mean, Agartha has been down to nothing for a long time now, but is still sending in turns - thanks for sticking it out, the Vanishag! Keep those Frost Giants at bay! - hey, not that I have anything against Frost Giants ;) ).

thejeff July 31st, 2009 12:30 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
3-4 turns ago. And he staled a couple turns before that. It just took a couple turns to break through all the castle walls.

Well, that's not so great then :cold: More props to the Vanishag then, for gaming it out for the rest of us! :up:

thejeff July 31st, 2009 01:53 PM

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 
In fairness to OoohSnap, he attacked Abysia and got totally slaughtered. A couple armies got crushed without really scratching Abysia's forces. He stuck it out a couple of turns, but then I decided to grab a piece before Abysia took it all.
I really don't think the AI did much worse by then.

[OOC:] Thanks! I expect to get stormed this turn, so it's very likely that I'll soon be gone... :wave:

It's not hard, playing when you only control one territory, and I have an affinity for last stands anyway...

Given that you are at war with Marverni, I would think you'd get a veto, but do you think it would make much difference that Baalz had sub'd for Lanka earlier?
