Well no one will look at this page shortly. In the meantime the best way to fill up the thread is with role-playing stuff from your pretender. That's always good fun.

Re: FreshMeat - EA Newbie - (WAIT FOR HOSTING->UPL
 

Well.....for better or for worse I will post my 2 cents worth.

I have NO CLUE what one half the stuff your talking about.

What I DO know is this is supposed to ne a Newbie game.

So guys like me can get our feat wet, noses bloodied, and see why all those neat things I did in SP....just won't work.

The guy set up the game the way he wanted it...we joined it, lets live with it and get it under way.

If he wants to change to a water nation thats ok with me.

If someone wants his old nation...thats ok with me.

If someone here is NOT a new guy....Thats NOT ok with me.

I won't last long anyway but I DO want to play with other guys that more or less are the same level.

If someone just wants to thrash everyone so they can get points then to me thats kind of like having the Yankees playing a little league team. They will win but who cares.

Lets lock and load so I can do my Marverni Kama-kazi and GOOD LUCK to ALL!!!!!!!

Llamabeast, I sent my pretender file earlier today, and it's still not showing up there.

I recall this happened in the other game I was in.

Any suggestions as to what I should do?

Re: FreshMeat - EA Newbie - (WAIT FOR HOSTING->UPL
 

I couldn't agree more with you GrudgeBringer,
Even I've lost track of to everything said and tend to follow up all the posts.
And yes I also agree with you effeDom it is a very hard map to play with a water nation.

Here's an old thread about finding Dom3 files on Vista:

The second response is the useful one.

Darkstone - curious - maybe PM me with what you did. Also just try e-mailing again, and cc me (llamabeast[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net) in.

Re: FreshMeat - EA Newbie - (WAIT FOR HOSTING->UPL
 

My thanks to you all. i got my pretender in. Bwaha

Re: FreshMeat - EA Newbie - (WAIT FOR HOSTING->UPL
 

i gave darkstone until tomorrow to submit his pretender, otherwise we start without him.

and the issue with reno is over with i hope we can drop it completely off the edge. unfortunately even after i PM him nicely and even invite him to play next game wherever i happen to do that he just blames me for more rubbish and yells at me. oh well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif i think it would be nice if he could join someones game though. active player and seems interested in all the inner working stuff but, well thats all ill say http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif he probly call more me names even for this much eheh http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif))

llama are you getting my PMs by the way? i didnt see a reply from the PM i sent you a day or two ago about setting up the game etc. also lowering player count, if possible.

will the game only start when it hits 13 players now??

Re: FreshMeat - EA Newbie - (WAIT FOR HOSTING->UPL
 

Alright, I've sent it again. Hopefully this will work, and if it doesn't, not sure what to do, don't want to hold up everyone else.

I'll resign from the game if it can't be resolved by tomorrow. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
