the final hour arose, and with it sleeping Urizen
he stood up only to survey the slaughter
and then, satisfied, exhaled in a sigh
his chest caved in, and with it, the dome of the sky
and that was the end of the Pale Ones

Well, that's it for me. Well played, Majuva68, and good game, everyone. I finally got my licks in at the end, so it was well worth the wait.:evil:

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I'm going to be away again this weekend. Sailing and hiking in Maine, so no Internet within reach.
Leaving Thursday morning and getting back sometime Monday. I'll get the current turn in tonight, but will need the next one delayed.

Thanks

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Thanks for sticking it out to the end, Vanishag!

Need an extension
 

Something just came up and I will be leaving town without computer access, will be back tomorrow (Thursday), late evening. Could I request a hold in processing the next turn until I make my move, I will do it the first thing when I get back.

Re: Need an extension
 

Sorry I meant a delay in the CURRENT turn.

Re: Need an extension
 

The current isn't due until Thursday night (CST) as it is. I'll add 12 hours to be safe. It looks as though we'll be delayed thereafter for Jeff until Monday night.

In other news, Kailasa is done for. However, I will continue to admin the game unless someone has a desire to take over the admin of the game after I'm eliminated. Sometime soon I'm going to try and get another game started up, this time a smaller one.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Majuva68 pm'ed me about subbing for him while he's gone. I've decided I'm willing, <i>if</i> everyone else is OK with this (see Firewalker's "Niefelheim sub needed" thread for a few details).

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Here's my thoughts on this (as posted already in the 'sub' request thread):

I had a scout watching the whole thing, for many turns - the Vanishag fought hard and honorably, to the bitter end. While it seems a bit odd to have a (now) former player sub, especially for the guy who beat him, I think the Vanishag can be trusted to play fair while majuva68 is absent. Especially considering how hard it is to get a reliable sub for most games, I have no problem with this.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Baalz will be sub'ing for Hoo (Marverni) from Aug 8-15 and I am fine with Vanishag sub'ing for Niefelheim if all his neighbors/opponents are fine with it.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

If majuva has asked Vanishag then clearly he thinks him honorable and skilled. He probably also understands the Nifleheim position better than other subs would. :) I have no problem with it.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

The Celestial Masters welcomes the Vanishag, steward of Niefelhelm.

We would also like to take this opportunity to wish Lord Majuva a safe and happy voyage. Celibacy doesn't necessarily mean that we old men don't know the importance of keeping the Queen happy!






oooc:
actually i have no idea if celestial masters have conjugal relations or not :D

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Tomorrow I`ll travel to egypt.See you 27 of August.Thanks all:).Firewalker send next turn to vanishag.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

just to let you know, if the game is delayed again, more than 6 hours, i'll probably miss my turn. I got a flight 10th of august and will be without net connection until 11 aug midnight. There's also a vacation plan under development, so I may be in need of a temporary sub for a week or two. It's still not for certain, I'll make sure to inform the host.

Firewalker if you will have to delay the game, PM me and we'll see if we can work out the delay together...

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

This is the end of the game for Sauromatia. We've held back Vanheim for over a dozen turns now, but our capital is now under siege and there are no more troops to break it. I blame myself for the defeat. I was not sufficiently focused on research in the early game. Nor did I shift my strategy towards Hydras fast enough for it to still make a difference. Live and learn. Good luck to all, though especially to the heirs of my gem fortune.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

As it is, the turn will host Sunday night (US time). Jeff is gone until Monday, so the game will need to be delayed. Since you'll be gone Monday, we'll just delay the game until Tuesday night. Let me know if that won't be enough time.

As soon as you know you'll need a sub, please start a thread or recruit someone you know for the job if you can.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Uh oh. Hoo left me fairly detailed instructions on what to do with Marverni for him....but forgot to mention that there's a password on the nation. So unless he checks his forum messages while he's out of town unfortunately it looks like Marverni will be staling for the next few turns.

Request for game delay or sub starting August 12
 

I am going to Gen Con for the first time and will not be available from August 12 to August 16. I am playing Acro. I don't want to delay the entire game just because of my not being available, but it does sound as if others may also not be available for some of that time. If a delay is not possible, I am wondering if someone would be willing to sub for my position, just play defensively, and I would ask forbearance from my neighbors.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

:doh:

I guess we'll have to delay the game then and hope he does sometime this week.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Need a very small extension of maybe 2 to 3 hours. mostly because i thought the game was going to be extended :P

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Ok I as I mentioned previously I am going to Gen Con and won't be able to make a move until I get back Sunday night. I can make this move but not the next. If the game cannot be delayed, can someone do the turn for me (I am Acro)?

All I would ask is to play defensively and reinforce the borders and build troops in the capital.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Well, unless Hoo pops up and gives Baalz his password, the game will end up delayed until this weekend. I'm going to set the game to host on Monday.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I did too and then noticed Marverni has gotten his turn in, so I let it host. Now we'll be delayed until we hear something from hoo.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

It seems everyone has forgotten this game.
With 4-5 extra days, we're down to 2 hours left and 3 left to play.

Though Sauromatia is one of them and he posted a GBCW earlier so he probably should just be set AI.

Gone Sat. & Sun.
 

Hey, everyone. I'm going out of town this weekend and will not have Internet access Saturday or Sunday. I should be able to get in any turns that are ready on Friday (Aug. 21st), but if it's not in by 22:00 GMT, it's not coming. After that, Majuva68 should be back (I think he returns on the 68th).

It's been fun getting to play the nation that ousted me, even with the slow turn pace.:evil:

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Tir na n'Og is looking for air gems again, offering astral gems or magic items.. PM me if interested.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

nah i havnt forgotten the game... real life has just been taking its toll heh.

im going to try to get the turn in on time. i get off an hour before hosting and havnt even looked at the turn yet ...which is a stall turn :(

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

You've got 7 hours now. :)

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

heh thanks.. doing turn now :P

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Vanheim (Stretch) pmed me that he was on vacation and only returning on Monday - he didn't say but I think he might need an extension.

Niefelhelm will also be leaderless until majuva68 gets back on 28th as vanishag is on holiday too.

Also didn't Arco mention he would be away?

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I might manage to send my turn in time,but just to be on the safe side i'd like to ask a 4 hour extension,please.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Sorry guys, I blew it. Should have extended that last deadline a day but work and low sleep levels conspired against me. I'd consider doing a rollback in case if there aren't any objections.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

against extensions

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I'm back now, and will continue as Niefelheim until Majuva returns... I had my wires crossed about when he was getting back.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I'm good... did turn 38 while in the air somewhere between Nashville and Los Angeles (I think it was while I was over Colorado), and turn 39 while being driven up to Oakland. I get back to Jersey around 0600 GMT on Wednesday, so as long as the deadline for that turn is 10 GMT or later on Wednesday I will be good (will do turn 40 on my way back across the country).

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Why? The game hasn't hosted yet - not for another 10 hours.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Good battle mictlan...

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Yes orb lightning is quite effective......and the sidhe warriors caught me off guard.

However I don't think time is on your side in this one, as you are running out of meat shields.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Rollback??

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Everyone but Yomi and Arcoscephale had their turn, and Yomi is pretty much vanquished...don't know about Arco?

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Yeah, what the hell is with the rollback? I think that Yomi's single remaining province is under siege by Amonchakad, and I don't see why we'd have a rollback if just arco staled. Why would we roll back?!

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I'm willing to roll with it, but I don't see why. Did someone have a delay request that wasn't honored?

Weren't the Yomi & Arco stales from the last turn? With the rollback the staling data from the turn that got rolled back disappeared from llamaserver.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

What the...someone actually ALREADY rolled back. Why did that happen??
Did we have many stales or something? And anyway...shouldn't we at least talk of that before doing it?


EDIT: Just to clarify,I thought that people were asking about rollbacking, not warning that a rollbacking already happened. I seriously hope we get an explanation for this.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

wow call me a crybaby but im seriously considering quitting if we seriously rolled back. this was my FIRST succesful turn during both my wars.

Just rollong back without any consent is very lame. esp after saying if there are no objections and getting one...

not only did i have a decent turn for once but i have no urge whatsoever to play a damn micromanagment turn over again. i already had probelms getting those turns in

edit: yep rolled back. awesome job :rolleyes:
Im prob out.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I still have my turn file. I have no problem resubmitting it with no changes, if my opponents and neighbours agree to do the same... though I would also prefer a rollback of the rollback (if possible).

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Ugh this rollback is going to be a nightmare. Like others, i don't have the same .trn file saved (i routinely delete mine). And i've been fighting several different wars and making sure I make the same moves in all of them.....impossible.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

I think that a rollback of the rollback is not possible...the best we can do is just all agree to resubmit the same turn,i suppose=/

But I'd really like to hear from the admin.

Re: Mists of Time: Early Era Game [full]
 

Won't some turn files still be in people's sent mail? so just resend that file right? For people in battles, you'll be able to tell who changes things around on you.

I don't think firewalker is able to respond right now with his work/lack of sleep thing.
