Karan Game (in progress)
 

This is a thread for discussion about said game.

The first question I have is 'why hasn't there been a turn for several days?'

Abysia? Caelum?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I took my turn. I've been taking them regularly except for yesterday, too...so I'm not sure what the answer to your question is.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I haven't exactly kept to the schedule. Since it's the early part of the game and I don't want someone to lose because of a stale turn. So I've always been the Last one to take my turn (on average) in order to force host. I'm also looking for any inconsistancies where the game suddenly fubars, or goes awry or anything. I can change it to quickhost with a timer if anyone would like to, but I always put it to quickhost on the weekends and turn it off 12 hours before a scheduled hosting.

I'm open to any opinions/suggestions/rants.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Ok guys, no big deal on the turns this week.

I don't want us to slide with this though - easy way to lose interest. So I've talked to Zen about force-hosting if people don't get their turns in.

If there's a special circumstance e-mail Zen or me and we'll be flexible, but in general lets keep this game rolling.

...and may the best god win.

TURN 22

TURN 23

If people would like I will post here when the turn is hosted (if I am awake, which I should be as I like to keep track of the turns).

If not I can send out Emails (but they become very cluttered).

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

for me, posting here is fine

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

It's hosting time and Caelum still has not taken their turn. At current I am waiting until Patrik gives me the go ahead for a force on it.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I also couldn't connect this morning.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I sent a message to fahdiz, since the server now is working. Let's force host tonight, come what may.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Sorry, ran into some stuff I had to take care of Last night. I have a pretty short window at night with which I can take turns. I apologize.

Knowing that I am lame http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif , I tried to log in this morning and take my turn, but I couldn't get into the server. Is it down?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Turn 25

Got all angry because of the post Caelum? Apologize about your Mammoths.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Heh. I don't get angry about games. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif I had nowhere else to go.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Hey Zen - what's up? Abysia is the only nation yet to play - it has been so for 24 hours. Give your people orders!

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I was away over the weekend and just barely got back home. So my people now have the orders they are supposed to. Feel the wrath of wrath I say!

Turn 26

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Oh, crap.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Booyah

Turn 27

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Turn 29

The server will be changing IP's and I will be having a replacement while I am away (After Saturday) the game is on quickhost lets see how many turns we can play. Also Patrik if you could reply to my Email/Ingame message so I can leave. My surrogate will be versed in my diplomacy and hopefully the Daemon Tribune will stay strong in my absence.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Zen - i have replied to your message in-game. If you need me to e-mail you, let me know. Otherwise have a great trip (wherever you're going).

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Hello everyone. I'll be running the server while Zen is away. The new IP address is:
68.148.43.136
port: 11111


Currently only Arcoscephale and C'Tis haven't played their turns.
Let me know if it's not working.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Graeme, will you be playing for Zen's Abysia?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Yes, I am playing Zen's Abysia, and I will make sure to honour all the alliances and so forth.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Thats good! Did he tell you about the 80 Fire gems I lent him and he would pay me back next turn?? lol just kidding

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Graeme, are we upgrading the game to 2.11?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Yes yes we must upgrade!!! So many fixes that I have been waiting for and I would like to start a SP game to try them out.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I'll put in my "yes" vote as well.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Let's upgrade after hosting on friday night/saturday morning. That way people will have all weekend (if they need it) to download and install the patch, and if there are any serious problems with the patch they have a couple of days to come out.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Let me know when you want to upgrade then. For now, I'll leave it as a 2.08 server.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Is the server up? I couldn't connect for the past hour or two.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

The server should be up now at
IP:68.148.43.237
port:11111

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Unfortunately I arrived home Last night to find that my home computer is on the fritz. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif I hope to have it fixed by the weekend, but until then I won't be able to take my turn.

Do you want to make me AI controlled so you don't have to wait?

Sorry. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

keep us updated - if it's only a couple of days I think we should wait. If it's a week or more that might be a different story.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Dear Lord...it better not be a week.

I'm a computer tech so luckily I have a lot of tools/knowledge at my disposal. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

The server is down. Has it changed again?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

So far we haven't even reached a new turn that fahdiz hasn't played. What happened to Ulm?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

The server should still be at the address and port listed below. Are people able to access it at all, or do I need to see about fixing something else?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">i can connect ok as of a little while ago.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I haven't been able to connect to the server since yesterday.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I think the person playing Ulm has lost what the new IP address is. Try the above address.

I had entered the IP address incorrectly. Can connect now.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Is it all right to update the server now? Someone has sent a turn done with 2.11, so I either have to update it or wait.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

Yes - let's go ahead and update to 2.11

however, I suggest backing up the turn, just in case something goes wrong.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

OK I updated. Is the server IP address the same? I can not get on the Last one we were using?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

The server is now back up as a 2.11 server, I've backed up the old files, and it should now be at:
68.148.43.237
port 11111

Let me know if there were any problems.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I got my computer back up and running today, so I've gone ahead and updated to 2.11 and I'll be taking my turn tonight. Thanks for your patience, guys.

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I did have one network error, after I'd already finished my turn, but I tried logging in a couple more times and didn't get the error again.

Personally I think your server is just laughing at me for the rented-mule beating which I'm currently receiving. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Note to self: don't attack first anymore. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

anyone else having problems connecting?

Re: Karan Game (in progress)
 

I've rebooted now in case that might have been causing the problem. Server IP and port should still be the same.

Currently, only C'Tis hasn't played their turn.
