We probably should.

Rather not use any mods, personally.

It's not possible on mosehansen, at this point.

Alrighty we got 6. I will fire it up as soon as Thufir uploads his pretender.

msew October 4th, 2004 09:41 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Hopefully Mose will allow mods soon. The pretender mod is pretty nice. Lots of people choosing different pretenders and new combinations of paths.

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
I really, really hate to do this to everyone, but I hosed my pretender (I had a mod enabled as I created my pretender). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

Is there any chance Tyrant, that you could recreate the game and allow me to reupload? I know - I hate it when others do it to me, but I've got to ask anyhow.

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 

Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious, Tyrant, but you do know you need to create a new game on mosehansen, from scratch right? I can see our initial game is stopped, but it looks like no new game has been created. While we're in this state, it's possbible for someone else to steal our slot, so it'd be good to get the new game created asap.

Tyrant October 5th, 2004 03:59 AM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
It wasn't obvious, i never started a game before. I set it to resart, and we seem to have lost our spot. :<

Tyrant October 5th, 2004 04:07 AM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Hmm...I checked and there have been no games added since i did that, and yet it now says there is no room at the inn. I do not see any way to delete the game either. I'm stumped.

Any suggestions?

Dammit! I know the slot was open for a couple of hours there - maybe I should've just created a stub game until we got this cleared up. Someone must've started a game that had been stopped (my best guess is Throne of Heavens).

First off, I'll post a message in the Throne of Heaven's thread, asking what their status is, and to see if they will be stopped soon (again). If they really do intend to run, then I suggest we send a PM asking Esben if we can get a new game open despite the limit.

Thufir October 5th, 2004 03:08 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
I've heard back from Esben, there's nothing he can do to help us.

I did post in the Throne of Heavens thread, but haven't heard any response yet. I imagine they will be stopping their game soon.

Tyrant October 5th, 2004 03:14 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Bummer. Thanks for checking that out Thufir. I saw checked the Throne thread, and it does sound like that game is disintigrating. I guess we will just go into standby mode until the situation resolves.

Sorry everyone. Not sure if there was anything i could have done anyway, but it was my first time setting up a game on Mosehansen and i may have missed a trick.

Well, this is clearly my bad. But for future reference, here's how it works: if some dufus (now who's the dufus in our case? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif) screws up his upload, or for some other very compelling reason the game owner decides that the game must be re-initialized (and I specifically do *not* mean restarted in the sense of using the restart command on mosehansen), then the game owner can stop the game and immediately recreate a new game on mosehansen, with the same settings as the original.

This means that everyone must reupload their pretenders to the new game, and it's certainly a PITA for all involved. That said, I have done it for others in games that I own. (At least I can say this is the first time that I'm the dufus!)

Ok so is the final word that we are out of a game ?
Can we find someone else to host ? (yeah, I don't know who, I am just anxious to play this one http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif )

Me too! Personally, I'd be fine w/ playing on any host that's available. Looking at the Throne of Heaven's thread, it's very hard to imagine that that game will continue on, but I don't know how long it will take them to figure that out.

Thufir October 6th, 2004 11:26 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Tyrant, if you're around, I've saved a slot for you, and sent you a PM w/ the details. Whenever you're ready we can do the handoff, and get this game off the ground again.

Tyrant October 7th, 2004 04:37 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Sent you a PM, but thought i'd post here as well. I'll be around alot today (10/7) just let me know when.

I'm not seeing your PM, but right now it's 1pm, Pacific time. How bout I stop my game (and release your slot) at 1:30pm?

Thufir October 7th, 2004 05:38 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
Still haven't seen a PM from you, or got a confirmation on the time - I'm shooting for 3PM Pacific time now. Or, if you post here, you can just tell me to do it immediately (I'll be checking back frequently for the next hr or two).

Tyrant October 7th, 2004 06:06 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
We are back and ready to go as soon as everyone reloads their gods.

Thanks Thufir.

New game is Karan_Saga_2

Least I could do, considering I fubared things in the first place!

One other thing you might want to do, is to disable client start on your game options, and only re-enable it when you are sure the game is ready to go (and then of course start the game yourself). It's just a nicety, but I have seen a player accidentaly start a game before.

Personally, I think having a water power on a Karan map game is a good thing, even if we go to 7 players. Is Vigabrand still around - looks like he's the only one who hasn't re-uploaded.

Tyrant October 8th, 2004 02:36 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map
 
It's ok with me. Unless somebody objects go ahead and upload your god. We'll give Viga another day and if he doesn't show we will launch with odd_enuf and the remaining original 5.

Sound off if you object.

Tyrant October 8th, 2004 02:54 PM

I emailed and PMed Viga.

Abysia is anon, that is you right Kel?

vigabrand October 8th, 2004 03:14 PM

Hey all, I'll upload as soon as I get home from work. ETA 6:00 EST.

Oops, am I anon on Mose ? Probably just forgot to click the box this time, yah that's me !

And I don't mind at all if we add Atlantis.

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map
 
Man - we sure cranked through some turns this weekend! It's great http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

So, looking at the graphs one wonders if perhaps there is some tiff between Machaka and Abysia. Anyone care to tell the tale?

anatoli11 October 19th, 2004 11:23 PM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map -open
 
I have to go away at short notice Early Wednesday until Friday afternoon - I am hoping you can hold the game until then.

Sorry, Thanks

Kel October 21st, 2004 09:27 AM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map
 
Anatoli didn't post in this thread but he posted in another thread that he had to go on a short trip until Friday.

I am all for waiting for him if the other players agree and someone reads this in time.

- Kel

Tyrant October 21st, 2004 02:37 PM

Appologies
 
Very sorry Anatoli, i have not been checking the board lately. Game is now at 3 day host so you don't miss a second turn. I will make sure i check here daily from now on.

Tahnks for the heads up Thufir.

Tyrant October 22nd, 2004 08:54 PM

Schedule
 
I will put the game back to 24/QH tomarrow unless someone objects before then.

vigabrand October 27th, 2004 01:45 AM

Re: MP Game - 6 player Karan Map
 
Hey all, I'm going to be out of town from Wed to Sun. Looks like I'll be staling. Try not to take advantage of me too much. I should be able to get a turn in on Wed.
