Patricide port 8431 Gandalf\'s Server(R\'lyeh wins)
 
First of all, a very big thanks to Gandalf for providing and maintaining the server. You rock! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I'm now the first player as R'lyeh. The game is early age, and I assume all settings are standard. I don't know how many players are allowed, but hopefully the more the merrier.

However, I would like to set some conditions if allowed. Actually, only one that I would like to propose, and that is that this game be reserved for those who can send in turns more than once a day. I'm proposing at least 2 turns a day for at least the first 10 turns, and at least 1 turn per day from turn 11 and onwards.

Thanks and introduce yourselves as you sign up!

BTW I'm a newbie player, my first MP game is at turn 8.

One of my standard blitzes.
Max of 4 players (or less if someone hits start).
On a small randomly generated map of 50 provinces.
indepts=5
magicsites=65%
renaming=on
and a master password to handle people who drop out.

Its set for Quick Turns (hosting each time all players turn in a file) or 24 hours if someone is lagging.

Thanks for starting a thread on the game. PM or Email me at dom3minions.com if you need anything restarted or fixed.

Hullo, the game has started with 3 players. Good luck to my anonymous opponents.

Hi Lolo.
I'm one of the 3.. Still at the beginning of the learning curve so you do not have to worry about me... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/evil.gif
See you there

Heya Paul, hopefully, the third player is a beginner too =)

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
I just played my 2nd rounds. Hanging for Marverni.
Hope to do some turns during the w.e.

I think that the pace of the game depends also by the timezone of the players.. if it is not too different it's possible to play several turns per day. For example between me and you there are 7 hours !! If the 3rd player is in the US, the game cannot be very fast.
....and so I will have to crush you "slowly". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Maybe there should be different games for different timezones.

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Some people have hosted games and specified zone AND the active game hours. That tends to work better than time zone alone. For example, Im pacific time (California) but I dont always play well with other Californians since Im early to bed and early to rise.

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
hmm, seems that Marveni has been staling for a few turns now. It's just between Paul and me now.

Gandalf Parker March 15th, 2007 11:02 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
You started the thread so I consider it your game.
Do you want me to make Maverni AI or get a sub?

LoloMo March 15th, 2007 11:42 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
I'll leave it up to Paul if he wants to go one on one against me or find a sub. I'm ok with any choice. BTW, Marveni has only his capital, he hasn't taken any other province, and I think his pretender has died once. All of the lands surrounding Marveni are still independent as of this turn up to two marches away. I have 3 provinces and Paul probably has the about the same.

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Even if we are in an early stage of the game, if we find a replacement he would be in an uneven position (just one province, pret.died, etc..) which it doesn't seem to be fair.
If you don't mind, I would prefer to switch Maverni to AI and continue the game (duel) with Lolo... but please Gandalf, you call the tune !.. I will accept any decision (also to restart if you think that a game slot cannot be used only by 2 players)

LoloMo March 16th, 2007 10:37 AM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
I agree with turning Marveni AI if it's ok with Gandalf =)

Gandalf Parker March 16th, 2007 03:23 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Should be AI now. It didnt look like anything had been done at all. Maybe first turn but that was it.

Lolo,

Sorry for the message above, I pushed the wrong button.. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Lolo, I had a request. Next week I'll be out for a couple of days (27/28) and I'd like to know if we can ask to Gandalf to freeze the game (I don't know if it is possible..). I'm sorry to stop the "momentum" as things are now very funny; unfortunately I have to go http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
Let me know.

LoloMo March 22nd, 2007 09:11 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Yup, it is ok with me =)

Paul_the_Avenger March 23rd, 2007 04:06 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Gandalf,
sorry to bother, but I have a request.
As next week I'll be out for a couple of days I'd like to know if you can, in the meantime, "freeze" the game. Lolo gave his approval but I don't know if this is possible.
Thanks

Gandalf Parker March 26th, 2007 12:21 PM

Re: New Game at Gandalf\'s Server - Patricide port
 
Sorry for not noticing this. I just got a PM telling me to look for this thread.

as per request by PM:
the game has been changed to --hours 999 (41 days since I wasnt sure if any other setting might not set off a hosting)

Please PM me, usually the person who starts the game thread, when you want this changed back

On Turn 72, the world was finally united under the shining banner of R'lyeh! =) Good game Paul!
