Oceania Please

and may I point out that the latest version of CBM includes worthy heroes so you don't need to use both.

A small oversight. Thank you.

Actually since R'lyeh is not taken, I will get that.

Hi. I'd like to take Arcoscephale.

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I'd be interested in joining this (not sure which nation I want yet) Could I also reserve a spot for a guy I know? I'm not sure if he has an account on this forum yet or not...Just put his name as Nimnio for now (there is a Nimnio registered to these forums but I'm not sure if that's him or not at this moment)

Revolution October 2nd, 2008 02:33 PM

I choose you Mictlan!

Gregstrom October 2nd, 2008 02:41 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Reservations, Chapter 1
1. And it came to pass that Gregstrom saw a MA game beginning on the Forums. 2. Seeing that game, he was reminded of his embarrassing defeat in Kingmaker, and he decided he would seek to symbollically avenge himself. 3. And thus it came to pass that he sought entry into Exterminatus as the Chosen Ones of Ashdod.

I am convinced to give Pangaea a whirl.

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I would like to try Man. What can I say, I am a sucker for the underdog. EA Yomi in one game. LA Patala in another. Now Man. At least I can console myself with the fact that my race wasn't uber powerfull when I got smeared.

How 'bout I take Eriu.

14/15 taken. one left.

Nimnio October 2nd, 2008 09:38 PM

Nimnio confirmed for C'tis.

Vanheim please.

Juffos October 3rd, 2008 05:34 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Could someone please choose Atlantis, because we have 47 sea provinces, and 15 provinces per player would be optimal.

vfb October 3rd, 2008 05:47 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Oops! I'm so sorry, I was confused by archaeolept's post, I thought he had included Nimnio in the 14/15 count, and I submitted my god to llamaserver.

Please delete it, I don't seem to be able to do that myself. Thanks!

Juffos October 3rd, 2008 05:59 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I had to delete the whole game. I will remake it as soon as we get Atlantis.

llamabeast October 3rd, 2008 07:06 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
You could have used the "Delete pretender" option.

llamabeast October 3rd, 2008 07:09 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Or if the game had already started, you could have used "Restart game" to set it back to the waiting for pretenders stage, and then deleted his pretender.

However, I realise that "restart game" is a particularly unclear choice of words. If anyone has any suggestions for a renaming I'd be interested. Perhaps I should change it to "Un-start game".

The machakan nations looks for friendly relations with all nations who don't squish little spiders.

Be careful if you do, their big cousins might come pay you a visit ;)

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Very well, I will change to Atlantis.
Hmm, Ill get crushed soon probably but this is bound to happen anyway... :D

As this is my first MP would somebody be so nice to go through the steps required with me?

1.) Delete all created pretenders
2.) Create the one im going to use
3.) Email god to the server
4.) Wait till someone says game is up then play first turn
5.) Own everybody or die trying

This is PBEM, so you need to read llamaserver FAQ. Basically, you need to first download and enable Conceptual Balance Mod (CBM) 1.3, then design your pretender. It would help to delete other pretenders first so you do not get confused. After you create your pretender, you need to email that file to llamaserver. After game started, you will receive first turn's .trn file. Download it to your savegame/<gamename> folder and you can view your first turn. When finish your turn, email back to llamaserver.

That may seem long and difficult, so I will summarize it up for your, when you see those illthids, immediately sumbit your brain to save your soul. :)

Greetings to all of the Nations within the world. Let it be known far and wide that Oceania claims domination over the waves and all that lie beneath them. To those who respect our rightful claims to our natural territory know that you have a sound friend and ally in us.To those misguided fools who would seek to challenge us know that you are making a terrible enemy that will haunt you for the rest of your (short) lives. All hail the True God!

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Sorry about the delay but just could not find a build that works. I was thinking about switching to Bandar Log before I realize that we need 3 water nations. Anyway there it is, I am looking forward to a quick death.

I was second to last to submit. If you had asked, I miiiight have taken R'lyeh off of your hands. ;) Oh well. Just stay away from my trees, squiddy. :shock:

jimkehn October 6th, 2008 05:46 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Not one to complain, but I got a pretty crummy starting position. My capital is adjacent to only two other provinces, and everything around me is waste.

coobe October 6th, 2008 07:27 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
next to water, only 3 neighbour provs :( and that with ulm

Rytek October 6th, 2008 12:24 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Seems my start location is like Ulm. 2 water provinces, 3 land. And the land provinces are not adjacent to each other.

JimMorrison October 6th, 2008 02:49 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Well if we're restarting, we should do so. My start spot was better than those described, though still not so great, so I'm definitely in favor. :p

licker October 6th, 2008 03:23 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Short of someone making starting locations for everyone (or for 15players, whatever) a restart isn't going to solve anything other than shuffling whom winds up with a poor start.

my start was fine though, but I'm just saying we'll go through this again if we're not careful about how we do it.

Ferrosol October 6th, 2008 03:38 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
my start was fine and I do agree that all a restart would result in is shuffling who gets the bad starting spots and not actually change anything.

konming October 6th, 2008 04:54 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
My start is OK but if we do have a restart, we need someone to distribute the starting locations into starting zones.

majuva68 October 6th, 2008 06:06 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I prefer restart

Illuminated One October 6th, 2008 06:15 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Hmm, I'm fine with my position but if the majority wants to restart I#m fine with that too.

vfb October 6th, 2008 06:29 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
You could always use DireAussie's starting locations script, which guarantees a minimum number of neighbouring provinces in each starting spot:

Rytek October 6th, 2008 06:34 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Please no restart. Although my positions stinks, I will overcome.
We had 3 restarts in another game. The first 2 starts I had stellar starting position as Yomi. But so many people cried that he restarted it twice. Well, of course on the third go around my position was bad with 2 neighbors 3 spaces away. I do not want to do that to anyone else in this game. Keep it the way it is please.

konming October 6th, 2008 07:01 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I know the game you talked about. However, the problem you encountered in Madwar was due to a bug in Llamaserver's program. The balanced starting position (or for that matter, the slightly modified map) was not actually used though it showed otherwise in the webpage.

Anyway, I am OK with either options.

Crust October 7th, 2008 02:39 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I vote no restart.

Gregstrom October 7th, 2008 10:08 AM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
I only have 3 land neighbours too, but I think I can live with it.

Revolution October 7th, 2008 06:32 PM

Re: Exterminatus - And the world will burn!
 
Lets rock and roll, I imagine that the majority of us have 3 or less neighbors to their home province (and I have not heard anyone say they have the dreaded 1 neighbor) ...It's just part of playing a map that does not have predetermined starts or nostart provinces.

Good luck everyone!
