Abysia,please.
THX~~

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup !
 

Ahem... 16 land, 8 players in your lists and 5 signups, which makes it 1,3 provinces per player (and 3 water provinces)...
Forget it, I'm out of this madness. :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup !
 

Kuritza, those are the amount of players targeted for the map, not the number of provinces :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

I'd like to join as Midgard

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

Welcome guys !
The players list has been updated.

:lol
Yep ! Kuritza, you're still registered of course. :smirk:
Asia Twist is one of the splendid maps of PashaDawg :

It doesn't seem to be currently registered on the llamaserver, I'll try to check this out asap.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

Err, nevermind, on second thought maybe this game is too big a time comitment after so long without playing. Sorry, it seems I cannot edit the previous post.

Have fun.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

I'd like to take Marignon

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

sounds interesting, ULM for me plz

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

Ulm's already taken, noz ;) - unless you're even Cyberpioupiou :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

Vive la France!

I am in as Atlantis

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup ! (N- 3)
 

Hi.

nozshand, if you still want to play with Ulm, say it again and I'll switch to Marignon.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Ok, the list in page 1 has been updated.

@Radioheart : the game has been filled, sorry... I register you as a potential player if one of the registered ones vanishes in the Void. Keep an eye at the thread, anyway I'll PM you if a place becomes vacant before we start.

@Cyberpioupiou : Marignon is played by Quitti.

@all : please PM me your email @ddress, I'll build a mailing list and I'll send it to all players when the game starts.

I'll post here as soon as the game will be ready for your pretenders on llamaserver. Don't forget that we are llamahosted : no password on your files please (I want to be able to give any nation to a sub if a player stales 3+ times in a row :smirk:)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Oops... my bad, sorry.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Only one sea nation?
I dont think it's a good idea.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

I'm afaid we don't have much choice here : R'lyeh is the only LA aquatic nation. But many of the other nations have access to amphibian troops and/or summons
:capt:

Anyway, if you know some moded LA aquatic nations compatible with the current Dom version, we can try to advertise in their favour in hope 1 or 2 more players. I confess I don't know much about moded nations : there are soooo many vanilla nations that I'll never have time to try them all... :hurt:

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Haha,I'm sorry.
I forgot the atlantis had been land to the earth in LA.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Late R'lyeh isn't quite the unstoppable juggernaut it once was because of patch changes, though having the land/watermass of three players is a huge advantage.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Indeed. I guess we, humble players, will have to fight fiercely against the Void Things, not even speaking of the Ermorian threat. :hurt:

Note : the Asia Twist map is not registered on the llamaserver - I thought it aw. And I'm unable to download it, the server sends me an error 500. I noticed llama about thais but he may be busy at the moment and I've got no asnswer.

Would you guys mind if we switch to another map ?
Alexandria maybe, or another one at your choice if you have ideas. As long as the map is a wraparound, I am open to suggestions.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

I am in another game which use asia twist as the map at present.
When I first time down the map,there is also something wrong with it.
I use Firefox(not IE) and TOR(a proxy software) to solve it.And i down the map file with no probelm.You may try it.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

I dont see this game on Llamaserver. Where (and/or when) should I upload my pretender, hmm?

As for Rlyeh... we'll see if patches changed anything for real. I kinda frown each time I see this Lovecraftian horror - it screws its neighbours worse than Ermor.
P.S.
This is a double-edged thingy, to think of it. Without Rlyeh Atlantis may grow fat too easily. :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

True, although Atlantis in not the only nation having a good access to water, it has strong arguments to use in this direction :D

I've just created the game with - temporarily - Alexander map.
The link is here :
LesPonponsFlingueurs

You can upload your pretenders now.
llamabeast will look at the error I had when downloading & he will try to solve it and to enable us to use AsiaTwist as planned.

I've set up the game with "no automatic start" in order to avoid stales with players unable to play during Christsmas Holydays. But if we have all the pretenders, the game will start ASAP & I'll set up confortable delays during the said holidays.
From January 2009 to turn 25-30, the turn delay will be set up to 2 days. If some of you need more time, please MP me & I'll set up deadlines accordingly (as long as requests do not cause excessive delays...)

@mcfish : thanks for the tip but I'm trying to upload AsiaTwist on the llamserver library, not to dowload it on my computer. Sorry for the miswording ^^
(& of course, I'm using Firefox - or Opera. ;))

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

I wouldnt call Patala a nation with 'strong access to water' - nagas are pathetic fighters. So there's Atlantis and Mictlan to compete over the seas. I believe I didnt miss anything this time? :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

10 pretenders uploaded so far, we still wait for the last 7 (amongst them... my own :o)

I'm going out of home for a few days (you know, the Xmas thing & so on...). I'll check the game this week-end when I'll be back in my starting province and i'll launch the turn 0 if we are complete.

I noticed that a pretender has been register for Chelms, is that you nozshand ?

Also, thanks to llama, the map has been updated & we will play on Asia Twist as expected !

Merry Winter Soltice/Christmas to you, guys, & see you on the TOO in a couple of days :p

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Chelms is belong to us. :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Ooops, of course, Chelms = Man ! My bad :o

Nozshand, could you plase confirm you are still with us and what is your nations's choice ?

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - Signup closed
 

Still not a single word from nozshand.
I'll contact the reserve players in order to find a sub for the vacant nation.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - uploading pretenders
 

Radioheart joins us as Jomon :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Wrong start : I messed the victory condition in the setup... You will receive a new Turn 1 very soon and you will have to re-send your order. Sorry for the invonvenience, guys.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

OK, not my mistake eventually. I'll post on the main forum to notify the bug. Please check your mail for the full details.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Another false start : a unknown player has uploaded a pretender for caelum, pushing Gath out of the game. Not very cool.
I'm going to see how we can correct this...

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

OK, game reverted to tha "waiting for pretenders" state. You don't have to actually reload your pretenders : I erased the prétender for Caelum and we're just waiting the missing one (Gath).

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Eh... guys, we had holydays here so I missed the first turn. Staled turn 1 is a bit too much of a handicap for me, so I'd like to ask you for a rollback, or perhaps a restart... otherwise, I'm out. Really sorry for this.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

3 stales this turn, and 2 stales in a row for Chelms.
Kuritza, are you still with us ?

Fellow competitors, don't forget to let me know of you need a delay or a sub in order to avoid stales.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

2 stales in a row for Jomon, looking for a (temporary ?) sub.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Hello everybody. I'm the new (temporary or perma) Jomonleader. Do I have any NAPs or wars going on, that I have to know of?

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Sub needed for Pythium. Somebody interested ?

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Would C'tis and Gath please soon capitulate so we can put this game to rest? It was a good game. Mictlan is a beast.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

I've just set myself (C'tis) to AI. Congratulations to Mictlan!
PS: you shoud post on cyberstratege'forum, I'm not sure that Gath's player is reading this forum.

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

Gath never gives up. :p

Okay, they do. Congratulations to Mictlan. :)

Re: [LA] Les Ponpons Flingueurs - running
 

OK then, end of the game.

Congrats to the winner and thanks to the other players for the fun !

Can I declare the game finished on the llamaserver ?
