Broke computer. Need 9 games subbed!
 
I destroyed my computer monitor. Accidentally, of course. That meteorite came out of NOWHERE. And it was shaped just like my butt!

Anyway, I need subs for *9* games! They are almost all interesting positions, and I'm winning or have a fighting chance for survival in all of them.

Please take over my poor pet nations :( Some of them are doing well, all of them are fun positions. :)

Here is the list:
MA Agartha: Beer (top scores in many-player game. destroying 2 nations without problems)
EA Pangaea: Blitzkrieg (first or second place)
MA Ermor: Andeanzorro (just turned the tide of a losign war -- strong)
MA Mictlan: Hieronica (fighting C'tis for survival)
Fomoria: Madwar (just started as Fomoria)
Secret: RAND (can't tell)
MA Abyssia: Standards (doing okay early game with abyssia)
MA mictlan: Veritas (tied for second)

Games with SUB
chrispedersen as Lanka: Freshmeat (tied for first, in war for supremacy)

I'm in 3 of your games - Madwar, Veritas & RAND (Subbing), but I can sub for 3 of the others. Are you planning on getting a new monitor soon, or is this gonna be a long term/perm sub?

the classic noob error - its not really possible, even as a student, to handle more than 4 games once they start getting on. Frankly, even that is unsupportable for me. 9 games is insane; even if his monitor hadn't broken (and it would cost pennies to find some old 17" crt), he would soon enough be in this exact same position anyways.

If it is temporary, i can also sub in one or two games.

sorry for my finger wagging there, anti ;)

it's tough finding so many subs - how many for long term, how many for short?

I responded seconds after his post privately, about how to repair/replace his monitor - and I would probably be willing to pick up lanka = ).

I'm not willing to sub. My own PC has suffered a catastrophic failure. But, if it is just a monitor problem Anti, you can indeed get a small monitor for next to nothing.

Could it be that 9 games have just overwhelmed you? No shame in that, all newbies make that mistake.

I think considering how well he's doing we can't really call anticipatient a newbie.

Maybe he just has a lot of free time.
