Archaean - New LA Game - Upload pretenders - Page 8

I'm a bit confused about this game. I just got back from holiday to find it "Waiting for pretenders", but a bit screwed up by a bug that reared its head while I was away. Anyway, I fixed the screwup, but accidentally started the game too. Sorry about that. You can always "restart" it (which returns it to the "Waiting for pretenders" state).

Oh, I see there's an Archaean2 as well. Interesting. Probably Archaean had been abandoned then. You may want to "Declare game finished" on it.

Okay, I killed the newly started but erroneous game "Archaean". Please continue about your business!

Thanks Llamabest! Was going to point out the bug to you but I saw that it was fixed.

On the topic of bugs - the status page for this game is a bit wacky right now - waiting for lots of different armies that aren't in the game (and of ages that aren't in this game either!). No hurry!

Umm...everyone, I've sent in my latest turn, for this and another game, and they haven't hosted. Not sure what's going on, but I may delay hosting if we approach the auto-host time.

Think it's time for me to call it quits on this game guys. With my pretender falling prey to lizards early on I was way behind anyway, but my turn just staled (the email was sent, but no biggie - like I say I was a long shot anyway) and it was a really crucial one. There's just no way back after losing three provinces when you only have like 8 anyway. Do let me know how the battle between out pretenders goes midgard.

Can I get a volunteer to take over the admin of the game? All you need to do is occasionally delay hosting if people need it. Post here or PM me and I'll send the password.

Well, it was fun while it lasted - good luck everyone! For the record it was also evidence of just how ridiculously easy it is to set up and run a game using llamaserver - I encourage others to do the same.

See you all in another game no doubt!

Ok guys... No volunteers yet. In my mind the admin thing can easily be a group exercise - if no one volunteers within a few days I'll just post the password here and that way anyone can take care of delaying hosting.

I'll take over if you can't find anyone.

Also, the forges of Bogarus are still open. Need something forged? We've got level 4 construction.

We're also looking for some items. Specifically rainbow armor and the +4 reinvig boots.

The Old Man King of Agartha, after witnessing his strategy's failings, has decided to step down from his throne. Well, figuratively. He couldn't step down from it now anyway, since it's currently occupied by the big, smelly fishie butts of Atlantis!

Woe to our mages. Woe to our umbrals. Woe to the sizzling hamsters we created as we tried to breed exploding mammoths. Woe to the chaff archers we used.

Woe.

Incidentally, The Old Man King has donned his cheerleader's outfit and is currently rooting for Caelum. Rah to the thunder mammoths! Rah to the eagle people!

Rah!
