I will be probably going on holidays soon [19-30 September] and it may be impossible for me to find a sub for that 3 turns - description of the game and situation scares even the bravest players. So if I can't find one, I may really need to request a pause for the game [as we had one for Abysia earlier].

Well, I'm sure you're all eager to hear Tir's opinion so I'll say that I think you're at the stage of the game where you really want to make the decisions yourself. Even if you could find a sub I think it's better to wait so that you get to decide the fate of your nation.

Ah, how I wish to be a fly on the wall now. The Cripples are now carrying some pretty big sticks. This thing ain't Cripple Fight no more, perhaps more accurate term would be..

Mortal Cripple Combat?
Crippocalypse?
...??

Damn, I really need to think up a punchline before making the joke.

On other news, MA vanheim just won a game. This leaves us 10 nations without MP wins and 9 nations after this game has reached its thrilling conclusion. What can I say? The number of Cripples are going down by the minute.

I'd have absolutely no problem as either admin or player with the ~10 day delay for Zeldor. As like he says, we've already had one for Abysia, so only fair that Atlantis also be allowed a similar pause.

Plus I'm a very big fan of the point Valerius has made, in that players should have the right to decide the outcome of their own fate once the game goes past a certain stage. And not have to trust that a sub would keep things under control in that players absence. Which is even more imprtant a point if the nation in question is fighting for the win.

So unless anything changes, the game will be getting put on hold while Zeldor is away. Unless of course I can beat Atlantis and Abysia in the next two turns. Hhhhmmmm, let me see what I have available........

All stand ready for.... THE LAMEPIRE STRIKES BACK!

Okay, I know its already been said earlier in the thread, but I just had to say it again

I, of course agree completely with what Valerius / Calahan have already said and the game should be paused until Zeldor gets back, hopefully refreshed and ready to pit tart vs tart, seraph vs chayot etc...

Btw the only really annoying thing about those armageddons was it killed nearly all my scouts, so I will not even be able to watch all those titanic battles
