MP: Great Forum, game running

[Num]

It is probably better to not play and send anything before being sure we could continue safely. So if a stale shall happen, that will be for everybody. That will be balanced I guess.

Right now, the game has just disappeared. Please do not play, we must avoid a rollback.

For public diplomacy, well, you know the rule.

I was NOT private messaged. I was referring to the private message nrasch sent to the spiders (in which he even acknowledged that he was not supposed to be sending a PM). I have not been here long, but the first thing that I read was no PMing or chatting, all communication handled in the thread.

The other thing I was told was my predecessor and join an alliance specifically countering the spider people. I stated earlier that I felt pulling out of that alliance was an act of war, and thus ended the NAP with the monkey folk.

@Finalgenesis - Whoah! I have NOT been PM'ing anyone but Lhassa ONE time. I DID NOT PM Ragnoff (who had better set the record straight). Also, I am NOT throwing a fit.... if you think I cheated then honor demands I be willing to step down gracefully.

Finalgenesis I think you took the tone of my last message completely wrong.

This is text in a forum right? You can't see my body language and so forth, and it is easy to attribute a tone to some one's words that doesn't exist.

In this case I not throwing a fit, being rude or anything else. I'm offering to quit if you think I was cheating by sending one--and only one--PM to Lahassa stating I felt bad for him being ganged up on.


Ragnoff, I need you to step forward and confirm that I didn't send you or anyone else you know of a private PM. Also, to clear my name, I would ask that if anyone on this board has been PM'ed by me to step forwards and post it here. I want everyone to see that no such thing has occurred.

And in other news....

What if anything do we need to do about Llama server barfing?

I haven't logged into the admin part of the game yet, as I don't want to mess anything up.

I the post above this I already said you had NOT PMed me. I am sorry if I gave any other impression.

I used the word cheating because your PM to Lahassa starts with:

Lihaasa:

So I'm cheating and sending you a private message.

I felt backing out of the alliance as you did, especially by PM, was TREACHEROUS! I am not questioning your honor as a player, but your action in this game. I am the target that tactically, once I was engaged with Lahassa and you were building forces on the sideline, you should attack! I also agree with Num that if your resources are not fighting the spiders we will lose (we are losing anyway, that will make it certain) and your lands likely hold the most S gems we need to dispell GoH. As you decided not to stick with the alliance and commit your resources willingly, I am trying to acquire those resources.

Your statement that you are going to send everything to Lahassa should you lose suggests that I was correct in my assumptions about your intentions. Sending everything to the game leader...

[Num]

The private message is no big deal.

I think we should wait until the server has recovered safely, and once this done (if done oneday...), you should set up two days for playing, like every other turn.

Ah I seem to have misread sincerity with something else.

I'd agree pming once is no big deal under the circumstances (just don't do i... get caught again), it's what I incorrectly perceived to be a bad attitude that made me actually jump in the fray.

[BvG]

whoops sorry for the escalation on the pm stuff...

anyway, will we rewind the "lost" turn, or not (whenever it arrives...)

[Num]

It looks like it is ok. For everybody I hope ?...

[nrasch]

@Finalgenesis & Ragnoff: I wanted to say no hard feelings on my side whatsoever. I can understand how my message(s) could have been taken as being rude etc. Frankly I'm having a great time in this game, and I'm glad to have a chance to play with everyone.

Thanks!
