Ulm is AFK until tomorrow morning, so I extended it another day.

Austen · #**122** May 6th, 2012, 07:32 PM

I did an unsolicited 24 hour extension last night because Ulm and R'lyeh both had turn out. Ulm got his in, but no R'lyeh. I'll give until the timer runs out. He staled last turn, so may be done? I don' know.. he's never replied to any PMs, so I dunno..

tried PMing him, and no response. certainly looks like he's up to something. has some armies massed...

without him, is there even a game here? he was the wildcard. i'll do whatever you guys decide, don't mind continuing.

I sent him one message in game a couple of turns ago that he responded too. He never returns PM's (or at least hasn't for me) but does in game.

i meant an in game message, just typed the wrong thing.

hope he sticks.

this is a desperate message from the vice president of Ulm. jason, the pretender who never bothered to capitalize his name, has gone crazy. loco. coo coo. off the rails. his bats are in his belfrey. he is a few cards short of a full deck. his elevator doesn't reach the top floor.

he ain't right.

he is planning an all out offensive against the world. even those guys under the waves who don't move anymore(although we don't have many submarines)

anyway, commander loco is about to attack everyone in striking distance. we are disorganized and poor, but he still has a few guys kicking around.

don't say i didn't warn you. the good news is, he is an equal opportunity crazy, and is planning on attacking everyone.

I'm not sure I follow. Why is the player who hasn't really interacted with other nations for the last 20 turns the key to there being a game here?

If we pretend that the map was altered so that sea provinces could not be occupied and he was out of the game leaving just the three of us playing, how is there not still a game here? Is it over, and I'm the only one who doesn't realize it?

No. i would say we continue. To be honest I was hoping the utterdark would spur him to cause some trouble among the leaders but that appears to have backfired

in that case, on with the war!!!(and my insanity)

I'm sort of tempted to just close the game. It seems we have one player staling and another who is bored/disinterested and sort of just wants to smash pieces together at random rather than put a lot of effort into the game. This makes me not very excited about putting much effort into the game, and I'm not all that interested in just randomly slopping my pieces around.

I'm going to delay hosting so we can sort this out, but if Matty and I are the only ones wanting to continue, it might be time to just wrap the game.
