All,

Rabe, leader of R'lyeh, has had a family emergency, per his post in the MP board.

Unfortunately, I didn't see his message until after CZ hosted.

I think it's appropriate to begin the planned Thanksgiving break a bit early, and have therefore set the game to host at 4:45 GMT on Dec 2nd. However, I will leave quickhost on for the next 18hrs, just in case everyone can get one last turn in, and will turn quickhost back on at 18:00 GMT on Dec 1st.

Cheers,
cleveland

Hmm, but as I see, Rabe is Jotun leader and his turn was in time.

And as for the break — why don't you just set the interval to 7 days and leave quickhost on?

Ah. I'm a bad host who doesn't check the roster before stating his assumptions. My mistake.

Because invariably someone won't be able to/won't want to play, and won't submit his turn until 1hr before the hosting deadline. Meanwhile, the rest of us will spend an entire week splitting our time between punching refresh on our inbox and publishing scathing diatribes on the boards about how inconsiderate that one guy is. Unnecessary drama, considering the delay is completely unavoidable, particularly with so many players. In my very humble opinion.

But.... I was already working up a rough draft of my diatribe with convenient blank spaces so as I could easily fill in the name of whomever aforementioned last minute one guy is.

DRAT IT ALL, MY WORK IS FOR NAUGHT!!!

Your welcome, previously-destined-to-be-filled-in-the-blanks guy. Enjoy your awkward Scotch with Uncle Creepy, guilt free.

Alright. Quickhost will be disabled in 3hrs. If you can't get your turn in before then, no big deal, I'll eat the criticism. To those in celebration of Thanksgiving (and now, more than ever, Black Friday), I wish you a happy holiday. To those who aren' t: on behalf of the US: sorry about that whole credit meltdown thing. Spend money, please. The only thing we have to fear is complete global economic meltdown itself.

See you Monday.

OK, the game is officially back online!

Quickhost is back on, and with only 1 nation left to submit, the game will host in around 12hrs.

Cheers,
cleveland

It seems Real Life has reared it's ugly head at our friend Caec, the overlord of Caelum, who has asked me to find a sub for his nation.

I've asked him to play an additional turn if we can't find a replacement before the next hosting. If you know anyone who'd like to take over a solid MA nation that's currently in 3rd place on the Dominion graph, has a healthy gem income, and got one of the 4 corners in a cramped map, please have them post on this thread...first come, first served.

Cheers,
cleveland
