Do you hear that LA Ryleh? Pangea is coming after you next!

Are you after kelp forests as well?

I'll probably be unable to play my turn between the 24th of december and the 1st of january. I'll try to find an internet access, but don't be surprised if I stale as I'll have no internet access from now till the 4th of January .

On a similar note, it would be a great help to me if at least one player does not submit their current turn until Monday. The only way I'd miss a turn due to travel is if the next turn hosts tomorrow (Sunday). I know that's unlikely, but still.

From now? I guess you won't be able to find a temporary substitute either, then? (You can send me a message anytime, with your e-mail address and the substitute's e-mail address, and I can make the switch.) I could post a message asking for a substitute, myself, but if you couldn't easily talk to them or me it probably wouldn't work out. Also, turns do come at unexpected times, and with a week-long absence you could miss two instead of one. Could you at least give me an accurate time for when you'll DEFINITELY be back online? If you give me that information, then if a turn deadline happens to come up just before that time, I will delay the turn slightly.

Otherwise, I guess you'll stale.

djo, I'm traveling today myself and it's likely that I'll send in my turn after the time you specify. I'll keep an eye on the situation, anyway.

Would these problems become simpler if I turned off quickhost until a day or two into January? I could even delay the hosting... although it's already pretty well delayed on its own in the normal course of things.

Eek, I just noticed that I'm going to miss the current hosting time. Could you delay hosting for 6 hours? I should be back at my dominions computer by then. Sorry about the delay; I'll try to get the turns in more snappily next time.

Bananadine · #**127** December 23rd, 2008, 08:04 PM

Hm yes that will lighten my own load as well.

Bananadine · #**128** December 23rd, 2008, 08:11 PM

Okay I delayed it. Sorry everybody, Jesus is getting born etc. (You should consider worshiping Freagarthach instead however.)

LDiCesare · #**129** January 4th, 2009, 02:40 PM

Well, I was off till the 4th, i.e. now. I could get one turn in on the 25th, but staled the next one for one day

Take heart, for one day we will all have microchips in our elbows and you will be able to send in your Dominions turn merely by pointing your elbow toward the sky and wishing.

SAY as long as we're here talking, maybe one of you fine people should join my other game as a substitute for EA Ermor, which needs a substitute. Unless you're already in that game. Further details are here: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?p=664144
