Going to need a few extra hours on this one. Ran out of time tonight to get my turn done, and a 17:00 deadline tomorrow isn't too friendly due to the current pain in my life that is called work.

So added 6 hours for myself. Apologies all. Especially Frozen, as I'm sure he's itching to see the benefit of his sparkly new toy asap

An hour to go until hosting, and two turns currently missing. Zeldor has asked me to keep an eye on the deadline as he might not make it, and delay if his turn is missing. Plus no turn yet from Meglobob, which is strange.

So chances are I'll be delaying the game by 12 hours at some point within the next hour (unless the missing turns appear of course, in which case the game will autohost)

Edit: Game delayed 12 hours. Will check again in the morning to see how those missing turns are looking. See little point in letting anyone stale between now and the end.

That was a really really brutal turn... Looks cool on graphs

Ermor proclaims to all that there is no longer any need to horde your non-Astral gems, and indeed actively encourages you all to spend them with gay abandon

As the proceeds are now going to the most worthy of all causes

Ok everyone, I've just thrown a delay on the game to account for Frozen Lama's trip. The current llamasever time deadline is now 03:55 on Monday 26th.

The original intention was that the current turn would host before Frozen Lama went away, so that everyone could work on their turns during the week. But events are afoot, and the big three need to have a chat about whether or not the game will be ending this turn with a concession. And no chance of getting that sorted before the turn was due to host. (and wanted to spare the bigger nations the pain of having to organise possibly redundant turns)

Not 100% clear what's what yet, as it could be that Ermor really are that awesome

or that Atlantis have just kicked all the fight out of Abysia. But will post back once I get some more info and a better idea of what's happening. (since I only became aware of it all myself quiet recently)

@ All

Ok, I am hereby asking for a concession in this game to MA Atlantis/Zeldor.

The nations of EA Abysia and EA Ermor have had a meeting, and both have agreed that the tide from the sea is too difficult to stop, and only precious time, energy, and lives would be lost in a vain attempt to prevent them ruling our land.

So a call goes out to the West, and into the forests, to ask if the Elves and Arachnids have any objections to the God of MA Atlantis ascending to the ranks of non-Cripples?

I have delayed the game by 48 hours in order to have time to hear opinions. Also, if there is to be a concession at this point, please can anyone let me know if they wish the game to continue for any reason. eg. Testing. Or maybe to resolve long running private wars to obtain bragging rights for the sequel

Meglobob · #**357** October 28th, 2009, 05:35 PM

I concede to MA Atlantis/Zeldor.

I wonder who that's referring to.

I concede as well. Congratulations, Zeldor.

Thanks everyone, it was nice playing it, even though I didn't even count on a win when I was subbing into it. Especially with a pathless Kraken as a pretender [but he was really hard to kill, ask Gath and Abysia

].

Here is my turn file, just rename it to .trn, it's not zipped. I will maybe tell more tomorrow, but feel free to ask questions.

Finally, it's over! I'll start by PM'ing all previous/eliminated players if they want to hit the sequel with the same nation. Once I have a response from everyone (or some amount of time has passed without response), I'll start up a thread for the glorious part II, hereby declared to be named as:

"Cripple Fight II: The Lamepire Strikes Back!"

Yeah, it's pretty lame (heh, get it? lame). If someone has better puns to use in the title, please, for the love god, share them!
