Quitting was never a problem for me, I'm fairly certain early mistakes probably already cost me this game. Its just such a small daily time commitment I don't really see the point in quitting, it just feeds the guy who beat you and makes it easier for him to beat others.

Ok, so are we continuing, declaring a winner, or finding a sub for R'lyeh or setting them AI? I have glanced at the turn for R'lyeh, I know Blackguard also looked. I can set them AI and distribute any remaining gems, items to the rest of the players and try to move/maneuver their remaining forces into AI Mictlan or some other out of the way place if you guys want. We can also just let them keep staling, means turns will take the full 48 hours but they will be sitting ducks/defensive only and easier to conquer than if we were to set them AI and have them actively resisting. Your choice.

Ugh, well I'll just set them to AI then. That leaves three players.

I see someone finally dispelled my Nexus, and the Mother Oak as well. Interesting.

Wow, I am amazed at how fast we are running through some of these turns. Now at turn 102. Must be some excitement brewing.

Yes, we've been getting 1.5 or 2 turns a day. It is getting quite interesting.

Dangs.... You guys got slightly lucky on that last turn. I didn't get to do all the things I wanted to. :/

Apparently, even though it says it doesn't upload the .2h file, selecting "Save Game and Quit" still uploads the turn file...

I did about half my turn on my lunch break and then realized that I forgot to hit "Quit without Saving" as usual when I started, so I selected "Save game and Quit" which told me exactly what I wanted to hear... That it saves the turn in its current state but doesn't upload it to the server...

but it lied....

it lied to me.

I wonder... should I report it as a bug or is it a known issue?

Oh well. ^_^

I usually do my turn... then ponder... then adjust... then upload. You missed the ponder and adjust.

...and a Dispel on the Arcane Nexus again eh, and for some reason.... Atlantis' Riches From Beneath got kicked too? I'm wondering if it was a horror or on purpose... Hmmm......

Ok by me, of course.


Also Mr. Ulm... Did you like that battle last turn? You seemed to think you would win in advance (referring to the castle as I built as a "free" castle in your haughty little message), but then you died. :'(

I had to swallow my pride and ask around about Iron Blizzard. The missiles it shoots count as regular missiles, so they can be easily blocked by a shield.

If you hit anything other than "quit without saving" a .2h file will be generated on your system. This .2h file can then be uploaded to the server by your machine when you connect/or are connected to the server (i.e. you forget to hit "exit" to disconnect from the server after receiving your new turn file).

You've done a bad thing Bogarus (by freezing the seas), although it was not unexpected. This has cost me much grief. It is almost tantamount to a declaration of war. But forgiveness can still be yours. Just make right your transgressions by taking down that global and surrender any remaining sea provinces. You know you've no business beneath the waves anyhow. No need to drag me into the war as well.

We should also probably vow to keep the Arcane Nexus down from now on. This is also a bad thing. Lets just slug it out and finish it.

Also, I do have to admit that I was rather intimidated by that force of.... I can't remember exactly what the estimate was, but I was thinking... 900ish?

That was a lot of vampires. I was going to save the turn file, but I grabbed the new one without thinking.

It was spectacular--especially when Pazuzu friendly-fire wasted my Bane Lord with a Thunderstrike. :S

I hope you have something good in this 500 force... or are you just suiciding all of those wolves and thralls for some reason?
