So sorry to hear The Hand fell. I was pleased with their starting possition. So . . . who has them now?

How are they doing?

If you don't mind my asking, of course.

They surrendered to me a few turns ago. Then I surrendered to the Deccan empire. And Deccan I was at war with a lot of people but with you as a new leader you should be able to make peace with them.

To all empires of the Ankle Quadrant,

Given the recent merging of the Ankle-Chompers Empire and Decca, we would like to issue a statement. It is our understanding that the Ankle-Chompers had been embroiled in conflict with other empires at the time that they and our peoples merged. Deccans are not a warlike people, and it is our desire to avoid any furtherance of these conflicts. WE urge all concerned parties (especially the Trithians, the AtomSmashers, and the Tesco Empire) to communicate with us so the we can all maintain the current peace. WE will be contacting each of you seperately...

Yours, Decca

Having been a protectorate of ours and then "freed", your empire is safe from our warships. We extend this trust assuming you will stay free of our attacks on friendly empires of yours. To assist our targets after releasing you from our Protectorate would be the most dishonerable of sins. Yes, I know you are a peace-loving entity but you will need to choose honor instead of prospects...your allies will need to understand if you stand by and not choose sides as well...for you would not be in this position at all had we not given you a stay from certain destruction.

But, we would not have done so had not we believed in the integrity of your empire. Good luck to the Deccan Empire!

We're averaging 6 turns a month (for a 48-hour game). Estimating 30 more turns (at least) for the game to come to some kind of closure, that is nearly half a year.

Have too many people lost interest? Why is this game perpetually 3 days over the time limit? I know people have gone on vacations and such but it's been this way since April.

My turn is long enough to do as it is without having to refresh myself on events everytime I do a turn. Could we make more of an effort to get turns in on time, please?

Agreed. What about auto turns?

I think we should go back to autoturns (and, FWIW, I beleive we'll need more than 30 more turns to come to closure)

thanks,

Alarik
