(N)GC4 - Game Story Thread

OOC questions:

1) Is out of game communicaiton (via personal email, etc...) allowed in this game? (ie: is it a house rule, frowned upon, etc...)?

2) Who is running the 3rd republic right now? I thought it was RAndallW, but now it looks like Tesco

These are interrelated questions, since the time delay has led me to mess up and possible I screwed up relations with the 3rd republic, and I wanted to see if I had the option to deal with it out of game or not...

thnaks,

As far as I understand (and followed) the rules, out of game communication is allowed, but not prior to in-game contact.
I don't know about the Republic, doesn't Tesco have too much knowledge about the map?

Hi.
Here's the answers:

All communicateion is allowed by all means after in-game contact.
before no communication regarding the game should be made.

Tesco will run the empire in two weeks while RandallW is on vacation, to keep up the queues and see that it doesn't fall together.
It's something the two of them has agreed upon and as it's such a short time I don't see that it will affect the game too much.
But to be honest, I had forgotten about Tesco made the map..
Do you want to complain or is it ok for 2 weeks?

I'm not gonna stress about Tesco playing them for a few weeks, I was really more concerned about working out some agreements but I was unsure whom to do it with...

thanks,

Alarik

Turn execution failed in the game... bummer.

[Roanon]

Can happen sometimes, when the server is low on memory I guess. If this happens, anyone can try to undo his turn and upload it again, thereby kicking off turn computation again - it usually works on 2nd try.
I just did this, and the game processed without further problems.

Good, thanks R
