I will be leaving the server on Quickhost for the rest of the day. There is no hurry to do your turns if you do not wish to. But if you wish you can stop by and check in on it.

I will be hosting at 12:00 Noon (EST) regardless of how many quickhosts we do today.

Just a word of caution. If the Last nation submits the turn at 11:55 (EST) causing quickhost and then immediately do a new turn, hosting at 12:00 will cause a stale turn for nearly everybody. So if you are hosting at 12:00 it is better to stop quickhosting earlier, so that everybody can check between the end of quickhosting and 12:00 when the scheduled hosting is done.

Unfortunatly there was some confusion and I wasn't able to upload a pretender before the game was started. Have a good game tho, and perhaps I'll see you in the next round

The server will be changed from quickhost to the hosting schedule for the week before 12:00 Noon on Monday. There will be no worries about stale turns as I learned all about them ages ago when I was serving in the past

Again, I apologize Pillin. You have the first seat in any game I host in the future, if you desire it.

Thanks for serving Zen.
Crowded map means lots of action I would assume.
Happy warfare to all!

[General Tacticus]

And in the Spring of the first year of His reign, Arch-Arachn-General Tacticus sent his thought to distants lands, seeking valliant souls to advance His cause.

And it came that He uttered those memorable words :

"O Goodies ! Elephants !"

Which were duly noted in the Divine Scripture for the edification of later generations...

The text, however, was slightly edited a few years later, and came to read :

And the God said :
"Let the Desert bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life"
and from the Desert the great beasts came, and the God named them Elephants, and they served Him and they worshiped Him.

That text was preserved in the Apocryphs of Haulf the apostat. The official Version of the Words of the Arachn make no mention of elephants whatsoever...

The server does not seem to respond...

If it fell asleep, please contribute some information in the "Server-hosted games - machine going to sleep?" thread:
http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...b=5&o=&fpart=1

Server has been reset. Router was down by all accounts. If anyone tried to ping the port, please try to ping other ports and see if there is any response.

I want to know if it is only Dom 2 or the entire computer that was unresponsive.
