I almost always want to overwrite my pretender, so I hope you implement an easier method for this soon.

I'm a bit confused. Why would you do that? I'm guessing that you don't want to risk the nation taken while you are creating a pretender, but I would like to know. Makes it easier making the right design.

Its not uncommon for me to create a pretender then immeadiately regret something. And sometimes I will see how the joining is going and want to make changes to prepare for the opponents I will face.

But usually if Im stuck with my first one I can do that. Its a batter option than having overwrites, for now.

I overwrite pretenders because I often change my mind about how I want them to be setup. This is also highly dependent on what opponents I will be facing.

Esben, this is a huge step forward.
Thanks for your continuing efforts to make automated serving available to the Dominions community.

I got a "nagot gick fell" (or whatever) in the Pascentiful game after completing my Last turn, and the game seems to have hung...

Yes, I'm *****ing at Cohen about it right now.

Okay, further diagnostics reveal that the game is broken. It doesn't appear to be related to Mose's server directly: It's one of those nagot-on-hosting errors, like "molesting the dead", or something.

Without the ability to try to host in debug mode to find out what it is, however, it's impossible to diagnose further.

Is anyone casting any unusual globals, in particular, Haunted Forest, which has caused problems in other games?

I've left the game up, but all hosting options have been disabled, so people can try changing their orders around a bit, before we try this again: If anyone is attacking any unusual provinces, you should try cancelling that attack. I've already verified that it seems to have nothing to do with anything I'm doing on my turn.
