Maybe you should have Banned Ermor, too. The fact that everyone will be sort of starving for resources won't affect Ermor, since they have zero population.

Alternatively, you can just accept that certain maps promote certain flavors. After all, wasn't the entire point of this to have a good, clean game, with no wonky house rules?

Ah, but this wouldn't have been House Rules.

This would have been telling the server that Caelum was Impossible Difficulty AI controlled. There's a difference.

If there are no objections, and djtool claims his T'ien C'hi on mosehansen, I'll kick anonymous players tomorrow morning, and start the game off around 11 or noon Eastern time.

Worst case, I'll kick anonymous in the morning, and start on Friday morning / noonish after he's had a chance to reload his pretender.

Is there a possibility that I can slip in as Atlantis since you are kicking off some anonymous players?

Sure, and with that, the game is closed - the Cradle is tight with 10 players.

Or rather - seems someone joined as R'lyeh, and you'd make 11, which is a bit too much for the map. Not to mention the waters would be rather crowded.

Thanks anyways. With R'lyeh in it is too crowded in the sea. Have fun!

The game is started, as of 2 PM EST.

One slight problem - the server wasn't kicking anonymous players properly, so Jotunheim is in the game when it shouldn't be.

Which means, I think, the best I can do is make it AI controlled.

Hello, I have joined the game as Luke. I have never played this game multiplayer before. For some reason every time I try to take my turn the game says it has an error and closes. Could someone please tell me if I am doing something wrong? Sorry
