Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
Why do you keep missing turns, Ribbonblue? If we actually switch to 48h quickhost, would you be able to take your turns?

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
I think I keep missing turns cause of bad timming, which is why I missed half of my last turns.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
Bad timing? What's so difficult about checking a game once, or even twice, a day? If you can't be bothered to do yours turns when the turns only take 1-5 minutes, even after you were told about the issue, what's to indicate you'll ever show the consideration to the other players to take your turns?
I mean - you had the time to post on the forums on other game threads, while you had a couple hours left in which you could've done your turn. Did you? No. Obviously you were thinking about dominions, and had free time, but you continued to ignore taking your turns.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
I think Ribbonblue is relatively new to playing MP. Yes?
Ribbon: Aren't you able to check the status of the game at least once every 24 hours? I commonly check once in the morning and once at night. Are you sharing your computer with someone else, so that it is difficult for you to check in?

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
Heres what I mean by bad timming. Lets say I come home from school at 2:00 on monday. I take my turn(and asumming I was the last) the game hosts. I check before I go to bed at lets say 10:00, if the game has hosted again, I take my turn, if not I check again tomorrow. But on tuesdays I get home at 2:50. So it has already been 24 hours.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
Well it turns out I have been turned to AI. So I guess I am already the first to lose in my 2nd/3rd mp game.

Golly gee. I guess there just wasn't any way for you to ... spend 5 minutes doing the next turn right after you took your turn and it hosted? It's not like the early game requires any huge amount of time or work.
Then you would have had 48 hours to spare before you needed to get the next turn in, and the game would've hosted as soon as all the others did their turns, instead of everyone having to wait for you yet again.
Even if you caused it to host at 2, you say you checked at 10. Any reason you couldn't, didn't, take your turn then?

And incidentally, if you took your turn at 2 and the game hosts - why check again at 10 to see if it's hosted. It ain't gonna host until after you do your next turn and upload it, or until you staled again.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
Okay, I made a fool of myself there, that was badly phrased and it was an example, not what I actuly did, because that would have been retarted. All I know is that several times, I got my turn in close, or missed it. In the first couple turns
I had thought we were on 48, only too be told we are were on 24, and only now to be told we were on 48.
Cainhill, besides missing 6 turns, I do not see what I did no enflame you so much. I think, as a new player, in my first, along with the fareun game, there would be some considiration. Instead all I get is you being sarcastic, and being kicked out of the game with out being given a chance to reform.
Cainhill, you have made this game, my first IP game, a very unenjoyable expeirience for me.
Cainhill, I hope, that when you play with future beginners, you are more considerite of them.
Cainhill, I hope that from this game, you learn, as I have and will.
