At 7:19 I still could not connect to the server, I just checked at 12:09 and the turn had hosted and I had staled. If there was ment to be 9 hours hosting time would that not mean I shoud have had untill at least 2:19 correct?

You are correct RibbonBlue. For your troubles, Mictlan hearby breaks all alliances with Ermor.

No, my point is, since I forgot to put a password, some one is fooling with my turns, as this is not the only time this has happened. Just a question, if I give my orders, then some one else comes and overwrites my orders, but does not give any orders, would it say I have staled next time I play? Cause if so, then some one has defintly been messing up my turns alot.

Ribbon Blue,

If they followed the steps you are talking about I think you would not stale. You would simply do nothing at all that turn. As a matter of fact I do not know how I would get the staled message.

Boron,

what is up with that starspawn Utu? It looks lik he is soloing armies on his own! Amazing. How the heck is he doing that? Amazing.

It's very likely Boron is using assassins to take indi provinces. All the troops run away when there are no leaders left.

Maybe but check the number of kills that Utu has! Amazing. I am wracking my brain here. Maybe he has sufficient research to make a starspawn with the correct paths into a true SC? But it's pretty early. It's pretty cool.

OH,
Now that is a problem. Normally I wouldn't believe our little community of Dominions players would intentionally do something like that. However, since the 'Norfleet' incident, we have to accept that some people will break the game for whatever reason. Hopefully whoever's messing with your turns is a new player and didn't understand the damage. That's bad. Bad bad bad. You should probably go ahead and attack Vanheim with all you've got. No since holding back!

Yeah I put very secure passwords on my pretenders these days.

However Ribbonblue I dont think there is anyway to delete a turn of orders to generate a stale.

Although it was mentioned that there were 7 hours, not 9 until the turn hosting, so perhaps that is what screwed you up.

I mentioned yesterday that the server would be down for an hour. It was back up an hour and 15 minutes later. The clock was set for the time remaining when the game server was taken down.

As far as I know, once someone has logged in for a turn, even if orders were not give the turn is marked as played by that nation. No turn has been forced by the server as of now.

There have been no other reports of "strange" behavior by the server...(such as not be able to log in for more thasn a few minutes, or orders not being carried out. If anyone else has been experiencing difficulties, please, post a message about them. Stalled turns are being watched for any patterns (the server notes them). One nation accounts for 95% of them (for the sake of the game that nation shall be nameless). The remaining nations have only had a few. As a result they have been considered "intentional". Again, any server problems should be posted.
