Jinxed Frechdachs (RUNNING 72h QH)

Bloody hades. I'll see how it looks after the first turn, but I suspect I'm going to quit playing games with random maps -- too many unplayable positions, too many restarts, and I'm now looking at a probably unplayable position.

Illwinter? It's be _real_ nice if you made sure no one's starting positions too many, or too few, neighbors, given how important the capitol is now. One hint : If a province has too many neighbors and is chosen for a start/capitol, either look again, or reduce the number of neighbors.

And if someone has too few viable neighbors (something like water province start, 2 or 3 water province, land start, 3 or 4 minimum) either throw out the starting positions, or add a connection to somewhere.

This is the first time I've seen a problem with it.. though this is my first game with this many people.

May the best Machaka win

New turn is up, with two stales.

Here we go again ............

Umm... it seems that this is the reason why there were two stales =\

You think Atlantis got _both_ stales?

Bluebird · #6 October 30th, 2006, 01:23 PM

No, Atlantis just staled once. I had times Atlantis to have 48 hours of time (by restarting the server - which I had to do anyway), but obviously it looked like this was not sufficient. Well - all will be fine, I hope, though "Ag" is still missing and there are only 3h left. I will just continue with 24h, one or two stale turns should not kill anybody and I want to keep this game going.

Is it on 24h quickhost? Because, given that most of y'all are on European schedules and I'm working days, that makes it -very- difficult to time when I need to be available to hand in a turn.

*sigh* I should have paid closer attention when signing up. 48h generally gives me plenty of time to adjust and handle turns. 24h, given my schedule, is a bear.
