It almost looks as the game is waiting on ermors turn (what is bad as ermor is defeated and wont turn) :/

I think if he signs on he will get the "you are defeated message" and thats all.

Yea, I know, I read the thread but is it a bug or a WAD? Unless its been fixed, I consider it just part of the game mechanics. Also are there any rules against exploiting a bug?

I thought it was very, clever...

Still, it won't save me, I reckon I have a few more turns at the most.
It specifically says in the rulebook that non-stealth troops cannot sneak with sneaking commanders. The GUI itself tells you that you are moving - not sneaking. Edi runs the official bug list and its on there. I'm not sure how you rationalize it not being a bug.

It's generally assumed to be at the minimum poor form at the worst cheating to exploit a bug.

With your bug exploit you stopped me from reinforcing or retreating with my main force with lead to the total collapse of my primary army.

Frankly - that's not cool or clever.
Well, the past 6 turns or so I have just been doing my 'duty' to the other players by fighting to the death. I cannot withstand your excellent master enslave strategy and your timing of your attack on Agartha was perfect. In order to balance out any damage I caused you by my use of the move/sneak bug I have set Agartha to AI, giving you a easy time conquering my remaining provinces.

Finally, thanks to Velusion for hosting, he runs a exemplary game.

Agartha/Meglobob over and out.

Well it would have been nice had you given me a little notice, cause as it is you just broke our NAP.

The research of the nation of Arco is very large and their honor is questionable. It is a pity that the nations of the world will allow them to win the Ascension War.

Default Turn Time Extension

As we complete turn 60 I've had a couple people tell me it is taking them along time to do their turns and I can sympathize (and sometimes relate).

So when we reach turn 70 (10 turns from now) we are going to move to a 72 hour turn clock. Hopefully most people can still complete their turns within 48 hours, but I want to give those people that are running a large empire time to manage their affairs properly.

For those who think 72 hours slow, take solace in that I might be starting up a new game soon!

I've gone to computer control. I think someone has been hacking my turn since key commands haven't been happening (I don't have a password on my turn, which was a noob mistake since this is my first MP game). Since I'm losing to the combined might of Arco and the rescued Machaka anyway, this kind of thing wasn't even necessary.

I've sent off my items to Abysia and Caelum. Good game everyone.

You just didn't notice that my earh attack made your Mother of the serpents use all her gems in that assasination and she wasn't able to cast those spells in the real battle.
Foul Vapors? it was against the elemental that she killed.

Actually, the issue that made me notice the hack was that several mages with their troops had been given orders to break siege at the same time and join that battle, and for some reason their orders had been changed. This isn't the first time in this particular game that I've given troops orders only to have different moves be made, things I wasn't even considering (and I'm not talking about battlefield scripting, which we all know is dynamic).

I'm not pointing any fingers or making any accusations, but I am bowing out.
