Actually this is what caused the problem. The server stats page was accurate. The reason it showed you missing a turn is because your turned in your turn over 48 hours ago from the last hosting, so it assumes you missed a turn. It can't take into effect that the server was reset.

Unless the reset happens often I'll just let the timer naturally expire from now on unless I hear a big outcry now.

Well, that's pretty crappy. Everyone should know that Manuk (Arcoscephale in this game) does not honor his treaties. After agreeing to a three turn notification NAP he has attacked without warning. Giving him the benefit of the doubt I asked him if he had forgotten we had the agreement and his response was:

"Yeah, I forgot, sorry.
But you didn't answer my request either. So I will stop my advance for 1 more turn but that's it."

FWIW, his request was that I stop my already in progress attack on Machaka. I hate to be the kind of guy who spreads dirt on somebody else, but nobody should negotiate with Manuk in good faith. He has used our NAP to build up a commanding research lead then attacked as soon as I committed my troops elsewhere.

Well, I'm happy about this. Isn't a multi-front war fun? Now that you are being attacked by multiple nations, maybe others will see you as easy pickings and join in, like you promoted to all others against me.

Let's see some cold weather hit Abysia, the peaceful nations of the world should rise up and destroy the evil demonbreds!! Down with their flying leaders, let their flames be extinguised forever!

Now, back to my war against Mictlan.

I have no problem if you want to say anything about me. But at the start you were struggling hard for expansion and I could attack you at anytime then, peace was good for you then.
Attacking Machaka on his back is of vultures. you have no other war so this war will be fair.

Hey man, I just think it's crappy to sign a NAP then break your word. It's not a matter of attacking me at an inconvenient time, its a matter of going back on your word...what's the point of signing the treaty? Had I realized you were not a man of your word and I needed to defend my border with you I would have deployed my troops differently. You took advantage of the fact that I trusted what you promised - that I would have a few turns to prepare for an attack from you.

Isn't that an excellent reason to break a treaty? You kinda answered your own question there. =
