mid_Unlucky game on Gandalfs server (started)

For those great nations who know the meaning of this the word has been agreed upon and the following message has been whispered across the land:

"The Shadow March has begun."

Take actions accordingly.

In Mictlan, we have no cities, or sims, or other advanced techmologies. We believe R'lyeh has gone 'round the bend. This is somwhat confusing to us, since our prophecies indicate that R'lyeh should not lose all its marbles until both this age and the next have passed. Perhaps our calendar needs to be revised. Or perhaps it is as simple as a lack of oxygen. Come out into the fresh air and feel the wind in your face, starspawn.

The super alliance claimed by Lanka has proven to be a figment of their imaginations. Now they call all the wicked shadows to come tramp, tramp, tramp. Mictlan laughs to know that Lanka thinks shadows are something to be feared.

On a completely different topic: Niefelheim, the Agarthans you are munching on are somewhat stale. No complaining allowed .

is the server down?

I couldn't get on.

The word of Tuucreepious hath arrived to the Prophets of Abysia. Thus saith His Majesty:

Lanka has been weighed on the balance and has been found wanting. Doth my brother, Mictlan, have a grievance against thee? So does Tuucreepious, Lord of the Flame. I have these three things against thee, O Lanka:

1. Thou hast trampled all over my flowers in my rest areas

2. Thou hast left thine empty banana peels on my sidewalks causing our young maidens to slip and fall.

3. Thou hast left Monkey Doo on my grass wherever thou walkest.

Surely the wrath of The Most High One will be visited upon thee and thy little monklings. Great and small shall fall.

Here endeth the revealing of the word.

So say we all.

Stale or not the Agarthans are powerless. They have few leaders, and they cannot recruit as their caves are under siege. Their forces are impotent and their time in this world is limited regardless of the strategy that they employ. We would just as soon finish them off quickly before they grow more stale.

As for complaining. . . I was just commenting on the strange goings on with the version shift mid-game. I thought it amusing that the battle results had little to do with the battle replay. I would have thought that if some of the other nations were out fighting last month, they would have observed similar quirks. However, it is possible that the battle in question was particularly quirky due to all of the blade wind spells being cast (as this spell was specifically downgraded in the new version).

BTW - I had no problem logging onto the server, so if it was down, it appears to be back up.

The jests of Mictlan's emissary to Niefelheim have been misunderstood. We have sacked him for incompetence, and now search far and wide for a replacement. Said replacement will be sure to use triple smileys, since his jokes are unlikely to be any better.

No problem with Mictlan's ribbing. Just trying to emphasize that there have been some strange incongruities with the battle replays lately.

I had thought the incongruity was due to the version shift mid-game. But I was playing a new blitz today and experience similar oddities (the battle replay had nothing to do with the actual results). I was told that it may be because I am playing on a mac.

I wonder, is there anyone else in our group using a mac? And if so, have they experienced any odd behavior with the battle replay?

Please continue with the antics.

These symptoms have shown up before. A game save (if its not on a host) would help the devs pin it down. But on my server Id suspect its the update catching up.
