Dolphin - EA game - restarted

[krpeters]

So let's see, last two games I started in a corner, that means this time I'll be smack in the middle of the board, right?

You know what they say, all toasters toast...

I mean, third time's a charm.

I'm in for this as R'Lyeh--just sent my pretender in

Bob_Loblaw, you're probably not aware but just submitting a pretender for a nation already being played overwrites the other player's pretender. In this case you've just overwritten Carlosib (if we have to restart again I'm gonna scream). If you'd like to join a MP game you need to ask in the thread what nations are available, and get an OK from the game host to join (some games have player limits or house rules on what nations/players/etc can play).

Happily my server is cunning, and doesn't let people overwrite pretenders unless they have the same e-mail address, so carlosib's pretender is safe.

However, Bob_Loblaw - you need to check what other nations are in a game before you join. The easiest way to do this for most games is to check the first post, where and I most other hosts list the nations in the game.

I am starting this game in a few hours time. If you get a pretender in for a nation not already taken by then you're very welcome to play. You should be aware though that games generally last several months, and you should expect to be able to play your turn every day. There's not much point playing unless you're happy to make that commitment (and it is bad for other players if someone disappears).

Fear not Baalz - I will try to ensure there is no cause for screaming.

And we're off! Third time lucky I hope.

Mmmm i've just tried to play turn 1 and unfortunately there are messages saying that everybody has cheated...
That's not so bad, the really ugly thing is that my awaken pretender isn't in my capital!
Does this happen to anyone else?
