I'm reasonably certain this game will never end.

Oceania is asking to be kicked out soon, though.

Our waves are impenetrable, our currents strong! Oceania will grow strong, while the pale ones of Agartha stagnate in their caves. Your best years are behind you, and you have nothing to look forward to but death and ruin!

Oceania

Finish this year? Gee, that's pessimistic. You could look at it another way and say that the reason playing is so time-consuming is because we're so close to the end.

I believe that everybody has most of the research at level 9 now for the things that he cares about, so this is late game, yes. But close to the end? I'm really not so sure about that.

Ah, let's reset the timer again.

Default Laptop meltdown

I'm sorry, I have to let the timer stay off a while longer. My notebook has broken down and I am unable to play the game at the moment. Even though a file system check doesn't report any errors, I am unable to boot successfully. I have investigated the problem and the last entry in my /var/log/messages before the system started to fail is an "attempt to access beyond end of device", uh-oh... I hope I'll get my system back running in time, but I'm ill at the moment with a bad cold and I'm rather confined to staying in bed, too. Meh.

Ouch! Get well soon, and I hope you get back online quickly, too. I hope you didn't lose much data... :/

And you were right with this one. Not only Burden of Time, but Astral Corruption now as well... Does those serve Oceania any purpose? I'm asking because those are very self-destructive, I wouldn't cast them myself ever unless I'd be LA Ermor or something. First time I've encountered them in MP gaming, too.

Oceania will never be slaves! We will fight those who would banish us under the waves, with spine and tentacle! And ink! The never-ending supply of wolves of Caelum will soon grow old and die, and Oceania will be paid in full in bones and mixed metaphors! And exclamation marks! Mu ha ha ha ha ha. ha. huh? (burble).

Edit: C'mon, at least mention I cast a simultaneous Gift of Health with my Burden of Time, so lurkers and casual readers will understand that I am merely insane, not suicidal.

I've run a few quick tests and as far as I am aware, neither Gift of Health nor Boots of Youth had any impact on the effect of Burden of Time. So I fear that you are both, sire.
