Also, I'm pretty sure you may restore all treaties because I doubt that new player will start wars once he joins the game.

Greetings everyone, I have taken over the empire of Pythium. Please PM me about any pacts you have with me and I shall honor them.

Also we are in great need of the following items:

ring of regeneration and/or hydra skin armor
dwarven hammer

We can trade gems in favorable terms or forge things for you in return.

Cheers.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Ok. So, last message I see before the boards go down is Ryalla's saying, "OK - let Pythium go AI". So I attack.

And in the meantime konming joins as pythium, (which I have no knowledge of) so I attack someone who was willing to be my ally.

You should have stopped hosting when the boards went down.

Default Dwarven hammers

Ashdod will forge a dwarven hammer for the first person that

a). Naps.
b) Provides 25 earth gems. Death gems may be substituted, up to half.

It was a valiant last stand in Bandar Log. The cornered apes fought with impressive zeal - performing admirably against the assembled Mictlan horde.

As the last few Markatas scampered into the trees, a Rishi could be heard saying "I told you we should have NAPed Ulm, our Tigers would have gone to good use against Mictlan".

Good luck you guys, looks like I got sandwiched between the heavy hitters, look out for Ulm, Mictlan, and R'lyeh, they're all doing quite well.

I only pause the game if I am asked to and there never was any problem with it. It was discussed in this thread that I was looking for a someone to sub johnarryn, later konmig himself replied here and I really see no reason why I should have paused the game and make people wait for nothing.
If you attacked allied nation before it actually became AI controlled, you were way too fast, if you didn't read the forums... What can I do with it?
Also, I believe that this attack won't hamper your relations if you really want to become allies.

Thanks for the game

Man, I read the forums almost constantly - at least 6-7 times a day, and more at night. There was no way to make a request for a delay. There was no way to find out Pythium was being subbed. The boards were down for maintenance! !

Ano, I think if there is a significant change to the game - like a change of player, a nation being set to ai, a change in victory conditions, etc. - that the game should be delayed until everyone knows it.

I'd like to propose that as a standard anyway.

In the end, it will be recorded in the annals of history that exploding markatas were no match for the life sucking aliens from outer space!

Good luck!

Yes, you're right. I forgot about the maintenance.

I don't mind. I just need some criteria to understand that everyone knows. It's an ideal world, IMO. To make this proposition more realistic I may just pause the game for at least 24h in the cases you described, more if forums are unavailable.
