I will not be able to play dominions after january 7th. I will need a replacement substitute. I will post in the appropriate thread to advertise for one.
Sorry.

Maybe someone could tell to Mictlan player that it would be the best for the game and for the other players to put his nation under the IA command. He is about to be eliminated but if we have to wait always till the end of the next turn due it's a waste of time. It's clear that Mictlan is not going to send the turn because he hasn't provinces, troops and anything, only his god (I guess). We can improve the frequency of the turns if players about to be eliminated respect the others and put their nations under the IA before quitting the game.

Mictlan is out. We'll only have to wait on him this turn. After that he'll be gone. The game sends out one last turn, so the player can see his defeat.

It would be nice if he sent the last turn in, but it's only an hour or so at this point.

i wonder if he could take over for me...?

Sorry, I saw that llamaserver still expected a turn from me but with no units, no castles, no provinces, I thought an "empty" orders file might create some problems.
But I saw your posts and just sent one. Sorry about that, it's my first MP ending so I didn't know you still had to send a turn after you were defeated.

To Immaculate : I wonder if it would be ok, from a diplomatic point of view, as I was already in this game before, with allies and ennemies, etc... But if no other "impartial" sub is found, sure, I will do it

Hi. Something very strange has happened to me this turn and I would be interested in knowing if someone else has had similar problems in this turn.

One of my units has mysteriously lost all its magical items (4 items) without any explanation or event that could be related with it. The unit had orders to move one province but now is placed in the same province than the turn before but without the items and they're not in the laboratory either.

Please, all these magical items were very important to me and I want to know if it's possible that something wrong happened with Llamaserver when processing the turn.

BTW, my unit has also lost its research points and its magical paths. WTF???

PD: Yes, something has happened. The name of some of my units has changed mysterously (?????). Please, report if anyone has experimented something similar or strange things (units or armies not moving, not researching, etc.). There're also 2 host messages about a suspicious increase in the income of two nations (it's not the first time I see these messages but what happened to me IS inexplicable).

Possibly one of your immortals dying, maybe of disease, and coming back feebleminded?

Edit:
Or something did go wrong. I got 2 maenads as commanders. Not sure how that happened, probably some kind of unit ID screw up? Which might explain your renames and mysterious unit.

Not sure what to do about it. We could rollback again, but there's no guarantee that'll work.

No, it was an unit summoned a turn before. No problems with old age, no message, no event, no explanation.

I will try to explain myself better. I summoned one unit two turns before. In the last turn the unit summoned was available. I gave them a lot of magical items and I ordered to it to move to an adjacent province. So far so god.

In the last turn I gave orders to summon another unit of the same kind. So in this turn I should have two units: yes. Of the same type/kind: yes. But the unit summoned two turns before and with the magical items has disappeared (I don't find the name of the unit and I didn't rename it, I'm sure because I never rename them).

Well, I open the current turn and check the province where my first summoned unit should be. But it's not there. Ummm, what happened?

I check my nation briefing and find the two units summoned in the previous turns. One is the summoned the last turn but the other is not the unit I had previously. Its name has changed and it hasn't magical paths, no research points and no magical items. Nothing. Who has changed the name of my unit and why it has lost all his items and RP and magical paths?

WTF???
