First Blood - Newbie game - Finished - Rotarr/Nightfall/Sephorin win!

[rotarr]

I just went ahead to see if everything works out for me (nice starting position btw, hope we can continue :P) and it does.

And Caelum sent his turn in as well, lol.

[Sephorin]

I got a crappy starting position. I hope we start over.

Of course, if Tao is having technical difficulties, then I'm all in favor of waiting for him. But if he's stopped communicating...

So I guess we leave the ball in your court, Valerius? If you hear from him and he still can play, then we start over. Or if he's not playing then we find a sub. Hmm. Maybe the person playing Caelum.

Thanks for helping us with this, Valerius.

He was last on the forum under twelve hours ago and his last PM to me wasn't much longer ago than that so I'm hopeful we just need to resolve his problem with the savedgames folder.

No problem. BTW, admining a game is easy - except when things go wrong.

Okay, should we wait another twelve hours, then if we don't hear from Tao, we'll just continue as we are with the mystery Caelum player? Would that be appropriate?

This is the worst part about restarting - someone usually ends up with a worse start position than they had the first time around. But I think we're going to have to do that since, as you noted, the mystery Caelum player has sent in a turn but not responded to my question of whether they are TaoCuathon.

I'll wait a few more minutes, then put the game back at "waiting for pretenders" (and *turn off* the autostart to avoid this happening again).
