Thanks for your replies, maybe I'm confused. I did delete the .2h file though. Checking my email I see turn 16 didn't resolve. So I just play turn 15 again and send that in, right?

I am now very confused.

I do not have the password for Lanka, but will send a PM to Veraticus now. As he has not logged in since 10/28, I expect this will be futile.

The way things stand now, we can either continue with Lanka as AI or we can restart. If we restart, we'll need to find new players to replace Arcoscephale and Lanka, and zultor can go back to Helheim.

I realize the restarting option may not be popular, so I'll leave it open to a vote.

If we decide to continue, I am no longer clear what I should do with my current turn files. I submitted a .2h file for turns 15 and 16.

1) what should I do with my current .trn and .2h files?
2) Do I need to resubmit a .2h file for turn 15? Can I just resubmit the same .2h file I have saved in my email to llamaserver?

Since this is a newbie game I don't think we should restart as struggling through this process will probabaly be good for us

This is the first rollback I've been through and am interesting in seeing how it plays out.

As for my situation, I am holding off on resubmitting my turn 15 file setting Helheim to AI until we figure out what is going on. If Lanka is going to be forced to stay AI then why doesn't Stagger Lee simply take over Arcoscephale (hopefully he isn't password protected) and I fight to the death with Helheim?

That's my 2 bits. Please let me know when/if you want me to go AI since as of now I am holding off.

Lanka's pretender was named Staghorn the Blood Druid.

I'd rather continue with one AI nation than restart.

Thanks Allium, but that wasn't it either. I won't sign up for a restart of a newbie game. If you want to switch me to arco I will let zultor know if it is also protected. That position is yours, zultor, if it is available, though. I'd just hate to see you set your own nation AI only to find yourself locked out.

Is there anyone at war besides Helheim and he is a goner anyway...

The question seems to be do we go ahead and redo our turns OR do we just send them in as is and some (as in my case) will act like a stale.

I ask this...is there REALLY any harm this early in redoing the turn since no one is at war, I for the most part am just building so it is just repeating (and hoping not to forget what I was doing). If there is, then lets just get on with it as it is a minor bump in the road for most of us anyway. If we say redo it then lets go ahead and redo it (you have to delete the files in your folder and replae them with the rolled back file, it will show a TRN only, but the 2H file will be there after you do your turn) and try and stay (on our honor...which is the only 'Coins' we have in this game anyway)as close to the origunal move as possible.

The only question I have is do we have Zultor destroy 1 of his forts so we don't hnd it to whoever takes it? I think either way is ok but I am leaning towards letting the person who took the time to fight him have the spoils and both forts.

Again, nobody will stale turn 15, those .2hs are already in. My best advice is for all of you is to empty the game folder. When you rehost, you will get a new turn 16. Put that in the game folder. Play on.
