Default Re: MP Game - Artifact Game - preparing to start..

This game will start at 6pm Pacific Time. I'd like to wait longer but its not fair to put 14 people on hold for 1. This way at least people on east coast usa can look at the first turn before they go to bed.

Default The Artifact Game Begins!

The server is now up. Everyone log in and check your first turn. Make sure you have all your artifacts!

Ummmmm.... so in other news... immediately after starting the game I realized that I did not clip out the TienChi starting code from the server's .map file. This means that TC's artifacts are still on the board in the indy prov wherever thier capital should have been.

I was going to shut down the server and restart but people had already played thier turns (wow!). Additionally, after discussing it with Boron and QM in irc it was decided to just play on and treat that province like a bonus. If you can capture it and manage to kill all the wardens, then you may be able to bag some extra artifacts. Let the search begin!!

uhh yuck - pls i vote to restart - like how much time could it take someone to redo their first turn?

the thing is, it compounds an inbalance - not only do some players get extra expansion, but the chance to hit the jackpot as well.


oh, and whatever happens, good luck all

It doesn't bother me that there are some tricks out there to be had.

Lord knows we can hit the jackpot just by running over our neighbors early.
