Acouchi - MA game for new players (full)

Llamabeast,
Got a message "you have cheated" when starting 1st turn. I thought I didn't need that mod to create my Pretender only to play... What do I do and can I find how my Pretender was changed?

@sansanjuan: You mean WH must be enabled when making the god?

According to the faq it should not matter since it doesn´t affect pretender design...

Looks like we need a restart...

[llamabeast]

Okay guys - third time lucky!

I retrieved Ylvali's fixed 2h file from the LlamaServer backups (the problem was indeed presumably that you previously made your pretender while running CB) and restarted the game using that.

SSJ - You misread the message, it said that Pythium had cheated. You were fine.

Ylvali - Your animated thingy is cool but inordinately distracting. It's a bit much I think.

Everyone - brilliant, we're off again! Please replay your first turns with the new turn file you'll just have received. Apologies to those who'll be playing it for the third time.

[Ylvali]

Thanks Llamabeast, sorry ´bout the inconvenience.

You might be right about my sig, I made it for another fora and it was appropriate there, but here it might be a bit too much. I´ll replace or remove it.

[sansanjuan]

Doh! Thanks for pointing me straight.

There are reasons that newbies get 48 hours on the first turn, we need to learn a few things about the system!

"The first turn has 48 hours on the clock in case of problems, subsequent turns will have 24 hours."

"Next turn due: 00:16 GMT on Sunday February 10th"

The deadline isn't passed so it's a bit early to poke anyone.

I wanted to make sure you knew the game was running and you were involved. I can understand if you are experiencing real life or technical issues.

the quickhost is scheduled in 6 hours though.

Sure is easy to grow impatient... I´ll take the opportunity to make a little presentation of my pretender.

He is a freely interpreted reincarnation of Nero (this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nero)

After the trachery of the senate. Nero, seeing his very closest men turn their backs to him, committed suicide cursing his betrayers. So vast was his anger, and so powerful the curse, that his soul would not disperse and fade but stayed to witness the lives of those he hated. And the slow fall of the great empire he had once ruled (Rome/Ermor).

The decades passed, and when Pythium broke free parts of the old imperial archives were brought along to the new land, including Neros screenplays and poetry.

Short after the Pantokrators disappearence in the middle age Claudia, a young historican decided to dig through the old archives and finds Neros manuscripts. She is moved by his poetry and grand visions and allows herself to daydream herself as Claudia Octavia, Neros stepsister and wife.

Neros deranged and tormented soul confuses her with his long since murdered wife and enters Claudias dreams to proclaim his love.

Their meeting is powerful and devastating. When Nero realizes she is not his beloved wife he enters a state of madness and rage. He reaches into claudias body and exchanges her life force for his own and is born anew into the physical world.

Having mastered death, Neros arrogance and twisted genius grows beyond human proportions. He now seeks godhood to revive his murdered family and reunite the broken empire.
