Default Re: Mega Age II -Kingmaker(full) Race selection

LLamabeast has set up the server to accept pretender selections. There are detailed instructions on how to send in your pretender in the 1st post of the thread.

DO NOT use a password. A pw is not needed for Llamaserver, and it prevents the game administrator(me in this case) from setting a race to ai without Llamabeast's intervention.

Since I am playing in the game, I do not personally set races to ai, but i will ask a player not in the game to do so. A game admin. can send a player's turn file to a different email address, but the original player gets an email alerting him that the game admin. has done so. And obviously no game admin. has a valid reason to do so unless that player has stale turned sufficiently to require an involuntary sub or his race be set to ai.

Given the number of games llamaserver is now hosting, it is quite unreasonable to burden Llamabeast with the chore of setting a race to ai when it inevitably needs to be done.

In short, it is inconsiderate to pw protect your pretender.
And llamabeast can bypass your pw in any event, so a certain amount of trust in Llamabeast is required. You are not required to trust anyone else, including game administrators, as they have no access to your turn files.

And having interacted with Llamabeast on various mods, and as an ally in a MP game, my trust in him is absolute.

Sure, the vampire queen is hawt, but she's also an emotional black hole, a real prima donna, a complete (expletive deleted.) She'll suck you dry (I'll be here all night.)

The risen oracle may not be the best looking piece of reanimated tissue, but she's a classy lady, dependable, a good listener and a good time.

There's more to a lady than looks, guys.

Such hatred.

You're just bitter she lost her ethereal beauty before you were able to take advantage of it. And become even more high-maintenance gf in the progress.

Is the due date for pretenders still up in the air depending on the 3.16 patch?

Also, I always assumed that the risen oracle was a male. Yikes!

Thanks for putting up the instructions for sending in pretenders Xietor, I had meant to get round to that but hadn't yet. I have an amendment though - the subject line of your e-mail must be one of "KingMaker_Early", "KingMaker_Mid" or "KingMaker_Late" depending on what age your nation is from.

When are the pretender selections due in? I have a convention this week and I'll be super busy.

There is no due date yet. After the patch has been released
it will be set. Everyone but the 2 players with new races has ample time now to work on their pretenders.

Regrettably, this particular game is full. While there are a few open races, there is only enough room on the map for 61, and they are all taken.

If you are new, the ai will provide you with a challenge, and there are also other mp games that start from time to time.
Good Luck!
