Was it? Well, I'll keep my eye on the turn submission for the current turn as well.

Hah! Well met indeed C'tis. You have proven yourself a worthy adversary. But we shall meet again.

I must say, this raiding lark is an absolute jaunt when the sparrow is on the other foot.

No, I'm not sure why I used sparrow either.

Also, I looted the body.

I heard that your victory was only due to the movement bug darloth, no?

Lingchih · #5 April 30th, 2009, 09:59 PM

Yes, that was supposed to be three Jarls hitting your cap darloth, not one. But due to the movement bug, two Jarls just sat there and picked their noses.

Nice turn anyway though, to you and all the noobs. You have kicked Big N in the crotch, and bloodied his nose when he bent over. But, you guys know you are only making me mad, right?

What's the movement bug?

namad · #7 April 30th, 2009, 10:12 PM

around 0.1-1.0% of the time a movement order simply doesn't occur generally if the same movement issue is not changed the order will NEVER occur (but giving a different order of some sort clears the bug)

the bug only ever happened to me once ever in a multiplayer game so i don't know as much about it as others

That's sad to hear. I would have liked to see the actual outcome of that, as with just the one jarl, my PD and elephants killed him before my attempt at thugs even got close. For that reason, I wouldn't say the movement bug is the ONLY reason I won... it almost certainly meant I won without losing anything really expensive, true.

You'll probably have better luck next time.

Has anyone discussed a Pro-Am for NvV3? 1 Vet + 1 noob per team, if we have disparate numbers of players signing up then we can do some teams with 3 noobs instead. If team A's 1st player picked first, its second player would pick last. We'd have to figure out where the teams of 3 would pick but you get the idea.

Working with skilled players in the other game I'm in has taught me a lot. Plus, no forum needed, just private messaging on this forum.

the general premise for preponderance1 was that each time would have a skilled and a less skilled player... although it ended up being the case that some teams had two skilled players because there weren't enough people signing up? i'm not totally sure... i definitely remember something zeldor posted in the beginnings of the thread about this...

i'm not sure if zeldor is planning to try and get something like this going for preponderance2 but it would be a bit silly to start starting two games with the same premise at the same time
