Yeah, thanks for the on-the-spot postponements Groundworm, but perhaps it is best if we extend the clock at this point.

Groundworm, I hope you see this in time. I'm sorry about the wait already guys, but I've had a ton of work drop on me recently and am gonna need another 24hrs in order to submit my turn.

Thanks!

Well, if you'd let us take some more of your territory off your hands maybe you wouldn't have this problem.

I just want to quickly say that I now hold six capitals, I'll post more later...but I just wanted to give all of you the heads up ASAP so you can start planning the next three turns. I think you all know this already, but I'll post more details soon.

I dont mean to be rude here but is there a glich where you can win a battle you lost? Ive won a few battles vs Midgard in the last 10 turns but some of them, the latest at one of my besiged castles I still loose the province when I win the battle. What is up with this?

Deadnature · #76 October 18th, 2011, 02:55 AM

Ok so, its six capitals that I control:

Marignon

Jomon

Pythium

My own capital

Ctis

Ulm

I think this needs no confirmation but I'm willing to provide my turn file to a neutral third-party if necessary.

So I guess the clock starts now, does that mean that if no one snatches a capital away from me before we receive "turn file 44" then I win? I assume so...

@Bjarn: no offense but you didn't win those battles (at least not the last one), the battle report is the correct outcome, sometimes there is a bug where the battle you view in the combat screen is not quite what actually happened, but the battle report is always true. In my case anyways it said that I won.

Edit: Also the battles that I watched in the combat screen correctly displayed my victory (but it was damn close

)

Maybe that's an element of the bug; if the battle is really close then some small mixed-up variable in the battle screen can change the outcome, in this case it may have been a morale factor, since the majority of both our armies fled (as I saw it) but but my contingent of crossbowmen stuck around and inflicted enough damage to rout what was left of your army...not sure though...when this is all over you can see my turn file if you want.

What? Did we watch the same battle? Im talking about province 34. You had no troops left and were routed. My army was never routed and I had ~40-50 troops left. And yes the outcome screen says I lost but the battle clearly shows the opposite. Strange how this bug only favors you..

Bjaarn, the battle replay bug is well known. The game composes the battle videos on your computer, not the server. This can lead to situations where the replay shows a completely different outcome from what actually happened. It sucks, but theres really nothing that can be done about it.

Yes, province 34. It's a known bug, look it up. If you want to believe the combat screen instead, that's fine but everyone else sees the fort as being owned by Midgard, so the result is very clear.

This bug doesn't "favor" me at all, it just misrepresents what really happened.

I resent your implication and would like to repeat that I'm willing to submit any and all of my turn files to a third party if I'm being accused of something.

I've had this bug happen to me before too (and I was also disappointed), I tried to politely explain it to you. Then you made your insinuations...
