Good to have you back. However, we are not in a hurry, for this game will propably take few years. Btw, what is the longest PBW game ever? How many turns and how long in real life it has Lasted?

damn i missed another turn

geo's site was down when i tried to upload my turn, and now its past again

(i know i missed 2 turns before this, but i really didn't want to miss this one)

is it unreasonable to ask for the turn over since geo's site was down?

That turn was due long before PBW went down Cirvol and most of us has already done the next turn. I vote play on.

I have no opinion one way or the other.

I'd rather not have to redo a turn. However, I'm not opposed to extending the turn deadline past 48hr for future turns (even though I voted to keep it the same).

Also, isn't ALPU disabled? Ragnarok must have kicked off the turn manually.

Yes. ALPU is disabled. I read from another thread that automatic turns do not work atm, so turn must be made manually. I recall Ragnarok send email to all of us that he will execute turns manually atm.

yes he sent an email out the day before warning everyone that the turn would kick off.

Ciirvol. It is better to ask for an extension before the dead line than to seek a rollback.

I do not mind rolling back if it was do to corrupt player file or site failure.

The turn was kicked off an hour after the deadline.


To me it does not matter if we roll the turn back.

So hows everyone doing??

Me, I have atmosphere's converting, base ships building, resources flowing into my coffers, space yards constructing, etc etc. No contact with anyone yet, but that might change soon...if I decide to open that warp point I was contemplating....would a couple hundred fully trained dreads be enough to hold back any force that tried to invade??

How about you guys?
