i respect your decision klatu but you had made a nice catchup i think

and it would have been a nice playfield for you too to try out scs etc.

now aku dispelled my well of misery grrrrrrrrrrrr. and no way to stop his vampire hordes soon grmml

as pickles said we think even we 2 can't beat you

Hey All,

Wow. I never expected so much response to my turning AI!

I do apologize for not informing you in advance (a crazy two days for me and i was/am pulled in 32 directions). I also had no idea the AI was a problem. I really thought it would spice the game up for you all. Consider it a newbie's mistake.

It never occurrred to me about getting a sub.

I am not put out at all.

Again, apologies

"I do apologize for not informing you in advance"

accepted

" Consider it a newbie's mistake."

NP

"It never occurrred to me about getting a sub."

That was not really a serious suggestion.

"I am not put out at all."

Good.

Actually it was a failure to recognise the game position. Someone should have tried to bring you into their alliance.
I had no idea that domninion push was so strong or that end game spells were so powerful & unpleasant.

I am now uncomfortable with my position as I cannot conceivably win so I am kingmaking between the other two which is unfortunate.
I am also attaking Aku atm as I can hurt him while Boron for all his protestations of earmoe weakness seems very hard to hurt.

Here is the reason for Norfleet's leaving.

Enough said.

I haven't time to put the new game up until later this evening, it will probably be 3-4 hours from now.

I'll post the server info then.

Sheap · #6 August 10th, 2004, 02:45 AM

Can someone tell a poor clueless sheap what map this game was being played on? And what the turn generation rule was? (Quickhost? 24h quickhost? 48h quickhost? ...)

I want to make sure I have it properly set up before I put the host information public.

Sheap · #7 August 10th, 2004, 02:57 AM

OK I went through the forum and decided on this:

server: benatar.snurgle.org (be sure of spelling if you can't connect at first)
Port: 2001
Settings: 24h quickhost

If it's wrong (or not working) someone let me know right away

Aku · #8 August 10th, 2004, 03:10 AM

It works just fine and you got it right, its 24hr quickhost. Thank you.

I am leaving Dominions II indefinitely for reasons I will not reiterate. Since I am hosting your game, I complete this task, but I will not be present to receive any complaints or problems regarding people disappearing, or the server going down. Should the server go down, I will probably not notice, and will not be around to have this brought to my attention. In such a case, you will probably have to rule upon a winner based on who survived. If somebody wishes to take over hosting, he should inform me within a day or two, and I will tar.gz all the files and make them available for downloading.

Otherwise, I am gone. Best of luck to you all.

Sheap · #10 August 9th, 2004, 07:14 PM

I'll take over the hosting for this and other games Norfleet was running if no one who is already involved with the game is able/willing to handle it.
