Thanks Schmork - I've got my updated, new and more expensive yet more shoddily made, improved pretender in.

How many players are you aiming for?

In my (newbish) opinion, Karan is a good choice with 9 land and 1 water players, which is where it stands right now. Though there seems to still be one player who has yet to upload his pretender.

I note that I am not the only newbie player in the game, a fact for which I am eternally grateful. This way, I hope to Last long enough to enjoy the experience!

Oh, dearie me. Erm, hate to screw this game up for everyone involved, but I think it might be best if we restarted, seeing as we are on turn 1, short a few players, and so on.
It seems my pretender upload didn't quite take, and I'm stick with the "filler" pretender I used to claim the slot, so it wouldn't be taken in the 10-15 minutes I spent creating a more suitable pretender. I could always stick with it but, seeing as it's a Naga chassis without scales or additional magic or dominion, I suppose it'd throw game balance outta whack.
Really unspeakably sorry about this.

Update: Just preempting the irony here, next time I'll be sure to check md5sums before changing pretenders, not just after.

Bah! I take it you haven't caught the Posts (in this thread even) about how you _can't_ overwrite the bloody pretenders? Esben implemented that to keep people from stealing slots.

You _HAVE_ to go anonymous and ask the game creator to kick anonymous players, just like I did.
