we have 10 right now, and this is a good number for karan, so unless more people join i probably start game tomorrow sometime.

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.

Ergh. I read every bit of that post except the very Last line,

Quote:

It does need anonymous kicked still, and I've a new Caelum pretender ready to go when I see it's been kicked.

Which really seems to contradict all of the remainder of that post and the one that preceded it, doesn't it?
Only at first glance, of course. That'll teach me to skim.
