ok this is very perplexing, and somewhat irritating.

The game is about to host. during the 49 hours since the hosting schedule was changed, Man (ozymandias) has completely dissappeared. He hasn't even checked his turn, or else his turn would have been re-uploaded. If he's had any problem, he certainly hasn't notified anyone or checked this thread.

Basically, it looks like he will stale, and whatever move he originally submitted is lost. However, given the amount of time, he would have staled one, perhaps two, turns anyways.

I'm in a very difficult war w/ him, which will become much less exciting w/out him around to prosecute it. He certainly seemed sure of himself and his situation and not disheartened about the way the war was going.

if anyone has a way to contact him please do so.

thanks

i have his AIM sn, and ive sent him some chit-chat Messages during the past couple days, but he hasnt responded

did he make it in time or did he stale?

no he staled

even though its been 2 1/2 days since he Last submitted a move. hopefully just some temporary event has interfered w/ his playing. I changed one order in my moves that would have led to a large scale battle, since likely he would have moved his army out of that province instead of having me wipe it out. sent my pretender into my backlines instead to retake an indy.

If he hasn't shown up by the end of this turn, I'll find some capable forum veteran to temp sub the turn, and properly prosecute his war w/ me.

Tauren, please continue to try to contact him and find out what's up. Hell, if he can't play for some reason, you could sub him

as to pan, since man was staling I haven't had him set to AI, but I will have him by the end of this turn.

omg Ozymandias got in his turn.

I've set pangaia to AI.

Edit: [censored]. supposedly there's a known bug where if you set someone to AI using the master password, you can recieve a "CD key violation". I now need to have esben delete my .2h files, and I got a forced stale turn

well at least that will level the playing field then with ozzy's stales... hehe

yah, but he only got one stale as well. and at least he deserved one

this bug, otoh, is a real pisser. in fact, i can't submit another move until Esben deletes the .2h files.
