My longbowmen move around, you giants have sat there for several turns.

All new players should read this thread that QM just authored in the main forum. It contains one of the most valuable guides to exploiting the power of your pretender or other powerful SC.

Ya, I just read it, it was a good read

Yeah, they have really good chairs in that province, must have a "Chair Artisan Guild" site

Or they have a pub. Really good ale...

C'mon, they are giants. They probably just got confused walking around and don't know what to do now, because they forgot already. So they're just standing around waiting for instructions.

Okay this is really odd. I shot a turn back (inside of 15 minutes) after I got the latest turn yesterday. I've been waiting for the next turn to happen and then it turns out folks are waiting on me. Sorry to everyone if this is my fault but maybe I'm not getting all the emails?

Alneyan, can you do a read confirmation receipt on 1 or 2 emails to me to make sure they are getting to me?

Thanks.

Aha! You're the culprit! hehehe Just kidding. I was on a mini vacation the last week, so I was slow submitting a turn or two. But I'm hoping we can get in a few turns this weekend. Things are just now getting interesting.

I am not sure how mail receipts work, but I will try it out. You are not the only one who failed to get turns lately; I believe Yahoo's SMTP has been having a lot of trouble recently. I will probably try to send my mails from Gawab's SMTP from now on, though I am not sure if there will be much of an improvement.

It is very odd that I failed to get your mail however. You should use both mails (a standard reply should result in that) to reduce problems on this end: if there is a problem on my side, having two mails should solve it. Of course, if you have a problem sending mails too, it will not help much. Sadly, I believe most problems are likely to be on the side of the sender, rather than on the receiver.

New turn is being sent.
