I gotta say, for an MP newbie this is like crack... I'm always checking the status page or jumping back in to make a useless tweak. I know its unfounded, but I have a sneaking suspicion the server notification takes like 10 minutes to get sent out. Which is 10 wasted minutes before I can see my turn results!!! Yeah, I need help.
Hmmmmm good point.
Im glad that the status page is being useful. I see many of the other servers coming up with versions also.

But come to think of it, I did put the email notification at the end of the post.sh (after hosting) and with all of the zipping and moving and swapping files it might have gotten abit long. OK Ive moved the email notification to the beginning of post.sh which should get the emails out immeadiately after the turn finishes hosting. They dont get sent to any major ISP mail server for sending. I am my own mail server so Im pretty sure that they do get sent pretty instantly.

Yes, very useful and thanks.

I'm probably on the more rabid edge of turn checking (since I work from home) but thanks anyway!

I dunno Jutetrea. When I AM home, I am the same way. The game surely should be outlawed. At least for married folk.

To beat that addiction, sign on to the Dominions IRC channel and have some blitzes. Then do some MP games. Once you have played a couple, you're developing a more laid back personality about it.

We, the glamour people of Hellheim are almost finished... We do need support as fast as possible. Our lands are rich so if we will be beaten by Mitclan and Cits, they will get a huge amounts of gems... Others will loose and become slaves.. Stop them or they will win... We have plenty (400+) of gems so if we start loosing, we will tranfer them to the strongest nation (doesnt counting Cits or Mitclan of course).

The High Council of Sauromancers are glad that they will not be the recipient of cursed treasures. Those cursed gems would bring ruin upon the strongest of nations, as the world unites against the suddenly overwhelmingly dangerous opponent.

We would, however, gladly take the hen that lays the golden eggs as compensation for the scores of our lizard kin that were slaughtered in the foolish Hellheim rush against the C'tis Capital.

The Nation of Mictlan desires only a small amount of puddlefront property (well, it looks like a lake). C'Tis has borne the brunt of the Helheim assault through many months, so they deserve the land they will be getting. It is a hard fight, battling scores of glamorous heim warriors. C'Tis has done well, and deserves their reward of the Helheim capital.

There is no alliance of C'Tis and Mictlan that threatens the world. We are united in this fight by our common history of conflict with Helheim, though Mictlan chose to pay in land rather than battle Helheim, when first threatened.

That said, Helheim has been an honorable neighbor, and respected our pact once they received payment for their peace. We are sure their remaining warriors will defend their lands valiantly and bravely against our hordes and hordes of militiamen.
