Sloth - LA game with KO and JK - started

Is something happening to Jazzepi? My scouts see suspiciously little movement from Ermor these last few turns. He has been turning in his turn at the last moment for a long time now, so I'm not sure he's stalling, but what I see certainly looks suspicious.

Perhaps you can extend the timer a bit Llamabeast, till we know for sure he's fine? It's not like he's an unimportant bystander atm.

Edit: According to Llamabeast he has been sending his turns in, so perhaps I'm just imagining things. Jazzepi, are you having time management problems, and sending limited turns in (in which case I for one don't mind going to 72-hours schedule or just hold the game on pause a few days to give you time to settle things) or is everything fine?

Yeah, 72 hours would be fine now.

Anyway, I've postponed this turn by 24 hours just in case. If all three of us get our turns in I'll force hosting, but there's no rush.

By the way, I'm going away for two weeks on Friday. Dr P is going to sub for me.

Heh. Welcome back Dr.

Llama gave me the admin password, for while he's away, so if anyone is in need of extensions or the like, feel free to come calling.

I am immediately abusing my powers, and will postpone hosting by 24 hours, as I'm out of town this weekend. (My favorite ex is getting married. Can't miss that, now can I?

)

Ah, that makes my weekend easier (the extension, not your ex getting married.)

Hi, how is the game going?

Amhazair · #7 April 14th, 2008, 07:58 AM

I'm still having fun here.

R'lyeh (me) and Ermor (Jazzepi) are the biggest nations, holding about 90 provinces each. Pythium (Llamabeast, but now being subbed by Dr. P) is smaller, with only ~45 provinces, but he has had the nexus on for a couple of turns now, so he must have the biggest gem income of the three.

What's remarkable is that all the smaller nations have been wiped out. (well, T'ien Chi has one province and one fort left) I have never before seen an endgame where there weren't at least one or two smaller nations surviving tucked away in some corner of the map, trying to influence events a bit, or just trying not to be noticed.

But all of that is just fluff. In the end The Hunger Without Thought will have devoured all opposition, and the population of this world will live in eternall blissfull dreams.

Things just got very intresting. Ermor decided to attack me on the exact same turn I launched my attack on Pythium. And here I was, counting on having at least 3 turns to organize my defences if Ermor decided to intervene. (which I thought quite likely, btw. ) No such luck though, apparently.
