seriously everyone but argatha has submitted their turn? and argatha is ai? does this mean the ai is set to only submit there turn right at the deadline? wouldn't it make more sense for AI to submit their turns early so we didn't have to wait 12hours extra for them?

it seems like the admin has yet to set them ai? or find replacement? and they are going to stale a 7th time? or is this now fixed?

Aezeal

Excuse me, but I don't see your activity as the administrator. Agartha is still not set to AI, you wanted to make a delay for yourself, but you staled. And now I'm nervous becouse I need to talk to admin about possible delay for myself on turn number 14 and I don't want to end up stale'ing again...

we seem to have a game that is somewhat helter skelter right now.

Nobody's fault as most of us are new and this is a good learning experiance for all of us to watch more closely.

However, while I am one to fight to the last dog (or Giant as it seems)I also am not real thrilled that we have a admin that has staled 5 turns (making it easy for one player), and another player with some exp but staled anyway. I would suggest that we bag this game and start it agian with the same basic core of people and maybe a couple of reliable folks that have the time and desire to play. (Bwaha is one that like to play lots of games)

Sometimes life gets in the way...

That being said ..Kalisa go ahead and attck my force if you win we will ally, if you lose You are hurt bad.

One battle for it all!!!

IF we don't get this together quickly I will just be going thru the motions as it seems the game is unbalanced now.

Any other thoughts that will change my mind?

Well, I do not see any reason to finish the game. All we need is another administrator. Agartha is dead anyway, so person who kills it doesn't get much bonuses, just the same as killing independents.
As for stale'ing - I think there are the same situations in just every game. Everybody has some reasons from time to time to be offline, just look at the "sub wanted" topics in this forum. Me and Aezeal did stale for one turn each becouse we had obstacles not allowing us to make our moves in 24 hours. It is an administrator's duty to listen to player's requests and to react, so a normal administrator would likely move a deadline as we asked and we wouldn't skip our turns.

So, as I said, all we need is a new administrator.

Let it be known that the honorless dogs of Arcoscephale have broken their peace treaty with the nation of Fomoria. A mere two months after agreeing to our offer of alliance, they struck at our lands in a surprise betrayal. Should any wish to punish this infamy, they will have the friendship of the giants of Fomoria.

no need to restart, I don't know why it didn't delay the last turn.. I saw a message it was all good. Wasn't to much of a problem for me really. I don't know if I can AI agratha that easily though but I'll try.
