Seriously.

Going AI at this point is about the worst thing anyone could do. People make mistakes, and it includes missing their emails. But going AI at this point of a _team_ game is nothing but spoiling the game for the rest of 23 players.

I don't know you and this is the first time I've responded to your posts, but please could you not go AI.

This game has been truly jinxed, it would be a pity that now that technical stuff works it goes down the drain because someone gets angry about email he himself said he ignored.

Group hug?

True, I'm annoyed. But I am not exactly angry either. I have a lot of sympathy for Zeldor and think he has done an admirable job. I just am not wasting any more time on this. These forums suck. That's not my fault. It's also not my fault that I was told the game name had changed and then sent in a pretender to the new game. I wasn't ignoring PreponderanceNew emails ... just the old bugged game Preponderance. If the email heading would have said anything other than Preponderance or in some other way stood out from the many other Preponderance emails I was being flooded with it would have been read and this problem wouldn't have arisen.

I am not doing this to be spiteful or vindictive. Like I said, too much of my time has been wasted on this game already due to seriously flawed forums and messaging system. Whoever designed these forums needs to pull their heads out of their asses. In fact, I am fairly new here, but I have not been involved in a game where the forums didn't **** someone over. I am pretty much giving up on Dom3 MP because of these forums and the lack of any real MP support.

Also, those who say a first turn stale is no big deal have obviously not had much experience playing Jomon.
