Yes, I just haven't heard any consensus on what people want to do.

We really need a sub for Jim. Even if he stales this turn his position is still great. A newer player would be fine too... he could just unleash the fury on the entire world and we'd still have trouble taking him down.

I vote to pause the game until we get a replacement for Jim. I also vote to increase the turn hosting times at least until we find a replacement, if we don't wind up pausing it.

Either a new sub or extending the turn so it would suit Jim.
Definitely not an AI Sauro.

Hey Guys:

Its a little unusual for players to request a delay for a different player, one that is still involved in the game.

It is often explained that stales are part of the game, and I have seen many other players take advantage of a staling opponent.

It is unfortunate, that this discussion to delay or not to delay may well decide who wins the game. It is my personal opinion that if the game goes 20-25 more turns Sauromatia wins. Delaying the game definitely hurts my chances of winning it.

The roll of the administrator is to grant a players requests for dealing with real world problems. And to deal with players performance that is so bad that it affects the quality of the game overall. Usually this is defined by three stales in a row.

In the interest of sportsmanship, I propose to delay the game 6 hours. In the interim, I (and I suggest others) email Jim and see if he can get his turn in.

If Jim then wishes postphonements, they will be granted, just like for any player. Likewise, if Jim wishes to increase the turn processing time. Jim has logged on today, hopefully he will again.

Surely only sauromatia can hope to stop mictlan, rather than feast on the decaying carcass that is LA Abysia?

Oh, hmm. So all the places with the squiggly lines are the capitals are they? I think all of Sauro's scouts died during the staling so i have very little idea of whats going on, and i've had no PMs from anyone other than mictlan; for all I know I'm at war with everyone BUT mictlan

However seeing what all the high level summons look like is pretty enjoyable but if anyone wants gems to dispel the ritual pls ask. For all the nice items in my closet there was a distinct lack of S boosters so I've had to make em from scratch. Judging from the lack of activity however I get the impression ppl just want this game to be over?

I have the feeling that ChrisP was blood hunting for 10 turns or so in order to cast Astral Corruption with 999 slaves. You only need an S9-S10 caster and 1019 astral gems to have a chance to dispel it. Doable if you have enough clams.

Oh I'm not complaining

just mentioning that yours is the only chance to possibly stop mictlan and perhaps win. I'm indifferent at this stage and was testing out what an archdevil is like as an SC.

Chris has about 1 million forts pumping out highly blessed jaguar warriors so I doubt anyone's going to stop him. BUT THE STREETS WILL RUN RED WITH BLOOD in certain select provinces. I hope for the chance to put a few more armies to the werewolf before this game is up.

LA Abysia out, enjoy the endgame!
