don't want to harsh out a patolixo too much, but the hall of fame place does have me worried. The Baalzian Kraken(eg. the pretender designed in the highly respected Baalz guide) is semi-immortal and able to take out all underwater independants solo. but he has no magic or bless:

if I find out intel on any other pretenders (maybe only from universally visible sources) I'll stick it on here...

Why do I have the feeling patolixo is going to put a Boba Fett on your a$$?

Uh I just now looked at the stalling statistic. Looks like Atlantis stalled 3 turns allready.
Totally missed that, sorry.

So what do we do?

AI or has anyone someone to sub at hand.

This is kind of why I wanted to avoid running something on an external server... if we were doing PBEM, I wouldn't have processed the turn until everyone had turned their files in, and if someone was running late, I'd hassle that person to either get the turn in on time, or tell us right away that they were out. This seems to be a very common problem with server-hosted newbie games... instead of saying, "Sorry, guys, I just don't have the time," players just drop off the face of the earth. Three stalls out of six turns leaves whoever takes over, AI or human, with one hell of a mess.

Did he miss three turns in a row? If so, I say try to contact him, and if he doesn't respond by the end of the day, set him to AI for the time being.
