Probably. If my forum reading skills are accurate llamabeast's ISP is not reliable. However, llamaserver is, so your turn will be taken anyway when llamabeast's got time to fix whatever is wrong / the ISP works again (depending of what happens).

" And thus started the war between the winged people and the unholy barbarians of Ulm. Scout reports had reported much, too much from there.

Their revenues were also far greater than those of the great nation of Caelum, or any other for that matter. They had a great army, the barracks to make it even greater, the money to field it, and a very secure homeland. That fight would be hard to win without allies.

However, Kantai, pretender to the throne of Pantokrator, lead by example and not by begging help. His voiced thundered as the orders were given, and soon, the very battlefields would shake under the forces that he controlled. "

I guess freezing winds of mountanis is blowing too strong, my winged adversary. We, Ulm is barbarian nation no more, as we didnt attacked you nation and we didnt shown any agression.

You, who atacked me without even a single word, dare to call us a barbarians? And now, after you realize, that lands you got by sacrificing the very lives of proud winged warriors is barred and useless, and retaliation is inevitable what are you doing? Call for help?

Abysia, if you have a NAP with Caelum, beware - their word are just like wind in their wings and they will turn against any ally as THIS is what i have for proposing NAP to Caelum!

(It's not that important but... RP wise I did not send that message to you, and you don't know my people called you barbarians, unless somehow you read minds )

(The only thing you have is some declaration of war sent by a messenger).

Then again I like to do RP "in-character" and not as a player. Meaning my characters have the informations they have and that I'm not "Rp-ing" as myself playing Caelum (for example, in your text, you are somehow some semi-omniscient player able to read mind, and speaking to me and the player playing Abyssia simultaneously). Now, that kind of interaction is fine too, what troubles me is the mix between both.

That's the moment where I sit back and think I'm not really making myself well understood. For example, my "characters" think
you are barbarians, however, me, as a player, doesn't.


(that said, I need to answer).
As a player, the only think I got to answer is... come on, do you really believe that having more then twice the number of province and income than your neighbouring opponents was going to get unpunished ? It's a "anything goes" diplo game ! I fully expect to be backstabbed if somehow I get to the same position. If you want to know, Abyssia does keep a threateningly high troops near me just for that or whatever plans he's fomenting, so do I, and that's just part of the fun. If he wanted, he could backstab me, and that would just be my fault for not being prepared.

That said, why is LA Ulm PD so damn stupidly strong ? I'm wasting entire armies just mowing through it.

Do we need to turn on some option to make the turns host before the deadline?

I don't understand. The time limit was exceeded today, but the server didn't send the files. Am I missing anything?

Probably because the server was down when the time came. The admin of the game will have to force the turn to run I suppose. And Agartha will stale...again.

... as usual the server seems to be on the blink. Can't they fix it for good?

It's already on :

Next turn due: 02:55 GMT on Sunday July 17th

Hosting interval: 24 hours
Quickhost mode: On
Reminder e-mails: Send 12 hours before hosting
If you click admin, you will have most of the info you need. It's Llamaserver weirdness again. He provides us the server, and obviously, I think his server having this kind of behaviour is not what he wants.
