Never got the extension but really need it!

Please put an extension in to 0500 GMT Tuesday! Unfortunately these turns take longer than the hour they used to and I can't keep up with the pace the game's been going at. If an admin is not around to grant extensions then I'm going to start staling and I don't want that. I want to keep playing but if we can't get more time to do the turns (especially those around weekends) then I'd have to sub (although I haven't heard from the admin lately).

It seems like our admin is awol but our game needs to be on longer turns among other things.

This has the real possibility of ruining the game.

Does anyone have a means of contacting the admin?

Stretch · #4 January 28th, 2012, 01:04 PM

Could we move the game to a turn every 4 days, with everyone just submitting earlier if they can? And tratorix has done a great job with adminning these first 80 (wow!) turns, but if real life is taking over then perhaps we could make Bullock admin? From some other threads in this forum it looks like Bullock is admin in at least one other game and if he agrees to it then hopefully it would not have much increase on his workload...

Yeah sure i don't mind admining it.

I scramble to get a turn together after we get back late from the weekend and barely manage to submit one in time (it wasn't the best turn but took some damn work) and the game says that I submitted a turn and yet none of my units move and no units are recruited. It says that I submitted a turn for turn 80 but no turn was processed; it forced me to stale.

What gives?!

I was happy to sub into this game while it was running effectively but I'm not really interested in doing late game turns for a game that is running off the rails for lack of an admin.

I've noticed no response from other players (especially the admin) to Stretch's post and I can't locate Tratorix -- the IRC folks have no idea either.

The impression I get is this feeling is shared by other players.

I'm ready to throw in the towel on this one.

Bullock · #8 February 1st, 2012, 01:43 PM

Yeah i'm fine with that too...I was thinking to make a similar offer.

Stretch · #9 February 1st, 2012, 06:08 PM

Also fine with it. The game is nowhere close to finishing and turns are taking awhile. It was fun and a little crazy. I definitely learned a lot and it made me think. My pretender killed 3 doom horrors before being brought low by abysias pretender (damn lucky paralyze) and a grendel SC.

No one has mage bane right now. I will send an SC to the arena to take on all comers this turn, and otherwise not submit much of a turn. Good game! You were all fun to play against and conscientous with getting turns in.

I also sent a pm to llamabeast 2 dayys ago to try to get him to switch admin but no luck!
